Wish you were the One

“I was always there, loving you silently... while you were loving someone else out loud.” Kyle Navarro has spent his entire life in the background of his best friend’s spotlight. Quiet, loyal, and emotionally guarded, he’s the type of person who listens more than he speaks — especially when it comes to Alex Reyes. Alex, the campus heartthrob and Kyle’s childhood best friend, is everything Kyle isn’t: confident, outgoing, effortlessly magnetic. And heartbreakingly straight. Or so Kyle thought. When Alex’s relationship suddenly falls apart, he begins leaning on Kyle more than ever — with late-night calls, subtle glances, and questions that stir up emotions Kyle tried so hard to bury. As their bond deepens and the lines between friendship and something more begin to blur, Kyle is torn between hope and heartbreak. Because loving Alex was never the plan… but letting go might be impossible. Will Alex realize Kyle was the one he’s been searching for all along? Or will Kyle remain the best friend in the shadows — always loving, never loved back? > “You were everything I ever wanted… I just wish you were the one who wanted me too."
