    Summary

    Overall, Anthony Crowley considered himself a lucky fellow, with his good looks, good grades and a full ride swimming scholarship. There really wasn't much he can complain about.

    But his real struggle was that he's completely, maddeningly in love with his best friend - a strong, passionate and oblivious angel who, even after a full year of pining, still can't seem to get the hint, no matter how many times Crowley has tried to flirt with him.

    -

    Crowley would never forget the day that the angel first talked to him, for he was certain that was the day that all the clocks around the world began suddenly moving.

    Summary

    Crowley makes a strangled noise and Aziraphale turns back to him to find that the demon is sitting up, his posture rigid and his expression slack with shock. His mouth is quite literally hanging open as he stares down at Aziraphale.

    “Er,” Aziraphale says, befuddled. He holds up the bottle of wine. “Did you want some more?”

    “Azsssiraphale,” Crowley hisses out, then clears his throught and tries again. “Angel. Did you… do you… what did you jussst call me?”

    -

    In which Aziraphale accidentally calls Crowley his boyfriend while inebriated and they both lose their minds.

    Summary

    CROWLEY: I try not to make a habit of gratitude, but I must give our appreciation to everyone out there who’s been listening and subscribing to The Ineffable Plan.
    AZIRAPHALE: Ooh, yes, we’ve become quite popular, haven’t we?
    CROWLEY: Yeah, just hit number eight on the advice charts … No advertising at all.
    AZIRAPHALE: Mm. How … miraculous.
    CROWLEY: … Aziraphale. You did not.

     

    ***

    Crowley and Aziraphale are very possibly the people least qualified, on the entire planet, to start up an advice podcast.

    But what else is there to do when the world isn’t ending anytime soon, you’re technically on indefinite sabbatical from your lifelong careers, and you need a plausible excuse to spend more time with your best friend who you’re definitely not, absolutely not, maybe just a little, actually maybe overwhelmingly in love with?

    Summary

    Crowley blinks behind his shades. “Are you suggesting—”

    “We pretend we’re romantically involved? Perhaps I am.” The angel gives Crowley a guilty smile, cheeks still dusted rosy pink. “It shouldn’t be that hard—we’ve known each other for six millennia, give or take.”

    Crowley wins tickets for an all-expenses paid cruise for two, and the obvious choice for his plus-one is none other than Aziraphale. They immediately realize upon boarding the ship that this cruise is meant for couples of the romantic variety, and in a panic, they decide to fake a relationship for fear of scrutiny. Romantic excursions and mutual pining ensues.

    Summary

    Right, so. The love of his life asked to be in a fake relationship with him. How was Crowley not supposed to lose his mind over that? How was he supposed to hide how he melted like an ice cream cone in the sun when Aziraphale held his hand?

     

    Companion piece to Pretend For Me, from Crowley's POV.
