Juniper drives me crazy in the bad way and in the good way. She’s obnoxious; pushy and invasive and snarky. But there have also been a couple times when arguing with her was the highlight of my day, filling me with an almost euphoric amusement—or when I’ve found myself wondering if kissing her would get her to shut up. We bicker like cats and dogs, in other words, but there’s also a strong undercurrent of mutual attraction.
