I went down stairs and was about to go outside, to hopefully get out of this house. On my way out the door, I ran right into my parents. "Mom, dad your back early!" I hugged both of them. "Well, I was just so excited about our surprise for you that I could not just wait." I looked at them, and they both moved out of the way revealing a very nicely dressed boy. He looked around my age, with brown eyes and blonde hair. I looked at my parents wondering if this was it. "Eve, we want you to meet Shane, your arranged boyfriend."

Wait. What?!?

I did the only normal thing that I new how to do. I slammed the door in their faces, and ran up stairs and hide under my blankets. When I made it to my room, I thought I was safe until a pair of hands covered my eyes.

"I swear, if you don't get your hands off my face I will kick you where the sun don't shine!" When I turned around of course I was greeted
with the devil himself. "Whoah, chill. I just heard what your parents said, and I know that means that I should be leaving now." He turned around and was on his way to the door, but before he reached the door, he turned around with the same smirk that I hated so much. "Even though another guy is in the picture, I won't stop trying to win you back."

I stood there literally numb. I had no clue what to feel at the moment! First the guy that I started to fall for kissed another girl in front of me, then my parents arranged a boyfriend for me. How worse could my life get!!

All of a sudden I heard the voices of my parents and loud footsteps coming up to my room. I did was every other sane teenager would do, I locked my door. Haha! Try to get in now! While I was doing my own little victory dance I heard my door unlock. **** I forgot there my parents have a key to my room!!

I need to make a plan, and fast. I can hide under my bed, yess!! I quickly went under the bed, and next thing I saw was feet coming into my room. "I swear she would be in here." Why, mom, why.... "come on Shane, let's go down to the living room and maybe she will turn up." Yes, go down the stairs so I can sneak out the window. "If it alright with you, Mrs. Rose I would like to stay here and wait for her." I assumed my mom nodded, because she never said anything and just left.

I held my breath as I felt the bed shift on top of me. My god this guy weighs a ton! I heard a loud sigh, and whistling. Ugh, can't he leave..
"I know you are in here Eve, just come out and let's talk." Yeah, right! Talk, let's see how about, never! Wait, I don't hear anything. I listened very carefully, and started to slowly crawl to the edge were I could see.

Next thing that I know, someone grabs my leg and pulls me out from under the bed! How rude, I was hiding from the creeper! "Hey! Let me go!!" "I just want to talk to you, now will you let me?" I looked at him, and man can I say he was cute as ever! He was pouting like a little kid, and his hair was a bit messed up. He looked so cute, what snap out of it!

You are suppose to hate this guy, not think he is cute. I hate my inner self some times. "Fine, let's talk. Let's start with the part were you leave my room, and I never see you again. Bye!" I went to get up, but he pulled me down, right on top of him! "Nice try, but I really need to talk to you." I sat up the right way, after hiding the blush that I hope is not noticeable. "Don't try to hide the blush from me." Can he read minds?!?

"Are you going to explain to me what is going on here, or no?" He looked at me, and took a deep breath. "Look, I did not know about this at all. All I know is that your parents and my parents were really great friends, and they made a deal that both of their kids would end up together. They got together, arranged us to date until we get to the age when we can get married. I was literally dragged here, and look I don't mind being here, but I don't want you to think that this was my idea. Since we are both forced to be with each other for the time being, how about we make a deal?"
