Chapter 1

Today was Valentine's Day. You were already sick of it because every time you walked into the school, you would see a lot of couples making out. You thought that you would get made fun of for not having a Valentine's, and as expected, you did. 

"Oh my...I hate Valentine's Day!" You whined. "Why would you say that?" Your best friend questioned. "Look at all the couples kissing...I get chills. Plus, I don't even have a Valentine, how am I going to enjoy Valentine's Day if I don't even have a partner?!" "I'm sure you will find someone soon, or maybe today." You let out a small chuckle. 

"You think I can get a partner when I'm getting bullied daily, and I look like this?" You ask Jiyeon. "You look fine, I don't know what your on." She says, scrolling through her phone.  You sighed. "I mean, I'd like to get some chocolates or flowers too!" "Don't worry, there's probably someone who loves you but you don't know it." Your best friend says, assuring you. 

"I'd be surprised." Suddenly, your best friend's boyfriend calls out to her. "Hey, your boyfriend is here. Go see him, I'm going to head to class." You say, trying to move on from your previous conversation. 

She leaves as you head back into the building. Several couples were sitting nearby but many girls gave chocolates to a certain boy, Hwang Hyunjin. 

You knew him for a while now since he was your bully. He's been mean to you ever since middle school. 

"Hyune, I hope you like my chocolates. I made them myself!"

"Me too, try mine and you'll see how good they are."

Many girls crowded in front of him as they were offering him chocolates and other gifts. Some of them being in heart boxes, some of them being in plastic bags, and some of them even being in huge gift bags. He pushed the chocolates and raised his head to them. "Sorry girls, but I'm already in a relationship." he replied.

"What? But with whom?" All of the girls in front of him started complaining. "With her." You turned around, curious by his answer since you wanted a little laugh, and saw that he was pointing at you. "You're in a relationship with...Y/n?" "What?! I thought you hated her." "No way!" Everyone started grabbing out their phones to video what was about to happen. 

"Yes, that's right...besides, I need to talk to her." Hyunjin said, forcing a smile. He stood up and took your arm to take you somewhere else. "Can you explain to me what just happened?" You asked with a disgusted face.

"Look, I know I bully you whatever but I'm not going to stop bullying you but I just wanted them to leave me alone for once and you are the only one who doesn't have feelings for me." He explains.

"I don't think I'm the only one, but let's move on." You reply. He rolls his eyes. "Would you mind being my fake girlfriend?" You were stunned by his words. "Excuse me?" 

"Only for a little while!" he began as he put his finger on your lips to stop you from complaining or saying anything. "and then if you start liking someone which they will probably never like you back you can tell me I'll find someone else." he finished while laughing. You sighed as you put your hand on your forehead. 

Is this man serious? There for sure are more girls that don't have feelings for him, he's just not opening his eyes wide enough. You thought about it for a second. It could help you gain more popularity in the school and you won't just be known as the girl who gets bullied. 

"Fine." You say. "Wait, are you seriously agreeing to this?" He asked you, he felt that you were unsure. "Yes, stop asking questions now do you want me to do this or not?" you said, trying to sound cold.

Hyunjin laughed, "You know how many girls would die to be in your spot right now?" "Oh my goodness can you shut the fuck up? If your going to keep asking these stupid questions, find someone else." You said, annoyed.

"Ok, ok. Chill. So we'll start this tomorrow?" He asked you. "Sure, I guess." You replied.
