Aveline replied, "Couldn't sleep, so I just kept watching movies."

Selena moved closer, sat beside her, hugged her arm, and rested her head on her shoulder.

"Ave, I'm dating Aaron now," she announced.

"What?" Aveline looked at her in shock.

Selena then recounted what had happened, finishing with a light laugh, "I didn't expect him to agree so readily."

Aveline frowned. "Have you really thought this through?"

Selena shrugged. "What choice do I have if I haven't? I can't really afford to piss him off; if I do, I'll be the one facing the consequences. If I can enjoy myself instead, why should I suffer?"

Aveline pondered for a moment and nodded. "You have a point."

Selena noticed Aveline's serious expression and chuckled, "Oh, come on, don't worry about me. I know what I'm doing. Who knows, maybe in three months, we'll actually develop feelings for each other. If Aaron ends up insisting on marrying me, wouldn't I be the winner then?"

Aveline was silent for a moment before saying, "I hope everything goes as you wish."

Selena laughed, got up, and said, "I'm going to take a shower. You should get some rest soon too."

"Okay."

Aveline nodded, watching her as she went into her room. Her feelings were mixed.
