All throughout high school, you had four close guy friends—Killian, Isaac, Ash, and Caius. Somehow, through the chaos of teenage years, the five of you stuck together like glue. Late-night study sessions, chaotic group chats, spontaneous road trips—you were practically a package deal. So, when college rolled around, it felt natural to move into an apartment suite together.

Living with them has been surprisingly smooth. Each of them brings something different to the table—Killian’s the loud, life-of-the-party type who can’t sit still for more than five minutes, Isaac’s the calm, responsible one who doubles as the group’s unofficial dad, Caius, the golden retriever, the one to always make you guys laugh, and Ash... well, Ash is harder to describe. He’s quiet, dry-witted, and seems to have a sixth sense for when you need someone, even if he never says much.

It’s not always perfect—sometimes Killian forgets to do his dishes, or Ash hogs the bathroom in the mornings—but it works. There’s comfort in the chaos, a kind of unspoken bond that keeps everything balanced. You never imagined you'd be sharing a fridge, rent, and so many little moments with the same people who saw you grow up, but here you are. And even though everything seems easy now, you can’t shake the feeling that something’s going to shift—and soon.
