** TORI's POV **'Wow...' I can't believe that Zach is capable of doing something like this. I never thought that he feels this way about me. All this time I thought that this is just a one-way train but after this? I guess he likes me as well.What happened to his feelings for Chloe? Did it really disappear? Is he really over her? The way he is now, I can see that his feelings are genuine. And I can't help but smile each time I think about it.I don't regret inviting Chloe and Nathan to this vacation, I'm actually thrilled, but the moment Zach told me that he just planned it out for the both of us, It made me wish I didn't extend the invite. What was I thinking?The moment Zach stepped into my doorstep and up until now, I still can't shake the feeling that this is all a dream. Who would've thought he'd go out of his comfort zone to plan ahead so that he could spend at least a day with me. This Zach will just melt your heart out. Who would have though

** TORI's POV **"And then the chick at the bar literally jumped me!" River boasted tipsily."I think that's enough for tonight..." Nathan reprimanded River from drinking another glass of alcohol."Man, I miss the days when you were still part of our little group." River laughed out and making James stands."Okay, I think it's really bedtime for you kiddo." James and River walked out. River is still ranting about their past and how they're happy back then until they're out of our earshot.I realized that it's only Nathan and me alone at the bonfire. It's silent and...awkward. I'm looking away, trying to avoid his stare. I can feel his eyes just staring at me. Then I saw from my peripheral vision that he's walking towards my direction. He sat next to me and that's when he broke the ice."Planning on ignoring me the whole trip?""I'm not ignoring you, Nate." I tried to laugh but it turned out strained.

** ZACH's POV **She stood up and said something to Nathan. What are they talking about? I saw a glint of tears in her eyes. She looked at me, mustered a weak smile and then she left.That expression made this heavy feeling in my heart like it's being crushed. Did I go overboard? No, I have to remind myself that she lied, broke, manipulated and toyed me!"Show's over Samantha. Let go of me now." I shrugged Samantha's arms away from me. What the heck am I thinking? Bringing her here? If I haven't run across her through the hall, I'd be walking inside the cafeteria alone.I looked at their table and I noticed that Nathan's not there anymore. That idiot's taking advantage of the situation. I scanned the room and James disappeared.I'm a total mess. Who would have thought that there would be a time that I'd be the one being played. Never in my life have I've been hurt like this. I'm angry, furious and mad at everything! Why doe

** ZACH's POV **"Sneaky as always, huh, Hemmington." After I heard a very interesting story, I immediately went out and go hunt down Nathan.I'm at his apartment. I told Boris to use another number and pretend that Harry's in town and viola the bait is set."Anderson. I don't have time for this. I have to be somewhere." Nathan just continued to walk and ignored me. I'm still standing by the fireplace, busy examining my nails. I have to stay calm as possible. There were still a lot of questions that needed to be answered."If you're looking for Harry, he's not here. You just fell for my trap."Nathan stopped and looked at me disgracefully. "Seriously? We're not kids, dude. What do you want, Zach?""Well, I should ask you the same question, what game are you playing at?" I let that one out venomously. I guess I really can't suppress the anger I'm feeling right now. This guy is un-fuckin-believable.He just laughed sa

** ZACH's POV ** 'What's keeping him so long?'I'm at one of our hotels in California where he's staying. It took me not long enough to know his location all thanks to good old Boris.With the perks of being an Anderson, I can do whatever I want. I can ride a private plane anywhere. It saves me a lot of time and time is what I need in this situation. I have to settle this once and for all. It's time to face my father.I've been thinking a lot. How I hate myself right now. Why didn't I hear Tori's explanation before? Why did I leave Mexico all of a sudden? Why didn't I ask for any explanation? And why is it that I waited a week to seek her out?I hate myself for being such a narrow-minded person. The moment I learnt that Tori used me, it never occurred to me that I used her as well. I came clean and only thought of myself. I blamed her for everything well in fact we just did the same. We used each other.If it weren't for Na
