(Theresa's POV)
Yeah about the part of being madly in love?
He told me that some people are saying we weren't going to last and that brings doubt to others saying what if we were faking it.
So the plan was act as if we didn't know about it then go out privately, the type that looks private but you are fully aware that that place is packed with paparazzi ready to take pictures if us together. To the media, it's a quite private time together as couples but in real time, it's public appearance.
"But I thought this engagement thing was to get your mother off your back?"
"It still is but now we also have to make it real because who can capture the notorious workaholic playboy?"
"So people have to believe also. Right. They have to so that's your plan? How is it going to work and why do they need to think that we're madly in love?"
"That's my plan and anyone who can make a player want to settle down, that person is worth dying for and anyone worth dying for,is someone your madly in love with."
"O..kay. I don't still see the reason even if I do. I still feel there's more to your motive."
"That's all." He smiled and I could tell he was hiding something
"There's definitely something else." I folded my arms.
He chuckled "Aren't you curious as a cat."
"If you want me to tag along you're going to tell me."
"You're ordering me?" He laughed
"You're not the only one who can order people around." He laughed out loud
"There's nothing. It's nothing much and I'm not telling you."
"Fine." I answered
"Fine?"
"Yeah, fine." I repeated
"Okay, it's so unlike you to drop an argument. So fine what?"
"Fine I'm not going."
"You're not going?"
"Mhmm. You are not going to tell me, I'm not going with you."
"You are."
"NoPe." I popped the P
He sighed "You have your mind made up don't you?" I nodded after he asked
"I want to get them all off my back, the media including. If they see that I fell in love and madly in love, by the time the contract is over and we end it as a breakup everything goes back to normal which is me not dating and not planning to date ever. So it will give them the mindset and the perfect story that the only shot I gave love, it broke means I don't think I'll ever be ready to love again, others may have the thought that I fell too deeply that I can't stand giving my heart to anyone else except you, while some may think that I finally concluded that love is not meant for me."
He finished and I was...
"You have everything planned out already don't you?"
"Have my whole life planned out." He said proudly
"Really? Care to fill me in?"
"Focus on my job, never get married cause it's a baggage and not having kids because they're distractions."
"So.. let me get this straight you see marriage as a baggage and children as distractions?"
"Of course, I was only being honest and besides you asked."
