Our Arranged Hookup

Chapter 1: Nice to Meet You

"What? Yes! Of course!"

A dark haired woman jumped up and down with excitement as she held her cell phone to her ear.

"Ok. We'll be there! Thank you so much!"

The woman hung up and squealed as she ran up the stairs. She reached a door at the end of the hall on the second floor before kicking it open.

"Tekka!"

A young man with short brown hair sat on his bed reading manga. There were clothes and Arizona bottles scattered all over the floor. He had a lollipop stick in his mouth, and it clearly wasn't his first due to the Dum Dum wrappers on his bed.

"Yeah?"

"Guess what?!"

"What?"

"King Jameson just called me, and he told me that you were selected to meet with his daughter!"

"Huh?"

"King Jameson's daughter, don't act like you never heard of the Royal Selection! It's been a long dream of mine to have you selected. We're gonna be rich now!"

"Oh! Are you serious?"

"Yes! You have to be at the castle before 9 AM tomorrow!"

"Okay...I should probably get my sleep schedule in check now huh?"

"Can you believe it?" She struck a triumphant pose, "Tori Viotto, the richest woman alive!"

Tekka sneered as his mother danced across his room, "You don't even care about me do you? You just want the money..."

"Of course I'm happy you're going to get married, but I definitely care about the money more!" She ran towards him and hugged him, "I have to pick out some clothes for you to wear!"

Tori ran out of his room at an alarming speed.

Tekka sat up before looking at his phone, "I wonder which one of his daughters wants to meet with me?"

He found himself actually starting to grow excited at the idea of marrying a rich girl. Well, just the getting married part.

Being a young man on his way to college, he had no time to worry about things such as love and romance. He had cast those thoughts out of his mind as a freshman. At the tender age of fourteen, he accepted the fact that he was going to die alone. As you can imagine, this sprang hope into the young man's life.

He laid down in his bed and let out a sigh of relief as he drifted off into the comforting world of sleep. Perhaps the next time he did this, he would have a companion.

It was currently 8 in the morning, and Tori was up running around the house, getting dressed.

"Tekka! Wake up!"

No response.

She looked in the mirror, checking for any errors in her clothes. She had on a maroon dress with a short skirt and some black heels. Her hair was tied into a bun that sat atop her head.

"Perfect."

She ran up the stairs leading to Tekka's room before banging on the door. "Get up boy! We're going to be late!"

Tekka jumped out of bed with drool coming out of his mouth, "Oh shit..." He frantically reached for his phone and saw that it was 8:07 AM. "Oh...I have a ton of time left. She made it seem like we were screwed." He walked out of his room and went into the bathroom.

He saw a black t-shirt and a crimson dress shirt hanging from the shower rails, with a pair of crimson jeans.

"Must be my outfit." He looked at the colors of the clothes and laughed, "Quite the demonic color scheme...I like it."
