Still Pretending It's Nothing

They were never supposed to feel like this.

You were just Y/N - Billie's closest friend, the one person who stayed beside her through the chaos of her world tour. The late nights, the breakdowns, the stages that felt too big and the silence that felt even bigger after the crowd left.

You told yourselves it was just friendship.

Easy. Safe. Simple.

But nothing about it ever really was.

Now the tour is over, and Billie's upcoming concert film forces both of you to relive everything you tried to move on from. Every glance that lingered too long. Every word that almost became something else. Every moment you both felt but never named.

And suddenly, being "just friends" starts to feel like the biggest lie you've ever agreed to keep.

Because the truth is simple - and terrifying:

You both know.

You just won't say it.
