"Okay guys. Look cute" the photographer said. "Bruh I'm not a model. I'm just a regular girl. I can't get any cuter" I said rolling my eyes. "Just pretend to be cute enough and maybe we can touch it up later" he said in a harsh tone. "You know what" I said getting mad. "Forget this!" I said snapping. "I cannot deal with his attitude anymore today. Use what you have. I'm out" I said walking away from Chris. "Aye aye" he said walking behind me. "I know this is hard Brooke but I need this. It's benefiting us both" he spoke holding my arms. I looked up at him with pleading eyes. He stood over me and waited for me to give in. Chris has been a friend of mine for about a year since I met him at the mall. His PR thought it would be great if we pretended to date to give people something to talk about and to promote his new album "Love Pyramid" (not real btw only for the story). I agreed because at the time I was a fan who thought "why not, I get to be his girlfriend!" Without thinking it through. I deal with rude and arrogant people everyday. I sighed and looked down. "Chris, this is hard for me, I know I agreed to do this but.. It's hard. People like him", I said looking at the photographer who was snapping pics, "it's hard. I know. But listen " he said lifting my face. "You know I got your back. Just a little longer" He spoke. "Then we can stop pretending to be in love" he said chuckling. I looked down again and sighed. "I'm not pretending" I said to myself. "Huh?" He said looking down at me. "Oh, nothing, are we done here dude... You got your pics?" I said looking around Chris. "Yep. Buhbye" he said packing up not even looking up. I rolled my eyes and went to get my shoes. "Meet me out front Simóne" Chris said walking to his dressing room to get comfy so we could leave.
I walked out front and stopped in the lobby in front of the doors to leave and there stood Chris. "So you tryna match my style?" He said looking at my outfit. I was wearing a crop top hoodie and black leggings with white converse. Chris had on black ripped jeans with a blue hoodie and white vans. "You copied me" I said smiling. "Ok. Ready to be my girl ?" He asked smiling. "Of course" I said giggling. He grabbed my hand and we walked out. "Chris! Chris! Are you two officially engaged?" The paps asked. Chris smiled and looked down at me and my cheeks began to burn. "You liked the sound of that?" He asked raising his eye brows. "You can't be thinking of really..." I said. He smiled and opened the car door for me. I got in and watched him move through paps to get in. "Let's get rings..." He said. "Chris what? My family would be pissed if they thought..." I said before he interrupted me. "Look. I thought about all this before they even said something. Tell your family that they are just friendship rings and that paps are saying anything for money. Which isn't false. They can really be our friendship rings but no one would ever know but us and our family" he said making me think. "Fine..." I said "nothing to expensive Chris. Forreal!" "Yea yea"he said smiling.
