It really depends on where u are going with it tho
Does anybody want to see a snippet of a random book I am writing?
I'm really trashy at explaining stuff but hear me out
Sam and Karl become friends and they meet 2 currently unnamed characters and they all become friends until someone else joins their friend group and tries to ruin it all to get close to Sam
She wants to date Sam but Sam is gay and likes Karl so she tries to ruin the whole friend group to get Sam to herself
The friend group is always broken up due to someone wanting to get to the main character (it changes between main characters from the friend group between books tho)
It only worked out in 2 of the 3 books tho
Eh
U could work with that
It would have to be someone who was introduced early in the story tho
Maybe someone that was in the friend group, so that both him and the reader feel a sense of betrayal during that turn of events
Here’s is how I’m interpreting it:
Sam and Karl add a few people to their friend group, when Karl suddenly wins something big or smth, and the person he beat that is in the friend feels betrayed
They then start trying to ruin Sam and Karl’s relationship because of that, making the friend group crumble
As all of this is happening, Sam is actively trying to get all of them back together in harmony or something
If you do... You have come to the right place
I looked around my new classroom and wondered if high school would feel any more different. Same painful hours spent around people I don't trust. Too loud, moving suddenly, and intimidating. There was one boy that caught my attention though, Karl. He spent all of homeroom on his computer with his headphones plugged in, unbothered. I wondered how he could put up with these people. It feels like I have to fight for my life to make it through the day just to cry in my bed the second I arrive home.
I turn my attention to the front of the room where the teacher walks in. “Alright, good morning everybody! I’m your teacher, Mr. Oakley.” He announced to the class. “Since it is the first day of school, when I call your name I want you to please stand and share a little about yourself!” I froze, my eyes widening. No, no, no I can’t! My head starts screaming as he begins calling names. When he calls my name I stand and say, “H-hi, my name is Sam and I like playing the guitar and drawing…” I sit down and try hard not to cry. “Very good, Sam.” He proceeds to call names.
When the bell rings I hurry to pack my things and when I turn to leave I hear someone say my name. I whirl around and see Karl standing there,”You alright? You seemed pretty anxious when Mr. Oakley said your name.” I looked at him and said, “Oh uh…Yeah I’m fine I just…”
