Playing For Keeps

8

---Arya's POV ----

I wonder how he's going to earn my trust.

He's stupid if he thinks he's going to play me like he does with other girls.

Now we were in class and the professor was going over a project. He had chosen our partners for this project which I was a bit upset about because my best friend was back and I would have loved to work with him instead.

Of course, I'd have the worst luck and get paired up with Hussain.

He seemed excited about it but I was about to go complain.

All the other girls thought I was so lucky. I guess to some girls working with the worse choice possible is what they want.

"Hey partner," he said sitting next to me.

"Son of a b*tch," I said.

"Excuse me?" He questioned.

"Nothing," I said.

"Okay, look if we want this to work your going to have to trust me," he said.

I sighed and put my head down.

"You should be happy that we are working together," he said.

"I'm not a whore or slut," I said.

"When did I say you were?" He asked.

"The girls you have had in your life, probably all thousand of them are," I said.

"Can we just focus on this?" He asked.

"Fine," I said.

----Hussain's POV ----

She's going to make me lose money! I have to get her trust.

Yes, I've had millions of girls in my life but I mean come on, have you seen me?

I ignored what she said and started to work on the project.

"By the way, your friend over there is looking at me like he's going to kill me someday," I said.

"Leave him out of it," she said.

"Why? Is he your boyfriend?" I questioned.

"He'd make a better boyfriend then you'd ever be. You couldn't be better than him in your dreams," she said.

"Oh honey, I am better than him," I winked.

"Cheap bastard," she said with disgust.

Hate me how much ever you want. You'll eventually get me my money.
