*unedited so it contains lots of grammar mistakes*
His eyes dug into my soul as he impatiently waited for an answer. His lips mouthing 'say yes'.
"Uh.." I mumbled, biting my lip in a desperate attempt to bring myself back to reality. It wasn't working, this wasn't a nightmare, this was real. I was actually getting proposed to by a total handsome stranger who looked desperate enough to make me actually say yes. He shut his eyes but his face continued to face me.
I felt something tug in my heart and my mouth parted slightly. "Yes" I blurted and my eyes widen in horror. His eyes snapped open and he was as shocked as I was. He looked down for a moment until his eyes landed on my legs. Whilst people around him celebrated, he was interested in my legs instead. I cursed under my breath at the fact that I just said yes to a random proposal where the guys a total pervert.
"You're bleeding" the guy breathed as his fingers wrapped around my leg. He moved in closer and lifted my dress up ever so slightly and pressed his thumb against my cut. His cold touch made my body tingle and I squealed in shock.
"What are you doing, are you serious right now?!" I hissed, slapping his hands but they wouldn't budge. I glanced around me and people gave us odd looks. Oh God, this is so embarrassing. The guy cleared his throat and finally stood up and holy carrots he was tall.
"Ah" he laughed "the ring". He quickly pulled the ring out of the box and grabbed my hand. He looked me in the eye and a smirk crept up on his lips. He slipped the ring on my finger and the crowd went wild.
"Kiss!" A voice yelled from the back and I almost stumbled over.
The handsome guy wrapped his arms around my waist tightly, and pulled me closer. Before I could proceed this his lips pressed against mine. His eyes were closed tight.
My eyes began to close and this kiss felt so damn real. I was mesmerised. I felt a sudden sting on my lower lip and it was him trying to shove his tongue down my throat. hell no. I snapped back to reality and bit his lip causing him to pull away wincing in pain. He shot me death threats.
"Ah how lovely" an middle aged woman spoke as she approached us. "It's so nice to finally meet you" she said "although I would've liked it to have been before you both got engaged"

I gave her an awkward smile. The smile that said 'I have no idea what's going on but I'm just going to play with it'. My 'fiancée' stood by my side with his arms resting on my waist.
"Mom, it's not her fault" he said. The 'mother' nodded and gave him a smile.
"Yes Liam, I know! It's all yours. You just wanted to keep her all to yourself!" She said whilst laughing. My fiancée faked a laugh and glanced at me.
"all to myself" He repeated after her.
"So, aren't you going to introduce us?" his mom asked, raising her eyebrows. 'Liam' looked at me and realisation finally hit him that he has no idea who I am.
"babe, why don't you introduce yourself?" he asked in between his teeth with a kind smile. I faked a smile
"but really you should introduce us to each other" I replied back, battering my eyelashes at him. He tusked quietly before nudging me to do it.
I stumbled forward and shot him a death stare. If looks could kill, he'd be at the morgue right now. I cleared my throat and began to speak. "My name is Adeline, Adeline Carter".
The mom grinned with joy "well Adeline, I'm Julie but please do call me mom now that you are the member of the family!" she giggled with delight. I felt a pang of guilt for faking it in front of a woman who believes this is all real. what have I gotten myself into?
After the mom disappeared everyone began to surround us. One particular man stood in the corner and watched us carefully, almost as if he can see through this lie. His eyes bore into mine and a shiver ran down my spine. I turned my gaze away and it landed on Adrian..Adrian?! Oh God, how did I forget about him?
"Addy?" He called as he began to approach me. His eyebrows furrowed in confusion.
"what are you doing..with my boss?!" He exclaimed, gobsmacked at the fact that his boss had his arms around me. I paused for a moment and looked between Liam and Adrian. boss..boss...Liam's his boss?!
Liam was right on cue. "And this is the end of meeting my fiancee" He said, pulling me away "now if you'll excuse us I need to tend to her cut". He grabbed my wrist and dragged me away from the crowd. Adrian called after me and I bowed my head apologetically. The poor thing looked as if he was abandoned. Well he was..by me

