After being ghosted by the senpai I loved for years, I tried something desperate: a dating app that lets you rent a girlfriend in real life. Just one session. Just to feel wanted again.

That’s when I met Arisa—gorgeous, confident, and way too real. She said all the right things... but what happens when the lines between rental and reality start to blur?

Now my ex-senpai is back. The girl I rented is acting like we’re truly dating. And my emotions? Completely out of control.

This isn’t just a love triangle.
This is my heart, fully subscribed.

A romantic rollercoaster where hired love turns real, heartbreak returns with a smile, and one mistake could cost everything.

I Rented a Girlfriend to Get Over My Senpai, Now She's in Love

But when they touched —It felt like the first honest thing he'd done in weeks.

Arisa stared at him. Guarded. Vulnerable. Her defenses were cracking again, but not because she wanted to.

"You don't have to say anything," she whispered. "I just needed to know if I should stop hoping."

Yuuki stepped forward. Slowly. Carefully. Like getting too close might break the moment.

"I'm not good at this," he said. "Relationships. Trust. Being brave."

Arisa let out a quiet laugh. "Yeah. I kinda noticed."

"But I know this," he continued. "I don't want anyone else to know you the way I do. I don't want anyone else making you smile the way I can."

"I want to be yours. And I want you to be mine."

She blinked. Twice. Her lip quivered like she wasn't sure if she wanted to cry, scream, or kiss him.

And when their lips met—It wasn't fireworks.It was quiet. Safe. Real.

When they pulled apart, she rested her forehead on his.

"So was I," he replied. "Still am."

"But if this is love…" she whispered, fingers tightening around his, "don't let go."
