Stubborn Spark

The push and pull between the friends and lovers felt so authentic. I'm curious whether this was planned from the start or evolved during writing.

The emotional stakes kept me guessing — I kept wondering if they’d end up together or if their paths would diverge. How did others feel about the relationship's direction?

It added a unique twist to the friends-to-lovers trope, but I wonder what led to this particular dynamic. Was it based on personal experience or a creative choice to explore different relationships?
