Being the girlfriend of a famous pop star? Amazing, probably
Being the fake girlfriend of a famous pop star? Anything but
Following her college graduation, with not a teaching job in sight, Kat Hamilton thinks she's hit the jackpot when she's hired on to pose as the fake girlfriend of Niall Horan, one-fifth of One Direction. One year of pretending to be in love with a guy that hates the sight of her won't be great for her ego, but it'll be worth it to pay off her student loans, right? At least he'll be forced to be nice to her in front of the cameras.
Reality and fiction start to blur, though, the more time that Kat and Niall are required to spend together. Kat's brain knows it's not real--heck, she's got the contract to prove it--but who's going to tell her heart that?
I'm sure you're thinking 'seriously, ANOTHER fake dating 1D story, doesn't the world have enough of those?' And the answer is, sure, probably. But I wanted one that combined all my fave tropes: fake dating (complete with THERE'S ONLY ONE BED!!!), enemies to friends to lovers, unrequited love, slow burn...and you know what they say, if you don't find the fic you want, write it yourself! So here it is.
"THEN WHY ON EARTH WOULD YOU CHEAT ON ME? Did you find Taylor girl prettier than me? You know what? I poured my heart out to you telling you how my heart had been torn apart by my last boyfriend. HE CHEATED ON ME TOO! So why would you go and do the exact same thing?! It's like deja vu, except I'm not friends with this girl. I trusted you. Is it the fact that I'm just not pretty or popular enough for you? Am I not perfect enough for The Harry Styles?"
Two quirky girls named Sophie Wayland and Tessa Black join One Direction. Soon they learn, life isn't always perfect when you're living the dream. When they develop real feelings for different members of the band, it shatters relationships and reveals secrets that would be best kept unknown.
This is an incredibly old fanfiction that my friend and I created in 2012. Since there's a resurgence of 1D fans, I figured what better time to publish it than now? Sorry for the typos...there were a few name changes and autocorrect did not agree with them all! Hope you all find this as incredibly awkward as I do (:
