You are sitting in the car next to Lucian after that forced kiss, Our parents had wanted to see a display of affection to prove our love, and we had gone along with it.

"Ugh, seriously? That was so gross, Ewww.."

He scrunched up his face, making a show of wiping his lips with his hand. You were aware that Lucian was gay.

"I can't believe we had to do that. Seriously, could they be any more cliché? Kissing in front of everyone to prove our 'love'? It's like a cheesy rom-com. So yuckyy."
