It began with a threesome, grew in a strip club, and ended with two people madly in love. A tale as old as time, really.
Lust and love may not be twins, but they are cousins. We adore when people turn from one sort of relationship into lovers. Enemies to lovers. Friends to lovers. Coworkers to lovers. It's a sickness. We want every story to end in love because then it means our story can end in love and then no matter how miserable we get or how hopeless the situation, we end with someone else. That's what I think we want more than anything else; we just don't want our story to end alone. In the words of Bo Burnham, philosopher of our time, then pick a person and love them. So, here's a story that begins with ravaging passion that devolves or evolves, depending on your view of soulmates and love, into a deep-seated love from one person to the next. It is unruly, unstable, and unhinged, truly one of the worst things I have ever written, chock full of colloquialisms and unabashed smut. I think I might love it.
