The Unexpected

Chapter 3

"W-what are you doing here?"
"I want to apologize for tripping you, it was uncalled for"
"And?" I raised my eyebrows. I knew he didn't mean it, Sasha probably told him to say it.
"And for the rude attitude"
"Ok and your point is?"
"I'm trying to say sorry, ok?"
"Ok" I was about to leave before he grabbed my arm to stop me.
"May I ask where's your car?"
"In the shop"
"What happened?"
"It's been in and out of it, different things but the main is the engine isn't running right"
"How old?"
"2001 Honda Accord"
"How about this I help you and you can help me?"
"And why the heck would I do that?"
"Because you need a car and maybe some extra cash and I need a new rep"
I chuckled "you've needed that a long time ago"
"Real nice hun but it's either you help me or Sasha will drop me"
"But in reality I don't have to help you, you did this on your own"
He sighed and threw the rest of his cigarette on the ground and stomped on it "your right I did but I can offer you something that can help you out"
"Money? I don't need your filthy money"
He sighed again putting his fingers on the bridge of his nose and said "what can I do to have you help me? it will only be for a year until the press believes me"
"nothing as I said you did this on yourself and why ask me? Couldn't you get another celeb to help you?"
"Darling I would've if I could've but Sasha wants you to do it to prove that I can have someone outside of the industry and outside of the model image"
"What a skinny girl who can wear a size 2?"
"Yeah basically" he gave me an obvious look with his facial expression.
I shook my head in disgust.
"It's the industry that makes girls want to starve themselves just to prove there worth, to make you guys think we're beautiful and gorgeous but then it's you frogs who dump them to find the next beautiful thing, haven't you herd of beautiful inside is more better than an outside?"
I silenced him, he knew I was right, he knew I was referring to him because he jumps from girl to girl just to satisfy himself.
"It's you guys who make us insecure, self conscious, it's you who breaks our hearts, but not me you are not messing with me so Leave Me Alone!"
I got out of his grip and walked off.
"Payson, wait!"
I just kept walking until I got to the stairs outside my apartment.
"What!"
"Your right"
"You don't mean that at all, your just saying it for me to help you"
"You are though, what can I do to have you help me?"
I thought... should I? It could help me. I was going in college for writing, I've written a few things but never put it out knowing I don't have a very big follow on any platform and also I know it cost some sort of money but I just used it for other bills.
And I do need money for my car or even a new one at that.
I sighed and said "fine I will help you, but you pay me and I need more of a publicity for my writings"
"You write?"
"A bit"
"Hun your going to be my fake girlfriend you'll get tones of publicity because of me" he smirked.
"Don't be cocky or I don't do the deal"
He chuckled and said "I think it charming"
"I think it's arrogant"
He laughed a bit and said "so can I have your number for plans?"
"Sure, here" I handed him my phone and he handed me his.
I put my number in and gave it back while he gave me mine back.
"I'll pick you up tomorrow for our first date at 7, I'll send my assistant to give you a dress to wear"
Wow my first, well fake date.
I've never had a boyfriend or a date for that matter so faking it? That's totally out of the norm.
"Alright"
"Then we'll talk more of plans tomorrow on our "date" and fair warning there will be press and they will think your my next hook up so fair warning"
"Good to know"
So people will think I'm just his hook up, awesome this will be fun tomorrow.
"We will go on at least three dates then you will move in with me"
"What!! No I will not"
"You need to, to make us look like we're together"
"There's couples who don't live together"
"Hun were not going to be like all couples, celebrity couples stay together in the same house and since we're a couple and not a one night stand then you have to live with me, don't worry I'll give you a guest room"
"Fine the guest room"
He smirked "unless you wanna be with me in the same room"
"Perv, like I would want that"
He chuckled and said "we'll just in case you change your mind it's there"
I gave him a disgust look. Yeah right like I need that in my life or even want that in my life.
"Anyways I'll pick you up tomorrow, goodnight Payson"
"Wait how did you know I lived here?"
He smirked and said "I have my ways, I have people"
"Rigghht , well bye Damon"
"By Payson"
He turned and walked off towards his car and drove off.
I turned and walked into the apartment building then walked up two flights of stairs to room C7 and unlocked the door and went into my studio apartment.
I set down my purse then went right toward the shower to take off these nasty stained clothes and put them in my laundry pile for tomorrow to wash in the laundry room on the bottom floor.
I went to the bathroom and took a shower thinking what did I just get myself into?
I can't fake date Damon like how in the world did this even happen?
I never knew my life could be this full of events in one day.
After I washed all the grime off of me I got out dried myself off, got some pajamas on and made me some dinner then watched an episode 'Bunheads' then went to bed.
