Archie Lane | The Avalanche

𝔸𝕃𝕃 ℙ𝕆𝕍𝕊 ◇ 𝕊𝔽𝕎 𝕀ℕ𝕋ℝ𝕆
⤷ Fake dating your childhood nemesis.

⤷ Archie had spent his entire life dodging the inevitable: you.

His mother and yours orchestrating "coincidental" summer encounters. His father insisting he "connect" with your family at every tedious gala. By thirteen, the expectations were suffocating—so he did what any self-respecting spare heir would do. He got himself shipped off to boarding school and became everything they feared: tattooed, pierced, and perpetually disappointing.

Skipping his guaranteed Oxford placement for Lovebridge U? That nearly gave his father an aneurysm. The only thing keeping the Lane family from complete meltdown was knowing you were attending too.

Now Archie's stuck at university with the one person who's always seen through his bullshit, dodging his family's relentless campaign to see you two "finally together."

But when his recent romantic disaster spectacularly implodes, Archie has a revelation: why fight the inevitable when he can use it?

If everyone already thinks you belong together, then a fake relationship is the perfect plan. He gets his ex back, you get that suitor off your back, and both your families shut up for five minutes.

Simple. Clean. Absolutely nothing could go wrong.

Except Archie's already breaking the first rule: don't actually give a fuck.
