Chapter 1

Let the Games Begin

I heard you're a player, so let's play a game:

Let's sweet-talk,

Let's play fight,

Let's talk 24/7,

Let's tell each other good morning and good night everyday!

Let's take walks together,

Let's give each other nicknames,

Let's hangout with each other's friends,

Let's go on dates,

Let's talk on the phone all night long,

Let's hold each other's hand,

Let's kiss and hug.

Whoever falls in love first?

LOSES!

It was just something she had read on tumblr but being the daring teenager that she had become, she had a plan to put it in action. The fact that she knew a player that went to her school and he knew how to piss her off made everything easier. A player that went by the name of Sting E. (last name to hard to pronounce, not that he liked it anyway.) It was all to perfect for her to resist anyway.

She smiled dangerously at her screen that she was slowly closing making sure she memorized the words that she was going to say back to Sting the minute she saw him today. She put her now closed computer into her school bag as she made her way to the front door, ready for the day ahead.

After the short walk she had to school, she made her way to her first lesson, put her bag down and sat patiently waited for Sting to arrive. She would rather do it fast and get it over with. She knew she was going to have to wait a while since Sting always came late to class, trying to keep the bad boy image he had invented for himself. So as she waited, she spent the time talking to her friends. Time went by and the class was going to start in the next 2 minutes and that's when Sting entered the classroom, Rouge right behind him as always. They were deep in conversation when she approached them, blocking Sting's path.

"You're in my way Lucy." Sting pointed out the obvious

Lucy gave a sigh; she wasn't interested in starting one of their usual fights that include tones of back talk and swearing. So she inhaled and exhaled before she gave him that smile of hers that she had never giving him, ever.

"I have a challenge for you," Lucy told him "Will you accept it?"

"That all depends on the actually challenge." Sting said, getting interested

Lucy nodded. See the only reason she was truly and only presenting this challenge to the school biggest player was because she hated what he did, she wouldn't mind him doing his thing if he had a good and proper reason. Sting did not have a proper reason at all.

*Flash-Back*

Lucy was looking for Sting so they could get started with their science project and when she had found him, she had to wait ever so patiently while he made-out with his new toy, or prey as he prefers to call them. She saved her thoughts and bites her tongue; though she was disgusted she didn't have the guts to actually stop them.

Once Sting and the girl were done with their session, Lucy walked up to Sting who smirked as she approached. She was after all his favourite person to tease.

"It's cool. We can go now." Sting pointed out the obvious, making his way to the library.

"Why?" Lucy asked, not being able to stop the words from coming out. She was afraid that he would give some sick reason that would hunt her in her sleep.

"For a straight A student, you're dense," Sting commented, noting getting the question but he stopped and faced her "We can go to the library now cause I'm done and we have the science thing we got to do."

"Not that," Lucy said rolling her eyes and looking anywhere but at him "I'm asking why you're a player? Why you can't just find a girl and stay?"

"How should I know?" Sting countered giving a shrug

"How do you not know why you change who you love so fast?" Lucy went on looking him straight on.

"Maybe cause I didn't fall in love with any of them," Sting replied meeting her stared, her wild conflicting brown eyes dug into him "Maybe I'm the type of guy who can't love."

"That's a human emotion, everyone feels it." Lucy told him.

"Then I'm not human." Sting said, turning in the direction of the library, meaning the conversation was over.

*Flash-Black*

Lucy breathed in deeply before reciting the words she had come to memorize the night before. She knew that she couldn't get him to love her but she didn't want that. She just wanted to at least try to get him smitten, make him see what's his missing from a real and true relationship, maybe then he could understand the hearts he breaks can't be fixed.

"I heard you're a player, so let's play a game," Lucy started off and finished at "Let's kiss and hug."

While she said spoke, Sting looked at her as if she was crazy to challenge him to a game he had been playing since before he could remember. There was no doubt he was accepting the challenge, it was going to be interesting and fun.

"Whoever falls in love first?" Sting asked

"Loses!" Lucy answered as she brought her hand out, she knew the ball was in her court; she had the advantage at this point.

"I accept," Sting, told her, shaking her hand before leaning close to her ear and whispering "This is going to be fun angel."

The game had begun and there was no going back from this. At Sting words, Lucy's smile dropped and Sting smirked. Lucy had entered his world now and he has been playing this game since forever, how could he lose. Lucy hadn't thought that far into the whole thing yet.

"One thing you should know," Sting told her still close to her ear "I'm not losing this."

"Either am I," Lucy said before kissing him on the check " I guess I'll see you later babe."

They moved father from each other, Lucy wanting to see Sting's expression but he had the same expression and he walked towards his sit and started talking to Rouge as if nothing had happened. Lucy sighed inwardly, she wasn't going to lose and she was going to prove him wrong.

It was already to late to back out anyway.
