Ask and you shall receive
🧩- Ari Levinson x Reader
I'm very intrigued by this story.
EE thank you for indulging me! 💜💜
A document now exists for this fic and has officially taken off.
Here is the snippet I added: It had come up so many times and in so many variations among friends and strangers that Ari paid it no mind.
“You should just date, already,”
“Your wife looks lovely…”
“Is that your boyfriend over there?”
“You’re both practically married, anyway…”
The response had always been the same. A firm no - as a quip, like an expaseprtaed Dad on a road trip, as a sharp rebuke, and the many flavors in between.
But today, your response twinged at his heartstrings.
“We’re just friends,” you had brushed off a comment about your relationship.
Ari had heard you say those words many times, and heck he’d said the same phrase too.
But now, that two syllable and four letter word sits heavy in his chest. As he smiles his way through the last dregs of the cocktail hour, he tabulates all the ways the silly word has no place in describing your relationship.
You are friends. In fact the best of friends, sharing a household and everything that came with it and occasional conspirators at play parties. There is nothing “just” about your friendship.
Bully me into working on my WIP
