Jaylin Miller is best friends with Nick and Chris Sturniolo, but it's a different story when it comes to her and their triplet brother Matt. But when matt finds out a secret about her that nobody knows they end up connecting and more...(enemies to lovers) NO SMUT/SEXUALISING X I do not agree with the sexualising of the sturniolo triplets and will try to not make this story weird, remember this story is a fan FICTION, not a fan truth :) nothing mentioned in this is to be taken seriously. If the triplets find this fanfic and want it removed I will remove it without hesitation. This is purely because I'm bored asf xx Started- August 2nd 2023 Rewriting started- November 4th 2023 Finished- 6th April 2024 Published- 7th April 2024
