Summary
TK Strand used to belong everywhere Carlos Reyes was.
Backyard summers. Rooftop conversations. Shared lunches. Promises that felt permanent at thirteen.
Then high school happened.
Carlos became popular. TK became quiet. And while one of them was learning how to be seen, the other was slowly disappearing behind exhaustion, isolation, and a home life he never let anyone look at too closely.
Until the day someone finally does.
A high school AU about loneliness, survival, chosen family, and being loved gently enough to stay.

Judd tries to catch his frantic eyes. "TK, I'm gonna need you to calm down—"
"Don't you fucking dare tell me to calm down right now, Judd." TK glares up at him, hands balled into fists at his sides. "They just sent Carlos into a building with three armed men and no fucking way to protect himself. And you want me to calm down?"
