   Summary

   There are not a lot of things in the world that scare Julie Kovalenko. She is usually beaming with confidence, sure of herself and her skills up to the point of foolishness.
   One thing that scares her is vulnerability, so she keeps her heart locked in the cage, buried deep out of anyone's reach.
   But something changed after Didi's confession.
   Julie always found the other woman attractive, sure. However, after the party Didi was all she could think about.
   Feelings she was previously unaware of started surfacing and so did her doubts. At some point thinking has turned into overthinking.

   What if she was just imagining that Didi had any romantic interest in her?

   What if Julie is going to fuck this up?

   _______

   Or the importance of friendship, learning how to be vulnerable and facing your fears.

   (Set right after s2 ep8)

   Title from Butch4Butch by Rio Romeo. (I know that these two are more of a Workaholic4Workaholic situation, but it still seems fitting)
