Y/N spent months trying to get over Gabriel Phan. It would’ve been easier if he wasn’t their brother’s best friend. After hurting Y/N and disappearing without a real explanation, Gabriel becomes someone they’re determined to avoid. Unfortunately, avoiding him is impossible when he keeps showing up everywhere they go. Then Gabriel asks for a favor. A fake relationship. Simple enough. A few public appearances, a few convincing lies, and eventually they’ll go their separate ways. At least, that’s the plan. But pretending gets complicated when old feelings refuse to stay buried. Especially when Gabriel starts acting less like someone pretending and more like someone who never wanted to let Y/N go in the first place. Now Y/N is stuck sharing late-night study sessions, family gatherings, and way too many stolen moments with the one person they promised themselves they’d never fall for again. The arrangement is fake. The feelings aren’t. And the truth behind why Gabriel hurt them all those months ago might change everything.
