[Out of all the stupidest ideas his friends have ever had, this might've taken the cake. It's not like he doesn't like Chloe, but well, faking a marriage to please the? That was significantly harder. He didn't exactly do pet names, or the sickeningly sweet kisses, or well... everything related to the 'picture perfect' image of a newlywed couple. Except, in order for the Valens name to keep their reputation, Senel had to be Chloe's adoring husband for a few weeks while they visited her home.
This... this would be a lot easier if he knew how he really felt about her. Certainly, she was his best friend, but his girlfriend? It wasn't a thought he entertained very often. He feels awkward enough sharing a room with her; when the maids weren't looking, he had crashed on the couch instead. Senel's never been the greatest liar, but Chloe's reputation is important to her, and he figures, it's the least he could do. (Like he'd allow Moses or Jay to fulfill this job! They'd botch it up faster than he could sneeze.)
Wrestling with his tie - because he never figured out how to properly put it on - he settles for a messy style as he stares in the mirror and sighs (mostly at his pitiful attempts).] I could've sworn this was easier than it looked...
