Hey! I just met you.. This is crazy.. Here's my number.. Be my fake mate? Maybe? Tags: Omegaverse, Fake Dating To qualify for a nice apartment (fuckin’ perfect apartment actually) Taehyung and Yoongi decide to fake a bond. What they didn’t realize is that they would be required to complete a 6-week Pack Compatibility Bootcamp, competing for the apartment against other couples. All they wanted was the apartment. But now they’re stuck doing scent-matching drills, couple yoga, and other coupley things without revealing that their relationship is in fact... Fake. They bicker nonstop. Taehyung wins every challenge. Yoongi’s awful at emotional honesty. But the closeness starts to blur the lines between acting and feeling, in ways neither expected. And maybe when it all ends, they’ll have to decide whether it was all pretend, or the new beginning they didn’t know they were waiting for.

Story Summary Opening credits Tags: Alternate Universe, Strangers to Lovers, Angst with happy ending “Are you scared?” he asked. Yoongi closed his eyes. He thought he was feeling many things at that moment, probably even a hint of fear. The dominating feeling, though, was the urge to cry. For the first time since he had understood he was gay, since he had learned that his want revolved around men, he felt completely himself. He loved that Taehyung, a young man, was eagerly looking at him, touching him and making him feel hot, wanted. It was wonderful to realize he was naked beneath him and he didn’t want anything else, and not feeling even a shred of shame was liberating. For that reason, “No,” he said, “I’m just feeling a lot.” Taehyung kissed him again. “I am, too,” he confessed, his voice trembling. In which there's a cinema where Yoongi can be who really is and feel free to love who he really loves. Rated M 26k Complete Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/80296826
