After lunch, Autumn and the gang went to the gym for PE, it's the only class they have with each other complete. Sky and Autumn went to the girls locker room to change, some of the students already left to the gym. Autumn quickly tied her hair into a messy bun before shoving her bag into her locker.

❝Do you have another hair tie I can borrow, Autumn?❞ Sky asked her while she was brushing her hair. Autumn grabbed a hair tie from her bag's pocket and handed it to her.

❝Thanks. We should head out now, don't want Mr. Arnold making us doing push ups for being late.❞ Sky panicked while tying her hair as she rushed out of the locker room with Autumn. The twins are already wearing their gym clothes by the stand waiting for the two. Autumn noticed Gene and his gang was also their making her scoff.

❝Alright, Five laps everyone before we play❞ Mr. Arnold shouted at them and blew his whistle, the students groaned but obeyed anyway. The students formed ran in a circle around the gym. After five laps, Sky and Michael collapsed on the floor panting heavily. Autumn sat down by the bleachers panting as she grabbed her towel and dabbed off the sweat around her face.

❝Wa...ter....❞ Sky reached out to her water bottle and greatfully chugging on it. Milo grabbed two bottles and handed it to Autumn, she smiled at him and took it muttering a 'thank you'. Milo smiled back at her before handing the other water bottle to his twin who is still laying down on the floor catching his breath.

❝Okay, enough drama now. Gather around me.❞ Mr. Arnold once again blew his whistle making the students rush to him and form a circle with him in the middle.

❝Today we'll be playing two sports. Volleyball and Soccer, Soccer will be outside at the field, obviously. While Volleyball will be here. Just form your own players. Now, go!❞ Mr. Arnold and clapped his hands making the students run to their preferred sport. Sky squeeled in joy and quickly pulled Milo out of the gym to the field. Those who stayed behind that didn't want to play stayed by the bleachers. Autumn then started to form her own group with a mix of girls and boys.

❝Michael, go be our referee❞ Autumn said to him, Michael smirked at her and nodded before blowing her a kiss and stood outside the line. Autumn turned to their opposing team, she scoffed when she saw Gene at the enemy team.

Of course he would be join..

She said to herself and puffed out her cheeks irritated making him snicker at her. Michael blew his whistle signalling them to start. Autumn grabbed the ball and stood behind the line and waited for the whistle. The enemy team readied their position when Michael blew his whistle. Autumn smirked and quickly spiked the ball to the other side. The student squeeled in shock as she quickly dodged the ball.

❝What the fuck are you doing?! This isn't dodge ball!❞ Gene shouted at the girl making her cower in fear and and aplogize quickly. Autumn smirked as her team gave her a high five. Michael grabbed the ball and threw it to Autumn before blowing his whistle. Autumn snickered at Gene who was furious. She dribbled the ball before raising her hand up and throwing the ball up and spiking it to the enemy side. The ball flew to the girl who dodged it earlier so Gene quickly ran infront her and recieved it passing it to the other side. A boy from Autumn's team ran over to the net and smacked it back to them, Gene quickly also jumped to the net and spiked it back to them again.

Autumn grunted and dived to recieve it, a girl from her team quickly toss passed it to the other side, a male from the enemy team ran to recieve it but ended up bumping into Gene who is positioning his self to recieve it, the two fell back from the impact.

❝What the fuck Richard?!❞【LMAOOOO I CAN'T】 Gene growled at him as he stood up and walked over to him his fist clenched. His team quickly ran over to him holding him back from going any further to Richard. Michael rubbed his temples before blowing his whistle and told them to take a break. Gene violently shook their hands off of him and walked out, Zenix and Sasha followed behind him with their stuff and Gene's stuff. Autumn just snickered at them while she wiped off her sweat from her face.

❝Well that went well❞ Michael giggled as he grabbed his water bottle and took a sip. Autumn just laughed also reaching for her water bottle.

❝I'm glad he left, he's been giving me looks ever since the game started.❞ Autumn rolled her eyes. Soon, they heard the school bell rang meaning it's already dismissal. She grabbed her stuff from her locker and left with Michael heading to the field. They spotted Milo and Sky by the bleachers drinking water.

❝Let's go losers!❞ Michael called out to them, Sky and Milo grabbed their stuff and ran over to them. Sky engulfed the two with a big hug before they walked out of the field.

❝Man, that was so fun! Right Milo?❞ Sky giggled as she jumped around happily. Milo hummed in response.

❝How was volleyball?❞ Milo asked Autumn.

❝It was fun. Gene was so pissed off because of his team messing up.❞ Autumn snickered as she flipped her hair majestically. The group then started talking about their respective sports when they suddenly heard a honk when left the building. Autumn turned around and saw her father waiting in the car.

❝D-Dad? What are you doing here?❞ Autumn stared at him her eyes widening in shock.

❝Isn't it obvious? I want to pick my little princess up from school❞ His father grinned at her, Autumn blushed from embarrassment when Milo snickered silently.

❝I'll see you guys tomorrow! Bye!❞ Autumn quickly ran to her father's car and told him to leave already, she was so embrassed already but his father just chuckled at her but drove off anyway.

❝You could've texted me dad!❞ Autumn groaned at him as she covered her face flushed in red.

❝But I want to surprise you of course! It wouldn't be a surprise if I texted you that I was coming over.❞ His father said and pinched her cheeks, Autumn quickly swatted his hand off of her cheeks making his father chuckle. Finally, they arrived home and Autumn dashed out of the car walking inside their house.