Liam pulled us in a quiet room and locked the door behind us. A laugh escaped his lips as he loosened his tie. He unhooked the buttons and released his blazer revealing a plain white shirt underneath. The outline of his abs showed through the shirt.
"you done baby?" he asked with a smirk. a blush crept up my cheek and I turned my face away. Dammit I just got caught checking him out. Can this get any worse?
"Now" he breathed "how do we fix this?"
I raised my eyebrow and snorted. "we? uh no, you got us in this mess so you fix it"
He frowned. "If you haven't forgotten, you're the one who actually said yes to a fake proposal"
I huffed. "well maybe because I'm a really nice person and saw how desperate you were"
He looked offended and sat on the couch with his body slouched back. His eyes darkened and he was not amused. "no one asked you to say yes" he snapped at me.
I touched my heart, feeling offended. Is that what I get for being nice to this jerk? "fine, go and find yourself another nice person to play your fake ass fiancee" I grunted before spinning around and stomping towards the door. I made sure to make it extra loud so he knew I was pissed.
"wait.." He mumbled with a sigh. I stopped and spun around. In the process of doing that I almost stumbled over but managed to get my balance back. I really hate heels.
"what?" I asked without any emotions in my voice.
He ran his hands through his lock of hair. "I'm sorry" he apologised "I know you were only trying to help". I nodded in agreement, of course I was. You looked like a damn puppy and I can't resist puppies. "please" he pleaded "help me once more"
I bit my lip. Haven't I done enough already? I saved the guy from humiliation of being rejected and even pretended to be his fiancee. And I'm not even charging him for any of these..maybe I should. "uh..yeah..no" I muttered. He groaned and began to unbutton the top few of his shirt. "whoa..whoa" I repeated holding my hands out "If this is the help you mean then if you come any closer then you're going to end up in A&E with a heel stuck in your..balls"
The guy seemed amused. He pushed himself up and chuckled. "Did you really think I'd do that?" He asked with a hint of pain in his voice. I blinked a few times. "I was hot" he explained. I pressed my lips together to stop myself from screaming in embarrassment. How could I be so stupid?! I mentally slapped myself. I need to go home and sleep. Hopefully when I wake up this will all be a dream. please be a dream
"now the help I was asking for" he began, as he slowly approached me. I smiled awkwardly and took a few steps back. He continued to walk with a playful smirk. I couldn't look him in the eye and moved back until I hit against something- the wall. He stopped right in front of me.
"w-what?" I stuttered. He licked his lips "pretend" he spoke "pretend to be my fiancée for a while"
I spun my head and raised my eyebrow. I gave him a 'are you serious?' look. Boy, he was serious.
"no way" I snorted. I couldn't afford to get anymore involved then I already was.
"you're already involved" he grunted as if he read my mind.
I sighed and crossed my arms over my chest. "please" He begged "just for a while and then I'll cut it off and you can get back to your normal life" I couldn't believe I was actually considering his proposal. I shook the thought out of my head. No matter how cute he looked right now I just couldn't agree.
I bit my lip and forced a "no" out of my mouth. The guilt of abandoning this puppy was too much to bare so I turned around to walk away.
"I'll pay you!" He exclaimed "I'll pay for whatever the heck you want, heck I'll do whatever you want me to do but please, just say yes"
did he just say pay?

Grim Beginnings
For most, ghosts and monsters were fantasy. For Tessa Byrne-Reyes, they were a constant in her daily life as a reaper. The legendary gods and creatures of mythology were, to her, historical figures. From a young age, she carried the weight of the world on her shoulders, possessing what she saw as a curse but what her family considered a gift. It was her birthright, to use her abilities to guide the deceased to the afterlife of an eternity in peace or in torment. Her classmates viewed her as "the fainting girl" who would pass out in the middle of a lesson with inexplicable injuries. She experienced each death in the town of Belmont Falls, from the mundane to the gruesome. A gunshot wound in the gut, broken ribs, her heart ceasing to beat for several minutes. No one understood what caused these incidents but over the years, she gained a reputation for being abnormal. While Tessa is the freak of Belmont Falls, Fin Belmont, the charming rebel and son of the richest man in town, is her polar opposite. Knowing each other for years but never saying more than a dozen words between them, one night changes everything, thrusting them into each other's unfamiliar and daunting worlds. Together, with the help of her best friend/his ex-girlfriend Elena, they begin to unravel secrets about their town and their pasts, learning that some secrets are better left buried and grudges can be held for centuries.
