i told him i would if you would
but i don't mind it that much
i mean, i already know you're madly in love with me and my dazing looks

i'd rather do it with you than with anybody else
unless they offered me to fake-date tbs

THOMAS BRODIE SANGSTER IS THE
LOVE. OF. MY. LIFE

1. tbs
2. tbs
3. tbs
4. you
5. tbs
6. ki bc he's cute

9. kaya bc she has this lorde vibes going on

mine consists purely of thomas brodie sangsta

so hurt that i don't even make your list

what can i say
you stand no chance as long as
tbs exists

this conversation has strayed too far
back to the point
are we gonna do this or not?

hmm....

my mom has been nagging me about
not having a boyfriend after all

wyck (tmr producer)

hi, wyck
soo dylan and i have talked about it

Good!
Just you and Dylan, I hope.

yeah, ofc
what am I, stupid?

Sorry, Clary.
(That rhymes.)
So... how is it?

we both agreed to fake-date
in ONE condition

What is it?

i'm not doing anything that i don't want to do
*we're, we

What?

i mean, yes we're going to do
the things you asked us to
but we set the boundaries.

What are the boundaries, if I may ask?

i can't tell you yet
what matters is that we have the right to say no

Hmm, sounds fair to me.
Will you be okay with posting
'romantic' posts on social media?

yeah, i can do that

Acting like a couple in front of everyone, especially the media and in public?

yes

Well, that sounds just perfect.
And Clary, make sure nobody else knows.
We have to keep this between you, Dylan and I.

and ellen
and God

Yeah, them too.
We have a deal?

deal.

First things first, we need to announce your relationship to public.
Any idea how to do that?

trust me, i have a plan.

Look at you, already a pro.

oh my god that doesn't make me a bad person
does it?

Not bad, just smart.
