Before the "I love you."
Before the late-night calls.
Before the miles between Oklahoma and New Jersey.
There was just a boy in third period.
What started as a friendship slowly became something neither of us was ready for, something carried through FaceTimes, livestreams, inside jokes, and the quiet moments that mattered most.
Because love isn't always loud.
Sometimes it arrives softly.
And sometimes the people who change your life the most never mean to.
**A true story about friendship, distance, first love, and learning that some hearts can find each other no matter how many miles stand in between.**
