It was time I got home and I called my mom , she said I must invite Alex for supper while his mom was out of town.

My dad had invited Alex to have supper with us tonight, since his parents were out of town. Alex had taken my hand as we walked towards his car.

"Ash?" He had asked in a soft voice. I looked to him as we stopped at his cari
"Yes?" I answered him. My nerves seemed to set in.

"I want to do something for you tommorow at school. To show everyone that this is serious and I can be in a serious relationship." He had said. Oh Alex, if only it wasn't fake and actually a serious relationship.

"Sure." I had answered in a sad tone. Alex clearly saw that I was upset, he gave me a questioning look. He shrugged it off and we got into his car.

What can I say, I was stupid. If you pretend to have feelings for someone and act like a loving couple, feelings are bound to surface. Why did I do this to myself and agree to that stupid deal with Alex.

******************

We were driving. I could hear Alex tapping on the steering wheel. And then I heard nothing and then a bright line overcome us then I met the darkness.

******************

I woke up in a blank hospital room, a doctor and a nurse walked in with wide smiles on their faces. Clearly glad to see my state. I was given a glass of water and I felt better. My ribs hurt and so did my right leg.

"What happened?" I asked the doctor, she gave me once over my face and checked her papers. She then gave me another smile.

"You and your boyfriend were in a car accident yet you were the most injured between the two of you." The doctor said catching me up on what happened in the last few hours. I looked at myself, I had cuts and bruises on my skin.

"Where is Alex now , I want to see him." I said as I attempted not to scream at the doctor.

"He is outside I will call him in." she said calmly. He was okay. Thank goodness he was okay

The doctor let Alex in and he ran to me looking as if he was about to cry.

"Ash! I'm so glad you are okay."He said as he held my head he had several stitches on his head and a bruised area on his lip were his piercing used to be . Ouch, that must've hurt.

I bit my lip and he smirked which led me to giggle to indicate that I was alright.

He put his forehead against mine , I wanted to kiss him yet I thought it might hurt his bruised lip.

"You look so cute when your worried." I said and he chuckled alittle.

******************

Two weeks later and school was getting hectic . Too many this and too many that. I swear Alex was the only thing keeping me sane.

Alex walked me to my class carrying my books then all eyes were on us. I took my books out of his hands and put it on my desk before turning back to see Alex on one knee with a box that held a promise ring.

"Will you promise to stay by my side?" He had asked me in a deep voice. Gosh this would've been the perfect moment if it wasn't for the fact that all we were was just a act.

"Yes I will." I said, my voice soft and trying not to crack. He stood up, kissed my hand with the ring on and left the classroom. All the students eyes were on me.

I swear he only leaves me in bad situations.

****************

After school I was looking for Alex so we can go home , I came around the corner finding Alex talking to his friend, Aaron.

"You need to end things now." Aaron said, "she is only supposed to be a bet, dude."

"I know. I just need to push through for alittle longer." Alex replied and my jaw dropped.

I stepped back and knock over a can lying on the floor. Alex and Aaron turn back to me.

"Ash, it isn't as it seems, I swear.!" Alex said sounding upset at the fact that he might lose me...

Too late Alexander Green. Too late.

What will happen... will they still be 'dating' or will she deny she still loves him no matter what.
