Was it meant to be?

Chapter 10: The party

I was sitting down at this girl's house drinking beer from a red solo cup. I was invited to her birthday party, and I didn't say no because I need to get to know more people. So here I was sitting alone on a couch waiting for someone to come up to me and yet no one has. I was thinking about leaving when the doorbell rang and in come Stiles and Scott. So, I decided to stay a bit longer.

Stiles was greeting the birthday girl when she kisses him. I look away laughing and I took a sip of the beer. When I look back over, I make eye contact with Scott. So, I decided to wave to him inviting him over. He gladly accepts and walks over to me sitting next to me on the couch.

"Hey, Cassie. What are you doing here?" Scott asked.

"I was invited by the birthday girl."

"Heather? She invited you?"

"Yeah, I know. I have no idea why. She found me in the middle of the hallway yesterday and invited me so here I am. I thought I could come to meet some new people and yet you're the first person I've talked to while being here. So, go me."

"Well, I'm here now to keep you company, if you want it."

"Of course, I do Scotty, but first we gotta get a drink in your hand," I said, getting up and flattening my skirt. and adjusting my Star Wars shirt that was tucked into my skirt.

"That sounds so nice right now," Scott says getting up.

We walked over to the kitchen, Scott grabbed a red solo cup from the counter and went to the keg to fill his drink.

"So, I've heard that you were in this town called Mystic Falls for the past year. How was it?" He asked making conversation.

"It was good. I made a lot of good friends there. I know I'm going to go to college there as well. So then I can be with my friends." I said, refilling my cup because I had drank all the beer in it.

"That's amazing. What college are you going to be going to?"

"It Whittmore. It's this university the next town over from Mystic Falls. But Is till have a long way to go until I can get there."
We walked to the backyard and saw a porch swing in the back of the yard. We decided to walk towards it and sit down.

"So, if you don't mind me asking. Why did you even go to Mystica falls to begin with?" Scott asked.

"Just some issues with the family I guess." I look over at him and he was looking at me like I was the only damn thing in the entire world. My heart melted looking into his dark brown eyes. I couldn't help but open up.

"During the beginning of my freshman year I was getting bullied and it effected me alot. I began not eating because they would make fun of my weight. Next thing you know, it's march and I'm still starving myself as much as possible. I've lost almost 25 pounds within a couple of months. I was only 110 at that point which wasn't good for me. I passed out one day at school. I finally got evaluated and was diagnosed with anorexia. Yet my family doesn't exactly handle emotional situations well. So they sent me to go and live with a family friend for the summer and it kinda carried into the school year."

I didn't realize I was crying until I felt a hand wip away the tear that was slowly falling down my face.

"I'm so sorry that ever even happened to you. You didn't deserve that. " Scott says, turning to face me. I did the same. Are face were mear inches apart from each other. "I think you deserve the world."

"Why would I deserve that." I ask. His hand still on my face.

"Because I think you're an amazing person. I wouldn't want anything to happen to you." he says. I sit there thinking about what the hell he's talking about when his eyes flash pink again. I turn my head like a confused puppy would. "What? What's wring?"

"Nothing sorry I-" I was cut off my Scotts phone ringing. He looks at the message. "I'm so sorry. I have to go."

"Don't worry about it Scott. I'll see you tomorow." I say, He gives me quick side hug and leaves the backyard, leaving me alone with my damn thoughts. Not long after my phone starts ringing as well. I look to my phone to see that Jermey is calling me. I quickly answer the phone.

"Hey Jeremy." I say.

"Hey Cassie May. How's everything going on in Beacon Hills."

"It's going really weird actually. So many things have happened that make me think Beacon Hills is invested with supernatural beings."

"What do you mean. What's happened?"

"Well firstly theres this boy. I bumped into him in the hallway the other day and when I did it was like this connection happened between the two of us. And than his eyes flashed this pink fluorescent color."

"His eyes?"

"Yes his eyes. I don't know what it is. If you have extra time do you think you can look into it?" I ask

"Yeah of course, I don't mean to pry. But, how do you feel about this boy?"

"I don't know. I know I feel something though. It's like with him I can be myself, like I don't have to have a guard up like I usually do. I have this feeling in my stomach that I can't describe."

"Butterflies? Do you get butterflies?" Jermey asked.

"Wel yes,but it's not that. It's something else." I say. I was about to say something else when I hear Elena in the background.

"Shit, I gotta go Elena needs me. I love you bubbles."

"I love you too bubba." Laughing a little at are names for each other.

I sigh and look around the backyard realizing I'm still at this random girls house. I finally decide to leave this place. I get outside and see Stiles leaving as well. "Bye Stiles." I yell waving at him.

"Bye Cass, see you tomorrow!" Stiles yells back.

We finally get to are respected cars and I leave to go home.

After driving I finally reach my house and get inside reaching for the elevator button. I get inside when a man with a cane stops the elevator door from opening and steps inside.

"Would you be a dear and press floor 3 for me." the man says

"Of course." I press both 3 and 4.

"Thank you very much."

"Of course sir."

The elevator finally stops and the man steps outside. He looks back to me, "It was lovely to meet you Cassie." he says and the elevator door closes.

I lean against the wall. How the fuck did this man know who I am. I think to myself. Yet I don't have time to ponder on it anymore because the elevator finally brings me to my floor. I walk inside my apartment to see both Allison and my dad arn't there. Of course.

I get into my room and close the door. Opening a trunk under my bed full of blood bags. Thankfully the trunk had installed coolers into it, or the blook would've been disquesting by now.

I get my homework out and start doing it, sipping on the blood bag. I do this until I compleley fall asleep. Thinking about what they day is going to bring tomorrow.
