She was pretty without trying.
Not loud. Not thirsty for attention.
Just cool.
A small circle. Chosen people.
The kind of girl everyone watched but never really knew.
And him?
Tall. Hispanic. Masc.
Quiet but not to be messed with. Hoodies, scraped knuckles, calm voice.
The type teachers side-eye and girls whisper about.
Dominant without raising his voice.
Sweet only when it came to her.
They weren't supposed to feel like this.
But they always had.
