Arranged / Nick Mara

Chapter Two / The First Outing

Nick's POV

I could not believe this was happening.

Out of all people they had to pick Kiley Toro?!

I despised her and her fake kindness. I could tell she was a bitch under that fake smile.

I slammed the front door behind me as Edwin and I entered the PM house.

"Woah woah woah." Brandon said as I collapsed onto the couch and covered my face with my hands.

"Rough meeting?" Zion chuckled and I sighed.

"More than rough. Nick has to take date Kiley." Edwin said and I uncovered my face. Zion and Brandon stood there with their mouths in the shape of an O.

"Don't even get me started. Of course they had to pick one of the only people I cannot stand!" I exclaimed and Edwin crossed his arms.

"Kiley is so sweet I don't understand why you hate her." He sighed and Brandon nodded.

"True she's super nice and super hot dude you scored." Brandon added.

"Her niceness is so fake I can tell. She's a cold hearted bitch under that fake smile." I shook my head.

"Chill bro." Zion said and patted my leg. "Who knows it could be fun."

"No it will not be fun." I sighed and headed straight to my room and closed the door behind me.

Kiley's POV

"WHAT?!?" Genny screamed as I explained the meeting to her and Ila.

"I know!!" I yelled back as I plopped down onto her bed.

"I didn't even know they actually did that in this business." Ila said with her eyes wide.

"Me neither!" I exclaimed and groaned.

"Hey it's payback for calling him a douche. Who knows he could actually be a nice guy." Genny said.

"No. He told me in the meeting that he will never like me and he will not see me out of the times we have to." I explained and she dropped her jaw.

"I bet you could get him to fall for you." Genny said and hit her lip.

"No!! I do not want him to fall for me!" I yelled and threw a pillow at her.

"Hey it could be fun." Ila added and I rolled my eyes.

"You guys are awful." I groaned.

The Next Day

"Okay so all you guys have to do is go to the mall, walk around, hold hands, kiss a couple times, and then leave. Easy enough right?" Hayley explained to Nick and I in the back of a van.

"I have to kiss him?" I asked.

"I have to kiss her?" Nick said the same time as me.

"Yes you guys are dating! Chill out it'll be fine. Okay have fun!" Hayley said as the van came to a stop. I sighed and hopped out of the van with Nick following me.

"I can't believe we have to do this." Nick said and started to walk away without me.

"Hey remember I'm doing this for you so at least be decent towards me." I said as I chased after him.

"I don't have to do anything you say." He said and held the door open for me to enter the mall.

"Thanks." I said to be polite and he rolled his eyes at me.

"So if I get recognized just act nice and don't mention that we're 'dating' unless someone asks. Act shy about it." Nick explained to me and I nodded. Nick grabbed my hand and I quickly yanked mine away.
