Koibito Keiyaku Chuu ni Tsuki
Omg i just really love this… i think it executes the friends to lovers trope SO WELL. like the anxieties the MC has about falling for his friend is so realistic. The unrequited love is also painfully well written! Very reflective of the typical gay experience imo. I loveee their communication and their honesty in telling each other their feelings. One moment thst particularly struck me was when the ML gets all down on himself, thinking he’s forcing the MC to love him bc he was straight before. BUT the MC immediately absolves those worries, and it just… warms my heart yk? The office setting cements itself within the story without being too overbearing, adding to the realism of the story. Loved the ending, and I think subplot with the MC’s stalker gets resolved quite nicely.
