P: the whole "I'm soulless" act. Ur just saying that because you don't know how to express ur feelings. So no one can hurt you
MJ: I thought jokes were so supposed to be funny?
(he completely ignore your comment)
P: don't worry I do the same thing
MJ: wow is Moormeier going soft?
(Payton laughs)
P: gimme ur phone
MJ: why?
(he snatches it anyways)
MJ: hey give it back
(you guys get to your house. he purposely drops it on his side so you have to get it. so you lean over to get it and as you get up with your phone you feel a pair of soft lips on ur cheek)
MJ: watch it u little flirt
(you get out of his car)
P: bye MJ... even if thats your name.
(ur faces gets red as a tomato and you walk into your house and see bailey and Mack come to you)
M: ur blushing again
B: Payton drove you home didn't he
MJ: how are you guys so good at that
(they laugh)
MJ: and how does he know that MJ isn't my real name
(only Bailey and Mack know ur real name)
B: does he know what it is?
MJ: no, but he knows it isn't MJ
M: how tf did he find out
MJ: i don't know
(your head is killing you so you go to ur bedroom and lay down. then you get a call from ur mom)

— call with Josh—
Jo: MJ?
MJ: ya tell Payton to comeback, he forgot something at the house
Jo: k ill tell him

(fast forward to when Payton comes back)
( you meet him outside because you did't want the girls to get suspicious)
(you walk up to his car)
P: I know I didn't leave anything at ur house because I didn't even come in
MJ: ik but I need you to do me a favor
P: ok... Im listening
MJ: so my parents are coming into town tomorrow morning but I told them I have a boyfriend and I just said the first name that popped into my head and it was yours so can u just be my fake boyfriend while they are here.
P: sure but on one condition
MJ: wait. actually? what do you want
P: ya who wouldn't want to be the mysterious MJ's boyfriend for a week. and I want to know ur real name. since I'm gonna be your "boyfriend" shouldn't I know ur real name
MJ: ur sneaky
P: Just tell me
MJ: come to my house at 11 tomorrow we are picking my parents up from the airport. I'll tell you then.
——Fast Forward to tomorrow morning——
(you tell the girls ur parents are in town so u are going to pick them up at the airport and you'll be back later. you leave and get into Payton's car.)

MJ: ya ik its sounds like such softie name
P: wait how is ur name MJ since it does;t relate to ur real name at all

(Payton laughs a little)
MJ: its not funny
P: yes it is. ur middle names are two months of the year ahaha. oh and before I forget call me payt or something other than Moormeier since you know-
MJ: ya ya I got it
(you guys get to the airport and wait for your parents. you and Payton get out and wait for them outside of the car, Payton grabs ur hand and interlock fingers and Payton holds you close to him.)
MJ: what are you doing
P: making it seem like we are an actual couple
(tbh it felt really nice and I felt safe when he was close to me.)
(then I saw my parents and gave them hugs)
MJ: mom and dad this is Payton my boyfriend
y/m : nice to me u
y/d: MJ doesn't talk about u much but you seem like a nice boy
—— blah blah blah boring stuff—
(when you get back into the car Payton is driving and u let your dad sit in the front and u were in the back with your mom)
y/m: it looks like he likes him (pointing at your dad talking to Payton)
(your parents were hungry so we decided to go get some food before dropping them off at their hotel.)
(you guys get to the restaurant and park but ur parents go in first while you wait for Payton because he was on the phone)
MJ: so how are you holding up?
P: good actually, ur dad is really nice. but he also refers to u as MJ. why?
MJ: because I've grown up with that name and he likes it more because it makes me sound tuff. But my mom calls me Gracie all the time
(Payton smirks at you)
MJ: what?
