Let's just Fake it for now

Lilia's POV

Rivaille suddenly popped out of nowhere and told me to come with him, since we were practically on bad terms but I do not wish to make it more awkward I just followed him.

While we were walking in the hallway headed to the cafeteria, students kept gossiping wether we are already dating...the human mouth is so fast that it beat the light.

"So Lilia..." Rivaille hesitated and didn't even looked at me and continued walking, I lowered my head and sighed

"What?" I questioned

"Since when did you say Yes?" He answered back with another question, I knew it, he's also bothered by the spreading gossips, I won't be letting Abby pass by this later.

"That was nothing, Abby was just over exaggerating earlier, and it lead to this mess" I explained

"Oh..." I saw that he lowered his shoulders, like he was devastated, so he was hoping that it was true? This guy seriously!

"Hoii Constantine.." A senior member from the Basketball team laid his right arm on Rivaille's shoulder "So the two of you are dating now huh? You guys sure are close" He continued to tease

"Rivi! Treat us to a celebration on getting a girlfriend!" Other members of the basketball team circled us, shouting congrats, teasing us, other's saying that they won the bet and many more etc.

Rivaille pulled me out of that curvle and said that he wants an alone time with me which made his peers' teasing gazes amplify. How am I getting out of this mess?

"So um...Lilia, how do we do this?" He asked for help too

"Honestly I do not know, let's just say the truth that we're not dating" I said with a matching grin

"We can't do that..."

"Huh? Why not? All of this is just a misunderstanding!" I said shocked that he does not want to say the truth

"I don't want to be embarrassed...in front of people...again" He whispered the last word that's why I put on a just-tell-me-why-or-I'll-kick-you-where-it-hurts look and he tried to avoid looking at me

"Ahhh, let's have a plan okay? Okay?" He said trying to fake a smile looking worried

"Lay it on" I said and crossed my arms

"Let's say that we're dating then break up after a few months...TWO MONTHS! There okay?" He said like...seriously worried, the hik is his problem anyway

"What's in it for me? Obviously you're the one who has the upper hand here" I raised a brow

"I'll buy you meals everyday..."

"More"

"We'll go to movies.."

"More"

"I'll buy you a puppy"

"Cool"

And with that contract, I'll be able to save my money for college, be able to watch my favorite movies without spending, and I'll get a free puppy, nothing wrong right? It's give and take anyway

"So for now I'll see you off to your class, we'll be acting like a couple and all" he said scratching his head blushing, he's enjoying this

"Acting" I emphasized it causing him to frown

Why does fate hate me so much that it lead to this mess...but then again...I'll get a free puppy.

~~~I'll make sure not to make this cliche~~~coz I mean...Cliche~~~
