Lucas sweeps Mona off her feet--he literally saves her when she falls down the stairs at the Met Gala--and for just one second Mona wants to let her walls come down. So, it hurts a lot when he betrays her, and even more when their moms demand they pretend to keep dating to appease their respective fan bases. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eNormally, a fake relationship would be manageable for Mona.
