Chapter Fifteen

His Pov

Shit! I cursed my luck as I ran after Anny.What kind of bitch is this Mona of a girl? What she said could ruin my entire game and I was such a fool not to defend myself, now I've got a lot more work to do.

" Anny wait"

I held her hand and she snapped it out angrily.

" What?"

" I know you're upset but hear me out please" I said

" Go on and lie to me, Rio. Tell me what she said isn't true" Anny said, I stayed quiet thinking of the perfect lie to fit the situation. She arched her brows at me.

" I don't wanna lie to you Anny. It is true but ..."

"Great!" she cut in before I could finish and made to leave when I held her back again.

" Let me explain Anny" I said. " Please" I added reluctantly. I've never been one to use that word but here I am. This had better work out. She seemed to calm down as she stood still,crossed her arms and looked at me with that question mark face.

" Okay! You know Amy's brother deals with computers and I'm kinda his gee so when he figured out Amy and I were over,he called me over to try talk things out with sis. I swear that was it"

" So you two talked things out??" Anny asked,her brows arched again.

" No! Absolutely not! I came clean and told her I've got someone new and it's her or no one else" I said with a charming smile. I made another attempt to hold her hand and surprisingly,she didn't resist. I must be getting somewhere, I suppose!

" Anny, you've gotta see that I'm real. I can't find a gem like you and be so stupid as to lose it" I continued, more pick- up lines pouring in from my ' Playboy stock'. She rolled her eyes and removed her hand from mine.

" I've heard these lines before, I've used them countless times. Don't try to play me, Rio" Anny said. I wanted to laugh but she seemed way too serious so I didn't.

" I'd never even think of that" I said instead.

" You better not " was her reply. She began walking and I stood confused at the spot.

" Where you going?" I asked.

" Aren't you going to take me home?" she asked back.

" But...aren't you going to go back in?"

She turned to glare at me and I changed my mind about going in.

" Sorry!" I said as we walked together to the car. Dealt with Amy's issue,just gotta wait till she asks about Mona..

Her Pov

We got into the car and he drove off. There was silence at first and then not being able to help it, I blurted out the only thought on my mind.

" Why didn't you tell me that I'd have to deal with a crazy ex too?"

He sighed.

" I'm sorry I didn't tell you. I really didn't think she was going to create the scene" he explained. I said nothing.

" Babe, I'm sorry"

" She ruined the whole thing and even called me a boyfriend snatcher and you sat still and said nothing.

" I wonder why these bitches be all over you like ants over honey" I added, more to myself. He heard it though.

" They can't help it, The boy's hot" Rio said with that annoying smirk of his. I glared at him and when he noticed it, the smirk faded.

" I'm sorry Anny, just what do you want me to do now?" he asked helplessly. I smiled inwardly. This game just got a lot more fun. Pretending to be mad and making a guy plead till he gets helplessly desperate weakend s guy's solid resolve and pushes him closer to falling. Playgirl instincts! Thankfully,he was almost at my house. Can't wait to be out of here.

" You know what?Let me make it up to you. Another date?" Rio said

" We've got school" I said.

" I meant weekends. Just me and you this time, no friends "

" And how do I know some bitch won't just spring out of nowhere and tell me to stay away from you?"

" They won't. That was the last of them, I promise "

He pulled up at my house as he said this.

" So...?"

" Okay. Another date it is" I agreed

" Thanks Anny and thanks for coming out with me today. I really do appreciate " Rio said and I rolled my eyes.

" Quit sounding so formal " I said as I got down of the car. He laughed and waved it off. As I went into the building, I heard him drive off and I sighed relieved. First date with the playboy was a success and a mess at the same time...
