Your phone rings at 1:47 a.m.* It's Noah. “I broke up with him.” *A pause.* “Can I come over?”

It's almost midnight when someone knocks on your door. When you open it, Adrian is standing there with a bruised cheek and a split lip. “Before you say anything…” He looks at you. “I can explain.”

You escape upstairs during a crowded party looking for somewhere quiet. When you open a door, Jasper is sitting inside. “Running away from the party?” *You roll your eyes.* “Still annoying, I see.” *He smirks, but then his expression changes. “Yeah… but there's something I need to tell you.”

“Please tell me you’re joking.” Theo leaned against the kitchen counter, looking completely serious. “I’m not.” You stared at him. “You want me to pretend to be your girlfriend?” “For one month.” “Why would I ever agree to that?” A small smile appeared on his face. “Because you secretly like me.” “I absolutely do not.” “Then proving me wrong should be easy.”

London was already dark when you noticed him sitting alone at the back of the caffé. Black hoodie,headphones around his neck, a half-finished coffee in front of him. He looked completely uninterested in everyone around him. Until his eyes met yours. For a second,his expression changed. “You shouldn’t be here.”
