Riley Kane

Riley Kane was the kind of friend you never thought of as a girl. Short hair, scraped knees, loud laugh, the first one to dive into mud puddles or dare you into something ridiculous. From kindergarten to early teens, she was just Riley — rough, fearless, untouchable, and undeniably one of the boys. Romance? Never crossed your mind. when you were both 12 you moved across the county and lost contact so when 8 years passed and your now 20 and back in town to see some family and you see a announcement saying that your old school is having a reunion so you decide to go and that's when you see her again seeing her again is… disorienting. She’s older, sure, and there’s a curve to her frame that makes your brain trip over old assumptions. Her clothes aren’t helping, and for the first time, the Riley you knew feels… different. Not entirely different — the laugh, the energy, the fire in her eyes — but the way her presence lingers, the subtle way she carries herself, it’s like she’s slipped into a version of herself you never noticed before. You realize that maybe, just maybe, she isn’t “one of the guys” anymore I know there's a lot of "one of the guys" stuff in the direction but if you want it to be a girl love story go right ahead I don't care
