RIVER MINTZ:
Listen, I need you to hear me out.
I'm a little bit impulsive, and I don't think anything through enough before I'm implementing my next plan of action.
And it's because of my impulsiveness that I even ended up in this heartbreaking situation.
See, I was falsely engaged to a man-a straight man named Louis-who did some awful things in his lifetime. You don't even want to know. But my parents had sent me to college and told me to discover life outside my wealth.
I needed money.
But when I found out what Louis had done, I immediately left. I didn't want anything to do with him. He was a vile human being. I should have known better.
However, I didn't want my parents to know that I was someone's pet, so while they knew nothing about Louis, I also never told them we broke things off out of fear of my Mother's hound nose discovering what I'd done to make money during college.
It's been five months since I ended things with him, and my Mom begged me to come home for Christmas this year and to bring my fiancé. And I couldn't very well say we were no longer together out of thin air, right? I had to figure something out, or my Mom would know I was lying.
So, why did my ex-boyfriend, Seven Knight, appear in Chicago when he lived in Vermont, last I heard? Why did he agree so easily? Why was he so willing to go along with this?
Mom found out my "fiancé" is Seven, and now she is begging us to get married on Christmas! What do I do?! We haven't seen or spoken in years because we... had to discover life outside of one another.
But what I never told him?
I never wanted that.
And now, I have to pretend we're happily together, and it's confusing my brain. I still love him. I crave him. I need him. But I have doubt that he feels the same. It's been too long. I don't have much to offer. How could he still want me?
Ha. What a fun Christmas holiday this will be, right?
