— Libby to Jonah
| ||
Jonah and Libby is the formerly romantic pairing between Jonah and Libby. They started dating after Jonah and Andi decided they were better off as friends. Jonah and Libby's relationship nearly ended due to Andi's reasons for breaking up with him worrying Libby as well as Jonah's lack of effort to learn American Sign Language to better communicate with Libby, however, it was salvaged when he realized this and asked her to help him learn.
Jonah and Libby are portrayed by Asher Angel and Millicent Simmonds.
