Jaylee's Art Gallery
Seth : Babe, we've been dating for over a year and I still haven't exactly met your parents. Jaylee : Yes you have. Seth : As Valerie's brother not as your boyfriend. Jaylee : ... Seth : Let's set a date. Jaylee : I'm not ready. Seth : You've been saying that all year. What's the real reason we can't tell your parents about our relationship? Jaylee : .....I can't tell you. Seth : What do you mean? Jaylee : .... Seth : Babe, whatever it is, tell me. Jaylee : Okay but- please don't tell anyone! This stays between you and me. Seth : I promise. Jaylee : .....My father is a mafia leader. Seth : ... Jaylee : I didn't tell you because dangerous. Seth : And? Jaylee : What do you mean and?! My father is never going to accept someone who comes from the outside! I'm scared he'll kill you once he finds out... Seth : But he knows me. Jaylee : My father wants to marry me off to someone in the mafia. If he knows you're in the way, he's going to kill you with no shame. Seth : And there's nothing you can do? Jaylee : No Seth : Then? Jaylee : I don't know Seth... Seth : I love you Jaylee. I want to be with you forever but what are we going to do? Jaylee : Keep hiding it. Seth : Forever? Seriously? Jaylee : I don't have a solution right now. Seth : The thing is you've had a whole year to think of a solution and you haven't. Jaylee : It's not that easy Seth. Seth : Then what future does this relationship have? Jaylee : I don't know.... Seth : That breaks my heart. Jaylee : Seth, I love you so much and I don't want to lose you but I don't know what to do! What can we do?! Seth : Run away with me. Jaylee : My dad is going to find you. He's going to find us and he's going to kill you. I don't want that... Seth : I don't want to keep hiding for the rest of our lives Jaylee. Jaylee : Trust me, I don't either but I don't know what to do... Seth : .... Jaylee : Let's not give up. Let's look for a way. Seth : I want you to think. Jaylee : About what exactly? Seth : Our relationship. Jaylee : Seth... Seth : I love you and I know you love me but I need you to think about the future of this relationship. You and I both. Jaylee : .... Seth : -kiss- I'll talk to you later. Jaylee : Seth... Seth : -walks away-
Jaylee I really don't know what to do. I don't want to put him at any type of risk. I love him too much...

-phone call-
Ashton : Hey dad! Mr Monroe : You didn't forget your sister's wedding did you? Ashton : No I'm already in Los Angeles. I'm on my way. I just need to figure out how to hide from the press. Mr Monroe : Okay. Oh and by the way Hannah will be your date. Ashton : My what? Mr Monroe : Your date to the wedding. Ashton : Actually- I brought my girlfriend with me so that won't be necessary. Mr Monroe : You have a girlfriend? Ashton : I do Mr Monroe : Okay then I'll see you two here. Ashton : Bye dad -ends call-
Ashton Alright......I lied.
Oh shit!
The paparazzi...
I ran into the closest place I saw which was an art gallery. I ran in and closed the door.
Jaylee : The fuck do you think you're doing?! Ashton : I need you to help me! Jaylee : And why should I help you? I don't know you. Ashton : Because you're a nice person. Jaylee : You don't know me. I'm not as nice as you think. Ashton : Maybe I don't know you but you know me. Jaylee : No I don't? Ashton : That's very offensive. Jaylee : How so? Ashton : Oh come on you really don't know who I am? Jaylee : No Ashton : You're kidding right? Jaylee : No Ashton : Well then...
-camera flashes-
Jaylee : Why is the paparazzi here? Ashton : If you knew who I was you'd know. Jaylee : You're famous? Ashton : I'm Ashton. Jaylee : Ashton who? Ashton : -eye roll- Ashton Monroe! Jaylee : Don't roll your fucking eyes at me or I'm kicking you out! Ashton : No! I'm sorry! Jaylee : Why are you running from them? Ashton : I don't want to be attacked with numerous questions. Jaylee : I see. Ashton : Hey are you single? Jaylee : Why? Ashton : I need to know. Jaylee : What for? Ashton : Are you single yes or no? Jaylee : No Ashton : Great do you want to be my fake girlfriend? Jaylee : You're what? I just said I'm not single! Ashton : Long story short. My sister is getting married and my dad wants to pair me up with some chick who's obsessed with me and I kinda told him I brought my girlfriend with me but you see I don't have one. Jaylee : Sounds like a you problem. Ashton : Oh come on! Please? Jaylee : Again, why should I help you? Ashton : I'll do whatever you want in return. Jaylee : Why are you asking me? Ashton : I don't want an annoying chick who's obsessed with me and considering you don't listen to good music- Jaylee : Excuse me? Ashton : if you don't listen to my music, your music taste is shit. Jaylee : Or maybe your music is just shit. Ashton : How dare you! Jaylee : Lewis Calpaldi all the way! Ashton : You're that depressed? Jaylee : Better than that annoying ass song "Oh I've been shaking I love it when you go crazy -" Ashton : Glad to know you find my song annoying. Jaylee : Oh you're that guy? Ashton : Yes I'm "that guy " Jaylee : Oh Ashton : Yeah Jaylee : -smile- Ashton : -eye roll- Jaylee : What did I say about rolling your eyes at me. Ashton : Look- I really need you to help me please. Jaylee : What will you do in return? Ashton : I'll forever be in debt with you. Jaylee : Tempting. Ashton : Please? Jaylee : .....
Jaylee I'm all about helping people. That's why I'm leaning on helping him. What consequence can this bring anyway?
Jaylee : Fine. Ashton : Can I know your name fake girlfriend? Jaylee : Jaylee Carson. Ashton : Well Jay, thank you for helping me. Jaylee : Hopefully I won't regret it. Ashton : You might. Jaylee : ... Ashton : You have to come with me starting now. Jaylee : Now? Ashton : I told my dad I brought my girlfriend so you have to stick with me. Jaylee : Okay just let me do a quick phone call. Ashton : Alright.
