I Like You, I Hate Her

Jo

I'm not bad; they just write me that way.

That's what I tell myself-the lie I peddle in interviews.

If they want a bad girl, I can be their bad girl.

Their villain.

Years ago, I broke the heart of the biggest pop star in the world.

And then I became the Sexiest Man Alive's biggest regret.

I am not that venomous girl anymore.

But I know a life-changing role when I see one.

Being Tristan Kane's on-screen love interest will be good for my career.

And bad for my heart.

For him? I aim to devastate both.

Tristan

The world thinks it's easy being the son of Hollywood royalty.

But they don't know the burdens I wear.

Or the regrets in my chest-that all say her name.

Loving Josephine Ouellette goes against my late father's wishes.

Fits into my meddling manager's plans.

And pisses my sister off.

But I'm tired of living in his shadow.

Living for their games.

I fell in love with a villain.

And no one loves harder than the scorned.
