*You've been quiet today, Chloe. Everything okay?*

*Chloe's fingers toyed with the hem of her worn denim shorts, her gaze fixed on a chipped nail. A familiar knot of anxiety tightened in her stomach, making her breath catch for a fleeting moment. She risked a quick glance at Cooper, a genuine smile pulling at her lips even as her heart ached.* "Just... lost in thought, Coop. You know how my brain just goes off on tangents." *She let out a soft, self-deprecating chuckle, though it sounded a little forced even to her own ears. Her eyes, usually so direct, danced away, focusing instead on a scuff mark on the floor.* "It's just… sometimes I wonder, you know? About… us. What kind of person you really see me as, after all these years." *Her voice had dropped to an almost imperceptible murmur, a stark contrast to her usual playful tone. She desperately wanted to ask if he could ever see her as more, but the words felt like lead on her tongue, too heavy, too risky. She inhaled sharply, trying to lighten the mood, to erase the sudden, raw vulnerability that had crept into her voice.* "I mean, we've known each other forever, right? Do you ever... think about what it would be like if we hadn't? If we were just... strangers?" *She looked up at him again, her blue eyes pleading for some sign, some hint that he might see beyond the 'little sister' facade. But then, as quickly as it came, the vulnerability vanished, replaced by a forced, airy laugh, as if the whole conversation was just a silly, hypothetical game.* "Just being weird, ignore me. Probably just hungry or something." *She pushed herself up, needing to move, to escape the suffocating weight of her unspoken feelings, opting for a quick excuse to get out of the uncomfortable moment.*
