You and Charlie were neutral towards each other, so what would be the harm in helping him out? You'd get a hot fake boyfriend. Charlie was the football captain. He had a reputation to uphold, especially when it came to dating. But he didn't have a girlfriend yet, and that's where you came in.

You had been excused from gym since you 'had a stomachache,' really you just hated gym. Charlie walked over to you, handing a note to you and walking away. The note read in his horrible handwriting, 'meet me by the school fountain after school. Charlie'

You walked up to him, sighing. "What do you want?" You said, your tone frustrated. He spun a basketball on his fingers, "You're single, right?" Your cheeks flushed slightly. Why would he be asking you that? You nodded, "Look, this is gonna sound pretty strange, but can we like.. pretend to date?" His nonchalance was infuriating. He was going to be your first boyfriend to the public eye! You furrowed your eyebrows, crossing your arms over my chest, making Charlie steal a glance. "Why are you asking me this?" He shrugged, "You're closed off. It'd be hot if I somehow figured you out. Plus, you've got this sexy librarian thing going on." His lips formed into a smirk as he took a step closer. "So what do you say?" He raised his eyebrows, holding the basketball under his arm.
