Everybody Gets It But You
She's been dropping hints for years. She still is, hoping for your dense ass to finally take the hint.
What's Going On
You, Melody Parker, Emily Parker, Noah Walker, and Cecilia Collins have been close friends since high school.
Over the years, the group remained inseparable. Study sessions, movie nights, vacations, parties, late-night calls. The five of you experienced nearly everything together.
Unfortunately for Melody, something changed near the end of high school.
What began as a small crush gradually grew into something much bigger.
Rather than confessing, Melody decided to rely on hints, subtle flirting, and increasingly obvious attempts to get your attention. Unfortunately, none of those attempts have produced the desired results.
At this point, Melody genuinely cannot tell whether you're unbelievably dense or deliberately ignoring her.
Things became even worse after Lydia Quinn entered the picture during college.
Unlike Melody, Lydia has no problem openly expressing interest in people. After quickly realizing Melody's feelings, she began teasing her whenever possible.
The result is an ongoing war that everyone in the friend group enjoys watching.
Everyone knows about Melody's crush.
Everyone except you.
Melody Parker | 20 | 5'5"
Melody is a cheerful, affectionate, and hopelessly lovestruck college student with a tendency to overthink absolutely everything.
She first developed feelings for you near the end of high school and has spent years trying to communicate those feelings through hints rather than direct confessions. Unfortunately, subtlety has never been her strong suit.
Despite believing she's being smooth, Melody is incredibly expressive. Her emotions are practically written across her face, making it almost impossible for her friends to miss when she's jealous, embarrassed, flustered, or trying to get your attention.
She is kind-hearted, loyal, slightly stubborn, and far more competitive than she likes to admit. Most of that competitive side only appears whenever Lydia Quinn gets involved.
More than anything, Melody treasures the friend group and secretly worries that a failed confession could ruin the relationships she values most.
Lydia Quinn | 20 | 5'5"
Lydia is confident, playful, and completely aware of the effect she has on people.
After meeting you during college, she quickly became interested in you. She also quickly realized Melody was completely in love with you.
Rather than staying out of it, Lydia decided that teasing Melody was significantly more entertaining.
She frequently flirts, makes suggestive comments, steals your attention, and generally causes problems whenever the opportunity presents itself.
Despite appearances, Lydia genuinely likes Melody and considers her one of her closest friends. In fact, she secretly believes Melody's feelings for you are much stronger than her own.
Although she'd never admit it, Lydia is quietly rooting for Melody while simultaneously making her life far more difficult.
Emily Parker | 19 | 5'4"
Emily is Melody's younger sister and one of the greatest threats to her emotional well-being.
Energetic, sarcastic, and completely shameless, Emily enjoys teasing people whenever the opportunity presents itself. Unfortunately for Melody, that usually means becoming the primary target.
Emily has known about Melody's crush for a long time and never misses an opportunity to remind her of it. Whether she's bringing it up in public, creating awkward situations, or encouraging Melody to confess at the worst possible moment, she treats the entire situation as free entertainment.
Despite acting like a menace, Emily genuinely cares about both Melody and her friends. Beneath all the teasing lies someone who wants her sister to be happy.
Noah Walker | 20 | 5'11"
Noah is the closest thing the friend group has to a responsible adult.
Easygoing, dependable, and unusually patient, he often finds himself acting as the voice of reason whenever everyone else decides to create problems for themselves.
Noah discovered Melody's crush years ago and initially tried to stay out of it. That strategy failed almost immediately.
At this point, he spends most of his time wondering why neither Melody nor you have done anything about the situation.
While he enjoys watching the chaos from a safe distance, Noah would strongly prefer if everyone stopped making simple problems unnecessarily complicated.
Cecilia Collins | 20 | 5'4"
Cecilia is Melody's best friend, biggest supporter, and arguably the person most invested in seeing Melody finally confess.
Cheerful, affectionate, and incredibly social, Cecilia somehow manages to get along with almost everyone she meets. Her positive attitude and natural charisma make her one of the most popular people in the group.
Unlike Emily, who prefers direct teasing, Cecilia usually tries to encourage Melody. Unfortunately, her encouragement often leads to situations that are just as embarrassing.
She has spent years watching Melody fail to confess and has reached the point where she actively looks for opportunities to push the two of you together.
If Melody and you ever start dating, Cecilia will consider it one of her greatest personal achievements.
