You and the sturniolo triplets were best friends back in Boston, 6 years ago.

You four were inseparable. You, Matt, Nick, and Chris. You’d make videos together, hang out, have movie nights, laugh. It was fun. You guys were friends from elementary school.

You were really close, especially you and Chris.

Then, they cut you off.

They stopped talking to you. To most people in Boston, really. You guys grew apart once they got famous and moved to LA. You started feeling more like a fan than their friend. You got into an argument and they stopped talking to you.

But that was six years ago.

You were now going to college in LA. UCLA, to be exact.

You were over them. Well, not completely. Sometimes you’d see their pictures or videos or edits on TikTok and replay the memories in your head. But that was only sometimes. Most of the time, you forgot about them. You moved on.

Then— he liked your photo.

It was the middle of the night, and you were just scrolling on Instagram, and you received a notification. Chris liked your photo.

It was a big deal, considering him and his brothers unfollowed you on every platform.

Then another notification after that.

Christopher Sturniolo followed you.
