This is my head-canon. I blamed Chord and Amber and those new pictures that they had posted because they really messing up my shipper's mind.

Do not own Glee or these characters.

Amber rolled her eyes at Chord's pouty face. She knew that he was right but she wouldn't admit it out loud. They had been doing this for years and she wouldn't want to change the way it was. Chord kept on pushing her to just come clean but she wasn't ready yet. She was afraid of the reactions that they might get. Besides, most of Chord's stans were crazy and impulsive. She didn't want to face all the hatred again.

"No" she said curtly. Chord let out a heavy sigh. His agent had called about another PR stunt with a young actress. He didn't want to do it but Amber had been pushing him to do it because she thought that the fans must be wondering about Chord's love's life. Besides, it was weird if one of Hollywood's most eligible bachelors stayed single for too long.

"She's so young!" Chord argued. Amber looked at him liked he had grown another head.

"She's twenty! Only five years apart. Please, Chordy. Just go out with her and let the paps caught you guys. Then, you can stop doing it. Please"

Chord took a deep breath and let it out. "Fine" He agreed in defeat.

"One date and that's it" Chord said with finality. Amber nodded and kissed his nose and pouty mouth.

As promised, Chord went out with went to dinner and movie. It was nice but he couldn't help but wished that it was Amber who was with him. After dinner, he sent Halston back and he didn't even contacted her after their so called date. He thought Amber would be happy once the pictures came out.

"What's wrong? They did get our pictures, right?" he asked.

"Yeah, but what's with the distance between you guys? That's didn't scream your dating!"

"Well, we're going for the 'we're not dating' angle. Look, ms. Pretty. The mass believe that there's something between Halston and I. That's all matter. Now, it is time for you to keep your promise. No more PR dating and once the right time comes,we're coming clean and tell the world that we've been dating this whole time" Chord stated. "I want to kiss and hug you openly. I want to take you to a fancy date and treat you like a queen - because Amber, you're the queen of my heart and I want people to know that you are mine" he continued, cupping her face in his hands. His thumbs caressed her cheek slowly before he leaned to kiss her. Amber could feel tears threatened to fall down her eyes. She reached for his hands that were still holding her face.

"I would love that too" she whispered.

Chord watched Amber who was talking and laughing about something with Chris and Naya. He smiled at Harry who came and sat next to him.

"Saw the pictures of you and Halston Sage" Harry said without beating around the bush.

Chord looked at him and let out a sigh.

"Before you say anything. You should know that it was Amber's idea and she forced me to do it"

Harry chuckled. He knew about Chord and Amber's relationship. Besides, he was the one who they would go to if they want to go out together - making it looked like were hanging out together. Truth was he was tired of being a third wheel and he knew that Chord felt the same too.

"How long are you going to pretend?"

Chord raked his hair with his fingers and shrugged his shoulders.

"I told Amber that was the last but -,"

Harry chuckled. "But you willing to wait no matter how long it takes" he said. Chord nodded. He knew the reason behind Amber's action and he understood. He had been at the end of the hates and he knew the feelings and hurts that all those hates brought upon. He had witnessed how those hates had hurt her and he vows to not letting her went through that again. Chord looked at Amber and then turned his gaze toward Harry who was sipping his coffee. He jumped out of his seat and went to get Amber - pulling her away.

"Let's go get some coffees!" he said as he pulled Harry out of his chair.

"I'm drinking it!" Harry retorted. Chord and Amber looked at him - eyebrows rising. They've been together for so long that their patented bitch faces are similar, Harry thought. Sighing, he defeatedly followed them.

Chord looked at the picture that Amber had posted on her Twitter and smiled. He looked at her.

"Ma boys?" he asked, smirking.

"Hey, it is a start" she replied, smiling at her. Chord leaned down a bit and whispered at her.

"I so wanna kiss you right now"

Harry rolled his eyes.

"Let's just get our coffees and go. You can do whatever you want once you're in your trailer" he muttered under his breath. He was so tired of the shitty third wheel's feeling.
