Two Worlds Collide

Chapter Six

"I can see that." I giggled. 

He sighed and began texting her back at lighting fast speed. 

"I thought you weren't a texter.......?" I asked. 

"I'm not, but......" he trailed off. 

"You are when it comes to her." I finished his sentence. 

"Basically."

I smirked. "Of course." 

He blushed and continued texting away on his phone.  

"Tessa?" a familiar voice broke through the silence. 

I snapped my head towards the door and smiled. "Will!"

"What are you doing here?" he came into the room as I stood up.

"That's an interesting story....I WAS here for the show tonight, but now I'm helping Cameron." 

He raised his eyebrow. "With...?" 

"I'm not quite sure, ex-zach-ly, but he likes my best friend, so I'm apparently helping him with that." 

He nodded. "Oh. Cool! I just came here to ask the guys a question." 

"I have a question." Cameron interrupted. 

We both looked at him.

"How do you two know each other?"

Will put his arm around my shoulder. "Me and Tessa? Ah, we go way back!"

Cameron raised an eyebrow as if to say, "Explain...?" 

"She went to one of our shows and hung out for a bit." Will explained. 

"Oh. That's interesting." Cameron replied.  

"So what was your question?" Zach stood up and glared at Will.

 I bit my lip. Wait. Was Zach....jealous? 

"Right! So." Will went on to ask them some technical question I couldn't even begin to explain or comprehend. 

I took that as my opportunity to slowly work myself out of Will's hold without being noticed. 

I loved Will, I did. But as a friend. I'm not sure if he gets that yet though.....

They finished discussing whatever it was that Will had came here for in the first place. 

"Anyway, I'll see ya later, Babycakes!" Will hugged me.

"Uh. Yup!" I said and hugged him back. 

I stood there awkwardly and avoided Zach's intense staring. 

Well. This isn't what I expected to happen. 

Cameron coughed and spoke up just then. "It would appear he likes you." 

I glared at Cameron. "I guess."
