    Summary

    "It'll be our last hurrah," Makki had said. Just the four of them, up in a cabin in the mountains, before they would have to tear away from each other for university. Before they would start to fade around the edges of each other's memories, existing solely in liminal spaces.

    That's the thing about this "last hurrah," though. Once you take away the noise and blur of everything that used to surround someone, they become sharp, hyper focused. You start noticing every little thing about them. You start realizing things about them that you'd never have noticed before, hairline cracks in their masks of perfection, tiny hiccups in their personalities.

    And sometimes you fall in love with them.
