"All right, everybody hit the showers". Owen called as soon as we got back to the station and climbed out the truck.

"Ugh, gladly". Marjan groaned as she climbed out after me.

"Why, to wash off all your lies?" I scoffed.

"Will you stop?" Judd muttered making me roll my eyes.

"And what am I supposed to do with these turnouts?" T.K questioned climbing out the truck with a red bag.

"Burn 'em". Paul answered.

"Is it weird that I'm hungry?" Mateo asked and I nodded making him pout.

"Hey, Gwyn". I smiled walking passed her with Paul and Marjan behind me as they greeted her too.

"Cass, can we please talk?" Marjan sighed following me into the shower room.

"Why, so you can lie to me again? Are you sure you don't have another kid with someone else I didn't know about?" I scoffed turning around to face her just as Paul walked towards the men's showers with an awkward look on his face.

"No. Cassie, I didn't mean to keep this from you, okay? It was supposed to have blown over already". She explained.

"You should have told me the exact same day you asked me to dance at that bar". I argued.

" I came to Austin to get away from all that". She pressed and I rolled my eyes.

"And look, it followed you here and knocked on the front door to my heart. You don't think this affects Jasmine". I yelled.

"I know it does and I understand why you're upset-" She sighed.

"Upset? No, I'm not just upset, Marwani. I'm hurt and I'm angry and slightly embarrassed too". I scoffed.

"Will you please just let me explain this to you?" She pleaded.

"Now you wanna tell me? After 2 years of keeping it from me? After I had a baby with you!" I yelled gaining the attention of Mateo, Nancy and Judd from down the hall.

"I think it's best I walk away from you before I get fined for property damage".  I scoffed walking into the shower room.



"Are you sure I got it all off? I can still smell it.  Can you sniff me?" Mateo asked as him and Paul walked into the bunk area where I was sitting and straightening my hair.

"I ain't sniffing you, probie". Paul answered with a disgusted look.

"Hey, Cass, you good?" Paul asked looking at me and I sighed.

"Mm-hmm". I answered setting the straightener down before combing my hair.

"You and Marjan are gonna have to talk eventually". Paul commented and I looked at him.

"You two are my ride or die and this tension between you both is also affecting us.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realize that my girlfriend being engaged to someone else was affecting your play dates with us". I scoffed sarcastically.

"I thought you guys broke up". Mateo commented making me glare at him.

"You know what I mean, baby Ryder. I need-- no scratch that, we all need you to talk this out so the world can feel right again". Paul stated.

"You at least owe that to Jazzie". He added making me sigh.

"I can't even be near her without wanting to smack her. How am I supposed to even talk to her?" I scoffed.
