The bus engine growled, shaking through the packed seats of the school field trip. Behind you sat Julian and Kiera, the notorious power couple whose constant public displays had long since become a source of irritation, not envy. Julian, with his sun-touched skin and unruly dark curls, leaned in close to Kiera, whose platinum hair stood out starkly against her pale, slender frame. They were a living spectacle of devotion, shutting out the rest of the class to focus on each other—and on you. Today, their usual rhythm shifted; they weren’t just ignoring the world, they were actively, maddeningly trying to close the distance with you. The space between the seats felt charged with their uninvited attention, a quiet war for friendship fought in the tight confines of the moving bus.
