A boy and a girl binge watch their favorite sitcom about a boy and a girl.
As both stories progress and grow more complicated, similarities seem to arise and the lines between reality and television begin to blur. Is art imitating life or is life imitating art?
Things get awkward and painful and messy. Ships sink and sail. A couple of confused kids have a lot of questions they're looking to answer, and a couple of sitcom characters have a lot of bugs to work out.
But no one ever said 'like like' was easy, and love must be even harder. Besides, sitcoms and real life have at least one thing in common: there's no happy ending guaranteed.

And I should snow you to death for even saying that! I would definitely date you." "...Thanks." 🍒｡･ﾟ♡ﾟ･｡🍓｡･ﾟ♡ﾟ･｡ Dallas Addison had it all; being a talented swimmer and dating the star of the football team, she didn't think she lacked anything in any capacity.

"This book is the perfect mixture of deep and hilarious. I'm in love with that" - crackhead4ever Teen fiction has given cheerleaders a bad rap. And stereotypical appearances. Courtney knows this. She is a cheerleader. Is she a pretty blonde with blue eyes? Well, yes. Is she popular and perky? ...okay. Yes, again. Is she stuck up and cruel to others for no reason? Ha! There! No to that one. In fact, she's worked for years to portray the perfect image of an upbeat, easy going person. An image that gets harder to hold on to when: The new girl takes an instant dislike to her. Her best friend decides to run against her for Senior Class President. Her football team captain boyfriend breaks up with her. And, oh yeah, she humiliates herself in front of the whole school. Yup, that perfect image is falling apart.
