*Bailey POV*

'Man he's cute' I thought to my self as I was staring at Luke Cavanaugh. "Bailey, Bailey, Bailey," the lady at the counter said. "Oh sorry. Thank you," I said grabbing my smoothie off the counter. I looked over at Luke. Good he wasn't paying attention, he's talking to his friend. Unless he was talking about how stupid I looked. I started to walk away keeping an eye on him. Next thing I knew there was smoothie all over me. "Oh I'm so sorry, not," a random jerk said evilly grinning. I faked a smile as everyone stared with silent chuckles.

*Luke POV*

"Oh I'm so sorry, not," some guy said to Bailey Hastings evilly grinning. She gave a grin back. Everyone was laughing and staring, including me. "That's it," my best bud Adrian said. "That's what?" I asked. "You lost the bet. The deal was the loser had to fake a relationship with a girl of the winners choice. You have to fake Bailey," he said. "Okay, she seems easy, how long," I said confidently. "3weeks," he said. "I can do that," I lied. There was no way I could fake a relationship for three weeks with someone I have no feelings for. Well she looks dumb enough, it could work. "Well time starts now, go help her," Adrian said. I jogged next to Bailey napkin in hand. "Here let me help you with that," I said wiping the smoothie of her dress. I saw her face turn red. I faked a smile and threw the napkin away. I looked at her. She hadn't moved she was red staring at me. "You ok," I asked her. "Ya fine," she replied. This was awkward, but I had to keep growing. "You me here tonight 6:30 don't be late." "O-o-ok," she stuttered and I walked out the door. Well I guess I have a date tonight. This will be a long 3 weeks

It's been 2 3/4 hours and I'm still processing the fact I have spend three weeks pretending to be someone's boyfriend that I have no feelings for. I grabbed my Under Armor sweatshirt off my dining room chair, put my phone in my pocket and walked out the door to meet up with Bailey. I only plan on this "date" being no more than a half hour. The one minute earlier today felt more like 5 so a half hour will feel like a day. I was hoping maybe she wouldnt like me back but based on her reaction earlier i dont think that will ever happen. I pulled into a parking lot where there was a big glowing sign the said Groove which was the popular smoothie hangout for Malcom High. Then i walked into the brick building and sat myself down at a table. About 3 minutes later bailey walked in wearing a sheer black and white blouse tied in the front, light wash denim shorts, a faux leather bag, and her hair was pulled into a high-ish ponytail. "Hey," she said. I stood up and gave her a hug. We walked over to the counter together. "So what do like to get here?" I asked her. "it kinda sounds weird but i'm not really trying to impress anyone. "uh the pomegranate-raspberry is my absolute favorite. "Really, mine too!" and I was being honest.

It was the end of the date that wasn't as bad as i thought it was gonna be but i still dont know if i can last.. "Bye, I guess i'll see you in school tomorrow," she said. "Ya bye," i said giving her a fake friendly hug and then parted our ways to our cars. I turned the key and started it up and drove my way home.
