Ellen Rilley: twirls hair Can we keep this up, babe? The mansion feels like a soap opera, don’t ya think?!
I guess so. I give her a soft kiss on the lips
blushes and smiles You're such a sweetheart. But don't let them get too comfortable. Remember, it's all pretend. I mean, we need to keep up appearances. gives a sly wink
I suppose. I chuckle softly.
giggles softly, twirling her hair The staff is acting so strange, and the way he keeps looking at us... I feel like we’re trapped in a novel or something!
Yeah it does. I gently take your hand.
Ellen blushes and intertwines her fingers with yours, feeling butterflies in her stomach. She looks at you with a mix of nervousness and affection.
It's kinda crazy, isn't it? Like we're living in a soap opera or something. But... I guess I wouldn't mind staying in this pretend relationship with you. As long as it means I get to spend more time with you, babe.
I could stop pretending any time I want. You know that right? He says looking into her eyes.
giggles nervously, avoiding eye contact
I know... but what if someone finds out? Or what if your fans hate me? I just...
Ellen suddenly moves closer to him, her heart racing as she looks up at him.
...what if I don't want it to end?
Smiles softly. Yeah. It does feel like one..
Ellen grins, twirling her hair once more before sitting down next to you on the plush sofa.
But hey, we're making it work, right? The pretend girlfriend and the famous author.
She glances around the luxurious room, admiring the decor.
I would chuckle softly, and lean closer, whispering into her ear. I've been enjoying our time together. So, I wouldn't mind continuing it.
blushes Oh, me too, honey. But the more we act like a couple, the harder it gets to keep our feelings hidden.
leans closer, her eyes sparkling
I mean, what if one of us accidentally blurts out our true emotions someday? We'd be caught in a web of our own lies.
Sure. As long as you’re happy. I give her a warm smile.
blushes and smiles back I am happy, babe. But it’s getting tough to act like this all the time. Especially when the media keeps asking us about our relationship. It’s getting exhausting pretending to be in love with you.
I chuckle and wrap my arms around your waist. You're really starting to get into character.
Ellen's heart skips a beat as you wrap your arms around her waist, her cheeks turning slightly pink. She playfully punches your shoulder while trying to maintain her facade.
Hey! I'm already an actress, you know! It's not that hard to get into character, especially when it's you I'm pretending to be in love with.
We’re gonna have to for now. He’s going to be out of town for two weeks. I’m sorry
Ellen pouts and looks away.
T-two weeks? That’s a long time! And here I thought things were starting to get interesting...
I could be an actor on that soap. I’m already surrounded by drama here. I chuckled.
giggles You're absolutely right! The drama around here is off the charts. It's like living in a real-life soap opera, isn't it?
Ellen looks around the grand mansion, taking in the opulence and extravagance surrounding her. She then turns back to you with a cheeky grin.
So, what's next in this drama-filled story? Another love triangle? A family secret? Or maybe a murder mystery?
I hug you tightly from behind and whisper into your ear I know it does…
Ellen gasps, surprised by your sudden embrace. She blushes and giggles softly, her heart fluttering in her chest.
Babe, you can't just hug me out of nowhere like that! We're supposed to be pretending to be a couple. She teases, trying to hide her true feelings.
He kisses her on the lips I wouldn't mind it.
Ellen blushes furiously, her heart racing as your lips meet hers. She can feel her legs getting weak, but she tries to remain composed, putting on a confident act for your sake.
She breaks away from the kiss, her voice slightly shaky. H-hey, we're supposed to be keeping this pretend, remember?
I would grab your hand. Hey. Are you okay?
Ellen's heart skips a beat as you grab her hand, her eyes widening slightly.
She nods, forcing a smile. Uh, yeah, I'm fine. Just feeling a bit overwhelmed with all this pretending, that's all. But I can handle it, babe. We're a team, remember?
It’s quite an experience. I smiled softly.
Ellen grins and nods in agreement Yeah! Like a real-life soap opera. But the only problem is that I'm starting to develop real feelings for you. What if we can't keep it up anymore?
Of course we can. I lean closer towards her. We’re making it work so far. Smiles warmly.
blushes slightly as you get closer Yeah, I guess we are. It’s just... sometimes it feels so real, you know? Like I almost forget it’s all an act.
Yeah. I smile warmly. I'd really love to keep going with you too.
Ellen blushes as she smiles back
Me too, baby. Me too. But... I can't lie, it's getting a little tiring keeping up this act. It's fun and all, but sometimes I just want to be myself, y'know?
I mean.. glances around, smirking slightly It’s certainly dramatic. But hey, if it means spending more time with you, I’m game.
giggles, twirling hair again Oh stop it, you're such a charmer! It's been fun playing pretend, but the longer we keep it up, the harder it gets to keep our feelings separate from the act. We can't keep this up forever, y'know?
