Something Extraordinary

Chapter 21

Rachel's jaw dropped, because first she couldn't believe Cassandra would actually invite Daria for today and secondly because Daria was beautiful.

Daria wasn't as tall as Cassandra was, had also blond hair and a great body. However, what made Rachel speechless was her age. Rachel thought she would be around Cassandra's age, but she looked like she was rather Rachel's age.

"Hi, how are you?" Daria walked over to Rachel and Rachel was about to stand up.

"No, no, no, no! Stay put." Rachel did and Daria sat next to her. They shook hands.

"I-I'm fine, thank you." Rachel didn't know whether she should glare at Cassandra or smile at Daria, but Cassandra helped her with that decision.

"Hey Daria you know where the kitchen is if you need something okay?"

"Sure." Cassandra smiled a little too nice and Rachel and Daria got the hint. "Oh, you know, I'm thirsty, anybody else?"

"No thank you."

"Nope." When Daria went to the kitchen, Cassandra walked over to Rachel.

"Do you like her?" Cassandra quickly went back to the couch and sat next to Rachel.

"I don't know her."

"I think you will."

"Maybe. Why did you invite her?"

"You wanted to meet her?"

"Not yet." They were whispering, but Rachel struggled to keep her voice down. She definitely did not want to meet Cassandras sister so unprepared.

"Would it make a difference?" Rachel was a bit upset that Cassandra invited her for today, but she also knew Cassandra was right; because it wouldn't have made a difference.

"Probably, yes."

"How?"

"I don't know, it just would." It was quiet for a moment, None of the said anything, Cassandra was just smirking at Rachel and Rachel acted a little stubborn, because both of them knew Cassandra was right.

"Do you mind if I take a quick shower?"

"What?" The question irritated Rachel and she was beginning to wonder where Daria was.

"I'd like to take a shower after I practiced."

"Okay."

"Are you sure? You two would be alone for a few minutes." Cassandra nudged Rachel to show that she was kidding.

"As long as she won't hit on me, I guess, I can manage to spend some time alone with her." Rachel could joke as well, but Cassandra didn't seem amused.

"Funny. Thank you." She gave Rachel a small kiss on the cheek and left, right before Daria returned.

"Wow, this is weird. I didn't mean to-" She was searching for the right words, Daria let herself plumb down on the couch. "I don't know." At least she was honest. "I just wanted to meet my sisters girlfriend, even though I figured you'd be a little older, but it's cool, maybe we get friends and if not that's okay I'm just glad Cassie is happy. By the way, where is she?" It took Rachel a moment to answer the questions, because Daria talked so much in just these few seconds and she was a little startled that Daria was so different from Cassandra.

"In the shower."

"She practiced?"

"Yes."

"By the way, how did that happen?" She pointed to Rachel's plastered foot. Rachel was struggling a bit to keep up with this very fast paced conversation.
