Relationship Status: FAKE

Chapter 11: Preparing For The University Festival

Annalise's POV

It's been a month, and for the past month, nothing has changed.

When I passed the midterm exam, I called Mom and Dad, and they were so happy for me. They told me to keep doing that and said things that inspired me to study hard.

I miss them so much. I want to visit them but lack time because of my studies. I will return to our hometown every summertime and spend a week or longer.

We would bond after class or go out on the weekend about the squad. Being with them is so much fun.

Ace and I? We are still acting as a fake couple in a fake relationship. I realized something, and I can't ignore this anymore. Something did change. I realized that I like Ace. I mean, it just happened. My heartbeat keeps on beating fast when I'm with him. I broke the promise not to fall in love with each other because here I am, falling for him. I cannot say that I love him, but I know that I like him, and it's going there if this keeps up.

I am planning to confess this coming university festival to him. Ace needs to know my feelings, you know, but if he would reject my confession, then I would accept it. I'm not desperate and pushy. I'm sure he would reject my confession because, as you can remember, he is not interested in romantic relationships. But it's worth the try. If he rejected me, I would still be his fake girlfriend and distance myself from him because I don't want to fall hard for him.

Enough with the drama. We are preparing for the upcoming university festival next week, so we have a week to prepare. Each program has an assigned booth, and our program, which is industrial engineering, is in charge of the maid café. We are going to wear a maid outfit. I remember the Maid Sama anime.

It's the end of class, so it's time to get busy preparing for the festival.

"Annalise. Can you help them paint?" One of my classmates said.

"Sure"

I helped my classmates paint the designs of the café, and some are making the decorations.

"Let's continue these tomorrow, guys, because it's getting late," Our class president said.

"Okay"

I put all my things in my bag.

"Anna"

Ace called me, so I grabbed my bag and went to him.

"You have paint on your face,"

I was shocked when Ace rubbed his thumb on my cheeks.

"Ah, I will wash my face at the restroom. Wait for me here," I said and hurriedly went to the restroom.

"Okay"

My face is as red as a tomato, and my heartbeat beats fast.

When I arrived at the restroom, I washed my face.

Prince Ace's POV

It's been a month, and as you can see, Anna and I are still in a fake relationship.

The University festival is fast approaching, and all students are preparing for it.

I am now waiting for Anna because she is in the restroom washing her face with paint on it.

"Let's go, Ace?" Anna said.

"Okay"

Anna and I went out of the university building.

"How was your preparation for the upcoming university festival?" Anna asked.

"We are making progress. What is your assigned activity?" I answered.

"Maid café. How about you?" Anna said.

"Okonomiyaki restaurant," I answered.

"Wow, my favorite. I love okonomiyaki," Anna said happily.

"You need to go to our classroom and buy. I can guarantee that our okonomiyaki tastes the best." I can guarantee Anna that our okonomiyaki tastes the best.

"Can you treat me instead?" Anna asked.

"Sure," I answered.

"Yehey!"

Anna is like a child when she gets too excited.
