> opposites attract

> friends to lovers

> (mutual) pining - even though we see nailea's pov the most and how she processes things, june technically is the one who has fallen first since their first interaction, which he hides between his teasing and awkwardness. being a little slow, nai overthinks his intentions and actions and may be unaware of the depth of his feelings in the beginning.

at the same time, nailea dismisses her feelings for june, thinking it's a silly little crush. in reality, both are shy or too awkward to confess, leading to a period of mutual pining. they could be aware of the other's feelings but hesitate to act, making the eventual confession all the more satisfying 😜

> one-bed trope

> jealousy

> meet cute (?)

> inexperienced lover - even though june has never been in a relationship, his observant nature (mixed with everything he's seen and read) makes him unexpectedly good at reading nailea's needs or making romantic gestures. this can lead to moments where his "natural" ability surprises both of them.

> shy guy & confident girl - june is shy and awkward, while nailea appears more confident and comfortable, especially when teasing him. now let's not be swayed that june won't be more forward; he definitely will as their relationship progresses and while they get together. he just gets flustered easier since he has no experience in these things.
