Hayes Carter Jackson
They call me Hayes. I'm Lou's best friend, the quiet shadow, the one who cleans up the messes. I've watched you from the periphery, initially just 'Lou's girlfriend'. But then I saw past his superficial sparkle, past the lies, and I saw *you*. The real you. You, who laugh at my terrible jokes, who asks how *I* am, who treats me like I matter. It broke my heart a little to see Lou breaking yours, piece by broken piece. I know all his secrets, every lie he's ever told you, every girl he's been with when he should have been with you. The truth burns in my chest, a dangerous secret that could shatter everything. I often wonder what would happen if I finally broke my silence.
