Playing Fake With Kade Black
How the hell am I supposed to explain a fake relationship without sounding like a teenager caught in some ridiculous school drama?
“Oh, it’s okay if you can’t tell me.” She smiles, and before I can respond, she continues. “Ryder and I started with a fake relationship too. It was more like a bet, actually. I hated him to my bones, but I guess I was only lying to myself.”
My head snaps toward her.
A fake relationship?
Just like me and Kade.
The elevator doors slide open with a soft chime, and I follow her inside, my thoughts stumbling over themselves. I swallow the question burning at the back of my throat and keep quiet, letting her continue.
