BELLE
“Hello?” I rubbed my eyes and looked at the digital clock placed beside the bed. 9 am.
“Belle, can you come over here in my place?”
“Uhh sure. What time do you want?”
“Is it okay if you’ll be here by 9:30?”
“Yeah. I’ll be there. Bye.” I hung up the phone and went to the bathroom to brush my teeth and take a shower. After that, I dressed myself with a skirt and velvet top, paired with black flats. It seemed like forever when I did my routine but that's how it really goes anyway. I rushed out of the hotel and hailed a cab outside. I jumped in the cab and it took me to Staci’s. When I got there, I saw her standing at the front door of their house. I paid the driver and jumped off the cab and greeted her with a smile on my face. Hmm… It has been 3 days since I didn’t saw her nor talk to her.
“Hey Stace.” I greeted.
“Uhh hello. Come in.” She gestured me to the living room and I sat on the couch.
“So?”
“Greyson already talked to me about this. And it seems like you have to do this for his sake.” She took a deep breath and…
“What?” I asked with curiosity in my tone.
“Greyson wants you to be his girlfriend. Don’t react. Let me continue.” OHGOODNESS!
“If you watched E-News 3 days before, Greyson and Lauren were caught on their first date. I can give you the article. It has been reported in 3 news channels.” She gave me a newspaper and pointed an article on the lower portion.
“Goodness! Ohmy!” I muttered silently under my breath while reading.
“You’ll be forced to do this for his sake.”
“But w-why? Why do I need to do this? Why am I involved here anyway?” And with that, I stormed out of her place. For his sake? He can pick any other girls! And what would happen after that? I’ll get too much hate! He’s selfish! He only thinks what’s good for him! No, I won’t agree with that stupid thing. Why am I involved in his situation? I didn’t even did anything wrong to him. I’m not in a good mood today so it’s better to go back to the hotel.
When I got there, I walked towards the reception desk and asked for the key when I suddenly felt something. Right beside me was Justin (not Bieber! LMAO!) who was standing and his arm brushed mine which made me froze.
“Hey!”
“Oh it’s you! Hey Justin!” I felt my lips curving into a sweet smile as I glued my eyes on him.
“What are you---“
“Hey Belle!” And Elaine suddenly appeared and butted in. Nice ! -_-
“Who is he---Oh hi there!” She greeted him with a smile on her face.
“Hello!” He greeted back.
“I’m Elaine, Belle’s older sister. And you are?”
“Justin. Justin Michael.”
"She's really old than what you think." I mumbled to Justin and earned a melodic laugh escaping from his lips.
“So, is he your---“
“Shut your mouth, Elaine. I don’t wanna like to hear what you're going to say next."
“O...kay? Seems like you’re not really in a good mood today, huh?”
“Definitely.” I said and walked past her. Time to refresh my mind about this.

I rolled to the sides of the bed. Then, after few minutes, I stood up and paced back and forth. I actually thought that I was going insane.
I headed to La Colombe coffee shop and decided to take a coffee break. I ordered and looked around the place. Clean and not crowded; this is my first time here.
“Here’s your order, miss.”
“Thank you.” I smiled.
I put one-half teaspoon of sugar and stirred it. Just then I was about to sip it, a voice caught my attention.
“Yeah, you know what? I broke up with her because she’s a poser. Elvie is a poser!” He shouted through the phone and I sensed he’s not in a good mood. So I tried my best to get his attention and luckily, I did.
“What brings you here?”
“I came here to refresh my mind and forget my problem.”
“Ohh…” I replied.
“What do you want to talk about?” I asked.
“I want to talk about the 'girlfriend thingy'.” I looked to my right and there was Greyson standing next to me. He grabbed my hand and took me away from our table.
“Now what?” I raised an eyebrow, crossing my arms over my chest, shooting a grouchy look at him.
“Please, I want to do it, please.”
“Alright! If it’s only for your sake, then I’m not going to agree with it. You know you’re too selfish!”
“Fine! It’s for Lauren’s sake! Staci suggested this stupid thing and it seems like I have nothing to do with it ‘cause it’s the only choice left. And now, they’re telling me that it’s for my sake! But it’s not really for me, it’s for my girlfriend! And you’re telling me I’m selfish now? I'm just worried about her when something happens.”
“Yes, you are, indeed. What about me? What will likely happen to me? I’ll get hates! Do you know that?” And with that, he stayed silent.
“Maybe you’re right. I should’ve let myself think first. If you don’t want to, then don’t. You’re not forced to do this.” He said with disappointment in his tone and quickly left the café. Ohmygod, what have I done? I went back to the seat and continued sipping my coffee.
“Ohmygod! What have I done?” Yea, conscience is killing me. I’m not a hater of Lauren Westphalen, it’s just that I can’t believe that she reunited with Greyson and it’s their deepest dark secret. She’ll get hates from Greyson’s fans and I know Greyson doesn’t want that to happen.
“Uh, just chill?”
“Not a good idea.”
“Can I help you with that?”
“Oh sorry but this is a serious case and something really personal, Justin.” I apologized. But somehow I really wanted to tell the whole world about how bad the situation is.

GREYSON
“Okay, how long will this last?” She asked.
“Depends on how long the rumor between him and Lauren will stop.” Her eyes widened with what Staci said; same as mine.
“Ohgosh, if this would be forever, then don’t say---“I cut her off with a deathly glare, “I’m just stating an example, calm down.” I only huffed and looked away. She's overreacting, you know?
“I bet that this would only last for a couple of days and not months, so no worries. And are you done with that?” She questioned her and YN nodded as an answer.
“Good. You two can go now.”
“Wait, when will we start this ‘pretending thingy’?” I asked.
“Anytime you like. You can go now.”
Anytime we like? Huh, we don’t even want to start this thing sooner or later! I stepped out of her office and used the stairs and was about to open the main door of her house when a voice called me.
“Hey you, old-voiced guy!” I turned my back and raised an eyebrow, “What?”
“Nothing.”
“Stupid.” I murmured.
“Shithead! Dumbass! Douche bag! JERK!” She was insulting me, obviously.
"Shit."
The next thing I knew was something in the air flying and coming towards me. And yea, it hit me!
“You’re gonna pay for this, stupid hoe!"
