Fake It For Me

Five.

Alex.


Some people are great with luck. They play the lottery and win the jackpot or everything always goes exactly they way they plan. Not me. I mean, I guess I’m lucky because I’m in a great band and we’re really successful with amazing fans, but the one thing, the one person, that I want the most is the one person I’m unluckiest with. When I'm around her it's like I can't function properly, like someone just ripped all of the wires out of my brain and left me to fend for myself. I’m Alex Gaskarth and I’m so in love with Fallon Danes that it drives me insane. But I messed up and it’s been five years and I still don’t know how to fix it.



“So how can we handle this?” Fallon asks Matt, hugging her legs to her chest and leaning into Jack. He lifts his arm and she snuggles into his side, smiling happily. I look away, realizing that I have no reason to be jealous because there’s nothing going on with them and Fallon isn't mine to be jealous of.

The whole gang has gathered in my living room to discuss my confusing relationship with Fallon. I don’t know what the hell happened last night, but after seeing those pictures I wish I remembered. Fallon and I were together again and after years of wishing for just one more chance, I finally get one and I can’t even remember it.

“Well, you guys have two options. You can either deny everything and say that it was just a rumor.”

“That’s the obvious choice.” Kelsey says and I roll my eyes.

“What’s the other option?” Fallon asks and I’m surprised that she’s not immediately jumping towards the idea of just denying ever being involved with me. Kelsey seems surprised too by the way her face pinches up and she purses her lips in a sour expression.

“Or,” Matt begins, taking a deep breath, “You could go out there and pretend that you're actually going out. I mean, Alex could use the publicity because everyone’s been talking about how he whores around all the time.”

“Absolutely not.” Kelsey says instantly. “Why would they even do that?” I clench my teeth together, trying not to let my anger and frustration show. Of course Kelsey would object to this. She still hasn’t gotten over our relationship even though I told her that I was still in love with Fallon. I thought she'd gotten over it after she and Fallon got so close over the past years, but apparently I was wrong. I know I shouldn't trust her after what happened in highschool, what she did to me, how she totally fucked up my life.

Ignoring Kelsey, I look at Fallon who’s biting her lip, an adorable expression on her face. What's she thinking, I wonder. I hope that she would turn to look at me, but she doesn’t. Instead, she looks at Jack who’s whispering something in her ear and nods.

“Can I talk to Alex alone?” She says, still not looking my way. Everyone hesitate, except for Jack who gets up and forces everyone else out of the room with him.

“Alex what are we going to do?” She asks, her voice small. She finally looks up at me with her perfect blue eyes and I suddenly realize that she has to agree to date me, even if it is just pretending. I can't let this opportunity to pass me by.

I shrug my shoulders and lean back into the sofa, trying to appear casual. “We go with it.”

Her blue eyes widen and then narrow quickly in suspicion. “And why would we do that?”

“Well obviously the idea doesn’t repulse you because you haven’t completely objected to it. We could do it. Just until my bad reputation is over.” She rolls her eyes at that last part and crosses her arms over her chest.

“What’s in it for me?”

I shrug again. “Don’t you want to get Daniel back?” I don’t know why I said that, that guy’s name alone makes my stomach twist with disgust. I never liked him from the moment Fallon brought him over to meet Jack. He always looked slimy and gross, like all he wanted was a chance to get in her pants. I knew Fallon deserved someone better, someone like me.

But I watch as realization flashes through Fallon’s eyes and she chews her lip again and I’m overwhelmed with a longing to kiss her right then.

“Okay.” She says so quietly I think that I might’ve misheard her. She sighs and runs her hands through her blonde hair. “Let’s do it.”

I sit up quickly, trying to compose myself. “You’ll be my girlfriend?”

She smiles slightly and nods. “I’ll be your fake girlfriend, but only for a couple of months.”

I can’t stop the huge grin from spreading across my face. A couple of months. I have a couple of months to prove to Fallon how different everything is. How different I am. I have a chance to win her back. I can do this. I will not screw this up.

“You say only a couple of months, but really by the end of it you won’t be able to resist me.”

She only laughs at this and turns away disappearing into the kitchen. Even though she laughs I know that I’ll make it true and I will win Fallon back.

Notes

so i'm thinking about giving Alex a chapter like every five chapters or so
