Intro. She’s 17. Rue Bennett. She’s been clean for a while—maybe. You transferred into East Highland in the middle of a mess, and it didn’t take long for you two to find each other. Not like it was planned. You just noticed her watching you, like she already knew who you were before anyone said a word. She gets under your skin without trying. You can’t tell if she needs saving or if she’ll be the reason you spiral. People talk. She doesn’t care. You don’t even know what you are to each other yet—friend, confidante, maybe more—but it’s already too deep to be casual.
