Fake Love • Nick Mara Fan Fiction • Completed

01 | The Contract

Melina stayed stiff not really knowing what to say to the offer she was given.

"I-I" She couldn't bring herself to speak.

"It's all for publicity to boost both Nicks and your ratings, it's a win-win situation" Simon continued, "and if you two actually do get in a relationship with each other that's even better".

"Deal" She nodded.

Simon leaned back with a smirk on his face, "All that's left is to sign the paper". He slid a piece of paper to her.

Melina signed the paper without looking at the fine print since Simon had just explained everything to her already.

"Alright, I'll have my assistant take you to meet the guys" He said and made a call on his phone.

Shortly after a lady came into the office, "come with me hun", her soft voice said.

She wore a suit, she was very appropriately dressed. Very professional looking.

"You'll be meeting the Nick in a few and uh" She looked down at Melinas wardrobe, "Are you sure you wanna meet him looking like that?".

She wore some jeans and a nice t-shirt with some converse shoes. She didn't see anything wrong with her outfit.

"You know what you don't have a choice" She turned Melina around taking her into a room.

The room was filled with people on their phones until they saw Melina, "ou" they said with a stank face.

"Honey..aren't you a model? You're supposed to dress nice at all occasions" A girl examined her body figure trying to figure what outfit exactly she should wear.

"She needs to be dressed in less than 20 minutes, do what you can with her and maybe put on some makeup" The lady pushed me a bit forward into the crowd of fashion designers.

They were all familiar, She's seen them in a couple shoots She's done.

"Alright come here, so I feel like a crop top will look good on you-" They all spoke taking multiple crop tops out of the racks putting them against Melina's body.

"This one looks good"

"Ou! Some fishnets yeesss"

"And maybe some joggers? Yes, yes..okay can someone please bring me some heels! Those shoes are horrid"

"Oh yes these are perfect..and her hair, we're gonna have to put it down..that ponytail is doing you wrong"

Let's just say Melina was suddenly extremely self conscious about herself.

"Put these on" A man handed her the clothes, she stood there in shock seeing it was one of her greatest idols, "Now!" He snapped her out of her trance and pushed her into a bathroom to change.

Melina put on the clothes, they fit her body well, complimenting her every curve. She stepped out of the bathroom seeing everyone's eyes on her. They all smiled in excitement.

"One more thing..a jacket" They put the jacket on her and it completed the look.

They put her hair down fixing it a bit.

"She doesn't need makeup, she's good"

Thank god, one good thing was finally said about her.

"Alright time to go" The lady smiled holding out her arm for me to take, "your clothes will be taken to your apartment don't worry".

"Also um what's your name?" Melina looked up at the lady who wasn't really that much older than her, maybe by a couple of years but she looked young.
