Chapter Three

   Michelle's pov

Xavier Scott??

I gasped as I saw him walk towards me like a king. I blinked my eyes rapidly at him, moved back a little when he passed me, going to one of the couches and sat down.

  He pressed his lips together, facing me with a smirk on his pink lips.

Am I really standing in front of Xavier Scott? Like, I'm going to be his fake girlfriend?

The same Xavier I had wished to meet.

   "Uhm, good morning sir." I bit my inner cheeks out of nervousness.

I wanted to scream, 'Oh my goodness! Is this really you? I'm your number one fan. Hug me please. Sign here, on my arm' I wanted to shout that out but I with strained myself from doing that.

My job might end right there.

I can't imagine how I'm gonna face the crowd when he announced me as his girlfriend. Or was it............

Michelle, not now. Just do what you came here for.

    "You're Michelle, right? The girl who ruined my appointment yesterday." He scoffed and pushed his blue hair back making him sexy.

Did he say I ruined his appointment?

Then I remembered when the driver was ranting yesterday about that. He was the one in the car.

No wonder, his voice sounds familiar. He never wanted to come out to avoid his fans squealing around him.

      "Are you deaf?" He jolted me out of thoughts.

"Sir, I never knew you were in that car. I would have hailed you and forget about the mud on my dress" I answered innocently.

Truly, if I knew he was the one in that car, I would have forgot about the dress.

   He huffed, obviously in disgust. He stood up and took two steps toward me.

  "You will pay for what you did. For ruining my appointment. Not only that, don't think I'm the sweet guy you all saw on TV. All that was pretense. Get ready tomorrow, you're going to meet my father. Act like we are truly in love. That's the deal. And don't do anything stupid cause you'd regret it." He concluded, the he moved till we were an inch apart from each other.

I held my breath and he whispered into my ear, "It would be nice meeting you, Miss Michelle." He did a lopsided smile, sniffed my hair, took his car keys and walked out of the house.

  I staggered like I was pushed. My crush didn't just say all that to me. He's not the sweet guy you see on TV? Now, I'm seeing his true colour now.

Gosh! Definitely, I won't wait for two months to end if I'm really gonna survive in his hands.

I never expect him to be cold like this.

   I shrugged my thoughts away, found myself going upstairs, dragging my luggage.

  There are so many rooms here and I opened them one by one. Each spacious. I finally chose one and put my clothes in the wardrobe.

I brought out my phone and texted mom I had arrived at Xavier's house. She quickly called me and I picked it.

"You mean Xavier Scott? That actor?" I could tell she's shocked.

"Yes mom, I'm going to meet his father tomorrow. We are just gonna pretend we are in love." I explained.

    "Okay then, just take care." She replied and we did our goodbyes.

   I can't tell her how cold he is to me. That's not necessary.

     I went back downstairs, then proceed to turn on the TV to watch movie. He appeared there in the movie, kissing a girl.

Call me crazy, but I'd imagined how his lips would feel mine. Soft? Juicy? I mentally slapped myself.

    Two hours later,

Someone came knocking, I opened the door to see someone smiling at me. I let him in.

  "How did you get in?" I frowned.

"Hi, you must be Xavier's maid." He grinned, staring at me lustfully, ignoring my question.

    "No, I'm not his maid." I paused.

"I'm....his girlfriend." I added.

    His eyes dilated in surprise and furrowed his brows. "You're his what? Girlfriend?" He laughed like there's something wrong with what I said. Or maybe.

   "Xavier can never have a girlfriend. He did promised never to have a girlfriend again. But I'm surprised he broke his promise." He laughed again.

    "Why did he say that? He has one before me?" I asked.

"Yes. But something happened. No one can be like his former girlfriend. You wanna know his dark secret?" He revealed his set of teeth.

   I really want to know what happened to his ex-girlfriend. He never told any of his fans that he once had a girlfriend. I guess they secret-dated.

   "What happ........." I stopped when I heard a car horn outside. I hurriedly stood up and saw Xavier's car coming in.

The driver came out to open the door for him but he beat him to it. I heaved a sigh and waited for him.

He opened the door and stared at the man on seat.

"Mike, you're back and you didn't tell me?" He growled.

"Calm down friend. I had to make it a surprise for you."

They are friends. I think.

   "So, you never told me you have another girlfriend. I'm sure you're getting over Lenora." Mike patted Xavier's back.

Xavier's eyes darkened at the mention of that name. I could see a glint of pain in his eyes.

What the hell happened to his ex-girlfriend?

  "Michelle, get inside now!" He said in a low tone. All i did was obey.

Something is really wrong.
