Loving Her

According to the internet, I’m dating Tino Valentine.

According to reality? I’ve rejected him approximately a hundred times.

So when a photo of us goes viral and suddenly everyone at school thinks we’re a couple, I do the only reasonable thing: panic.

Tino, on the other hand, sees an opportunity. His plan? Fake date until everyone gets bored.

It should be simple—we’ve got chemistry, he already knows how to flirt with me, and I already know how not to fall for him… right?

But all the hand holding, inside jokes, and way too many heart-eye emojis make the relationship look all too real, and soon, I start to wonder if I made a huge mistake turning him down all those years.

Because pretending to date the boy who never gave up on you? That might be the most dangerous plan of all.
