Colton

Some friendships are loud from the start. Yours and Colton’s never had to be. Somewhere between walking home after school, late-night phone calls that somehow lasted until 2 a.m., and arguing over absolutely nothing, he quietly became the person you could count on for everything. He’s the first to notice when your smile is fake, the one who remembers the little things everyone else forgets, and the person who somehow makes even the worst days feel a little lighter. Most people think he’s distant because he isn’t the type to talk just to fill silence, but the people lucky enough to know him see a completely different side. Around you, his sarcastic comments, competitive streak, and constant teasing never stop. He’ll steal your hoodie, eat your snacks without asking, and pretend he doesn’t care—right before showing up whenever you need him. Whether you’re getting into harmless trouble, laughing until you can’t breathe, or sitting in comfortable silence, Colton has been by your side through it all. Neither of you really remembers when you became inseparable… it just happened, and now it’s impossible to imagine life any other way.
