Operation Date The Playboy

PLAN TO MAKE HER JEALOUS

** 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 interesting.

On the other hand, maybe the reason I agreed for her to be my girlfriend is to be close with Chloe again. I missed her a lot. We haven't spoken to each other since the day she started hating me.

I'm the only guy who'll love you, Chloe. I've always been there for you yet you don't see me more than just a friend. We've been together since the beginning and just a simple incident; you're throwing everything we shared. And you don't have a single idea that I did it for your own sake. But thanks to your smarty-pants friend, I might still have a chance.

The only thing I need to do is break her friend's heart. For sure she'll go crying in Chloe's arms and Chloe will talk to me to mend things. Of course there will be conditions in return. I'll do everything to get Chloe. And I'll use you, Victoria Peige, to win my girl back.

First I have to rest for a while. That Nathan's a wimp! He hits like a girl. That's what you get when you hang around too much with a geek. Why is he worried about that girl anyway? Perhaps he likes her? I thought he likes Chloe?

Oh this is gonna be fun.

I'll have Chloe and revenge on Nathan by having his girl.

By then, I started to feel the heaviness in my eyes. I closed it and slept.

* * * * * * *

I opened my eyes and looked around scanning for a clock in the infirmary. What? Half hour past six already? Why didn't the nurse woke me up? Oh Crap!

I sat up and noticed a piece of paper on the desk beside me. I opened it and read the message.

'I came here to wake you up but I didn't bother. You look like you were having a good sleep and I didn't want to disturb you so I went home on my own. Take care. - Tori'

I crumpled the paper in frustration. Didn't I tell her to wait for me? How impatient. I'm disappointed in you, Tori.

I grabbed my phone and scrolled the contacts. Oh yeah great, I didn't get her number. She left me alone and then she didn't even bother to leave me her number? What the heck!

By that, I decided to call up someone I know who will help me. "Hello Boris? There's someone I want you to find. It's Victoria Peige. You heard me, right? Yes, P-E-I-G-E. Find out where she lives. Tell me as soon as possible! Clear? Good!" Then I hung up.

Get ready, Peige. I'll give you your first heartbreak tomorrow. It's time for a little experimentation.

* * * * * * *

I'm here at the Park Avenue where Tori's apartment resides. I thought that she's living at their hotel but my guess was wrong. I can say that it's not quite bad, for an heiress, she sure knows how to pick the right building. Boris did a good job finding her address.

I walked out of my Sedan and headed my way in. The bellman greeted me and I nod in return. I made my way to the elevator and pushed the button where Tori's apartment dwells. After a few seconds, the elevator opened and I moved towards the door. I knocked and a maid greeted me.

"How may I help you, sir?" She asked while battering her eyelashes and suppressing her giggle.

I smirked at her and answered. "Hi. I'm here to pick up Tori."

"That's odd, Sir Nathan usually picks up Miss Tori." Confusion is evident in her tone.

"Look." I leaned closer and whispered. I knew the maid might be suspicious of me so I'll try charming my way in. "I wouldn't have gone here if Tori didn't text me. She's expecting me. Besides, I wouldn't want her to get mad at you for making me wait here." I told her while maintaining eye-to-eye contacts. And then it clicked.

"Y-Yes you may come in sir. I'll just call her okay?" She said while giving me a smile. What an easy girl.

I stepped inside and scanned the area. Modern contemporary, so that's her style. Her designer sure gave a nice touch to this apartment and the furniture, well not bad.

"Who are you?" I was startled upon hearing that voice; I turned and looked for the owner of it. There, I saw a woman in a maid uniform staring at me. I thinks she's in her late thirties or early fourties. She's kinda old to be a maid I guess.

"I'm here to pick up Tori. Where is she? Call her now or we'll be late." I told her in a commanding tone.

"Excuse me young man. That's not the proper way to talk to a woman." She instructed irately.

"Who are you anyway?" I can't help but asked.

"I'm her nanny!" She answered as if it's the most obvious answer in the world.

And by that answer, I didn't control the upcoming burst of laughter. "You've got to be kidding me! A nanny? Tori's freakin' old to have a nanny!"

"If you continue this rude behavior then I might have to ask you to leave. Who are you anyway?"

I tried to calm myself down before I answered with an arrogant smirk in my face. "C'mon, you don't know me? I'm Zachary Anderson. I'm Tori's boyfriend."

"Zach? What are you doing here?" Tori swiftly went down

"I'm here to pick you up, honey." I teased.

"What is this young man talking about, Tori?" The old lady asked in both annoyance and confusion.

"Nothing Sonia. I'll explain everything later. We're late. We have to go. Bye!" She grabbed my arms and we went out in a hurried manner heading towards the elevator.

"Are you nuts! Why did you come here?"

