just dive in [reed bishop spin-off] ✔️
33 parts Complete once upon a time, oliver sterling and reed bishop were best friends. with a shared love for swimming, they were inseparable. but one night changed everything between them and when oliver moved to london, their friendship fell apart.
five years later, oliver is back in manchester and the past he has been avoiding for so long catches up with him. old friends, current and ex-girlfriends, feelings he thought he had buried long ago; they all rise to the surface in a hard to ignore mix. most impossible to ignore is reed, with his scowls and icy blue eyes. it's clear he wants nothing to do with oliver, but why does he find it so hard to stomach reed's hatred?
because there was a time when it came close to something else entirely and oliver would be willing to do anything to get that back.
