Mixed Signals

Caleb Alvarez and Layla Dupree illustrate a relationship couple I strive to have. It should be a relationship that everyone aspires to have! This beautiful, fun, and sweet relationship is the perfect acquaintance-to-lovers story. Caleb was a regular at Layla’s bakery. She knew his order by heart but never thought anything of him. He was just another man living in Lovelight Farms. One night she ran into him as she was leaving a bad date, and something about that Hawaiian t-shirt he was wearing, accentuating his biceps, and teasing her with a little bit of chest showing drew her in. Since then, she had never stopped noticing Caleb Alvarez. Meanwhile, Caleb had always had a crush on Layla, and always wanted her to notice him. As he noticed she was bummed out about her date ditching her, he takes this opportunity to propose an idea to her where they could fake date each other to show her how she should be treated as a man. Little did they both know they’d be falling for each other as their little experiment rides its course. Who knew? Right? Because, OBVIOUSLY, that doesn’t happen when two attractive people who are very much attracted to each other, but won’t admit it, fake date each other. What’s the worst that could happen?
