    Summary

    Modern AU. She's 27. He's 28. Eight years of no contact, one Piltover party that ended badly, and somewhere between three hundred and a thousand things neither of them ever said out loud.

    Then a silent, feral kid lands in both their laps and suddenly they're lying to a caseworker, sharing a lease, and standing in the wreckage of everything they spent years convincing themselves they were over. The fake relationship was supposed to be logistics. The cohabitation was supposed to be simple. Neither of those things happened.

    This isn't a love story. It's what happens when two people who know each other too well finally run out of space to keep running — and have to figure out what's left when they stop.
