I'd tell you I miss you, but I don't know how
Description
Cara gaped at him. “How do you blurt out to one of the executive members of Lupus Corp that I am your girlfriend? You do realize that we’re not dating, right?”
He threw his hands up in exasperation as he responded, “He kept pestering me about bringing Catherine to the Astrum Charity Event at the end of September, but we had that argument yesterday about pineapples—”
“I still stand by the fact that they should not exist,” she cut him off, and he just glared at her for a moment before speaking.
—or: Cara Ryan and Jongin "Kai" Kim go on a fake date and everything spirals from there.
Foreword
Hello!
This fic is a holidate-style AU that is being cross posted with a Genshin Impact version of it on AO3. Each chapter corresponds to a holiday between September and May for a total of nine chapters. I've been working on the Genshin version first with the first three chapters already up, but since I'm also cross-posting it here, I will be posting the first three chapters within the first three weeks of December to catch up by Christmas.
I'm cross-posting it because I really love writing and working on this (plus I went all out on the way early on), and it's been difficult juggling two fics (this and Run to You) while finishing up my master's degree and I didn't want to leave AFF without any content from me for long periods :')
There a few fudged details such as names and places because everything was transferred from Genshin related settings to non-Genshin related but it should make enough sense (hopefully). Title's from Taylor Swift's Story of Us!
