(A/N I know this is mostly dialogue but normally in my other stories I'd do mostly story telling and less dialogue so I thought some dialogue would be great! Also, this is kind of an enemies to lover trope. I'm aware it's severely overused but I'd rather put a gun in my mouth than think of an original relationship between characters so here we are. )
