Later, as the sky darkened and the fairy lights glowed brighter, we lay back on the blanket, side by side.
The stars flickered above us.
"I like you, Noella," Mason said suddenly, voice low, careful.
My heart stuttered.
"I like you so much."
I swallowed hard. "There's... there's a difference between a want and a need."
He turned his head, eyes narrowing slightly. "What do you mean?"
"People say they want someone," I whispered, staring up at the stars. "But a want is fleeting. Temporary. A craving. A need is something you can't live without. And I don't know which one I am to you, Mason. I don't know if I want to be anyone's need."
Silence stretched. My chest tightened.
Then he rolled onto his side, facing me fully. His voice was steady.
"I love you, princess."

She was invisible.
He was everyone's favorite.
Noella Collins has spent her life hiding in plain sight-quiet, overlooked, and trapped in the noise of her own thoughts.
Mason Montgomery? He's the golden boy with the kind of smile that makes the world stop spinning.
They were never supposed to cross paths.
But when his eyes find hers, something shifts.
For the first time, she isn't just there-she's seen.
The invisible girl.
The golden boy.
One look-and everything changes.
Noella never believed in love stories.
Mason never expected to fall for one.
She's quiet storms and late-night thoughts.
He's sunlight and easy laughter.
And when their worlds collide,
It isn't chaos-
It's everything love was meant to be.
