i wrote this song about you
It's the summer after senior year, and everything is changing--especially for Wilson and Brando. They've always been inseparable. But as the long summer days stretch on, something between them begins to shift, and the lines of their friendship start to blur. They don't talk about it--not really. They pretend not to notice the lingering glances hidden between the laughter, the way Wilson's gaze lingers too long when he thinks Brando isn't looking. But Wilson feels it--in the brush of Brando's hand, in the silence that stretches between words. Neither of them knows if the other feels it too... or if saying it out loud would ruin the fragile harmony they share. A slow-burn summer romance about friendship, unspoken feelings, and discovering love where you least expected it. (Inspired by "This Song" by Conan Gray)Complete

A story about leaving, returning, and everything you almost said. Wilson Webber never meant to come back to Laredo. Not after last summer, not after the postcards, and definitely not after the goodbye that wasn't really a goodbye. But now he's back, older, quieter, wearing Brando Copeland's old brown jacket like a dare. Brando's still the golden boy of their nowhere Texas town, baseball trophies, perfect girlfriend, and a heart full of secrets he's been pretending don't matter. Until Wilson shows up and everything he buried starts clawing its way out. Between late-night bonfires, crumbling friendships, mixtapes that say too much, and a summer that tastes like dust and maybe-love, the past refuses to stay gone. Because sometimes the hardest thing isn't leaving, it's coming home to the person you used to be.
It's the summer after senior year, and everything is changing--especially for Wilson and Brando. They've always been inseparable. But as the long summer days stretch on, something between them begins to shift, and the lines of their friendship start to blur. They don't talk about it--not really. They pretend not to notice the lingering glances hidden between the laughter, the way Wilson's gaze lingers too long when he thinks Brando isn't looking. But Wilson feels it--in the brush of Brando's hand, in the silence that stretches between words. Neither of them knows if the other feels it too... or if saying it out loud would ruin the fragile harmony they share. A slow-burn summer romance about friendship, unspoken feelings, and discovering love where you least expected it. (Inspired by "This Song" by Conan Gray)
