{y/n} needs a boyfriend. Temporarily. Luckily, her close friend Mattheo Riddle volunteers before she can even finish explaining the problem. It should be easy. They already know everything about each other, they’re comfortable together, and neither of them is secretly waiting for their friendship to become something more. All they have to do is convince everyone else. Hold hands. Sit a little too close. Flirt. Kiss occasionally. Let Mattheo take his role as fake boyfriend significantly more seriously than necessary. It’s funny at first. Then pretending starts feeling suspiciously natural. They agreed on how to fake a relationship. They never discussed what happens if they stop faking it.
