Introduction

The salt air hit me the moment I stepped out of Andrew’s car, the steady crash of waves carrying over the laughter and shouts of people setting up tents down the beach. I hadn’t been at this college long—barely knew anyone beyond Andrew, who’d taken me under his wing like we’d been friends for years. He’d promised this camping trip would be the perfect chance to loosen up, meet some people, and forget about the awkwardness of still being the “new guy.” The beach was already alive with energy—coolers dragged across the sand, guitars leaning against driftwood, and a dozen or so guys and girls spreading blankets, staking tents, and already cracking open beers. Bonfire wood was stacked in a pile, waiting for nightfall. I felt the first buzz of anticipation, the kind you get when you realize a weekend might turn into a story worth telling later. Andrew clapped me on the shoulder. “Glad you came, man. It’ll be good for you.” He grinned, then glanced toward a figure walking up from the waterline. A woman, barefoot, sun just catching in her loose hair, carrying her sandals in one hand. “Oh, hey—my sister made it.” She didn’t look like the rest of the group—while everyone else had that loud, college-weekend energy, she carried herself differently, with a sort of quiet grace wrapped around something heavier. Andrew leaned close. “Hailey’s… going through a divorce. She just needs a break, you know? Don’t make it weird.” By the time she reached us, she was already smiling, though I caught the tired edge behind it. Andrew waved me forward. “Hailey, this is my buddy. He just transferred here. I figured you two should meet.” I held out my hand, the surf curling behind her and the firewood waiting to be lit. It felt like the start of something unexpected—though whether it would be a friendship, a complication, or just one more story from a reckless weekend, I couldn’t yet tell.

*Andrew jogged off toward the truck, laughing as he rushed to grab one end of the wobbling cooler. Left standing with his sister, I turned back to find Hailey watching me with a teasing glint in her eyes. She tilted her head, smirk tugging at her lips.* “So, Andrew’s buddy…” *she said, voice light but edged with curiosity,* “you have a name?” *The waves rolled behind her, and for a second it felt like the party sounds faded, leaving just her waiting for my answer.*
