[sweetestjongin]

Title: no need to play pretend
Pairing(s): kai/chanyeol
Rating: PG13

Summary: On the eve of his sister's wedding, Chanyeol hires Jongin to pose as his boyfriend so he doesn't have to confront his ex alone. It's easy enough to make everyone believe they're in love, but he doesn't count on Jongin being so convincing that Chanyeol starts to believe it himself.

this was such a fun read! the way chankai progressed from fake dating to being in love came off so naturally and i love the characterisations you gave them. i can completely imagine jongin acting the way he did in this fic, confident and smooth and laid back, with chanyeol being insecure and emotional and still hung up on kyungsoo. i also really liked the part where jongin improv'd the story about their first meeting. everything about this fic was sweet + a great mix of realistic and romcom. (and +++ for best friends baekyeol!!) thank you for writing this ♡
