Richard Grayson was the man of every girl's wildest dreams and he knew it. He was gorgeous, smart, and rich but the biggest player you could ever meet. There wasn't a girl in this world that could resist his charm right? Wrong.

It was Friday and Richard and his best friend Roy were walking to the library to get their work done before class that day.

"Uh, why did Professor Cox have to make us write another essay before the weekend? He definitely doesn't want us having fun on our long waited 3 day weekend from this hell hole," Roy exclaimed dramatically.

"Yeah I know but this break will be worth all the shit we've done this semester, just be glad we get our degrees when we're done," Richard replied, trying to find the bright side in this future tedious assignment.

The boys entered the library scanning a place suitable to complete their paper.

"Let's go in the back corner, anything will distract me from this so let's make this as boring as possible…" signed Roy.

"Okay sounds g—" Richard's mouth dropped the moment they saw the tables behind a bookshelf, one table in particular in which the most beautiful girl he ever saw sit studying the material in front of her.

"You okay man?" Roy noticed the unfinished sentence and patted him on the back and faced the direction Richard's eyes were glued on.

"Ooooohhhh I see what's up" Roy smiled teasingly at his best friend and to Richard's surprise, walked up to the stunning girl.

"Hey, my name's Roy you're quite the hottie why haven't I seen you around cutie?" Roy confidently stated to the girl who looked up at the distraction.

Richard was fuming at this point, amazed how his friend could take what was his right in front of him! Even though he never talked nor seen her before the moment he saw her, he knew she would be his. He wanted to go yank Roy down by his collar and tell him to scram but he couldn't move a muscle nor comprehend what he was going to do next. He was mesmerized by her instantaneously and he knew he had to have her, no matter what.

"Uh, I just transferred here and if you don't mind I have work to do" the girl replied and immediately returned to her work.

"Oh.." Roy said, shocked at the rejection.

Life sprang into Richard's legs with the hope of charming her himself, taking him over to Roy and forcefully pushing him back and glaring at him with his ice blue eyes sending the message to Roy, loud & clear.

"Sorry about my friend, he's a little pushy sometimes" Richard apologized hoping his first impression of sincerity would win her over from the start.

"It's okay." She replied softly and Richard examined her true beauty up close. She had super long, auburn hair, soft complexion and the most amazing green eyes he had ever laid eyes on. He hadn't even realized she had looked down so quickly, returning to her studies as if not even fazed by his presence.

"So.. what's your name?" Richard asked, hoping to start a conversation with this exotic girl.

"Kori. Kori Anders" Kori replied, not even looking up.

The very mention of her name sent shivers down his spine and a fluttering sensation in his chest, he looked down to see goose bumps on his arms and realized how strange this was. He had never felt so compelled to be next to somebody, especially someone he just met. He never felt so not in control, and he wasn't sure he liked it.

"Very nice to meet you Kori my name is Richard Grayson, could I sit down? I'd like to get to know you." Richard desperately wanted to be closer to her, a gravitational pull or something, whatever it was, it was strong.

"Ha," Kori smiled which had Richard gazing at her even more longingly "I think I've heard all I need to know about you Richard Grayson."

Taken aback and worried, Richard asked, "Well, what have you heard?"

Kori sighed, "You're the biggest player on campus, you sleep with a new girl every week and you're a heart breaker. Pretty much enough to know that I don't want to be around you. Sorry but I'm here to get my degree not fall for a player who's going to treat me like a score."

And with that she packed up her stuff, got up and began walking away.

Richard watched her as she left, her hips swaying slightly and he completely checked her out. She was perfect and he was so shocked at her response and for once in his life he was so ashamed at his player reputation. Sure the guys had respect for him and he was the most popular guy at UCLA, he was irresistible so why wasn't this girl falling for his charm? He knew he could get any girl he wanted, anytime but why was this one such a challenge?

Pride hurt and her angelic face stuck in her head, Richard whispered to himself "You will be mind Kori Anders, if it is the last thing I do."

The chase is on.
