You're sat on the sports field, grass under the blazer spread beneath you. Your friend Lina sits across, hunched over her phone to block it from the sun.

"How come you're so single?"

You hum, wordlessly asking what prompted that question. She turns her screen towards you for a second, and she's on Snapchat, going through stories posted by supposedly the hottest guys in school.

"Oh." You shrug. "Cause dating's stupid…" Is your response, to which Lina gives you a look. You sigh. "I mean it's not exactly that; there's nobody I'd wanna go after."

"There sure as hell is." She shows you the snap of Jake from class. But you both know that's not what you meant. You're just too under confident and pathetic when it comes to it.

"Well yeah but not that I'd go for someone like that of my own accord." You excuse.

Lina goes back to her phone for a few minutes so you think the little convo about your love life is over. But that's when she smirks and squints at you in the sunlight, covering her eyes.

"And if it's not your own accord? I'm gonna dare you to get a really hot guy to fall for you. Is that motivation?"

Your lip curls down. In class, you aren't known as a casual flirt. You're known as bubbly and a bit shy, but extraverted around the right crowd. You're playful and smiley but not in the 'hot' type of way. In the innocent type of way that makes guys think you're cute but also a prude.

"go on..."

Lina taps on her phone and turns it to you, and you lean in to see a picture of Nishimura Riki. He's a popular asshole in your grade infamous for the havoc he causes in school with his popular friends.

"I wanna do a bet."

"Oh god."

"Get Riki to ask you to be his girlfriend and then have him stay with you for at least a month - longer than he's stuck around for anyone - and I'll pay $100. If not, you pay me." She then adds to sound thoughtful: "this is for you. To get out there."
