The story begins in Will and Grace's apartment. Will is sprawled on the couch, idly flicking through channels on the TV, a look of boredom written on his face. Jack, as usual, bursts into the room without knocking. He's all bubbles and charm as he announces that he's got a proposition for Will - he wants Will to be his fake boyfriend for a charity event he's hosting.
Seeing Will's skeptical look, Jack frantically tries to explain. He's been asked to host an event in support of a cause he genuinely cares for - LGBTQ+ rights. However, his ex-boyfriend will also be attending and he wants him to think he's moved on. Jack is terrified of attending this event alone, and he turns to Will with puppy dog eyes. Will, after some resistance, finally gives in.
Chapter Two: The Preparation
Jack is thrilled when Will finally agrees to his request. But that's when the hard work begins. Jack wants Will to be convincingly romantic - not an easy thing for Will, given his more reserved nature. Jack takes it upon himself to coach Will through the basics of public displays of affection, insisting on hand-holding and the occasional peck on the cheek.
While practicing for their 'big debut', they start to rely on dating apps to get a better feel of romantic gestures. They explore popular apps like Grindr and OKCupid, scrolling through profile after profile, and critiquing people's romantic gestures. They even have some fun with it, quipping about cheesy pickup lines and awful dates they've had in the past.
Chapter Three: The Event
The day of the event finally arrives and both men are a bundle of nerves. Jack, looking radiant in a silver tux, can't help but fuss over every detail, while Will, ever the calm presence, simply allows Jack to flutter about him.
As they enter the venue, they make an effort to appear the picture-perfect couple, with Jack clutching Will's arm tightly. There's a moment of anxiety when they spot Jack's ex-boyfriend, but they quickly cover it up with flourish and charm.
Chapter Four: Unexpected Feelings
As the night wears on, the lines between their pretend relationship and reality begin to blur. Will finds himself genuinely enjoying this new dynamic with Jack - the soft touches, the shared smiles, and even the occasional public displays of affection. He's startled by the warmth that washes over him whenever Jack holds his hand or leans into him.
Jack, too, isn't immune. Seeing Will in this intimate light sparks feelings that he hadn't anticipated. He finds himself stealing glances at Will throughout the evening, appreciating the man not just as a friend but potentially something more.
Chapter Five: The Aftermath
Once they leave the event, things between Will and Jack return to their usual friendly banter. But something has shifted in their dynamic. They both feel it even if they don't immediately speak about it. Both men are left contemplating their feelings and whether they dare cross the line between friendship and something more.
The next day, they decide to discuss their feelings. Despite the awkwardness of the moment, they both acknowledge that they enjoyed their experience more than they expected. There's an unspoken agreement that they want to explore this further, but they also want to preserve their friendship. In the end, they agree to take things slow and see where life takes them.
