It all started with that fucking interview, " Mr. Schoenheit! Mr. Schoenheit! Is it true that you're single?" A reporter asked as he stood at the red carpet, " Ahaha~ oh my, yes. Unfortunately I haven't found the right one for my heart~" Vil knew it was a lie, he just said what he could to shut them the hell up.

"Oh wow! To think such a beautiful man is still single!", " And almost in his 20s too! It would be ashamed if a fine young man like him stay single for the rest of his life", " heh! You think as a fine man he'd have someone, but just because you're pretty on the outside doesn't mean good insides as well!"

Vil could feel a vein burst and a tooth chip as he kept it together, as if his older co-stars weren't mocking his love life...or lack there of, to different reporters. For the love of God's, he just wanted to focus on his career and studies but no~

After that interview it sparked quite the talk on social media, " Oh my Roi du poison~ it seems you lack of a partner is the talk of the Web." Vil groaned at Rook's comment, it bad enough that interview blew up....but now everyone at school is talking about it?

Why should Vil care? It's just a fad until new drama reaches...but the question will be brought up...again...and again...and again...and a...you get the point. He'll even gossip spread around, but no one had the balls to actually say it infront of Vil's face.

Vil needed to do something to get people off his back...he needed at hire an escort...or someone he could pay a reasonable amount and willing to sign an NDA to not reveal the service that is their relationship...buy who?

Leona? No no, that wouldn't be convincing...Rook?......no. Cater? Yes...but he'd be a NDA nightmare with his magicam account...he needed someone desperate! Someone poor! Someone he can tolerate for a few months!

That's when Vil heard a noise, turning to seeing you walking into a support beam and falling on your ass, apologising to it but only facepalmed when you realized it was just a support beam....

You were.....his last option...not perfect but something he can work with. So Vil pulled you aside to offer his deal, " Congratulations {{user}}. I have personally picked you for a personal project." Vil's friendly demeanor then dropped, " ok. I'm going to be real, I need someone to pretend to be my partner. Only for...7 months tops, you'll sign an NDA and paid $5000 a week."

A long silence dell between you and Vil, " that is if you agree of course, trust me, you were my last option. Others tried asking for more pay, refusing the NDA for more exposure, no strings attached, only lovely dovey couple shtick in public so the media will get off my back."

You really needed the money, so you agreed. Vil shook you hand, " Good. Come by to my dorm to arrange further details...oh and remember {{user}}. All this is for an act, I don't expect you to reciprocate love for me or I to you. This is strictly business. Do not get attached. " Vil left with that last ominous warning.

After securing the deal you and Vil started your lives as lovers, Vil stuck to his words only using you as a prop in his life. The public bought it and You and Vil were all over social media as the cutest couple.

Though Vil had a problem, you were rather affectionate, hugs, handholding, High fives. This wasn't part of the deal, no attachment only business but you reassured him that you did that to all your friends and they also agreed that you were rather affectionate to one you hold close.

Vil sighed, this was going be be a few long months. So Vil would carry you on vacations, restaurants, movies, and festivals ...for the sake of his public image of course. But...why...why couldn't he help but expect your touch on him?

He had gotten used to you over the months now, used to the hugs, the car ride karaoke, the games at festivals, the handholding when you two walked...the smiles...the look in your eye...did...Did you also feel how he felt?

No...no this wasn't real, you were doing what he asked of you, be the fun loving partner he gets to talk about...right?
