rating: t.

this work was inspired by personal experience, books, and earlier times. specifically, earlier 90s/00s aesthetics, movies, books. for books, i recommend her name in the sky by kelly quindlen, and keeping you a secret by julie ann peters. for earlier movies, i don’t really have any recs, just the subtle cliches. imagine this story taking place in a small, american town. 

for characters, there’s nct members, but i didn’t want to tag them or anything. they’re not the focus of this story. just letting you know in case.

this story isn’t a reflection of the characters in real life as well, please take note. 

i hope someone enjoys it.

warnings for: homophobia, external, and slightly internal as well.
