Now that Simons contract is finally done, he can move to New York, start fresh with work he actually likes, and get away from Charlie.Simons only problem is that people might assume hes been pushed off the show due to being impossible to work with. And heiskind of difficult to work with. He doesnt get along with peopleunlike Charlie, who somehow tricked everyone on the show into adoring him despite some outrageously bad on-set behavior during the shows first season. Simon would rather never have to see Charlie again, but reluctantly agrees to stage a very public friendship during the short time before he moves. When Charlie has to leave town to deal with a family emergency, this means Simon comes along. Their road trip brings Simon to places he would never have willingly chosen to visitand he finds hes actually not having a terrible time.The more he gets to know Charlie, the more Simon suspects hes underestimated his former coworker. Simon also realizes that after seven years, Charlie might know him better than anyone ever has. Even stranger, Charlie seems to be starting to actually like him, despite knowing him so well. Still, Simon is about to move three thousand miles away, so whatevers starting between him and Charlie cant really amount to anything... right?Tropes:Enemies to LoversOpposites AttractForced ProximitySlow Burn
