Summary
Joel’s eyes were focused straight ahead, as if he didn’t want to look at you, to save you the embarrassment. You took the moment to watch the way his jaw flexed, a quirk you noticed he would do when he wasn’t quite sure what to say.
Joel keeps going. “Well, if it’s any consolation, I think that you’re a real,” another awkward cough, ”real, sweet girl. Didn’t deserve to see any of that.”
-
Moonshine and infidelity are two things that don’t mix quite well. Witnessing your long-time boyfriend cheating on you sent you into a downward spiral, but what made it worse was that your crush, Joel Miller, was there with you when it happened. Joel’s sympathetic and compassionate nature only made things worse, and you found yourself quickly latching to him. For better, or for worse.

“Are you Joel?” the girl asks.
“Mmm,” he grunts in answer.

You run the inn in your small town, and you and your daughter, Ellie, meet the surly new diner owner. Basically the Gilmore Girls AU that’s been haunting my dreams. Cue the la la las!-
