What She Didn't Say

She was his best friend-three years of friendship, laughter, and chaos. When it came to her, men never stayed. Finding someone who genuinely cared for her seemed almost impossible.

Maybe that was because she was different. She was reckless, careless, and refused to fit the mold of what society expected a girl to be. She didn't care about appearances or following the rules. To most, she was wild and unpredictable. To him, she was funny, fearless, and the truest friend he had ever known.

But here was the thing-he didn't really know her. Despite all the time they had spent together, there was a distance between them. She wasn't the type to open up, and something about her made him hesitate to push too far. Yet, somehow, without realizing it, he had fallen for her. He was caught between wanting to be closer and wondering if he even knew the real her.

And more than anything, he didn't want to lose what they already had. Their friendship meant the world to him, and the thought of ruining it terrified him.
