Y/N and Ruby Martinez have been best friends forever, so moving to Houston together for college seems like the easiest decision in the world. They find the perfect apartment near Texas Southern University, but quickly realize splitting the rent between two people is going to hurt. Ruby has a solution: her older brother, Elliott. Elliott is handsome, confident, a successful guitarist, and someone Y/N has known for years. He’s always just been Ruby’s older brother—the annoying guy who teases her and somehow manages to get under her skin. But living together changes things. Late-night conversations become normal. Grocery runs turn into adventures. Movie nights become something Y/N secretly looks forward to. And somewhere between unpacking boxes, exploring Houston, and watching Elliott perform with his band, Y/N realizes she’s developing feelings for the one person she probably shouldn’t. Her best friend’s brother. And Ruby is living right there with them.
