My Foremost Attempt At A Romantic Story

I typically do/did either action or sexually-based stories, but due to recent motivation from close friends, I've decided to step back from that and put more thought toward actual romance, and the formation thereof. So, this is my first legit attempt at something like this so bear with me and tell me if you enjoy it.
The story is primarily based on a budding relationship between my own self-insert character and an OC famously originated and drawn by Capy-Diem himself. Feedback and criticism is immensely appreciated.
