Not A Lie

Wait!" Tom raised his hand to stop her before she could open her mouth to voice her objection.

"Just hear me out first. I understand you are not interested in guys or relationships... I'm not asking you to be my girlfriend for real. Just let me practice how to be a good boyfriend with you, and then you can point out my flaws while we are at it, and make me an ideal boyfriend," Tom said, looking at her hopefully.

Lucy let out an awkward laugh, "I don't think that is a good idea. I don't even have any relationship experience, so how am I supposed to make you the perfect boyfriend?" She asked in amusement.

"Exactly! You could also learn a thing or two about guys and relationships in the process. Haven't you ever wondered what being in a relationship would be like? You could just do this for fun. It's a win-win for us both," Tom suggested with a smile, but Lucy wasn't smiling.