"Victoria... I'm your boyfriend remember?" I reminded her. I made sure that I took emphasis in the word boyfriend in case she had forgotten.

There was a pause first and then she started to speak. "I'm sorry. But please don't surprise me like that. I haven't told everyone about us...yet."

"Why? Aren't you proud that you're dating Zachary Anderson? It's a once in a lifetime opportunity." I told her proudly. I gazed at her and she didn't answer. "Hey! Why did you leave me yesterday? I told you to wait for me right?" I asked in a now annoyed tone.

"I left you a note right? I told you I didn't want to wake you up and---"

"Well, I never got it. I was at school the whole night searching for you! I was worried sick!" I lied.

"I'm sorry Zach. I didn't think you'd do that for me." She apologized and eyed me like she was sorry for what happened. I immediately looked away. I felt guilty lying to her. Her eyes are making my conscience scream!

The elevator opened and we both stepped in. She pressed the ground button. Then I handed her my phone. "What's this?" She questioned.

"That's an IPhone, Tori. Ever heard of it?" I questioned sarcastically.

"I know it's an IPhone, and I have one. But why are you handling it to me?"

"Put your number there." I simply ordered.

"Why?" She asked.

"For your information Miss No-Boyfriend-Since-Birth, we should know each other's phone number to communicate. Now stop asking non-sense questions and enter your number. Give me your phone." I commanded.

She immediately took out her phone from her purse and handed it to me. "Make sure to answer my calls at all time. I don't want you hanging up on me. Understood?" I demanded and she replied with a nod. Good girl. This is really fun.

We stepped out and started to walk out the building. "So, you have a nanny, huh. How old are you again?" I teased.

I saw a tinged of pink forming in her cheeks then she looked at me. "She's more like a guardian, Zach. And I'm eighteen thank you for asking."

I chuckled at her smart comeback to my teasing and continued walking towards my cars. She tried to open the front seat but I stopped her. I smirked inwardly at this. It's time for your first heartbreak.

"You won't be sitting in the front seat. I've invited a friend of mine and she's riding with us. Hope you don't mind." I said trying to smile and to not look like I'm smirking.

"Sure no problem." She responded right away.

She opened the door at the back and I sat at the driver's seat starting to drive. "Tori this is Samantha, my friend." I introduced them. Now, for the ranting, in three... two...

"Hi. Nice to meet you." Tori extended her hands to give a handshake to Samantha. That made me stop. Really? Usually girls start asking questions and freak out but she gave her a handshake and a smile? Does she have any idea what I am planning or is she really being true to her words that she's being understanding?

I started to drive and I examined Tori with the help of my rear-view mirror. She was busy scrolling her IPad reading something. She seriously doesn't care what's happening?

"Hey Zach. Are you coming with us later? Lizzy's having a pool party, you might be in for a surprise. You game?" Samantha is leaning closer to me, playing with my hair. She sure knows how to flirt. I give her that. I looked at the rear-view to see Tori's reaction. She's not even looking at us. Is she deaf or something?

"I don't know. I have a girlfriend now. I'll ask her." I called out Tori and asked, "Hey Tori. You heard what Samantha said?"

"I'm sorry. What was that?" She questioned. So she's not listening? Or she's pretending not to listen! Damn, I can't read her!

"Never mind. Fine I'll go." I answered. Then Samantha shrieked and kissed me on the cheek.

I'm pretty sure Tori saw that one. I looked at the mirror again and saw that she's looking at me... beaming? Does she even know what this is about? Smiling is not the expression I was looking for! Is she really in love with me? She didn't care that a girl just kissed me! This is no fun at all! It's me who's getting frustrated, not the other way around.

We finally arrived at the school's parking space and Samantha's still clinging to my arms.

"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." She spoke sincerely with a smile on her face. Her smile's kinda different compared to my other exes. It's not fake or slutty or sarcastic, it's like she really meant it.

Usually when I pull stunts like this, my girlfriend would go bananas! And why'd she just smiled earlier? Is she messing with me now?

"Your girlfriend left. So, wanna do something fun before going to class?" Samantha now is touching my inner thigh. I'm not in the mood right now for this stuff. I was annoyed.

"No. Just leave Samantha." I dismissed her.

"You worried your girlfriend might find out? Don't worry. She's odd, obedient and the quiet type. Nice catch there. She won't know. Let's just do it okay?" She then starts kissing my neck and ears.

"Stop it Samantha! I said leave okay!" I shouted.

"Fine! No need to shout!" She walked out and banged my door. How annoying. Girls like her are disgusting! At least know some boundaries. What a b***h!

I was still bothered at Tori's reaction. What was that smile all about? Was it real or fake? Was she hiding the fact that she was hurt?

What kind of girl are you Victoria Peige?

Samantha's right, you are odd.
