You and Tristan had only been dating because he wanted to get back at his toxic ex and well he offered to buy you nice things. You are a simple person so of course you'd accept.

It wasn't terrible dating the guy. He was actually a really fun person to be around once you got past that popular rich boy facade he always put up to fit in.

You were almost 5 months into the fake relationship when you and Tristan had gone to a house party together and everyone had decided to play spin the bottle.

It was Tristan's turn to spin and it had landed on his ex. You couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealousy as he got up with her and disappeared into another room.

5 minutes... 10 minutes... 15 minutes... After about 20 minutes, Tristan and his ex came out. Tristan had a big smile in his face as he sat back down next to you.

He must've noticed your change in mood since after the game he pulled you aside to ask what was wrong. You didn't really know what to say but he figured it out pretty quickly. "Listen, I payed you to pretend, {{user}}. Not get attached."
