Chapter 4

Anabelle's POV

I'm gonna piss off so many people but I don't care. I don't care if this is all just a PR stunt. I'm gonna have as much fun with this as I can. Our "dates" have actually been really fun. A few days after tour I woke up after Curran. I saw he was on his phone.

"Has he been to the house?! I'll be there as soon as I can!"

He threw his phone onto the bed.

"Is everything okay?"

"No! My fucking uncle is outta jail!"

"What did he do?"

"Let's just say he did something to my brother and I told him to do it to me instead. Do you want to come? If not then I'll get you a flight home."

"Can I go? I'm having fun traveling."

"Sure. It might be nice having someone go with me. Hope you like road trips. It sounds like my brother is coming to stay with me for a bit. He normally brings so much stuff he's unable to go on planes."

We put our stuff in the car then Curran started driving. We went from Georgia to Connecticut. When we got there he parked then ran out of the car.

"CAS!"

The door opened. I saw a boy. He looks younger than 18.

"Are you staying with me for a bit?"

"Can I?"

"Yeah."

"Who's this?"

"Hi. I'm Anabelle."

"MOM!! I'M HERE!"

I introduced myself to his mom then we started bring stuff to Curran's car. I was putting the last one in the car when I felt hands go on my shoulders. I was turned around.

"GET OFF HER! WE HAD A DEAL!"

"The deal ended when you opened your mouth!"

"I did what I had to do!"

"Who's the girl?"

"Doesn't matter. She's off limits."

He got in Curran's face.

"Are you on parole?"

"Why does that matter?"

"I'm sure you have some kind of condition."

Curran gasped.

"That's right! We have a restraining order against you!"

"You're the fucking reason I lost my wife! You're the damn reason I lost my kids! You're the reason I lost everything!"

"Good! Like I said! I did what I had to do!"

"You ruined my life!"

"YOU RUINED MY BROTHER'S LIFE!"

"IT'S HIS FAULT HE SAID SOMETHING!"

"HE DIDN'T SAY SHIT! I WALKED IN ON IT! THAT'S WHEN WE MADE THAT DAMN DEAL!"

He let his brother go then grabbed him.

"Shut up!"

"You're wasting my time!"

"You made me waste time because you made me get put in jail!"

"That's because you deserved it! He's 14! He should be going to school! He should have friends! But he doesn't!"

"That's not my fault!"

"Yes it is! He told you to stop! You didn't listen! Instead of stopping you just kept on touching!"

So that's what happened?

"You should've walked away!"

"Are you kidding me?! Are you FUCKING kidding me?! I should've walked away?!"

"Yes!"

"Cas get in the car. You too Ana."

He pushed his uncle away. His arm got grabbed again.

"Get off me!"

Curran stepped on his uncle's foot then jumped into his car. He got us outta there as fast as he could.

"So that's what happened to you?"

"Yeah. Please don't go around telling people."

"I won't. It's not my place to say anything about anyway."

"Thank you."

"Does he know where you live?"

"I hope not."

Curran made sure we weren't being followed. After that he started driving us back to his house.

"Any who this is my brother Castiel. Cas this is my friend Anabelle."

"What do I do if anyone asks about us?"

"I don't care. You can say we're friends or we're dating."

"Sorry if this is too personal but why wasn't your dad there?"

"My parents split last year. I live with our dad. Cas lives with our mom. Our mom is moving though. It's clearly not safe for her where she is now."

He brought us back to dad's house in California. The day after I had to go home since school was starting. Before I left he gave me one of necklaces. When I was back in Florida I immediately told my friends what happened. Not about what happened to him and his brother. I told them everything else.

"YOU GOT TO GO TO FUCKING NEW YORK?!"

"Shh Brandi I'm right next to you!"

"Yes! I had so much fun!"

"Have you even kissed him yet?!"

"Hell yeah!"

"You lucky bitch!"

"I met his family already."

"And he's met yours. You guys move quick."

"What's he like in person? Is he an asshole or is he nice?"

"He's really nice."

"Does he know he saved you?"

"Yeah. He knows."

"Did you guys..ya know?"

"Uhh no.."

"You gotta work on your bucket list!"

"I'm sorry how did you find out about this?"

"Dumbass you spilled everything when we were playing Truth or Dare."

"You're really living your dream."

"And you're welcome! I'm the reason the dogs got out!"

"When's the wedding?"

"There's no wedding."

Not yet at least.

They stayed at my house for hours so I could tell them about tour.

"YOU WERE SHARING A HOTEL ROOM WITH HIM?!"

"Yep! They couldn't get another hotel room so I had to share with him. I told him he didn't have to sleep on the couch."

"YOU SLEPT IN THE SAME BED AS HIM?!"

"Yes! It felt so..natural! His house is nice too!"

"You were in his house?!"

"Yeah."

"Why did it look like?"

"A normal house. I didn't see the whole thing."

"What's his full name?!"

"Curran Stark."

"Invite him to graduation!"

"Good idea!"

"ASK HIM TO PROM OR HOMECOMING!"

"You always complain about having no one to go with you!"

"I-I don't wanna get rejected."

"Are you two friends or are you together?"

Shit!

"We don't know what we are yet."

"You kissed! You fucking kissed and you're telling us that you don't know what you are?!"

I checked my phone and saw what time it was.

"Alright school starts tomorrow. Get out."

When my friends left I laid down on my bed and let everything sink in.

Did I really have my first kiss with my celebrity crush?!

Am I really fake dating him?

*Phone Call with Curran*

"Are you awake? I know we're in different time zones so I don't know."

"No. I'm awake. I still think all of this is still a dream. Did I go too far?"

"Not to me you didn't."

"I-I feel like I crossed so many lines."

"If you did I would've told you. I was enjoying everything. You should go to sleep. I've kept you up for too long. Don't you have school tomorrow?"

"Unfortunately. I should go."

"Okay. Remember to make this as believable as you can. And obviously don't go exposing me."

"I won't."

*End of Phone Call*

I tuned on my alarms then went to sleep. When my alarm went off I was convinced I was still dreaming. I got ready and started walking to school. I put my earbuds in then played Curran's music as I walked.
