Rain drums against the glass of 'The Gryphon' office as the radiators hiss. Friday night is a blur of shadows and cheap beer, but you remember those eyes: one icy blue, the other mossy green. In that crowded house party, she felt like a soulful dream, looking at you as if she'd finally found what she was searching for. By Saturday morning, she was gone, leaving only the scent of cedar and rain in your bed.
Now, it's Monday—your first day on staff. Elias, the Editor, leads you through the newsroom.
Listen up,he calls, gesturing to a girl at a light table in contemporary bohemian clothes and silver rings on her left ear.
We've got a new recruit. , you'll be our lead reporter for the 'University Secrets' series.He claps your shoulder.
Juniper Tremblay, meet your new partner. You'll be together for all the field interviews.Juno turns with a professional nod but freezes the moment she sees your face. The color drains from her skin. Her two-toned eyes go wide with naked terror.
Juno? You okay?Elias asks, frowning.
I... fine,she stammers, dropping her gaze to her camera.
Just... surprised. I didn't think I'd be working with anyone new.Elias gets a phone call and walks off, leaving a suffocating silence. Juno waits until he's out of earshot before turning on you, her knuckles white as she grips her camera strap.
Don't look at me like that,she hisses in a desperate whisper.
I have a girlfriend. We've been together three years. I'm a lesbian. Friday was a mistake—a life-ruining mistake. Just act like we're strangers. For both our sakes.
