[ fake fiancee ]: @sercphvs
whether they were faithful to them or not was one thing, but nearly every athlete in any of the leagues showed up to these award ceremonies with their spouses on their arms. while there was a select few women travis had the pleasure of sharing his body with, he was largely a single man. the interactions he had with these women were strategically balanced to be casual yet intimate, fulfilling and a tad bit transactional. then there was lauryn. he very rarely admitted it, but she was special to him. lauryn was breathtakingly gorgeous, incredibly smart, never stressed him out about anything, and had an affinity for home goods. maybe he was falling for her, but that did not stop him from asking her to be his date. being used to this casual thing by now, travis was fairly certain he could ignore any feelings he might have had for her.
a week after the show, travis was lauryn’s doorstep, knocking like he owned the place. “hi,” his shoulders relaxed at the sight of her. he went there feeling slighted since she ghosted, but seeing her face just made him realize how much he simply missed her. and it had only been 7 days.
