Free Fake Boyfriend by Evan Kelsey Page B

towards us smiling. I smile back and she hugs
me. Taken off guard it takes me a second to hug her back. I see
Ruxin's mothers warm smile coming towards us as well. She hugs
Ruxin as Kelsey releases me.
    "Hi. I'm
Ruxin's sister, Kelsey." She introduces herself.
    "Hi, Eva
Thorpe." I respond. Not feeling comfortable calling myself his
girlfriend.
    "I know!
We've heard all about you. Its been a media frenzy!" Ruxin's mom
gushes, then crushes me against her. For being the same height as
me she sure has some muscle. I pat her back as I feel the air leave
my lungs.
    "Sweetie,
she can't breath." I hear and his mom pulls back.
    "Sorry,
I'm just so excited to meet you. I'm Andrea Novak, Ruxin's mom and
this is my husband Conrad." She says, pulling Conrad
closer.
    "Its nice
to meet you both. I'm Eva Thorpe. " I reply.
    "Welcome
to our home. Come meet the rest of the family." Andrea says,
hooking her arm through mine.
    "Mom,
I'll escort her." Ruxin states.
    "Oh,
right." I see her disappointment.
    "Actually, I'll go with your mom so she can show me more of
her beautiful home." I reply, patting Ruxin's arm and walking back
to a beaming Andrea.
    "This
way." She says, happily. I smile and we walk up to a group of
people who stop talking and turn to us. "Eva, this is my brother
Anthony and his wife Lily." I smile at them as she continues. "This
is Ruxin's best friend Porter Harrison and Kelsey's boyfriend Byron
Jones."
    "Its nice
to meet you." I say to the group.
    "Nice to
meet you too." Porter smiles and turns to Ruxin, who I know is
right behind me. "Why are you looking so down? You're here with a
beautiful women."
    I answer
before Ruxin. "Ignore him. He's pouting."
    "I'm not
pouting." He mutters back.
    I turn to
him. "Yes, you are." I state and turn back to a snickering
group.
    I see
everyone trying to hide their grins. "Let me introduce you to
everyone else, Angel." I hear as Ruxin's arm comes around my waist
and he pulls me towards a group of men his father is talking
to.
    Conrad
smiles at us as we enter the group. "Eva, these are my brothers
Jeremy, Aaron and Rodger." Conrad states introducing the men and
another joins the group introducing himself.
    "Hi,
Devon. Ruxin's cousin."
    "Nice to
meet you." I reply, feeling overwhelmed. I didn't expect to meet so
many people.
    "And
your, Eva?" Devon asks, having missed out on the beginning of our
conversation.
    "Yes,
sorry. Eva Thorpe."
    "Eva!" I
hear Kelsey yell form across the room.
    "Excuse
me." I say, walking back towards Kelsey and Andrea who are standing
with two women I haven't yet met.
    Ruxin
Novak
    "She's
hot. I call dibs after your done with her." Porter states, as he
joins our conversation.
    "Fuck
off."
    "Relax, I
said when you were done."
    "I don't
think Ruxin will be done with Eva anytime soon." Dad
replies.
    "He's
never been in a relationship longer then a night. I bet in two
weeks he's already moved on."
    "I'm not
going anywhere." I state, narrowing my eyes on Porter.
    "We'll
see." He shrugs.
    I don't
bother responding. "Dad, I need to speak to you." I say, walking
away from the group. He follows and I turn to him. "I'll be taking
Eva with me to Europe. It would be nice if you brought mom for the
week we'll be in London. I don't want her alone and that week is
going to be the busiest out of the entire trip."
    "I'll
talk to your mother about it." He replies. "Your really serious
about her? Already?"
    "I know
what I want."
    "She's
sweet. You better be good to her."
    I huff.
"I don't think she'd let me be anything but good to her. I don't
know how it happened, but she can put me to task with a single
look. I made coffee for her, fetched her bag-" I stop when I hear
him laughing loudly. He calms down and pats my shoulder.
    "If you
don't mind being a fetching boy, you must have it bad."
    I don't
respond and he continues.
    "Don't
worry about it. Would you rather her ask someone else to do the
things she asked you to do?" I feel my blood heat thinking of
anyone else making her happy or
