TORI's POV *
"Ladies and Gentlemen, may I have your attention please." Zach cried-out.
He wrapped his right hand around my shoulder and drawn me closer to him. "This girl here is Victoria Peige, the heiress of the famous Prestige Hotels, she's my new girlfriend."
My eyes widened, my mouth is still ajar. At first I thought he would say it in front of my friends, but in front of the students here in the cafeteria? Is he trying to humiliate me!
Everyone in the cafeteria gasped, whispered even. It's as if this is some kind of a sick stupid joke. They were all staring at me. Most of the girls were giving me deadly glare. I was so embarrassed I could feel my whole face burning.
"What's the meaning of this!" Nathan as
** ZACH'S POV ** Why did I even agree for her to be my girlfriend? She's nothing close to my type. She's dull and boring, not to mention, a bookworm geek. But looks-wise, she's not that bad, she's somewhat...passable.I lay down on the bed and stared at the ceiling of the infirmary. It's been a really long day. I don't understand what that girl's up to. She really hated me yesterday, and now she's claiming that she likes me? That girl has some serious issues.I'll treat this as our little game Victoria Peige. It's been boring lately and I wanna do something fun.She's right though. I've never dated quiet girls before, not even a bookworm and a geek, they're just boring the hell out of me. How long will these acts going? How long will you last Victoria Peige? Can you handle a hot guy like me? I chuckled and brushed my hair with my hands. This is going to be interesti
* TORI'S POV * "Hey Zach I have to go now. I might be late for class. I'll go on ahead. Thanks for the ride and nice to meet you Samantha." I stepped out of Zach's car and walked towards the entrance.Was he trying to make me jealous?Well, you'll never make me jealous, Zachary. I grinned to myself.Yesterday was a hell of a day. I've been ignoring Nathan and Chloe's phone calls all night. I think I'm not yet ready. I still have no idea what to say to them, especially to Chloe. She knows me too well to see if I'm lying or not.True to what Zach's had been predicted; I'm really receiving a lot of odd looks today. And I'm not really so surprised by that, seeing the outcome of his sudden declaration yesterday at the cafeteria, this is highly expected. At least they're not doing something stupid. The glares and whispers were... tolerable.&nb
TORI'S POV *We arrive at one of the restaurants at Meatpacking district. I've never been here before considering my long residence in the Big Apple. Zach really knows to impress a girl. I give him that, considering he dated a bunch of girls, he sure knows that tricks.We headed inside and a waitress approached us, leading us to our seats. She greeted us and gave us menus and that's where I noticed something. She's talking softly to Zach, giggling every time Zach gave her our order. She kept on doing this mannerism of tucking her hair back to her ear and batting her lashes. Flirting.Zach on the other hand is busy ordering. He really knows the dishes here. I wonder if he had any idea that the waitress in flirting at him. After he completed the orders, the waitress winked at him and looked at me with a sinister face. When she's completely gone, I started to chortle."
ZACH'S POV ** I wasn't expecting anything in return after that whole Samantha and the waitress scene. But I could see it in her eyes somehow she enjoyed my company. For a certified bookworm, she sure did catch me off-guard. She kissed me on the cheek.How interesting. I touched the side of my cheek where she left me a kiss.I could still feel the warmth of her lips and I can't forget that innocent look on her face. It's amazing how a friendly gesture for other people made her react like that. I wonder what her reaction would be if it was a real one. Sooner or later she will give in to my irresistible charm. I'm actually curious when or how she'll be begging for these badass lips one way or another.I have to admit she's really interesting. She's different from the girls I usually go out with. I mean she's totally okay with her boyfriend flirting with someone else. Alt
* TORI'S POV * I can't believe so much happened in just one day. Zach showing up at my apartment, the Samantha thing, Nathan's confrontation, skipping class, the lunch date, did I miss anything?As the elevator was going up to our floors, the silence made me think about the things that transpired today. I was trying to recall something missing with the events that occurred. Then it hit me.I kissed him! I thought in utter shock and horror.I could feel my eyes widening. It was a big deal for me since I just kissed the guy I hated most. It was hard to accept that on my part. He must think I'm trying too hard to be all flirty. More importantly, how or where did I kiss him again? I was reacting like I kissed him on the lips but as I recall; I swear, I kissed him on the cheek. A friendly gesture was what I thought, but we're not exactly just friends, are we?
ZACH'S POV **It was pretty late when I got home from our little get together. I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard like that. It was one hell of a night indeed.Bro's will be Bro's. I thought to myself, opening the door to the penthouse.I stepped inside a bit tipsy. I'm usually hardcore when it comes to drinking so it wasn't a surprise that I got home safely. Those bozos never stood a chance."Boris? Boris!" I looked for Boris, my butler. I could smell the stench of alcohol in me so I wanted a remedy. A tall glass of milk usually does the trick. I headed to the kitchen and passed by the living room. "Boris? Where are you? Get me a glass of milk! I'm..." I was startled by the figure standing in front of the fireplace.Those dickheads have a lot of explaining to do. The hell did they put in my drink? I'm not that wasted. I really need that milk. Th
** ZACH's POV ** What time is it? I groaned as I slowly opened my eyes and shut it the moment sunlight touched them. Immediately, I covered my head with a pillow trying to fight the massive headache I was having. I sat on bed scratching my head trying to piece together what went down yesterday.Images flashed in my head. The time I spent with Tori, the boys, Chloe... how did I end up in bed anyway?I reached for the clock. It was already half past ten in the morning. Damn it! I missed two classes! I quickly stood up from bed. As I was heading to the door to look for Boris, I suddenly felt a massive headache."Fuck!" My cursed as I held my head with both hands."Care for a glass of milk sir?" Boris came out of nowhere with a glass of milk in his hand."Boris! Thank God! Give me that!" I finished the whole glass in one gulp. A
* TORI'S POV * I was never much of a party girl. The loud music, overcrowded clubs, awkward conversations, it just wasn't my thing. Yet, here I am looking for something to wear to Zach's party, or rather Zach's friend's party.I kept on scanning my closet for clothes and I just couldn't find anything or maybe I just didn't know what to wear. Chloe would always receive invitations to parties. Since I'm always with her, I'd also be invited but I always make up excuses not to go."I give up!" I said in frustration.I walked out of my closet and jumped on my bed landing on my back.What are you planning Zach?Does he plan on making me jealous again? I thought of the time he introduced me to Samantha. That's just stupid. He wouldn't do the same thing twice. Unless... I had the worst realization of the situation at the party. I im
