Faked

Chapter four

Natalie
What?!? Lottie was gay?!? Nat was weirdly happy. But before she could think about it anymore, Lottie came back with the pizza

Lottie
Nat looked almost happy when Lottie walked back in, maybe she was just enjoying the movie. Lottie sat the pizza down on the coffee table and opened the box before sitting down next to Nat.
"Oh, almost forgot, can I get your number?"
"Uh, um, yeah sure, do you have like paper?" Asked Nat
"You can just put it in my phone" said Lottie, handing Nat her phone. She could feel her leg touching Nat's, her skin warm, her cheeks red, Nat looked up at Lottie To see her already looking at Nat. Neither of them broke eye contact for a-few seconds, Lottie looked into Nat's piercing eyes and wavy blonde hair, she never realised how pretty Nat was.

Natalie
Nat looked into Lottie's deep brown eyes, how her black hair fell around her face, their legs still touching. She could feel her cheeks going red and looked away quickly.

Lottie
Nat broke eye contact with Lottie and grabbed piece of pizza.
"I'm cold, I'm gonna go grab a blanket" said Lottie
"Ok" said Nat
Lottie got up and headed towards a wardrobe in the corner of the room before opening it and pulling out a fluffy white blanket. Then heading back to the couch. She lay half of the blanket over herself, handing the other half to Nat, who had now finished her slice of pizza
"Thanks" said Nat
Taking the blanket and awkwardly positioning it over herself. Lottie purposely lent back, so her leg was back to touching against Nat's.
"So how are you liking the movie?" Asked Lottie, sitting up
"Yeah, it's good" replied Nat, turning back to the screen.

A little while later, Nat stood up
"Where are you going?" Asked Lottie
"Uh, just to the bathroom" said Nat
"Where is it exactly?" Nat asked
"The closest one is upstairs, second room on the left"
" thanks" said Nat

Natalie
Nat headed up the stairs to the bathroom. She walked past a huge room with the door open and stopped to look in. Lottie's room. The walls were white, with fairy lights hanging around. Her desk sat in the corner, the mirror that hung in-front was adorned with pictures of Lottie and the team. Makeup was left out scattered around the desk. A notebook sat in the centre with some pens placed on top.

Her bed was in the middle of her room, sat against the wall. It was big, it couldn't have fit in Nat's room, that's for sure. It wasn't made, the light pink duvet was everywhere and her pillows were all over the bed. Nat laughed, she never expected Lottie to be this, messy.

Nat carried on past the room and walked into the bathroom, Van was texting her but she didn't want to seem uninterested in the movie.
Van
Van- Nat, what's happening??
Van- Nat???
Van-????
Van- I swear to God if you guys are making out
Van- Nat? Hello??
Nat- calm down I'm here
Van- what was happening??
Nat- we were just watching the movie
Van- ugh that's so boring
Van- you sure you weren't making out?
Nat- ew, no, just the movie
Van- let me know when something interesting happens
Nat- fuck off
Stupid Van, like what the fuck, plus even if she wanted to date Lottie, she never could, Lottie wouldn't like her. Nat turned off her phone and walked out of the bathroom before heading back downstairs
"There you are, I paused the movie for you" said Lottie
"Oh, thanks" said Nat, walking over to the couch and sitting back down, slightly closer to Lottie, so their legs were still touching. Nat sat back slightly, so Lottie's hand was just a-few centimetres away from Nat's leg. 'Oops' thought Nat. Well she couldn't move back now that would be rude! It was an accident anyway.... Yeah an 'accident.' Lottie turned the movie back on, trying not to notice how close her hand was to Nat's thigh.
"I'm gonna go outside to smoke" said Nat
"I'll come with you" said Lottie
"Oh, ok" said Nat
"Follow me" said Lottie
Nat followed Lottie through the house, it was huge, everything looked so new and clean.
"Hurry up" said Lottie grabbing Nat's hand
Nat blushed, why was Lottie holding her hand?? It was probably nothing, I mean she was walking slowly.
They arrived at two huge glass sliding doors. Lottie slid one side open and led Nat out to a huge wooden porch. Lottie sat down on the first step that lead down to a huge grassy garden. Nat followed sitting down one stair up from her. Lottie was still holding Nat's hand
"Uh Lottie" said Nat, looking down at their hands
"Oh right sorry" said lottie, looking away to hide her blush. Nat reached into her jean pocket, taking out a packet of cigarettes, offering one to Lottie which she took before grabbing one herself.
"Here" said lottie, offering Nat a cherry red lighter after lighting her own cigarette.
"Oh, thanks" said Nat.
"So, what's your deal?" Asked Lottie
"Huh?" Asked Nat
"What's your deal?"
"What's my deal, what's your deal?" Asked Nat
"Miss fucking perfect hey?"
"I wish my life was perfect" said Lottie
"I guess we have that in common" said Nat puffing out a cloud of smoke. Nat looked over at lottie. The way the moonlight shone off her face. They way her eyes sparkled, the way her lips held around her cigarette. She looked good. She looked really good.

Lottie
Lottie could feel Nat looking at her. Normally she would say something, but instead she looked over at Nat, who looked away quickly as soon as she saw lottie turning her head around. Lottie looked at Nat. She was beautiful. And she looked great in her jacket. She looked at her eyes, her lips, she looked good. She looked really good.
"Take a picture, it'll last longer" Nat scoffed
"Sorry" said Lottie

Lottie put out the end of her cigarette on the grass and Nat did the same.
"Wanna go back in?" Asked Lottie
"Yeah, sure" said Nat.
They stood up and Nat followed Lottie back to the living room where they resumed their position on the couch.
"Hey Nat?"
"Yeah"
"I need your help with something" said Lottie
"Huh?" Said Nat
" you need a tutor, and I can help with that, but I need something in return"
"Your acting like you want me to kill someone"
"No, no" said Lottie
"I need you to date me"
"What the fuck"
"No not actually, I mean like fake date me, I keep getting hit on at parties and stuff and I-"
"I need to go" said Nat, grabbing her bag and walking quickly to the door.
"No Nat come back" shouted Lottie. Running after her, but when she got to the door, Nat was gone.
"Shit" said Lottie to herself. What was she thinking. She was such an idiot.
She tried not to panic, and started cleaning the living room. Turning off the tv, throwing away the empty pizza box, putting away the blanket, before sitting down on the couch. What had she done? Lottie's phone buzzed.
Natalie
Nat- I'm in.
