This felt a lot like the author went "we're just gonna skip right past the buildup and get right to the good part", except, in my opinion, the buildup is part of what makes the "good part" actually good. I found it a bit hard to get invested in our main characters' relationship when I felt like I didn't know either of them at all. I also didn't really get why they were so insistent on keeping their relationship a secret - sure, they'd be the subject of gossip for a little while, but people would lose interest pretty fast if they weren't actively starting drama.

Overall, I think if the pacing gave the story a little more time to breathe, this would be pretty cute, but as it is it just didn't vibe with me. I give the premiere a 2/5.
