More like American Love Story!!!!!!! Well, kind of.

After American Crime Story: The People V. O.J. Simpson made attorneys Christopher Darden and Marcia Clark's possible relationship the hottest gossip of 2016 -- sorry Hiddleswift -- Darden has finally admitted that he and Clark hooked up.

"We were more than friends," Darden told ET. "We were inseparable back then."

Darden insists that the two prosecutors never kissed, though, because that's icky.

"I’m not a kisser," he said. "Kissing is intimate. Kissing is more intimate than sex."

But he also claimed, "In lawyer land, a half truth is a truth," so who knows! Maybe they totally made out! When asked to describe their relationship in on word, he went with, "Fire."

Hot!

Of course, there was never any reasonable doubt about the chemistry between these two.

Sarah Paulson and Sterling K. Brown, who played the friends with benefits on American Crime Story, both took home Emmys for their portrayals of the attorneys on Sunday. Paulson brought Clark as her date, but Darden did not accompany Brown to the ceremony, so they did not have a beautiful reunion.

Darden says they haven't spoken in years, but he thinks of her fondly.

"I think if I called her tomorrow we’d probably laugh our butts off," he said.
