The Things No One Else Sees

Lucy's cousin is a good friend of Joffrey Lupul's. She thinks Lupul is an asshole; Lupul thinks she's a bitch. Neither of them realize that they have too much in common to hate each other.

The story takes place between February 2013 and November 2013. I hope to post a chapter a day unless something crazy comes up.

This fic was inspired by many, many songs. Because Lupul is a huge fan of (good!) music, I decided to let the music that inspired the story play a larger than normal role it it. Throughout the text, you'll see links when a song is mentioned. If you click on the link, then it will take you to YouTube so you can hear the song. If you'd prefer not to let the music get in the way, then feel free to disregard. And if you want to download the "soundtrack" to the fic, you may do so here: DOWNLOAD SOUNDTRACK.
