"I need you to be my fake girlfriend". He paused allowing me to process what he just said. I rubbed my eyes trying to see if I was in a dream. Nope real. "If I can make Hazel jealous, then she can get back with me." I swear he was dropped. Like down a flight of stairs. And I'm going to be the one who kicks this asshole down the stairs. Or maybe out the window. "W-what. That makes no type of sense." I stuttered out. I pushed myself off the bed and turned my body to face Hayden. "Yes. She's jealous of you. So if she sees I went to you, then she'll want to get back with me." He looked at me. "Please. Let's pretend that we're dating. Let's pretend that we like each in that kinda of way." I looked down at my feet. I wouldn't have to pretend. Astraea Grey has been bestfriends with Hayden Anderson since birth. Astraea even though she knew it was wrong, likes her bestfriend. Well, like will be an understatment. She was head over heels in love with her bestfriend. But he felt nothing more than a sister-friendship with her. So Astraea kept her mouth zipped and watched from the side lines as he used one girl after another. It wasnt till Hazel came along did he stop his 'player' days and actually fell in love with the red headed girl. Things are perfect in his world, until everything crashes down and the love of his life leaves him. Only wanting Hazel, he turns to his bestfriend Astraea to help him win back the girl he was so dearly in love with. It's an easy and simple task- Fake Date. Will Astraea be able to go along with pretending about something that's been true for her so long and prevent herself from falling farther into a hole she's been stuck in for awhile. Or will this little arrangement make Hayden come to his senses and see who Astraea really is to him-not just a bestfriend or even a sister, but something more.
