    Summary

    “Have you ever been in love?”

    It would’ve been best if she had lied. That’s probably what she should’ve done.

    “Yes, I have”, Emily confessed.

    Andrea sighed. A small, brief sigh. Emily heard it, still.

    “How many times?”

    Emily bit the inside of her cheek. She brought the glass to her lips and took a single sip of the wine inside of it. “Only once.”

    (Emily Charlton spends twenty years in love with Andrea Sachs. And has never once thought Andrea might’ve ever loved her back. Until that moment comes, and Emily has no idea what do to with it.)

    Summary

    "She thinks we're on a date," Emily said, when the woman had gone, around a spoonful of something with figs in it.

    "We're two friends having dinner."

    "At a candlelit corner table for two and a half hours."

    "It's a small restaurant, they're all corner tables."

    "You ordered me the exact side I would have ordered, if I'd been allowed to keep reading the menu instead of being informed I'd taken long enough."

    "That's not a date, that's paying attention."

    "Mm," said Emily, in a tone that conceded precisely nothing, and ate the fig dessert, and did not, Andy noted, ever actually get around to saying it wasn't.

    --

    More than a decade after Andy had left runway, a chance meeting at a bakery reunites her with Emily, freshly divorced and pregnant with her second child. What follows is, of course, a love story.

    Summary

    Andrea is unfazed when she asks lightly, “You seem disappointed to see me."

    “And you seem remarkably eager to talk to someone who is disappointed to see you.”

    Or in other words: An unexpected incident forces Princess Emily and Andrea Sachs, first daughter of the Madam President of the United States, into a desperate PR stunt: convince the world that they are best friends. Emily thinks it is easy enough playing the part for the cameras...what is hard is resisting the sudden, crashing tide of feelings that threatens her lifelong vow of duty before love.
