Neil and Todd have never met each other, but now they're gonna marry each other! Both independently decide to sign up for a reality TV show, Married at First Sight, in which strangers are matched by dating experts and marry their assigned soul mates.
Neils rationale? He's a hopeless romantic who can't shake the feeling that this could change his life for the better. and well, as Keating would say, Carpe Diem.

I’ll Follow You by shadow_lilies
Fandoms: Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid

Summary
Shane Hollander lands his breakout role opposite Ilya Rozanov in a buzzy rivals-to-lovers adaptation. Their on-screen chemistry is electric & their off-screen “practice” is supposed to be no strings attached. When the show airs, the internet starts paying attention & all the lines start to blur.
Or…what if Shane & Ilya were actors who met on the set of a TV show, have to deal with fame & semi-unhinged fandom, and are still idiots falling in love.
——————————————————
“Can I ask you something?” Ilya said.
Shane’s stomach flipped. “Okay.”
Ilya hesitated, then said, “Have you ever been with a man?”
…
“But,” Ilya added, studying him, “I know you, Shane Hollander.”
“You do?”
“You want it to be perfect,” Ilya said simply. “You want to be the best one in the room. Every time.”
…
“For authenticity,” Shane said, clinging to the word.
Ilya’s mouth curved. “Exactly,” he said. “If that helps.”
...
“I’m not saying you need to,” Ilya added. Then the smirk slipped back in to place. “But if you ever decide you want to...I’m here and willing.”- Language:

Summary
In Vegas, after they’d said everything right up to the edge of I love you, Shane and Ilya came up with a plan. It was long term, with many, many steps. There might be a spreadsheet somewhere that Shane won’t admit to.
But it’s a plan, nonetheless. Over the summer of 2014, they tweak it and add things important to the both of them. There are even many, extensive, contingency plans.
OR
Thanks to Shane's small lie the first time they hooked up, Shane and Ilya are together years earlier. Now, they have to figure out what to do about it.

Summary
On April 28th, 1961, 8:26am Paul McCartney’s alarm goes off.
“Paul was on the precipice of something brilliant, and every nerve in his body could feel it. What was about to take place was something deeply woven into the tapestry of his fate and history. Paul was nothing of the person he once was, and the person he was about to become was just on the horizon.”
Inspired by Groundhog Day and “A Day in the Life” by The Beatles

Summary
It's 1995, the young Dr. James Wilson (28) has spent his entire career playing by the rules—long hours, endless sacrifices, and doing whatever it takes to impress his demanding boss, Dr. Moore. But when his marriage crumbles and leaves him with nowhere to go, an unlikely offer from Dr. Gregory House (36)—Princeton-Plainsboro’s brilliant and insufferable head diagnostician—throws his life into chaos.
At first, living with House is nothing more than a temporary arrangement, a necessary evil after his divorce. But, as Wilson pushes himself harder than ever to secure his future as the next Head of Oncology, House becomes an irritating, unpredictable force in his life—mocking him, challenging him, noticing him.
Tension escalates, emotions fray, Wilson is forced to confront the truth: the life he’s been trying to build isn’t the one he actually wants—and House, infuriating as he is, might just be the only person who sees him for who he really is.
(DISCLAIMER: Dead Poet's Society is merely used to help with piecing together Wilson's past, characters and places are mentioned but they are never fully introduced. Sorry to actual Dead Poet's Society fans lol)
