Camila's POV-

"What would that be?", I responded back. I know just by the look on his face that he is determined to make this plan go through. Deep down I know that whatever it is he wants me to do, I can't say no.

"Camila, I'm going to need you to be put into a relationship."

What the hell? What does that even mean? Too many thoughts for my own good were running through my brain.

"What do you mean? How is this going to help the group?", I asked.

"Well, Camila. There is a bit of a twist to this relationship. You're going to be put with a woman."

Y/N POV-

Right as I was done writing the last few lyrics of the song I'm working on, my phone rang. The contact name said it was Scooter. I hit the green button.

"Hey,Y/N. What're you up to?", he spoke. He sounded really happy.

"Hey, I'm just writing right now. What's up?"

"Well, I think we should have a little meeting."

I might be crazy, but it sounded like his voice fell into a more serious tone than before.

"Okay, what about?"

"We can just talk when I get to the studio. I'll be there in 10."

After that, we said our goodbyes. Although having meetings with Scooter was very normal, something seemed off. Usually, Scooter is easy to be around and meetings are really just us goofing off. This time, it sounded like he was almost scared to tell me something over the phone. As I was drowning in my thoughts, time passed and Scooter walked in. He sat down on the chair in front of me and scooted closer.

"So, Y/N. I have some news. I don't know if you're going to be too thrilled.", he said.

"What's the news?", I asked curiously.

"Well, since you have an album coming out, you're obviously going to need more publicity."

I immediately have a bad feeling about this. I know Scooter only wants the best for me, but right now I'm anxious.

"Okay...",I responded with an unsure tone.

"Y/N,you're going to have to be put into a relationship with someone in the industry. That person is going to be a girl."

My brain immediately started freaking out. How do I deal with this? This feels so wrong.

"How is that even possible, Scooter?", I asked in an angry tone.

"Y/N, when you get seen out with this person, the public will go crazy. They'll see you on dates and then you're names will be out there."

I can barely contain my anger. It feels like I'm being used. What if this doesn't even help me gain anything. Hell, what if the person hates my guts? Have I met them before? I can't stop thinking.

Camila's POV-

"What do I have to do?", I asked Simon with a nervous voice. I don't think I've been this nervous around him.

"You are going to be put into a relationship with another superstar. I will be the one choosing who it will be."

Are you kidding me? I can't just be put into a relationship. This is the craziest thing I've ever heard. He is acting like I'm his toy. Before I could reply, he spoke again.

"And this relationship will be with a woman. Y/F/N Y/L/N, in fact."

And with that, he walked out of the room with a grin on his face. I was left speechless and unable to move. I was snapped out of this by a security guard snapping his fingers in my face. I rushed to the car, tears threatening to fall. Dinah grabbed my shoulder just as I was about the reach the van door.

"Mila, what's wrong?"

I started to cry. Dinah helped me into the van and sat in the back with me.

"Tell me what is going on, Camila.", Dinah said.

"Simon is putting me in a relationship with another girl!", I practically yelled through my tears

She didn't even speak, she just put her arms around me. My thoughts were racing. I couldn't stop thinking about what everyone was going to think. I've never spoke about my sexuality publicly. How could I handle being outed AND being put into a relationship. The only people that know about me being bi is the girls and management. They've never acted on it, other than me not being able to speak about it or act on it. Now I'm being put in a relationship? It feels like everything is going to end.

Y/N's POV-

"What?!", I almost yelled at Scooter.

"Y/N, calm down. Just listen."

How am I supposed to be calm about this? Not only is this fake, but it's also stupid! How would this benefit my career?

"This would help your debut album get so much more publicity. Not only will it help your sales, but it'll help people remember your name."

I hate to admit this, but he has a point. But this is so wrong. What if the other person hates me?

"Who is it going to be with?", I question.

"Camila Cabello."
