Chapter 5

Scarlet Winters

Axel is escorting me back to my dorm, I guess he has already started playing the perfect boyfriend he even wanted to hold my hand, but I didn't allow him to do that.

This is fake, even though we have to make it look real, I still can't allow him to be constantly touching me.

I am afraid... I am afraid I might start believing everything is real, but if I still keep my distance I will keep reminding myself non of this is real.

Axel is a a jerk,I still hate him, and don't trust him, the first day I met him and ruined his precious jersey he was looking at me like he wanted to rip of head from my neck, then he suddenly appeared at the tutoring session and the professor assigned me as his tutor.

Then he starts flirting, joking around and annoying me... Then he appears and save me from my ex and his girlfriend... Then he offers to fake date me to help me piss off Riley.

Everything just feels like the perfect revenge plot of a N*****x movie.

"We are here" he announced.

I looked up realizing we are already at the campus gate, I turned him "thanks."

Just when I was about to leave he grabbed my wrist dragging me back "don't tell me all your past boyfriends never escorted you back to your dorm."

I glared at him confused "what do you mean by that?"

He smirked crossing his arms "their never escorted you right?" he questioned ignoring my question.

"No.. Riley was my only boyfriend and he never escorted me anywhere." I stated, I wouldn't have replied him, but I wanted to know where the questions were heading to, and why he was asking.

"What? That dude was your first love then?"

I nodded feeling a bit embarrassed.

Axel busted out laughing, even throwing his head back, my pulse twichted angrily I kicked his leg with my foot as hard as I could.

He growled out of pain looking at me with wide eyes.

"You deserve that you jerk."

I started walking towards the campus gates but he grabbed my wrist again dragging me back.

"Hey i didnt thought that will make you angry... Cheer up."

I sighed "let me go" I ordered, today has been a long day all I want is to just lay down and have a good sleep.

"I will but first you have to say goodbye to your boyfriend" he grinned.

I raised a brow "goodbye then"

"That's not how it's done" he stated looking at me like I have grown two heads.

He smirked."You are suppose to kiss me sweetheart.... That's how it's done."

"You have completely lost your mind" I shouted pulling my hand out of his hold, he chuckled "I know you have never been in a real relationship... but that's how it's done. Trust me I have dated a lot of girls" he said proudly.

"And you are proud of that?" I said disgusted.

He shrugged like that was the most casual thing on earth "shouldn't I be?"

It hasn't even been two hours since we started fake dating but I am already regretting it, keeping this guy close to me is enough to end my life.

"Let's go for a date tomorrow, that way I would get to know more about you and even teach you some stuffs on dating"

I didn't even look at him "we are in a fake relationship you don't need to know anything about me" with that I speed off to the campus gate.

I got angry the moment he said that.. Why does he want to know more about me? He is probably like all of them, they will get close to me just to hurt me.

I reached my room, slamming the door shut behind me, I almost shouted when I turned on the light.

Lisa was seated on the ground in the middle of the room looking up at me with wide eyes "what's wrong with you" I questioned placing my bag on my bed.

"You and Axel Wolfe are dating."

I looked at her surprise how she found out about it "how did you find out?"

She suddenly stood up and walked up to me, and that was when I noticed she was holding a knife, I swallowed hard crawling back on my bed.

"Not only me the entire school know.... some anonymous dude posted it on the school official group." She muttered rolling her eyes.

I nodded in understanding, just wanting her to drop off the knife she was holding "so how did you guys end up together? Thought you said you hated him?"

"I will explain everything to you Lisa, just drop that knife okay?" I pleaded.

She glared at me taking more steps towards "lisa please... Please don't...STOP" I shouted closing my eyes waiting to feel the pain.

Instead of stabbing me she collapsed near me "how dare you date my crush" she cried out kicking her legs in the air.

I released a breath I didn't even realize I was holding... I sat up looking at her as she dramatically rolled on the bed, I kicked her with my hand "you scared the shit out of me.. I thought you were really gonna stab me"

"I considered that you know" she stated sitting up "but I wanted to know your reason first? And how you guys ended up together"

I explained everything to lisa, I wished my phone was close so I could have recorded how her expression kept changing.

"So you guys are fake dating to piss off Riley?" She questioned.

I slowly nodded happy she finally understood the situation.

"Do i look like I am dumb enough to buy that?."

"That's the truth liz" I shouted standing up "I know it might sound a little unbelievable but that just the truth."

"Okay let's say I believe you, but you said he offered to fake date you?"

"Yes."

She pointed the knife at me as she pushed herself off bed "I believe everything but not that... Even if you are saying the truth I would never believe it" she cried pouting.

"You have lost your mind" I spat out.

"You won't understand... You have never truly been in love scar" she stated pretending to be sobbing , she threw the knife to the other side of the room.

"Goodnight you betrayer of a friend" she hissed collapsing on her bed.

"You are drunk." I stated just realizing it.

I was about to kick her when my phone buzzed, I quickly picked up checking the message.
