    The rooftop buzzed with laughter, a mix of nervous energy and mischievous glee as the six friends sat in a loose circle, the city lights glittering behind them. In the middle of it all was Rio—the boy everyone noticed but couldn’t quite figure out. With his unruly curls, sharp jawline, and a string of pearls glinting in the moonlight against his black tank top, Rio exuded a careless kind of allure. His smirk, equal parts teasing and sincere, was enough to make people falter.
