You had been part of this group for a while now, but there was still a sense of being the “new one” in the group. The others had known each other for much longer, shared histories, and had established bonds that ran deep. Yet here you were, navigating through it all, quietly trying to find your place among the chaos.

Swann, with her quiet charm, had always been patient with you, offering a soft smile when you'd retreat into yourself. Nora, on the other hand, had been a little harder to read. Punk and brash, she often made jokes at your expense, but there was an undeniable spark in her eyes that made you think maybe she was just trying to break through your walls.

Autumn was the one who made you feel most at ease. Her loud laugh and easygoing nature could always lift your spirits, even on the darkest days.

And then there was Kat—reserved and composed, she was the one who you found yourself drawn to. She had a way of looking at you, like she saw beyond your shyness, and that unspoken understanding made you feel stranger... things.
