Depict My Love

Part 1: Chapter 3

"I need you ot be my girlfriend Y/n."
The silence was defining as awkwardness creeped into the stationary car. Y/n had felt shock run through her whole body, nearly electrocuting her. She froze, staring into Bangchan's desperate eyes. This guy couldn't be for real right?
"WHAT?!" y/n screeched piercing the silence. Bangchan flinched slightly and followed with a faint awkward smile.
"Listen, it's not what it sounds like let me explain."
"Your being serious???" SHE cried shakily, alarmed.
"I need a fake girlfriend, and..."
He hesitated as Y/n shook her head gently. Why did he need a fake girlfriend? Why did he need HER as his fake girlfriend?
"Well, my father wants me to get engaged with this girl who I totally dislike and-"
As he kept yapping, making the situation worse and worse, Y/n could only think of exit strategies.
"Wait you want me to pretend to be your girlfriend so your father doesn't make you marry this psycho girl?"
Bangchan faintly nodded, grimacing and expecting resistance.
"You know that's crazy right, I don't even know you. Plus I wouldn't wanna be your real girlfriend if I was being paid."
Y/n huffed and rolled her eyes.
"There is something about you, I don't know what but my mind is telling me your the perfect person for the job"
"What a bunch a nonsense, why should I help you for no reason?"
She crossed her arms dissatisfied whilst watching his expression closely.
"Plus i would never even date a guy, forget you, it would be too bait."
He raised an eyebrow
"What if I pay you."
That caught Y/n's attention, but she knew her worth and wasn't going to be sold just like that. She reached for the door handle but a swift click locked it.
"Your crazy, let me leave!"
"Ten thousand pounds. I'll give you 10 grand"
Y/n had never made contact with 10 grand as a post graduate, it was a symbol of success in her book. But it wasn't enough.
"I don't think so."
"15 grand?"
"Not even close!"
"30 grand?"
Y/n's eyes lightened, she was about to accept before the cogs in her brain started running, she would need more than that to be bribed into playing his girlfriend.
"Per month."
"What?"
"You heard me, 30 grand per month if you want me to play pretend with you."
"No way! That's crazy, you know that right"
"Then forget it" she crossed her arms reassuring control into the atmosphere.
Eventually he sighed and gave in.
"Now let me go over some rules."
As he continued talking y/n's eyes grew more fearsome of what she had gotten herself into. Moving into a penthouse, attending public events as his date, meeting his parents, and more and more commanding rules.
"Wait I have to live with you?"
That is what frightened her most, giving up her apartment. She had worked years to feel at home there, leaving it behind would be like losing a sense of self. "I can't do that, I have my own home"
Bangchan froze for a second.
"I'm sorry but I've already told my father my girlfriend lives with me. If she suddenly moved out it would be suspicious."
Y/n sighed and finally agreed.
The drive to y/n's home was silent, she left the car and gave an awkward wave, before heading up to her flat. Y/n followed her usual night time routine; changing, eating, showering,brushing her teeth, and skin care. Whilst in the shower, she pondered over how much her life would change.
Y/n had never seen herself as the fake girlfriend of a hot googlieplexillionaire but I guess now she would become one.
