Stay If You Can
Updated at Sep 10, 2026, 14:46
Eli has spent his whole life being the one who doesn't leave the last-born who holds the family together while everyone else walks out the door. Jenna is the one person who's never made him feel like a burden. As their friendship tips into something neither of them can name, Eli finds himself caught between wanting her and believing that wanting anything permanent is how you lose it. Jenna keeps promising she'll stay. Eli keeps waiting for the day she won't.
