    Summary

    "Ted, I... I'm in a situation, and I have no idea what to do." Her voice shook slightly, betraying her usual composed demeanor.

    Ted’s brow furrowed. "What kind of situation?”

    Rebecca led him down the hallway toward the living room. As they approached the door, Ted’s gaze followed hers. Sitting quietly on the sofa was a small child, with short brown hair with curly ends, no older than two, her tiny hands clutching a stuffed bear.

    Summary

    Ted shrugged. “Oh, yeah, what, pray tell, should I have done, Beardo?”

    “Asking her out on a normal date would’ve been a great start,” Higgins chimed in.

    Ted couldn't quite grasp what he'd done wrong. In his mind, he had technically asked her out on a date, albeit a days-long, international one.

    Summary

    Ted gets back to Kansas only to realize he's made the biggest mistake of his life and left his home behind. When he decides to rush back in a dramatic moment he forgets one little thing. He doesn't have a work visa anymore. Thankfully there's a simple solution: marry a Brit. But, just to be safe, they decide to not tell anyone this isn't real. It'll be hard keeping the secret from their friends, but how hard will it be to pretend to be marrying for love? Surely there's nothing that could go wrong with Ted and Rebecca getting married? Surely they won't...actually fall in love.

    I jokingly called this fic het mutual pining chicken so there's some good mutual pining angst but don't you worry, they'll figure it out in the end. Also I literally spent 30 seconds googling how visas work so like…hand wave if it’s wrong.
