The Love Game
Previously:
"I heard you're a player so let's play a game. Lets sweet talk. Lets play fight. Lets talk 24/7. Lets tell each other good morning and good night. Lets take walks together. Let's give each other nicknames. Lets go on dates. Lets talk on the phone all night long. Lets hold each other. Lets kiss and hug. And whoever falls in love first? Loses."
It seemed a simple game and Toby guaranteed he could be the winner by the end off the week. Winning Spencer Hastings, wouldn't that be an achievement. He grinned and without thinking twice he agreed.
The bet was on.
Chapter 2
Spencer's phone beeped as an awakening alarm that morning. She groaned, still left with a headache from last nights party.
'Goodmorning Beautiful xoxo- Toby'
Oh fuck. The bet. she forgot all about it. Her headache suddenly thumped some more. She was hypothetically dating Toby Cavanaugh. This was perhaps the only day in her entire life she had wanted to turn down school. That however was not a possibility, Hastings didn't run from their problems, they won them and that is what she had to do. How would she do it? Make Toby Cavanaugh fall in love with her. How hard could it be? Surely not as hard as AP french. No, she could do this, easily.
'Goodmorning baby, can't wait to see you x- Spencer'
She typed the message as she left for school. This was the start, the start of what was going to be a very long game.
"Spencer, Spencer"
Behind her was the sound of her name been shouted getting closer and closer. As she turned around, she saw her friends: Feet thudding against the uneven pavement desperately trying to catch up.
"Oh hi guys" She said stopping until they reached her.
Alison was smiling from ear to ear. Finally she had a chance for revenge on Toby and if Spencer followed her instructions, she was pretty sure this was going to work. Spencer had to win this, it was in her DNA after all and the best thing was that Toby Cavanaugh was totally going down. Her smile grew some more as she thought of the embarrassment he had to come: Two timing Toby getting his heart broken for once.
She began to bombard Spencer with her boy tips. Be confident. Dress sexy. Open up to him. Make him laugh. Blah Blah Blah. Spencer groaned. At least she had a reason to escape when they reached school- she needed to spend time with her 'boyfriend'.
As she wandered off to find him, Alison reassured her confidence "You've so got this"
Encouragement was nice and she was happy to hear her friends were betting on her but to be honest it was only making her more nervous. Pressure was something she was use to, something she lived with daily but with all this pressure of winning on top of her school work pressure, she really wasn't sure how she was going to do it.
Luckily for her she wasn't the only one who had developed more nerves from entering the school. Toby looked over to Spencer. Why was it today she looked so much hotter? Her dark skin was glowing, underneath her simple yet pretty makeup and her sleek brown hair shone on her shoulders. Not only that but it appeared she had picked out the shortest skirt inside of her wardrobe and yeah sure she had added knee high socks covering her legs however that only teased Toby more. Right now all he wanted to go was vigorously rip off her clothes.
No, he stopped himself. This was Spencer Hastings. She wasn't hot. She was just one of Alison's little followers. He prepared himself, as she got nearer to his locker.
"Oh if it isn't my favorite girl in the world" He smiled, wrapping his arm around her neck.
She returned the smile and molded her head into his shoulder. If she wasn't aware he was a two faced maggot, the moment could of actually been really cute.
"So what you are you doing later?" She asked staring up into his deep blue eyes.
"I'm glad you asked. Were going on a date"
"Oh are we now, and you're just informing me not asking me?"
"Yup, 2:30, outside of school. Don't be late" and with that he gave her a quick kiss on the cheek before leaving to his lesson.
Barely 20 minutes with him and he had already driven her up the wall. Just commanding her on a date with him, how romantic. She could see why Ali hated him so much now. Honestly who did he think he was?
2:32pm
Toby stared at his phone clock once more. This was ridiculous. He had said don't be late, yet here he was waiting. By now he would of usually left but that really wan't an option due to this stupid bet. To make things worse, he had to act sweet when she got here. Act sweet to a girl who had left him waiting. Great.
"Oh there you are, at exactly 2:53" He said softly with a plastic smile
Spencer smiled back. Never before had she been late for anything but her choice to take a detour to the bathroom was now proving to be worth it, as she saw him struggling to keep calm.
"Sorry Tobes, you know what I'm like with time keeping"
Was that meant to be a joke? Spencer Hastings had never been late, in fact she was usually 10 minutes early! Well, if she wanted to play things that way, then so would he.
"Don't worry about it, come on, let's go"
"Where to, exactly?" She questioned, taking his hand and entwining it with hers.
Toby thought for a moment. His original plan had just been to stop at the brew, charm her for an hour, walk her home, then give her one of hell of a kiss, she wouldn't forgot. Another location had now sprung in his mind though and this one was much better.
"The Rosewood Country club" He replied, pleasing himself with her reaction as her smiled disappeared.
Alex Santiago worked there. A guy who's attention Spencer had been attempting to receive for years. Finally last week he had admitted he liked her too. Now here she was going on a date there. If he found out she was 'dating' Toby, everything would be ruined.
She tried to protest, get Toby to change his mind but he refused to without an explanation, even if he already knew the reason. Left with little choice, she had to agree.
"Can't wait"
Heyo, I have been really busy these last couple of days and slightly rushed this update, therefore I'm already aware that there is probably many grammar mistakes and that it's not the best chapter but I'll try and be better the next chapter. I would like to thank all the faves/follows/reviews, means a lot. Okay that's it. I shall try and update soon but with new years and stuff it may be a few days..
