Summary
“I told my sister that I’m dating someone,” Claire breaks the silence.
It’s the last thing Zara expects her to say, and her stomach swoops. She feels oddly like she just watched the train she was supposed to be on leave the station without her, and tries to convince herself that she isn’t sure why.
“I was kidding about Owen earlier, but are you seeing someone?” Zara’s voice comes out too high pitched, landing somewhere between fake interest and panic, and she takes a hurried gulp of wine to try and hide it.
Claire gives her an odd look. “No? That’s why this is such a mess."

“When Karen and the boys are here next week, we’re going to have to pretend to be engaged.”

“You are the absolute love of my life, Claire. I adore you,” Zara says finally, pinching the bridge of her nose. “But how in the ever loving fuck did you get us into this situation again?”
Or: three years after fake dating, Claire and Zara get fake engaged
