*****Riley's POV*****
Last night was fun. Brielle and I had a few
drinks and after that we went back to the
apartment. Now it was back to the reality of a
job.
"Morning," I replied.
"How are things going? I have your next
article ready for print if you want to check it
out before I send it over to Mrs. Truelly," she
said.
"Sure," I replied.
"I actually checked up on the whole fake
thing last night," Olivia said.
"No. I can't do it," I said.
"Riley! This can work. He's single, attractive,
he works, and he would be willing to do it,"
she said.
"And he would be able to act as my
boyfriend for a weekend?" I asked.
"Yes. You have a lunch date with him today
to go over the game plan," she said.
"Today? I have way too much stuff for it to be
today," I replied.
"Riley, you use this excuse all of the time.
You're going," she said.
"What do I even do? What do I say? How
much will I pay him?" I replied.
"Okay, calm down. You pretty much go in and
tell him a reasonable price. A game plan for
that weekend. The terms you guys agree on or
want to agree on," she said.
"So, I just tell him that we will go there and he
will act as my boyfriend for a weekend and
$500 is all his?" I asked.
"Yeah, that's kind of high, but you also make a
lot more than me," she replied.
"Okay, fine. I'll go, but if anything goes wrong,
I'm done," I replied.
"Okay," Olivia replied excited.
*****Noon At Peter's Cafe*****
As I walked in, there were three booths open. I
placed myself at the one in the middle right. I
didn't even know what this guy looked like, let
alone who he was. He could be a serial killer
for all I knew. Although, what did I have to
worry about Liv knew how to work her magic.
Just as the waiter got to me, a guy appeared
before me.
"Ordering without me?" he asked as he sat
across from me.
"You must be... Ryan," I said shocked. It was
the guy from the restaurant. I couldn't believe
this. He of all people would be the fake
boyfriend.
"Oh, right. Riley from last night," he replied
with a smile.
"Are you being serious right now?" I asked.
"What do you mean?" he replied.
"Did Olivia send you?" I asked.
"Yeah, she told me there was money involved
and I agreed. Why do you need a fake
boyfriend?" he asked.
"It's a long story. Let's just say my family is
always nagging me about finding a boyfriend
and my sister threatened to make me go with
her ex to her own wedding if I didn't find
someone," I replied.
"So you want me to pretend to be your
boyfriend at your sister's wedding?" he asked.
"Yeah, that would be great and you walk away
with $500," I said.
"$500 for just a weekend? I'm in," he replied.
"Seriously?" I asked.
"Yes. What are we anyways? Are we like dating
or pretending to have been together for a long
time and it's serious, or are we just sex
buddies?" he asked.
"Sex buddies? Woah! You're getting paid to
pretend, not the real thing," I replied.
"You might want to. You never know. If you
are paying me to be your boyfriend, you haven't
gotten any in over a year," he replied.
"It's been less than a year. Can we move on
now? Okay, we are just talking and went on a
few dates. I invited you to the wedding and
you work as a what? How old are you
anyways?" I asked.
"I work for a hospital. I am 25. Ryan Chase. I
don't like when girls are controlling. I like
food. I like football, basketball and girls," he
replied.
"If you work for a hospital, what do you need
$500 for?" I asked.
"Something important," he replied.
"So, how did Olivia find you?" I asked.
"Well, she's my sister," he replied.
"No wonder she made you do this."
"She didn't make me," he said.
"I don't believe that," I replied.
"You can believe whatever you want. So how'd
we meet?" he changed the subject.
"Olivia?" I asked.
"No, we met at a greek restaurant. That's the
real story," he said.
"How long we been dating?" I asked.
"4 months.," he said.
"No, that's too long," I said.
"No it's not. Just go with it," he said.
"Fine," I replied.
"Where do you work?" he asked.
"I'm your sister's boss. I write the monthly
articles for Truelly News," I replied.
"Nice. Let's just eat and get to know each
other seeing that you are my girlfriend now," he
teased with a cocky smile that make me
cringe.
The rest of the time we got to know each
other. He seemed like one of those typical
guys women dream to be with, "The Player".
Maybe I was wrong though. He liked to joke
around and have fun which I kinda missed
because Gabe liked to do that. I hate to even
talk about him because he was just some
asshole that broke my heart and moved away.
"Well, this was nice. Let me know when you
want to meet up again or the next time you
need me," he replied shaking my hand.
"Okay I will. Thanks again Ryan," I replied as
we went our separate ways.
***** Later that night*****
"I'm going now," I said to Olivia.
"You never did tell me how it went," she
asked.
"It was okay," I replied.
"Okay. Call your sister, too," she said.
"Thanks, see you tomorrow," I replied as I
took off out the door.
"Hey you called?" I asked Sara.
"Yeah. We changed the dresses to tonight,"
she said.
"What? Are you serious?" I asked.
"Yeah. The weekend won't work. Can you
come up a day early?" she asked.
"I guess. I'll call you right back," I said
hanging up to call Olivia to give her my orders
for tomorrow being that it was Thursday night
and now I had to miss Friday.
"Olivia, Sara changed the date, so now I have
to take off tonight. You will just have to take
that article to Mrs. Truelly," I said.
"Okay I will," she said hanging up and dialing
Sara's number.
"Sara? GIve me an hour. I just left," I said.
"Okay, we're going at 6 anyways," she said.
