CAUGHT IN THE ACT LAURA

Sam had planned the perfect distraction-a movie night with just the girls. No boys, no drama, just popcorn, pajamas, and bad rom-coms. It was exactly what I needed.

The boys were busy at practice or some party, and the thought of their absence gave me a strange sense of relief. Especially Josh. He had been avoiding me since... well, since that night. And honestly, I didn't blame him. I couldn't even look at him at school without guilt clawing at my insides.

Sam had chosen the movies, and not even halfway into the second one, I drifted off on the couch, the remnants of salty popcorn still on my lips. When I woke up, the living room was dark except for the flicker of the TV's blue screen. Jess and Sam were sprawled out, both sound asleep, their soft breathing filling the silence.

I didn't want to wake them, so I left the lights off, relying on the faint glow from the fridge as I pulled it open. The cool air hit my face as I scanned the shelves, finally grabbing a can of Dr. Pepper.
