Feelings, Feelings, Feelings
"W-What?! No! That would be insane!" Cassidy says as her face gets even redder and she stutters
"Oh my god, Cass! You totally do! I should've known just by the way you hugged him and cried when you seen him.. and the way you look at him! OH I SHOULD'VE KNOW!" Beth rushes her words then she gasps and says "I've gotta tell Liam to make Zayn change his mind about Vanessa"
"No! No, he likes her.. That's just how it is. That's how it's always been." Cassidy says
Beth's eyes go wide and she sinks onto the couch by her best friend
"Wait.. you liked him in high school, didn't you, babe?" She asks quietly
Cassidy pushes her lips into a line and looks down. Beth pulls her into a hug and Cassidy starts to cry..
"Sh.. it's okay.. you'll be alright, Cass.." Beth comforts her and plays with her hair..
After a few minutes, Cassidy sits up and says "I'm gonna go to the bathroom and fix my makeup.. I'm sure my mascara is a complete wreck now.."
Beth smiles a little and says "Need help?"
"No, I'll be right back.. thanks though" Cassidy hurries to the bathroom and Beth gets her phone out and texts Liam..
Beth: as soon as you're alone, Call me. It's important. xx
Liam: I will. Gimme a few minutes. xx
Almost 5 minutes pass and Cassidy comes out of the bathroom..
"Hey, I'm expecting a call from my... mom so I'm gonna step out when she rings." Beth lies
"Okay.. Tell her I said hello... I'm gonna make tea. Want a cup?" Cassidy says
"Yeah.. oh, she's calling." Beth hurries to the back door and Cassidy goes to start tea..
Beth excepts Liam's call and puts the phone to her ear..
"Hey, Love.. Everything okay?" Liam asks, worried
"Is Zayn there? or are you alone?" She asks quickly
"I just dropped Zayn off..." He says
"you've gotta change his mind about Vanessa. Just, trust me on this." She rushes out, knowing Zayn's getting ready for his date
"Cassidy likes him, doesn't she?" Liam asks
"Yes! You've gotta stop him from going out with Vanessa, Liam!" She says into he phone, a bit panicked since they're low on time
"On it.. I'm turning around and going back to his apartment now.." She hears cars in the background and his radio as he talks
"Okay.. just, don't tell him exactly why.. Just try and convince him that it's a bad idea.." She explains
"Alright, Love.. I will.. always tell Cassidy that it is so obvious that she likes Zayn" he says with a laugh
"I will, babe.. I mean.. Liam." her face goes red and she slaps her other hand to her forehead as she accidentally called him 'babe'
He giggled into the phone and said "You think I'll be mad or something 'cause you called me babe?"
"n-No.. I just.. I-" She couldn't even make a full sentence, she was so flustered..
"I call you love.. you can call me whatever you'd like." He says and she hears his car shut off then he says "I'm back at Zayn's.. I'm gonna get off of here, B"
"Okay.. text me how it goes.."
"Okay, love. I will. See you tonight."
"Come pick me up!! I don't feel like getting a cab or driving!!" She complains and he laughs and says "Alright, I'll be 'round yours at 8"
"Okay, Bye babe"
"Bye, love"
