"Would you please have mercy on me? I'm a puppet on your string...." ••• I had to be smart and really think about it, "We break up after eight months, nothing longer. Everything is for show and when we're not in public nothing happens. You have your life and I'll have mine." He nodded, "There's a couple of things I have as well. You'll be living with me, don't worry we'll have separate rooms. When in public don't talk unless spoken to. You don't try anything funny in public, I'm allowed to bring any girl I want home. And you are not to develop feelings for me." He smirked at the last part. I rolled my eyes at how full of himself he is, "Don't worry I'll restrain myself." He chuckled, "Great so do we have a deal?" He asked extending his hand out to me. ••• Started 8.20.16 || Finished 4.24.17
