Be My Pretend Girlfriend
"Do you know how lucky you are?" he answered her question with his own. His voice was low and husky as he leaned his face closer, teasing her. Her breathing hitched and she tiptoed as if it could help avoid his hot breath.
"What do you mean?" she tried to back her head more into the wall but it was a lost cause. The back of her head was already banging into the hard surface. It was causing an unneeded headache to form.
"I mean, don't you know how many women would like to be in your place right now? Yet, you're rejecting me,”
"Who said I'm rejecting you? I said I wanted my own room!”
"That's the same as rejecting me babe," Chris whispered as he blew her ear, making Jihyun shiver. His words were confusing, but when they registered in her brain, she huffed and slammed her head on his side.
Dumbfounded, he looked down at her in confusion as he held her hands tighter, “Dont babe me!” she glared at him and regretted it soon as he had her stare.

When Chris was stuck between meeting his ex-fiancee and keeping his cool in front of his family, he chose the easy road. He forced his ever-loyal secretary to be his fake girlfriend for ten days. Simple. Easier said than done.
Jihyun never wanted to curse at her boss, but bringing her to his family event and making her lie to their faces about being in love with him? It almost drove her off the edge. A disaster! One that she would never ask for.

Chapter: Ch 24Narrator“Good morning,” she greets the younger. “Oh, good morning unnie; it’s good to see you early today and out of bed,” a sly look painted on her face and Jihyun couldn’t help but blush. The happenstance of her wakeup call and in the elevator flashed but she kept her composure.Clearing her throat as if to look not so embarrassed, Jihyun composed herself and uttered a bit confidently, “That was yesterday. He woke up early today to make sure no one intruded on our morning.” Aliaa wiggled her eyebrows as if to say she knew what the older man meant: “I can see why.”“Stop teasing me, please; spare me the embarrassment. I’m here for an omelette.” Aliaa couldn’t help but laugh as Jihyun’s complexion was turning redder as they spoke, so the younger female did spare her the teasing. “Then order away, unnie.” She couldn’t help

Chapter: Ch 23NarratorThe next morning, Chris wakes up before his phone can ring, making sure to close all sorts of alarms on it. He stretches to his side and smiles as he watches Jihyun sleep, still as a baby, as the duvet covers both of their lower body parts. ”It hasn’t been more than 5 nights, but I kind of like waking up with you by my side... What have you done to me, Hyun?”She is sleeping on her side, showing him her front as her hands make a pillow for herself. Soft breathing could be heard, and that told Chris that she was still far away in dreamland. She looks peaceful as she sleeps, and it got him thinking about many things, good and bad, that he could do with her.His thoughts ran wild as he traced her face with his fingers and softly pulled her body closer to his, giving her his arm as a pillow. Her hair, which was a bit messy, had been brushed aside so Chris could get a better view of her bare face. Her skin is pale yet radiant without any form of makeup, complementing her high chee

Chapter: Ch 22NarratorWaking up and feeling like her body was made out of leads, she frowned when the emptiness of the room greeted her. Trying to recall what happened to her before her nap, Jihyun's nose scrunched as her memories were blurry. "Did something happened to me?" she asked aloud as she looked into the vanity mirror, confused as to why there was a hickey on her collarbone suddenly. Try as she might, the happenstance of Luke and Aliaa's old schoolmates flashed and what came next played a stupid movie for her."CHRIS!" she blushed yet her red face wasn't just because she felt butterflies with his action, but it was also due to the fact she was frustrated with the male. His "Don't question the skin-ship I do or intent," was driving her crazy as their days here progressed.***“Don’t, don't go Jihyun...” he whispers in his deep voice as if he knew what kind of effect it has on her, letting shivers run down her spine, back hugging her still.“W-why?” Jihyun shuttered, "Shit!" she felt Chris

Chapter: Ch 21NarratorJihyun stare at the ceiling with a sigh, she’d thought being Chris’s fake girlfriend was easy, but it was easier said than done and what’s worst, her feelings got confused just by his small touches and gentle words. Somehow, it didn’t help either when Raymond suddenly showed up, she’s is afraid that Raymond will tell Chris the truth before she got the chance to explain herself."It’d be easy if I don’t feel anything… is the theory or falling for someone in 60 seconds real? Am I falling for him? But why am I so scared of him finding out? Does it have anything to do with my feelings at all?" thoughts after thoughts flood into her mind, making her move her small frame relentlessly around the bed.

Chapter: Ch 20Narrator"There you are!" Jihyun almost jumped in surprise when she 'exit' the comfort room. Acting as if she wasn't scared by his panicked and worried call earlier, and as if she wasn't just pushed up against the walls a few feet away from where they stood by her ex. Jihyun looked at Chris with a look of pure shock and almost felt overwhelmed when he looked at her for a little too long. "Chris? Is everything okay?""Okay?! Are you-" he looked almost ridiculed for having the woman asked him if he was fine, "I am not okay Jihyun! Didn't I just tell you how worried I was when I couldn't reach you earlier today?" If she was faking her shock a few minutes ago, this time it was real. "You asked to be excused to the comfort room but it's been almost fifteen minutes and I was this close to losing my mind thinking something bad happened to you!"Jihyun blinked her eyes, as she didn't know how to reply to his worried attitude and gesture. She knows he was worried for her safety but to see him

But he stopped short when he saw a familiar figure walking in the same direction as him, “Cameron!” calling to the said female, she turned around and smiled brightly at him in surprise. Her heart raced when he came toward her with a smile plastered on his handsome face. "Did you just got here?" both of them asked at the same time, and it caused them to laugh before nodding at the same time.Winking at Cameron, Raymond didn't need to say anything else for her to know that he was going to flirt with her as if he never met her. “Yeah, I was about to enter the lobby but I saw you’re beautiful face from a mile away,” and with that, she chuckled with a shake of her head. It might look like she was used to his joke but truth be told, deep down, she had always loved and hated it when he does.Hated it because he doesn't mean a word he sa
