Claus stared down at his computer, frustration tainting his vision. He couldn't think of anything to write and the draft deadline was approaching fast. Writers block was truly an asshole to this poor clockman. Then, a thought flew through Claus' mind, he embraced the idea and began typing.

Andy was sitting in his office, twirling a pen in his hand. The more he thought about the draft deadline, the more he panicked. His best friend, Claus, was a magnificent writer. It just took him a while for ideas to be scribbled down. His current prompt was a love story. Andy dreaded editing it because he didn't really want to know what Claus wanted in a love interest. You see, Andy has always had the most obvious crush on Claus. Seeing what he wanted in a relationship wouldn't exactly give Andy any hope for a successful confession. Just then, he reserved an email.

Claus finished his draft for chapter one. It was about a character who is self aware and talks to the author and reader.

'[Name] looked at his ceiling, sighing. They sat up and looked out their window. Rain fogged up the once clear glass, making anything beyond difficult to see. They stared outside before saying,
"Author, why do you make my life so sad? How am I supposed to live?" Nothing is heard in response. [Name] simply stands up, stretching, then walking to their kitchen. Suddenly, a picture appears on their wall. It dangles from a lose tac, [name] glances at it. Originally, the person in the picture was their lover. The one they cherished most in this fragile life. However, the author ripped them away before [name] got a chance to love them.
"Author, why are you so cruel? Have you never loved someone as much as I loved [name 2] before you took them away?" [Name] sobbed out, tears streaming down their face, water droplets landing in their open palms. A voice rang through their mind,
"I have, I currently do love someone. Speaking of him, he's probably reading this now. Say hi to the reader, [name]." The author's voice boomed in their head.
"No, no I will not say hi. You took away the one I love, why would I ever help you and your boyfriend. I hate you, I hate the reader. You both feed on my misery. Be lucky I can't take him from you." The voice stopped speaking, quiet was the only noise heard by [name]'s ears. The silence became loud as the author stopped typing.
"No! Wait!! You can't just stop writing me!! I need my happy ending, too!" [Name] yelled out, their entire body shaking with fear and anger. Their fists slam the kitchen counter, cracks run down the page of the book, ripping the paper. [Name] cries as the first chapter comes to an end.'

Claus reread his work before emailing it quickly to his favorite person and editor, Andy. Andy and Claus got to know each other in the last years of middle school, keeping their friendship until the current. However, the only feeling wasn't just platonic. Claus found himself longing for Andy day by day. A moment doesn't go by where he wishes to be with his best friend.

Andy read through the chapter, yawning. He liked the plot, just wasn't interested. Then he read it, "he's probably reading this now."  Who was Claus talking about? There's no one other than Andy that could be reading this..

"Oh, I get it."
