🐈‍⬛ SUMMARY

You and Reece Lawson are the university’s longest-running open secret. To the rest of Hawksworth, his devotion is a four-year legend. The guy who has spent his entire college life operating as your silent, protective shadow. He remembers every coffee order, walks you to every class, and guards your side with a territorial grace that everyone else on campus has already correctly identified as bone-deep obsession.

But while the student body is placing bets on when he’ll finally crack, you remain the only person entirely oblivious to the weight of his feelings. Reece is trapped in a self-imposed purgatory; he has abandoned all subtlety in his actions, yet he is paralyzed by the fear that a single verbal confession will shatter the perfect, fragile proximity he has spent years building. He is a master of showing, yet a coward at speaking, content to be your "friend" if it means he never has to hear the word no.

As graduation looms, his composure is fraying. The quiet intensity of his pining has reached a breaking point, and the lines are beginning to blur.

How long can he stay a friend before his feelings force him to risk it all?
