Locked in a lifelong rivalry, Lena and Theo go way back - but do they really know each other?
When Theo goes to college, leaving Elena, his best friend's annoying sister he grew up with, behind at his home town, he thinks that she will never be in...

The only reason why I'm going tonight it's because it's a chance to go clubbing in New York for the first time. I'm glad Isa is coming, I wouldn't do this without her. She's going to keep me from strangling Theo.
As I'm leaving the shower, someone texts.
isa 🎀
isa🎀 I'm outside. Open the door.
me k, give me a minute. Putting a shirt on.
isa🎀 okay, hurry.
I put an oversized t-shirt and shorts on and run to the door to see my best friend for the first time in a month.
Isa looks better than ever. She's also keeping me from breathing with how hard she's hugging me.
"I need to breathe..." she lets go of me. "OH MY GOD ISABELLA I MISSED YOU SO FUCKING MUCH"
"Me too Lena, holy shit" this time, I'm the one hugging her.
"Let's go to my room, we can talk there! I need you to help me pick an outfit"
"Oh my god, okay okay. God, I missed this"
As we get to my room, I close the door. After putting my makeup on and listening to Isa talk about her European summer, I open my closet to choose an outfit. I feel like a black top with a sparkly skirt and boots is always a good choice. I put the clothes on and turn to Isa.
"What do you think?"
"You look absolutely stunning Lena, I'm speechless..." she's covering her mouth, I roll my eyes smilling "Theo's going to love it..."
"Would you stop that already? I've told you I don't care what he thinks, he's my brother's best friend and I hate him"
"Hm sure." I can't help but to roll my eyes "Lena, you know I've been rooting for your whole enemies to lovers trope thingy since we were little, and don't even lie because I know you used to have the biggest crush on him"
She's not wrong. I did use to have a crush on Theo when I was little. Then he was rude to me and treated me like a child, so I just decided to hate him after that. He kept bickering so I started doing it back.
I hated Theo for being my first ever crush and never even looking at me twice. He was always at my house, eating my food, spending time with my family and everyone loved him but me. Why? He was nice to everyone but seemed to have something against me, always bickering and annoying me. That's the reason why I don't like him. It's easier to hate Theodore than to love him. He's Oliver's best friend, it would get messy.
