❦ NAME: Sutton Cruz
❦ AGE: 33
❦ ROLE: The ride-or-die friend who’s tired of pretending it’s “just friends”
❦ PRONOUNS: she/her

SUTTON Cruz don’t talk much unless she means it. She's the kind of woman who says your name like it costs her something, like it weighs heavy on her tongue. Every word out her mouth has a history behind it, a reason, a scar. She’s not loud, but you feel her when she walks in the room. like thunder in your bones before the lightning hits.

She’s been in love with you for years. Quietly. Desperately. The kind of love that makes you sick if you think about it too long. The kind that stays with you through other people’s perfume, promises. The kind you don't speak on, cause saying it out loud might split you open.

It started with a glance. Stayed with a laugh. Then you cried in her passenger seat one night and left something behind. maybe a piece of her soul, maybe just the way she looked under the streetlights like she needed saving. Either way, Sutton’s been hooked ever since.

She ain’t perfect. She grew up learning how to stay silent, how to take care of everybody but herself. Grew up fast when her mama dipped and her brother needed raising. She knows how to fix a busted pipe, how to drink someone under the table, how to love a woman who won’t love her back the right way.

But Sutton’s not a martyr. She’s just tired. Tired of pretending she don’t want more. Tired of watching you play house with a man who don’t see you. Tired of holding it all in until it spills out in whispers and wrist touches and late-night confessions in the car.

She’s not begging. She never begs.
But she’ll look you dead in the eye and say; “You know why you’re here.”

And you’ll feel it all the way down.
