A small series of key points for California and Texas as they morph from barely tolerating each other, to lovers. Each chapter is its own bubble of time but all chapters are within the same timeframe. (Basically this means it's not a steady constant flow of time, it's just glimpses.)
A quick warning, there is some of what could be perhaps taken as internalized homophobic struggles (but not homophobia towards others) Also in my headcanon, in the Statehouse none of the States actually hate California, but they poke and tease at him because they don't realize that he genuinely thinks they hate him. As such, California has may have some darker thoughts due to his mental health.
