Haven't posted a snippet in a bit so here is one! Working on a crack treated seriously fic with fake dating - except instead of royjamie fake dating, well...
Not having thought this through, Roy takes a moment to think. “I'll give you a cheat day and you can order anything you want. My treat.”
“I'm fucking rich so that is unnecessary, but thanks.”
“And you'll have to find a date,” Roy adds, shrugging.
Jamie frowns again, “Before tonight?”
“You think I can just snap my fingers and poof, a magical date appears?”
This time Roy rolls his eyes, “No, but you'd probably have to press, like, three buttons on your phone.”
“I don't know whether to be flattered that you think I can get a date with just a few buttons or offended that you think I'm that easy,” Jamie tells him with a shake of his head. “I'm not seeing anybody, neither do I want to.”
“Well, get a fucking fake date, then, Jesus fucking Christ, Tartt. It works in the movies.”
“And who the fuck would I ask to be my fake date?” Jamie challenges, “Half the team's got partners, and your sister knows every single one of them 'cause she likes those gossip tabloids.”
They both snap their heads to the side of the room where Will had calmly watched the entire exchange while folding the away match kits.
“Huh?” Jamie asks, blinking.
Will shrugs, “Coach Roy's sister doesn't know me, and I have no plans for tonight. I could be your fake date… if it means free food.” He says the last part to Roy.
Roy nods, smugly, and snaps his fingers as he says, “You're hired.”
Roy's definitely gonna regret that
