    Summary

    “You’re sweet, Stede,” Ed tells him. “I’ll do it.”

    “I’m sorry?”

    “I’ll do it. I’ll marry you.”

    Stede’s mouth falls open, because there’s absolutely no fucking way this is happening to him, and yet—

    And yet, Ed says: I’ll marry you, and it feels like a lifeline.

    “You’re serious?” Stede asks. “You really want to do this?”

    Stede doesn’t expect the beautiful stranger across the bar to say Yes when he asks to fake marry him. He also doesn’t expect to become fake fiancés with benefits, but it seems like they’re both going to get more out of this than they could ever have hoped for.

    The only thing is, Stede always thought that when he did marry, it could be for love.

    Maybe one day, it will be.

    Summary

    Ed heard the gunshot and the following scream when he was busting out of the barracks stores with a sack of food.
    Panicked. Familiar.
    He was running before he even realized he’d stepped on the guard and dropped the bag of loot. Running in the little shoes was a bugger of a thing, but he ran anyway, almost turning his ankle more than once, out into the dark, out into the woods, away from the barracks.
