A/N: Sorry I took forever with this, I was distracted. ^^ Also, I'd like to thank my friend Celestrian from a video game forum for the awesome drawing I'm using as a avatar for this fic! Thanks again Celest!
I'm not going to lie, eating lunch with a stranger is uncomfortable. Especially with all of these girls watching us. I think they're glaring at my fake girlfriend. Oh well, nothing I can do.
"K-Kai?" Juliet whispered, not making eye contact with me. Not that I care.
"What?" I asked, already losing my patience.
"I-I don't like being watched. It's m-making me uncomfortable."
"Deal with it." I said quietly. "I'm hungry. And—"
"B-but…"Juliet looked like she was about to cry.
"Can you just—" With a groan, I gave in. "Fine. We'll go elsewhere." Standing up, I faked a smile towards the crowd before guiding Juliet out. "Are you happy now?" I asked once we were out of sight. "What am I supposed to do with you? Are you shy or something? You do realize that people are going to stare at us everywhere we go? I know I've dragged you into this mess, but your shyness won't help me. I can't keep finding excuses to leave the scene so that you can calm down or something. You'll have to get over it. I don't have the time or the patience to deal with this little problem of yours. Dammit I'm hungry. Because of you I didn't get to start my lunch." I can't take it anymore. It's been only a few minutes and she's being annoying. Is this what you went through dad?
"K-Kai,"
"What?" I groaned, "What is it? Can you see that I'm trying to come up with a way to deal with your shyness? Even though it's going to be a pain in the ass, I'm stuck with you. And no, breaking up with you isn't a option." I looked around, "Well, not yet anyway."
Without a warning, Juliet grabbed my arm, pulling me along with her. "Where are you taking me?"
"T-to my locker," She told me quietly, "W-when you said that I was eating lunch with you, I've f-forgotten about my bagged lunch." She opened her locker, with me leaning against it since people were watching. "I-I'm giving you my lunch. I-It's nothing special b-but…..I-I…" She trailed off, looking away from me. Was that a blush I saw? "D-didn't mean to ruin your lunch." She looked at me, handing me her lunch. "I'm S-sorry, I should've warned you about my shyness. B-but I just assumed you k-knew…..anyway I have to g-go…."
Without thinking, I stopped her. What did she just say? "What do you mean? Of course I wouldn't have known. We never met before. Have we?" I do have to admit, she looks really familiar now I had a chance to look into her green eyes.
"K-Kai, it's me. Juliet Summers." She took out a pair of glasses and put them on. "I-I don't wear these often anymore now t-that I've gotten contacts, a-and I've gotten my braces off over the summer. Y-yes, we've met before. Y-you went to my old school before moving away. As you c-can see, I've moved too. We never spoke, or anything, b-but we've met in the halls a few times. E-earlier today when you've made me your g-girlfriend all of the sudden, I p-panicked. I d-don't know the history with your parents, but I'll help you. I-I know y-you said I don't have a choice, b-but you didn't give me a chance to respond. D-did the school really just give you that prince nickname? It's only been a few hours into the school year." She giggled into her hand.
"Are you done? And you can thank my dad for the stupid nickname." I said sarcastically. "I don't care if we've met or not, I'm stuck with you. Like I said, you're just my dog. This relationship is just a act to get people off of my back, I really don't care what you do. And don't get any ideas of me actually falling in love with you. Because that's not going to happen." I wrapped a arm around her.
"W-what are you doing?"
"Did you say that you had to get somewhere? What kind of a boyfriend I'd be if I didn't walk my girlfriend to her location? People are watching, you idiot." I reminded her quietly.
With a sigh, she said: "T-to the gym. My schedule said I have t-to take gym even though I hate it…"
"Whatever. I didn't need your life story, just your location."
Why did I agree to this? Why did I offer to walk Juliet to her location? Girls are staring. At me. And I swear one of them was glaring at Juliet. I wanted to leave, but I couldn't. Thanks to my class schedule I have gym too. I groaned. Now I have to deal with people. Especially since they think I have a girlfriend. Thank you mom for planting the idea in my head in the first place.
Luckily for me I'm in a different gym class as Juliet, however that doesn't help me. The school separated the boys from the girls, however we're sharing the gym. The girls are playing volleyball while we're running laps around them. As I was running, girls kept waving at me, it's getting annoying. I tried to ignore them, but it's not working.
Looking over at Juliet, it looked like she's being targeted with the ball they were using. God, what's up with the girls in this school? Looking at Juliet again as I passed her, it looked like she was on the ground. I wasn't paying attention so I didn't see what happened. It looked like she gotten hit with the ball, my thought was correct when I approached the scene, my fake girlfriend in the arms of another boy.
"What happened?" I found myself asking, faking innocence. I have a feeling of what happened. Especially when the girls rushed over once they saw me.
"Oh my god Juliet are you okay? I'm very sorry for 'accidentally' hitting you with the ball." One of the girl's spoke up, trying to act innocent.
"It's o-okay, I'll b-be okay." Juliet responded, looking at the ground. I think she's afraid to look at me. Did I do something to her without realizing it?Wait, why should I care? We're not really in a relationship.
"Juliet was it? The teacher wanted me to take you to the nurse." The boy who was supporting her up suddenly spoke up, looking at me.
"O-okay…"
"Wait….." I stopped them from walking away, grabbing Juliet's arm. "I'll do it. She's my girlfriend, I should be the one who-"
"I don't mind walking with her," The boy cut me off, "Besides. The teacher asked me because I was the closest. Seriously. I can do it." Pulling Juliet close to him, the boy guided her out of the gym. And for some reason, I ran after them. However I kept my distance. I know I shouldn't care about Juliet and what she does, but for some reason, I couldn't help it? It's like my brain's telling me something however I don't know what. God I just met this girl this morning and she's already in my mind.
