We sat in a empty restaurant, Zayn was texting and I was tracing the top of my glass that had cola in it.

"So... favorite colour?"

"Don't talk to me" Zayn snapped and I rolled my eyes.

"Well, listen here, honey, we're both being forced into something we don't want to do, so we might as well be as civilized as we can be or else we're going to spend the rest of our days with you six feet under the fucking ground and me stomping on that mobile of yours"

He glared at me before he shoved his phone into his pocket, "Just so you know, I hate you"

"I hate you too, now, let's establish some ground rules that we'll live by until we can figure out how to get out of this mess, yeah?"

"What sort of ground rules?"

"Well... umm... no touching of any kind"

"That's a done deal" he chuckled.

"We have to also spend our free time trying to find out a way to actually get out of this mess, deal?"

"Deal"

 "Well, that was easier than I thought. Now... I wonder how the fuck we're going to do this shit."

"Obviously we fake it until we can break it."

"With rhymes like that, you should be a rapper." I sass him as I leaned back in my chair, "Who are you texting?" I asked, staring at his phone.

He sighs, "My girlfriend."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, your parents are trying to make you marry some girl - when you already have a girlfriend?" I asked, a bit pissed that I was probably ruining these two lives - as well as my own.

"Yeah-"

"Why would they do that? Me I kind of understand and hate that I understand it, but you - what's with your parents?"

"They think she's a bad influence on me and things."

"Dude, I'm sorry about your girl, but maybe... we could bring her into this." I smirked, leaning forward in my chair as he does too with an smirk as well.

"How do you mean?"

"Well, not sure if you have realized it yet or not, but I'm an evil genius."

"A little bit cocky there-"

"Oh, you need to be cocky in this world honey. If you want to survive, you gotta try to strive and be better than everyone, or else they will walk all over you." 

He tilts his head to the side and stares at me curiously, "It sounds like you're talking from experience." 

"From my world, I'm the piece of shit everyone looks down on. I either need to follow the rules and be your bitch, or be my own bitch. What choice would you choose?"

"Uh..."

My phone beeps and I pull it out of my purse, "Looks like this is cut short Boo." I mused, standing up as I leaned forward, cupping his chin as I put my lips to his ear, "There's photographers outside and we need to seem like a couple, so don't flip and have a man period on me. Gotta jet mate, I have another affair to attend." pulling back he grabs onto my hand and stands up also, our faces an inch away from me.

"I thought we were going to talk." 

Flashes covered everything and I cupped his cheek with a cheeky smile on my face, "Oh darling, you'll need to learn that I don't stay in a place long enough for something to happen when I don't want to talk about it. Especially when I haven't thought out an evil genius plan."

"You have an evil look in your eye-"

"Because I'm going to be the rebeliest rebel ever, and both of our parents will have to agree that I'm not good for you."

"What-" I smirked, pulling back as I slapped him across the face and dumped the jug of cola on him.

He gasps in shock as I glared at him, "My mother's given you my number, use it when you're alone in two days. I'll get some shit together as well as people and I'll come up with the plan." I say, making big hand movements as I tried to look angry and the flashing lights went insane.

"O-okay. I'm not sure what's going on, but I'll leave it in your hands because of that look in your eyes-" my mouth drops as I tried to look offended.

"YOU BETTER TRUST ME!" I yelled, dumping the bowl of spaghetti over him as I stormed out of the restaurant, the back way and ran into the waiting car that was waiting for me.

"So, how did the date go?"

"I'm going to fuck up his shit Rico. Our parents will just have to stop the wedding."

"Are you sure about this? I don't-"

"Rico, I am getting out of this thing, okay? I don't want to be tied down to someone I don't love. I want to be free until I find the right guy."

"Chica, you know what you're doing. I'll support you, just... make sure you're doing the right thing and don't try to screw your life up."

My fingers drummed against my leg as I bit my lip, "What am I meant to do, Rico?"

"That's up to you sweet heart."

This is not going to be a walk in a park, is it?
