This had so much potential to be a cute unrequited/required childhood friend to lovers story. Instead the Seme slaps the Uke for trying to state his opinion and encourage him. They completely gloss over the abuse and try to make it seem cutesy. Both characters need to work on their communication skills. The top has anger management issues and the bottom needs to discover some self-worth.
I had anal sex with a cold childhood friend who never switched words with me
