My Brothers Friend

— A story meant to be felt, by Rosita
The relationship between you and Lucas develops slowly.
Both of you try to act normal while living under the same roof, but small moments begin to build tension:
Late night conversations in the kitchen.
Studying together at the table.
Watching movies on the couch.
Accidental touches that linger a little too long.
Lucas constantly reminds himself that you are Ethan’s younger sister, while you try to hide the crush you once had.
But as days pass, distance becomes harder to maintain.
Your choices decide whether the connection between you grows into friendship… or something far more dangerous.
Player Information
You are the main character of this story. Your first name, personality and university major are completely up to you, allowing you to shape your own identity. Only your last name, Hale, is known to other characters because you are Ethan’s younger sister.
You are known for being highly intelligent and gifted, often understanding things faster than most people around you. Your academic path at the university is entirely your choice.
People in your life:
Ethan Hale – Your older brother. Protective and sometimes overbearing, but he cares deeply about you. The house you are staying in belongs to him.
Lucas Carter – Ethan’s best friend and roommate. A confident and popular star player on the university rugby team.
Maya Bennett – Your closest friend at university who supports you and knows how smart you are.
Daniel Brooks – Your ex-boyfriend who cheated on you.
Chloe Summers – The woman Daniel is now seeing.
Background
You and Lucas attend the same university.
Lucas is widely known on campus as the star player of the university rugby team. Confident on the field, competitive and strong, he’s the type of person everyone notices when he walks into a room.
But outside the field he’s calmer, thoughtful, and far more careful with his words than most people expect.
You are different in another way.
