broken promise

nine

Y/n woke up the next day feeling an empty space next to her. Jacob had left during the night because he knew he was going to regret waking up the next day with her.

Y/n was slightly disappointed but didn't show it because she was good at hiding emotions and didn't cry like the other girls.

She decided to go for a walk to clear her headspace so she put on her lululemon activewear and went out. She lived in a small town and knew everyone there so she was surprised when she saw a strange guy at the park. She wasn't stupid, everyone knows guys at parks are hella sus but something drew her to him anyway.

She started walking in his direction but not looking at him. He was just standing there, not doing anything in particular.

"Hi," he said.

"H-h-h-h-hi," y/n stumbled because she just met this man. He seemed about her age, maybe a few years older.

"Oh sorry, I'm Harry," he said, sensing her nervousness.

"I-I-I'm y/n,"

"Nice to meet you," Harry said in a friendly way. She was bout to walk away when "I need a favour," he said abruptly.

Y/n was confused but she didn't need to be anywhere so why not. What's the worst that could happen?

"I need you to fake date me," Harry said.

Y/n was shocked at what he said "Why?" she was getting confused now.

"I need to convince the paparazzi that I'm not dating Louis Tomlinson,"

"Who?"

"You don't know One Direction?"

"Nope," she said popping the p.

"Well, I'm Harry Styles, like the world-famous pop star singer, previously in the most famous boy band ever," he said.

She was still confused. "I've never heard of you,"

"Wow ok... So will you do me this favour?"

"What's in it for me?" y/n questioned.

"I'll pay you $100 a day,"

She thought to herself for a minute, why not do this?

"Fine, what do I have to do?"

"Great! Ok, give me your snap and we'll meet tomorrow" Harry said excitedly.

That night, y/n got a snap from Harry giving her an address and time.

She responded simply by saying 'bet'.

She woke up the next day and went to meet Harry at a small vintage cafe. It was a Sunday so she didn't have school. She saw Harry and went to sit with him, not seeing any paparazzi yet. They started off with some small talk, she wasn't good at that, and then ordered some food.

"So we're going to need some ground rules first," y/n said.

"What..." Harry said.

"Ok, so first of all, no kissing,"

"Deal," he said.

"No coming to my school,"

"Not a problem," he added. "No catching feelings," he said with a smirk.

"Yeah sure, I'll try not to," y/n said with a heavily sarcastic tone.

They talked back and forth a bit about a few more boundaries and a bit about each other to make the fake dating more believable. And then she went home. What has she gotten herself into?

a/n

this took a turn wow. I wonder how this is going to affect her and Jacob. do you ship y/n and Jacob or y/n and Harry or Harry and Jacob?
