Here's another idea i had. I thought it would be quite funny. Unless there are quite some demands I won't continue/expand on this.
This story features swearing and sexual themes/mentions.
Hope you enjoy.
She knows she shouldn't joke around sarcastically to her complete, oblivious friend.
She knew it was bad to go along with it.
But why was it so much fun then?
Astrid Hofferson—Basketball player, smart (college) student and quite beautiful.
She held a beer in her hand whilst scrolling through Instagram with her other, on an uneventful Tuesday night. Astrid's roommate, watching her moves with boredom.
"Astrid! I'm boorrrreeeddddddd" Her roommate claims in Astrid's ear.
"Shut it, Ruff" the aforementioned 'Ruff' frowned and turned upside down eyes still planted on her roommates Instagram activity. Astrid's finger hovered over a photo before scrolling again, which landed on another photo.
"Hey look that's my brother's photo." Ruff exclaimed in her ear once again. There was a photo of a bunch of guys outside the engineering department of their college. The caption read 'Shoutout 2 my bro Hud! Congrats man on the sick nerd school spot'.
"He went out with a bunch of his friends, one of them is really hot. I'd bang his jaw-line. What's his name again? Hayden? Henry?.." she continued.
"Which one is it?" Astrid asked, suddenly interested. It's not like she's a slut or she wanted to hook up or anything just that, one guy with beaming green eyes intrigued her.
"Hudson! That's it" Ruff shouted suddenly, pointing to the tall, lanky boy laughing, in the middle of all the guys, with the beaming green eyes that intrigued her. Astrid narrowed her eyes at him leaning in closer, something seeming quite familiar about his appearance.
"Why do you care anyway, he like your boyfriend or something?" Ruff spoke again kicking her legs back and forth, in a carefree manner. Astrid scoffed and smirked sarcastically.
"Hah yeah sure." She replied.
"OMG ASSY! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DIDN'T TELL ME!" Ruff shouted and ran to sit in front of her fellow blonde. Astrid laughed and blushed a little.
"Um, Ruff. I was kidding." She chuckled, embarrassed by the volume of her friends voice.
"OMG YOU'RE BLUSHING, YOU CRAZY BITCH! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME— OF COURSE!YOU WANTED TO KEEP IT A SECRET, THAT'S WHY YOU'RE BLUSHING RIGHT NOW!" Another bout of yelling occurred.
"Because you're yelling Ruff!"
"You have a boyfrien—"
"No I don—"
"You have a boyfriend—"
"Ruff. Sto—"
"YOU HAVE A BOYFRIEND!"
"Yeah, I do. Hudson is my freaking boyfriend! Will you shut the fuck up now?" Astrid decided to just go along with it just so she'd stop yelling. Ruff just giggled happily and ran to her room inside the dorm.
"By the way, we're going to a party at my brothers place Friday night."
"Ughhh"
—
"Come on Ruff move your ass." Astrid called impatiently for her friend.
"Relax. I'm coming. And I know you're rushing me just so you can see your boyfriend." Ruff then comes out of her room and strolls past Astrid by the door. Astrid rolls her eyes and closes the front door of their dorm behind them.
"Astrid this is Scott, everyone calls him Snotlout." Ruff says while 'Snotlout' noticeably glances at Astrid's cleavage. Astrid rolls her eyes and walks away from the two, finding a long seat against the wall with another guy sitting there as well. He was leant forward, elbows rested on his knees, palms over his face. She sat next to him, leaving a gap between them. She glanced sideways at the guy. He had long auburn hair and a lanky stature but his arms were still toned with lithe muscles. He looked up and noticed her finally sitting there. That's when she recognised the intriguing green eyes, but from where?
"Parties annoy you too?" He spoke looking at her fully now. His sharp jaw line and cheek bones prominent to Astrid now. She smiled and shrugged.
"Drunk, college students grinding against each other with extremely loud music, that are just sounds from a machine, isn't my favourite thing."
He grinned in reply and spoke again, eyes beaming with delight.
"Hudson." Oh. OH. SHIT. That's where she knew him. Her 'boyfriend'.
"Astrid" She answered and tried to play off her realisation. He was extremely hot though, Ruff had a point.
"Friend of Tuff?" He asked eyes only focused on her eyes, not trailing down to her chest."
"Yeah, sort of. His sister is my roommate/best friend." She turned to face him fully, pushing her bangs out of her face.
"Me too. Except Tuff, Fishleg's and I share a room."
"That would be fun." She comments sarcastically.
"Tell me about it. You must know how it is coming from being with Ruff."
"Hah, yeah. She is just a bundle of joy, that bitch." He chuckled at her observation and smiled at her with big, beautiful green eyes that seemed to be so fascinated by the bright blue eyes that met them.
"ASTRID!" A drunken drawl called which revealed to be Ruff.
"Speak of the devil" She mumbled to which Hudson gave a small laugh to.
"OMG!" Ruff yelled seeing her supposed boyfriend next to her.
"WOW! THIS IS THE MENTIONED, HUDSON!" She squeaked and shook Hudson's hand vigorously. Hudson exchanged a questionable look with Astrid who started to panic. Oh fuck, oh fuck, holy shit. He's probably going to think I'm some sort of physco!
"It's so nice to meet my best friend's boyfriend! Finally!" She reaches into Hudson for a large embrace.
"Umm, what?"
Astrid immediately interrupts.
"Can I just talk to, um, Hud for a bit?" Astrid says quickly and snatches Hudson off to a quiet area, without receiving an answer from Ruff.
"Boyfriend?" He exclaims loudly, confusion flooding his eyes.
"Yeah I know, I'm sorry! I was just joking around and there was this picture of you and Ruff was like 'is that your boyfriend?' and I was like 'huh yeah' in a sarcastic manner but of course she thought I was serious and she wouldn't shut up so I just went along with it and—" She nervously explained, extremely fast. Hudson grabbed her shoulders softly, his touch electrifying.
"Hey, calm down. It's fine, I was just a little confused. Besides, I don't have a girlfriend so it doesn't matter anyway." She immediately deflates, releasing a breath she didn't realise she was holding. She smiled softly and looked up to him. That's also when she realised how short she was compared to him.
"Thanks. Look, I'm just going to tell her now—"
"I can pretend I am your boyfriend if you want." He said a little anxiously.
She doesn't know why she agreed.
She knew it was stupid to 'pretend' to be someone's girlfriend.
She knew it was bad to go along with it.
Then why did she agree?
