Slowly, Julian moved his arm forward, placing his hand onto my shoulder instead. 

In my head, I commanded myself, Don’t go stiff. Don’t

stiff. Don’t

stiff. 

If I cared for Julian romantically, I would be pleased by this clear sign of ownership and affection. So I tried to play the part and smile. It felt uneasy on my lips. 

God, I was such a terrible liar. The cameras were likely capturing my awkwardness. 

I had to try harder. I really had to sell my feelings for Julian. 

I took a breath, giving myself a moment to think. If Nicholas had done this instead of Julian, how would I have reacted? 

It wouldn’t be the same, but if I was playing pretend… 

I imagined Julian to be Nicholas, and that it was Nicholas’s arm around me. 

Then I smiled for real. 

Julian’s own smile slipped. He blinked, his eyes wide for a moment. He swallowed hard.

I waited until our double date was officially over. When both Julian and Olivia were pandering to different cameras, I slunk back into the shadows and asked Nicholas, “Can we talk?” 

He didn’t say anything, just nodded, and led me toward the foyer. A series of closets lined one wall. There was chatter around, but no one in the direct vicinity. No one would see us talking here. 

“You have to stop,” I said. 

He stared at me. He didn’t say a word.
