i smile at my idea and they all raise an eyebrow, almost in sync. "okay, okay hear me out. it's a challenge, there'll be two pairs since there's four of us and whoever basically convincing the fans that they're dating without kissing, wins." they all looked completely shocked at my idea but i still held my head up waiting for a response, which was getting pretty fucking awkward. ethan finally broke the silence, "what would the loser have to do?"

shit i didn't even think about that.. i grabbed my coffee from the side table i had left it on earlier and took a sip before thinking of something, "tattoo of the winner's choosing." i smiled. oh wait i'm seventeen. i need a parents permission shit, i guess i can't lose.

they all looked at each other, almost as if they were judging my idea, c'mon what the fuck no one else was thinking of anything! grayson cleared his throat before talking, "that could be fun." he looked me up before finishing his words, "so who would go with who?" he raised his right eyebrow and it was intimidating as hell. i felt myself swallow but nothing, "um i don't know." without knowing i did it i glanced at ethan, he looked like he was out of it, staring into space and shit.

i turned my attention back onto grayson who was now looking to james.

i had always wondered if grayson was lowkey gay.. or even bi. the way he looks at james.. i don't know, there's just something about it. i wish someone would look at me like that. i'm #single boys hit me up!!

ethan's eyes were on me, so i just broke the silence, "okay we don't have to do it it was just a thought." i smiled, i didn't know if my place in this group was secured or not.. i've been getting a lot of hate on social media lately and i don't know, it seems like their whole fan base hates me or something. but it's whatever.. what can you do?

i pull down my blue sleeves and look around, waiting for someone to respond, when grayson did. "i mean it's a good idea but i don't know what our fans would think." i understood that, most of there fans basically are imaginary dating them so.. i guess i can understand, we didn't have to do the idea.

ethan looked at me while i was thinking about it, before he stood up and said, "let's just fucking do it, they'll find out on tuesday anyway." i nodded, he was right, it wouldn't be that big of a deal. the only complicated part is gonna be who goes with who.. everyone knows that james likes boys so it wouldn't be convincing if i were to pair up with him, and ethan and grayson are twins so.. incest, twincest.

grayson brought up the same point from before just as i was thinking about it, "who goes with who?" james seemed distracted this entire time, he wasn't himself almost. he had barley talked all this time.

"ethan and emma, grayson and me" james suggested, clicking his nails together on the back of his hand. i guess that could work but would the fans actually buy it?

ethan raised an eyebrow before nodding, "that could work." we were all looking now to grayson to see his reaction. grayson looked down at the ground, playing with his fingers.

i didn't know if he would be okay with that, "grayson, that sounds good?" he made eye contact with me before nodding, taking one for the team.

ethan got up and grabbed his phone, "so when do we start filming bitches?" i huffed then shrugged.

"now?" i suggested, crossing on of my legs over the other, resting my head on my hand looking at everyone.

"that sounds good to me." ethan smiled and signaled us to come over the to the filming room, we all got off of our asses and followed him. we sat down on the purple couch as ethan set up everything.

i opened my phone and revealed messages from ellie.

from: ellie 😎😎
hey emma i need to talk to you about something can you call me later? lol this sounds so serious what the fuck i hate myself

i smiled, but wondered what she needed. i mentally decided to call her after we filmed.

to: ellie 😎😎
yeah i'm filming ill call u after bitch 🤣

now ethan had sat down next to me, grayson next to ethan, james next to grayson.

ethans hand rested on the couch next to where mine was.

"what's up guys? we're BACK!" ethan and grayson shouted insync.

"hey sisters!" james smiled at the camera, it was my turn to say hi?

"sup fuckers." i said staring directly at the camera, holding piece signs up almost in front of my face, earning laughs from ethan and grayson. james was still a bit off, i don't know why.

ethan looked at me, "so do you wanna explain what we're doing this week?" i nodded, looking into the camera, raising my voice a bit.

"so basically, we're doing a FAKE DATING CHALLENGE, i know it sounds fucking weird but fuck man, it's gonna be hilarious as hell and i'm excited, IM SINGLE BOYS HIT ME UP." i laughed before stopping my talking. ethan hit the side of my thigh, what was that for?

"so it's going to be, grayson and i, then ethan and emma." james spoke up, grayson nodded, agreeing with him.

i see from the corner of my eye, ethan's jaw clench. what a sight. i forgot i was on camera for a second and just looked back into it. i felt myself begin to yawn.

"so we're gonna try to convince YOU GUYS that we're dating. basically the pair that convinces more people wins, the loser has a punishment of the winners choosing." ethan explained to the camera. i nodded, catching myself looking to him every other second. why couldn't i keep my eyes off of him?

"the winner gets to choose the loser's brand new tattoo." i say loudly, looking to everyone. they nodded, ethan was being extra and biting his black shirt.

"let the fake dating challenge begin!" grayson added before putting his hand over the camera for a transition i'm assuming.

can't wait.
