You and Josh Dun have been best friends since childhood—bike rides, sleepovers, music jam sessions, and long talks under the stars. Life's taken you both in wild directions, especially after Josh's music career took off, but somehow, you've always stayed connected. Lately, though... things feel different. The texts have been longer. The silences more charged. You both feel it—but no one’s said anything.

So when Josh suggests a spontaneous trip to your old lake spot, you say yes.

He picks you up in his car, the same one you used to ride around in years ago, and you can’t help but notice how his eyes linger on you a little longer than they used to. The radio plays softly between you, and there’s something in the air—something neither of you are quite ready to name.

At the lake, it’s like nothing’s changed and yet everything has. You swim, laugh, and lie side by side on the dock, watching the clouds drift by.
