The Core

Rebecca and Harry enter an agreement - he gets her off and in return she allows him the privilege of touching her - both of which tend to happen at the same time. She's one of the most sought after girls in school while he's generally considered to be annoying. Too loud when the moment doesn't call for it and too shy when it does.

After school finishes, they find each other again in college, but the dynamic of their relationship changes as they've now seemingly ended up in the same friend group. Over time, as Becca and Harry age, their relationship dynamic shifts and finds new forms.

Inspired by books like Normal People, Open Hearts and Preferential Treatment, somehow.
