My #FakeDatingFoodies mood board 🩷

#BluePitHype #WritingCommunity
Mood board with school supplies, a blond boy writing on a blackboard, a Chinese takeout container, an Asian boy and girl, macarons, a bowl of spicy instant ramen, and text boxes that read *covers up real feelings with aggressive sarcasm* and a text exchange: you're annoying/but you love me/doesn't make you less annoying

A PHO LOVE STORY x THIS TIME IT'S REAL
When her whiter-than-white-bread crush asks her out, Ashley fake dates her parents' worst nightmare—their restaurant rival's son—so they'll revoke their “only date Asians” rule...but pretending to hate him is harder than pretending to date him. #DVpit #YA #CR
