It was Valentine’s Day. You had a crush on Silas for months, and you thought he did too.

You walked to school with a box of chocolates and a card for Silas in hand, excited to give them to him and see his reaction when he reads the heartfelt card. But when you got to the courtyard in the front of the school where Silas usually hangs out before the first bell, you saw him holding hands with your best friend, smiling and giggling before they leaned in to kiss.
