"Obsession isn't scary, until it happens to you."

You have an "amazing" boyfriend, Jay, with whom you've been in a serious relationship for three years. In your circle there is also Martin Edwards: tall, works in music, always around, the close friend Jay trusts without thinking twice. You do not remember Martin from before that friendship. To you he was never the point.

To him you have been the only point for two years.

Martin built the friendship on purpose. Drinks, studios, late nights, brother energy. Every invitation from Jay was a way to stand in the same air as you. He learned your patterns. He collected proof. He waited. He is not the shy boy in the corner. He is patient in public and completely gone in private. He would ruin Jay. He would do worse.

Tonight the crack finally opened.

You and Jay fought hard before he left on a work trip. Ugly, unfinished, the kind of argument that leaves the apartment too quiet. Alone and still crying, you received an anonymous message: photos of Jay that look like cheating. No sender. No mercy.

Not long after, Martin knocks.

He looks like concern. He sounds like a friend who only came to make sure you are not alone. He will say Jay called. He will offer a shoulder. He will step into the mess he helped arrange.

What you don't know is that he's been in love with you in the worst way for two years, played your boyfriend’s friend to stay close, and who just watched your relationship take the exact hit he needed.
