A/N In case your lost, this is a story I wrote for my friends; some of the guys might be their crushes, random people, or completely made up characters.
Love you girls. xx
Janessa-
There are two types of crushes. The kind where the guy is a douche bag and he ignores you all the time, and you constantly find yourself wondering why you like that guy in the first place; or the kind where you like the guy, but you can't stand the thought of getting your feelings out there and putting your heart on the line. But, in most cases, your so blinded by the thought of suffering embarrassment, you just can't tell him. So you go years, and years, watching him from a distance. Watching the one thing you can't have.
I'm Janessa, and what started with a small crush on Rigo, soon turned into full out free falling. It's grade 12 now. And I wish that I could have swallowed my pride the day I started to develop those feelings. Because now, five years later I found out that he's felt the same way. I could have saved all those years of wondering, if I only told him.
But that's not the point of my story and I'm not one to mope about the past. Because, not many people are lucky enough to get the guy that they picture in their fairytale ending. And somehow, I did.
Julie-
He's the guy you know you shouldn't want but you do. He's the guy who'll let you fall and not catch you. He's the guy who makes you take risks every day, risks you know the chance of him being there to suffer the consequences with you are slim.
I knew I shouldn't have taken risks with Jessie. He was messed up and needed help that I couldn't give him. But I, Julie, the girl that tried to guard her heart , found my self slipping on a thin sheet of ice. Even after he promised he'd try, I couldn't help but feel doubtful. Yet here I am, only hoping that he'll be here to catch me. Because this time, I don't think this mistake is going to be easy to erase.

"Marry me."
I nearly spill my latte on the nicest dress I own.
"Are you out of your mind?! We just met... plus I don't even like your face!"
"It doesn't have to be real."
I set my latte down and look at him.
"No woman wants a fake marriage Mr. Mardell. Be less of a dumbass and find yourself a nice girl who'll kiss your ass even when you're ghosts."
"Look, don't flatter yourself" he goes leaning back in his seat. "You just happen to fit the description I gave the press and my family. And I don't like your face either."
I copy his move and lean back against my seat.
"I'd rather slam my tongue in a car door, sir."
The words hit him.
"Good day... and good luck finding a brainless girl to marry you."
I grab my purse and head towards the door.
"$20,000 a week" he blurts out.
I halt and whirl around.
"What?"
"I'll give you $20,000 every week for a month..."
He walks out from behind his desk.
"... if you agree to do this with me."
$20,000 every week for an 'I do'? Which happens to be fake too?
$80,000 in a month to play dress up for one of the youngest and richest CEO's in the world?
"So what do you say?"
His silky voice swims through my thoughts.
"You wanna get hitched for some money? You know your family needs it."
He just had to play the poor family card.
"So do we have a deal? Or I should go on and keep making you lose your jobs before you even start?"
He had a smirk on his face.
God, I hate him! But that money could help us a whole lot.
I glare at him and extend a hand towards him.
"Deal."
