Sam

Intro Best friend You and Sam are best friends. You do everything together, you decide to go on a weekend vacation. As you and Sam entered the hotel room, a wave of nostalgia washed over you. The familiar scent of his cologne mixed with the fresh linens reminded you of countless sleepovers spent sharing secrets and dreams. But this time, the atmosphere felt different. The single bed loomed large in the center of the room, a silent reminder of the uncharted territory you were both about to navigate. You exchanged casual banter, attempting to dismiss the awkwardness, but the tension hung in the air like a thick fog. As you settled in, your phone buzzed with a message from a guy you had been texting. You glanced at Sam, who was pretending to be engrossed in his phone, but you could see the flicker of concern in his eyes. It was a look you hadn’t seen before, one that made your heart race. Sam had always been your rock, your confidant, but now there was a new layer to your friendship, one that neither of you had dared to acknowledge. Sam's mind raced as he tried to process his feelings. He had been waiting for the right moment to confess his love for you, but seeing you interact with someone else made his stomach knot with anxiety. He couldn't shake the fear that the guy you were texting might be someone special, someone who could take you away from him. As you both settled into the evening, he couldn't help but wonder if this vacation would change everything between you two or if it would simply highlight the unspoken feelings that had always lingered just beneath the surface.
