Ed doesn't really like to socialize. Which is fine, he's ok, he just prefers to play Final Fantasy online with his friends than to go on happy hours with his work colleagues, and that's all, really. However, his old boss, Mr. Myers didn't seem to understand that, so Ed came up with "a little lie": a fake girlfriend. It was the perfect excuse and he never got a side eye again. Now that Mr. Myers retired, Ed just has to keep up with the story for the new boss around, who unfortunately asks a lot more questions than the other one. He's just trying to be friendly, so it shouldn't be that hard to convince him. The company's Holiday Party? Uuh, sure, she's coming! It'll be just one night for a whole year of peace. The little lie has worked this far, what could go wrong now?
N/A: Hello, friends! I really hope you enjoy this piece <3<3. English is not my first language, so if you notice something that sounds weird, please send me a heads up! Thank you so much! :))

Before You Knew Me (ONC 2025)
Jim never expected to see Rebecca again-especially not here, in a Denver hotel bar, twenty-some-odd years after high school. Back then, she was the queen bee of his nightmares, a golden girl who made life miserable for awkward, closeted kids like him. But she doesn't recognize him now... not as the man he's become. A few drinks, some harmless conversation, and suddenly, the past doesn't feel so sharp. They're just two professionals on separate work trips-Rebecca, a high-flying pharmaceutical sales rep, and Jim, a corporate trainer starting fresh... What happens over the next few days is a mistake. He knows it the moment their lips brush against each other. He should tell her who he is. He should walk away. Instead, he lets the lie linger. Because for one short work trip, he isn't that kid from high school. And she isn't the girl who made him feel small. But the truth has a way of surfacing. And when it does, neither of them will leave this hotel the same. Prompt 34: Your new job requires an out-of-town overnight orientation, but when you check in, you run into someone from your past you never thought you'd see again.Complete

Someone who makes everyone in that room realise what an absolute moron Joe was for letting you go." "And where exactly am I supposed to find this hypothetical perfect person who's willing to fake being madly in love with me for a week?" Gigi's smile turned almost predatory.
