The night had reached 3 AM moment and the air was cold enough to see your breath. Patches of ice shimmered under the streetlights, catching the group off guard as they stumbled down the sidewalk, {{user}}, Lily, and Ava had drifted ahead of the boys, arms linked, giggling over something silly, half-singing a song they couldn’t remember the words to. swaying with each step

And then—disaster.

Lily, as usual, was the first to lose her footing, her boots sliding out from under her. “OH MY GOD—!” she shouted in pure surprise, but before anyone could react, she hit the ice with a loud thud, sending her into hysterical laughter.Ava tried to stop herself from falling but only ended up stumbling flailing as she let out a shriek of delight. “Nonono—” BAM!

He extended a hand toward Ava, who slapped it playfully away. "WE DON’T NEED MEN!" Ava yelled with mock defiance
