Another story idea

I had yet another dream that's turned into a story idea. This time it's for a mixed gender romance, but it's still queer because the female love interest is a bi woman whose wife has recently died and the male love interest is demisexual. The woman's gay bff works at a boarding school; in my dream it was a girl's school, but now that I'm awake, I'm not sure how that works and have to do research. He gets the woman a job there (in the dream it was "teaching self-defense" which is awesome, but I think there needs to be more to it; physical education maybe?). The male love interest teaches history or English. Everyone but FLI and GBFF thinks he's gay because of Stereotypes, but he's just really shy and introverted. FLI manages to crack his awkward exterior and they fall in love.
There was one scene in my dream where she running on the track and he was watching her as he ate his breakfast, which happened every morning even though he pretended he didn't. She came in and sat to talk to him. At the end, she took the last strawberry from his plate because she knew he always left one piece of food/fruit on his plate and wasn't going to eat it. He was shocked she's noticed.
So, now I've got my paranormal series to write, my pirate romance, Wildflower, and this. And I have to re-edit the paranormal story and despite saying it was never ever going to happen to me, I hate that story so much because I've read it too many times and I now believe it to be absolute and utter crap.
