By the time I sent her the last text, Aria had fallen asleep in my lap. I wasn’t even texting for that long, but this girl can sleep at anytime and anywhere.

I took a quick picture of her before scooping her up in my hands and going to upstairs to my room. I placed her down on the bed gently so that she wouldn’t get too scared and went to take a shower.

For some reason, I always take showers at night. I hate the thought of being out all day and then just getting into bed without showering, it just grosses me out. When I stepped into the bathroom, my phone connected to the speaker that was in there. If you haven’t noticed, I can’t do anything without music. I played a random playlist and the first song to come on was
Espresso ~ Sabrina Carpenter.

I spent the next 15 minutes vibing in the shower, before I got another message. It can wait. When I got out, 10 minutes later, it was Olivia that sent me the message. Well, there was more than one, but you know what I mean.

I got comfortable in bed and put on a random show to watch. Aria snuggled into me and I spent some time petting her since I didn’t do it earlier.

After about an hour of just watching the show, my eyes became droopy and I fell asleep, not knowing what was going to happen in the morning.

BEEP BEEP BEEP BE-

“Fucking hell” I groaned out while turning my alarm off. It was 6:15 AM. Too early to be alive right now. I wanted to go back to sleep, but remembered that I wasn’t the one driving today. Love that.

I got out of bed, Aria following behind me as I went down to the kitchen to get some water and start making breakfast for myself. I’m probably just going to make some egg and avocado toast with some fruit on the side since I’m not really that hungry. But before I do that, I filled up Aria’s food bowl and got some fresh water for her and she started devouring her food like she hasn’t eaten in the two months that she has been alive.

I finished with breakfast and washed the dishes. It’s 6:45 now, so I have 45 minutes to get ready before Demitra comes. I go back up to my room to brush my teeth and do my makeup. I’ll just to it very natural and light, I’m not trying to impress anyone. I brushed my hair and just left it as it is right now since I straightened it. All I have to do now is pick what I’m going to wear. I decided on a pair of mom jeans and a black top with and oversized zip up, since it was a little colder that yesterday. I looked at my phone and it was 7:20, right on time. I grabbed a pair of shoes and my back and went downstairs to wait for my ride.

I still don’t understand how this whole thing is going work. I don’t even know why I agreed to do something like this. Before I could think any further, a car horn brought me back to reality. I slipped my shoes on and grabbed my keys. As I was about to kneel down so I could say bye to my dog, I heard another honk. “I’m coming” I yelled like she could hear me from her car. I ruffled my baby’s fur before leaving the house, locking the door behind me.

When I walked over to the white car, Demitra was impatiently waiting for me. “You’re late” she said before I even had the chance to step into the car. “It’s 7:25. What do you mean I’m fucking late” I said annoyed as I closed the car door. “Doesn’t matter and don’t slam my fucking door”. I only looked at her dumbfounded while she started driving.

For the past five minutes, the tension was very thick, thick to the point where you can cut it with a knife. We were sitting in that awkward silence before she, reluctantly decided to break it.

“We have to set some ground rules.” she said in a monotone voice, still only looking at the road in front of her. “No one can know that this is not a real relationship, not even your sibling.” “I don’t have one” “Okay, next, we have to wait for eachother after classes that we don’t have together, we have to sit together if we’re in the same class and we have to sit together at lunch. Oh, and you have to be there when we’re filming YouTube videos” “Oh God. I have one, no kissing.” “How are people going to believe us then.” she snuck a glance at me. “Do it on the cheek, I’m just not gonna kiss you” “We will have to show some pda tho.” “We will, I just don’t want to kiss” “Fine, if it means that much to you we won’t. No fucking around with other people. Got it?” “Yeah” “Lastly, no catching feelings. If you catch feelings for me, it’s over.” “I’m pretty sure you’re going to be the one to catch feelings first.” “Please, I don’t catch feelings.” I don’t believe her one fucking bit. “Mhm, sure you don’t. If you fall in love you have to confess in front of the entire school.” she turned to me fully now since we were on a red light. “Are you fucking crazy?” I just looked at her innocently. She took a deep breath before agreeing to what I said. “The same goes for you by the way.” she spat back before driving off when the light turned green.

“What are we going to say if someone asks how we started dating.” Demitra stayed silent for a few minutes before coming up with a story. “We were at a friend’s party, we were both drunk and ended up bumping into eachother. After that, one thing led to another and we found out that we didn’t actually hate eachother, we just didn’t know how to communicate because our feelings were in the way. But we resolved the issue and now we’re dating.” “Wow, what a great story, ten out of ten, honestly.” “I’m great, I know.” she said, flipping her hair a little.

I didn’t even realize we were sitting in the school parking lot now. Demitra turned and looked at me, directly in my eyes with her chocolate ones. “Is everything clear” “As glass”. She put her hand out for me to shake, which I took so we could seal the deal. “And remember no one can know that this isn’t real. You’ll wait in the car and I’m going to get out and open the door for you because there are people around. We need to sell this.” She got out of the car, a different expression on her face from the one before and opened the door for me. “Now take my hand and look happy, alright?” I rolled my eyes before taking her hand with a more relaxed and nicer expression on my face.

Here goes nothing.
