Joe and y/n were inseparable, so much so that when the time came to pick a college to go to, they both picked OSU. When Joe transferred to LSU, y/n went right along with him. The thing is, both of them had hidden feelings for one another but were too scared to say anything. y/n was terrified that if she told Joe that she had somewhat of a crush on him he wouldn't feel the same and their friendship would be ruined. Joe had the same fear, that y/n would say she didn't feel the same way and their friendship wouldn't ever be the same. The pair graduated from LSU and neither of them had confessed, they both hoped they could move on and just suppress the feelings they had. Joe of course was drafted to the Cincinnati Bengals so he was moving back home to where his parents and y/n's parents were. y/n got a job and stayed in Louisiana. Two years later, they eventually lost contact due to being busy with their everyday lives when y/n got the news that the place she was working at was shutting down.

Or.. will they resurface? *Last updated November 5th, 2023*
