DISCLAIMER
this story isn't a serious attempt at a quality romance story, and is mostly ironic fun. it was created as a shipping fanfic about my friend group for us to get kicks out of. so, if you're an outsider of the friend group there's gonna be a lot you won't understand. but, i guess if your not in the group it just feels like your average romance story with a hint of comedy given the strange premise, so hell, give it a read i guess
