Beth let out a long sigh. "I've kind of messed up a bit. I'm going home for Thanksgiving and my parents are wanting me to bring home a boyfriend. I was trying to get my mom off my back but now they think I'm in a relationship. And I was wondering if maybe Brian could pretend to be my boyfriend? Just for a few days over Thanksgiving. I know it's a lot to ask. Nothing would happen. Maybe just some hand holding or something." She was rambling now but she needed Vanessa to be on her side.
