A 'Sim'ple Story

Watching Joe and Dianne playing Sims 4 during lockdown inspired me to write this story. It follows the Suggwells as they build a home, build a relationship, and build a life together.
The structure of the story is similar to that of 'New Girl' by Rzar123. I haven't copied (I swear!), but I was inspired by the idea of having each chapter set over the course of a month. And, as the story unfolds, you'll hopefully understand why I've paced it that way.
But if you like a slow-burn romance, this story ain't it! For those who have watched the Sim's videos, you'll know that everything happened very quickly in that game. So, I've tried to slow the pace down a bit; but the story will still require some suspension of disbelief (well, more than my previous stories!), so please try to humour me!
This won't play out in exactly the same way as the series did, but there are certain plot points from the videos that I will be including. And although I've tried to make it as realistic as possible, the story is still quite satirical and doesn't take itself too seriously!
All comments, feedback and suggestions are welcome, and I will try to take them on board.

Off-Camera (Joanne)
Although we saw Joe and Dianne fall in love on the dancefloor, we also saw them grow closer off of it. Their reaction videos allowed Joe and Dianne the opportunity to spend more time together, reflect on their dances, laugh at themselves, and strengthen their bond even more. But there was a lot that we didn't get to see from those videos, so this is my interpretation of Joe and Dianne's love story, based around the reaction videos that they filmed for each routine. Bear in mind that this story isn't going to be totally accurate (after all, nobody - apart from Joe and Dianne, obviously - know how they actually got together) and there may be some errors/inconsistencies along the way. Nevertheless, I hope you enjoy the story; and remember that all feedback is appreciated!Complete