❝Welcome back, sweetheart!❞ Her mother greeted her with a kiss on the cheek and a hug, Autumn stood their in shock. Usually, Autumn would be the first one to greet her so she find it weird when her mother greeted her first.

❝We have a special guest coming over for dinner, now go to your room and wear something nice hmm?❞ Her mother smiled atvher before walking back to the kitchen to continue cooking.

❝Okay...?❞ She trailed off before she walked up the stairs and head to her room. she placed her bag on the side of the bed before walking walking over to her closet. She grabbed a red slip on dress and hanged it on the handle of her closet and grabbed a black velvet heels

●▬▬▬▬▬๑⇩⇩๑▬▬▬▬▬●

●▬▬▬▬▬๑⇧⇧๑▬▬▬▬▬●

She walked over to her vanity table and started fixing her hair and face, she put on a light makeup and brushed her long hair straight before changing into her dress and slipping on her heels. The dress hugged every part of her body perfectly showing off her hourglass figure. She stood infront of her full body mirror and took a mirror selfie and posted it on her Instagram.

❝Autumn! Can you help me out with the food?❞ She heard her mother called out down stairs. She looked at herself one last time before heading down stairs to help. While she was setting up plates she heard the doorbell ring.

❝Can you please get that honey?❞ His father asked her while he placed down a plate of roast chicken on the table. Autumn nodded and walked over to the door, she slowly opened it and gasped.

❝Surprise!❞ Her grandfather and grandmother engulfed him with a hug quickly. Autumn squeeled in joy and hugged them back.

❝Oh my Irene, I missed you guys!❞ She said happily, Her grandparents laughed and let her go, she quickly lead them inside and greeted her parents with a hug also. They all soon sat at the dining table eating.

❝Oh! I forgot to give this to you.❞ Her grandfather handed Autumn a fancy red velvet box, her eyes widened as she took it and slowly opened it revealing a beautiful diamond necklace and earrings.

❝T-Thank you grandpa!❞ She grinned at him and gave him a big hug.

❝Anything for my granddaughter.❞ Her grandfather chuckled before clearing his throat his face turned into a serious one when her father raised him an eyebrow.

❝So.. Autumn. We have something to tell you❞ Her grandfather started, Autumn looked up from her necklace and close it gently placing it on the table.

❝What is it?❞ She raised an eyebrow, her grandfather looked at her father and sighed.

❝You see... You know that I'm the leader of a Mafia group, right?❞

❝Yeah..? What about it?❞ She suddenly felt a bit nervous.

❝I'm having trouble with our rival Mafia group, we wanted to make peace with them but..❞ Her grandfather trailed off and looked at her father.

❝Autumn. They want you to marry their leader's son.❞

Autumn's eyes widened, cold sweat started to fall down from the side of her face as she shook in surprise.

❝W-What? B-But I don't- I'm not ready for that!❞ She exclaimed as she slammed her hands on the table in panic.

❝We know that, but we want to have peace with them, so I... Agreed❞ His grandfather sighed in guilt. Tears started to form in her eyes as she rubbed her fingers nervously.

❝I already have a boyfriend!❞ She exclaimed making her gasp in disbelief because of what she said. Her family looked at her in shock.

❝You do? Who is it then? Why didn't you tell us?❞ Her father growled at her making her cower.

❝Who is it?❞ Her mother asked her calmly.

Shit..

She thought, suddenly her phone vibrated from her lap, she took a peak and saw a text message from Gene.

❝Gene.❞ She suddenly blurted out, her eyes widened when she bluntly said his name. Her grandmother raised an eyebrow at her.

❝Really? Do you think we can meet this "Gene" boy?❞ Her grandmother asked. Her grandfather looked at her having doubts on what she said.

Well I'm fucked.

She mentally slapped herself for saying his name as she sighed and decided to go along with it.

❝Not yet... I'll let you guys know.❞ She crossed her fingers under the table hoping they would buy her lie. Her grandfather stayed silent for a bit thinking before nodding.

❝Okay then. Me and my wife will be staying at the hotel in the city. I'll be arranging dinner their next week so we can meet this boyfriend of yours.❞ Her grandfather said and he wiped his mouth with a napkin. Autumn sighed in relief but groaned again when she remembered she needs to talk to him about this.

❝If we find out that your relationship with him is fake, I'll have to force you to marry the leader's son.❞ Her grandfather strictly said to her making her gulp in uneasyness as she quickly nodded.

❝I-I'm full already.❞ She said as she nervously stood up grabbing her plate and heading to the kitchen to place it in the sink and sprinted to her room. She slammed her door shut and locked it as her tears started to fall. She quickly removed her heels and threw it away as she let out a loud cry and buried her self on the bed.

Great.. Just great..

She sniffled, she did not care if her makeup was a mess. She didn't want to get married yet, she still wants to explore her life first and find herself, not only that, she needs to talk to Gene and convince him to be her fake boyfriend even though she hates his guts so much. She felt a huge lump on her throat as she tried to gulp it down. She grabbed her phone and opened Gene's message.

Gene:
╭─────────╮
Lookin good
there, princess.
╰─────────╯

She frowned and quickly shut her phone as she buried her face deeper into the pillow, she doesn't know why he keeps on messing and flirting with her if he really hates her guts. It's just confusing her. She didn't feel like going to school tomorrow so she decided to cut classes and try to convince Gene to be her fake boyfriend.
