    Summary

    Henry is a doctor at a NY public hospital. His visa to work in the States expires, and he has to leave the country. His only option for another working visa is to go back to the UK for a year and apply from there, something he is not ready to do. His boss, June Claremont-Díaz, offers the help of her recently graduated attorney brother. It is not just that nobody asked Alex how he feels about helping Henry. It is that he and Alex met a couple of years ago, before Alex went to Texas to do his internship, and it didn’t go well. Every time they’ve met since, they’ve been rude to each other. Nothing predicts this time might be different.

    Or: the green card marriage RWRB AU love story nobody asked for.

    Summary

    “I have a proposition for you.”

    Henry tries not to think about those words in another context and ultimately fails. He schools his expression into something more civil, “Right. What is it?”

    Alex appears to be straining so hard to not roll his eyes that it’s surprising he hasn’t given himself a hernia, “Date me.”

    “Excuse -”

    “Pretend. Pretend to date me.”

    Henry Fox is certain of four key facts; he needs at least four vodka shots to be able to stomach karaoke, his best friend Pez may be the earliest cause of his inevitable demise and he is sadly, deeply in love with his next-door neighbour who hates his guts.

    The fourth is that the universe is out to get him as that is the only explanation for why said neighbour demands that they pretend to date, so he can prove to his sister that he is mature enough to be godfather to her child.

    Wait until he finds out their hotel room only has one bed.
