Cassandra's POV

the awkward silence fill most of our ride home, well i was angry at first but then Bruno tried to lighten up the mood and made some jokes, and yeah what can i say? i fall for his freakin charm! but then i felt..sad. i don't know why but i just felt that there's something isn't right, but i can't quite tell what is it.
"come on Cassandra! you're still angry with what happened earlier? i thought--" Bruno said after he noticed the change in my mood. "no, i'm fine" i interrupted him.
"Pretty girl, pretty girl, pretty girl, you should be smiling
A girl like you should never look so blue!" he suddenly sang this part from Treasure, and stared at me with a beautiful way i can not describe! and i melted! damn man i can't handle this! why can't you be mine?!

i shyly laughed and covered my face with my palms. and he laughed and wrapped his arm around my shoulders, smiling. i blushed more. damn this guy is magic! "i finally know the secret to prevent your changing mood!" he chuckled. "and what is that?" i said in a daring tone. "a simple line of a song could switch your mood real quick" he said it as a fact.
"yeah really? i--"

"don't waste your time on arguing with me Lily Rose! because you know i'm right!" he smirked while squeezing my shoulder. my face got brighter and i looked like tomatoes. he laughed at my reaction and i was ready to give him a sassy come back when his phone started ringing and ruined my chance.

Bruno pulled his arm away and answered his phone. i'm not sure but i think its Jessica. what now? are they going to have phone sex while i'm here? ugh i can't stand that bitch i mean like get a fucking life! and you don't have to make out with your boyfriend every second! jeez we know that you're Bruno Mars's girlfriend but please, please! keep those things in your bedroom!

i didn't realize that i was so deep on my hating thoughts about Jessica until Bruno had to shake my shoulders. "Cassandra? done day dreaming dreamer?" he said my name with concern but he then end it with a sarcastic smirk.
i chuckled "what's up?"

"my manager just called me and he wants us to go meet him in his office immediately" he said, a bit serious.

oh!
so it's the manager..... not Jessica.....

"would Jessica be with us?........"

"no.... just the two of us.... why?"

"uhm, nothing!" i awkwardly said.

-------------------------------------

a couple of minutes later and i'm back on setting on those comfy leather chairs.
"do you know why the manager asked us to come back in here? do you think it's about the cheating rumors thing?...." i asked him after we sat on our chairs. "i honestly don't know. but i think it's about you--" he was explaining. "me?!" i interrupted him in confusion, while making one of my funny confused faces. he chuckled and continued "i don't know he mentioned something about you. i guess we're about to know"

few seconds later the manager arrived. and here it comes, the moment of truth! i'm acting like i'm a 49 years old woman who is waiting for her doctor to tell her that she's pregnant after so many years of waiting and trying.

what!.......................

i'm completely losing my mind what the hell... jeez Cassandra focus!

"it's great that you could come here fast because there's a big deal" the manager said with a smile..
"so.. what happened?" bruno asked him.
"after my research on the web articles about that thing, you know what i mean. i saw Cassandra's twitter account" he started explaining. "yeah?.." i said.
"your dream job is to be a professional model. right?! well i can help you with that!" he happily announced.

there was a moment of silence..

"you fucking kidding me right?!" i stood up and burst out. "i can't fucking believe what i'm hearing!"
"okay calm down miss!" the manager said, in a desperate try to calm me down. "you need to hear the rest"
i took a deep breath and sat down again. "i'm sorry to burst your bubble of happiness but, it's not for sure"

"why?" i asked. feeling the heartiness slowly fade away. "you see, my friend is a fashion designer, and she's looking for models right now. the problem is that she's quite intractable, and she used to love training beginner models but that was years ago. so i don't know if she could make an exception for you."

"oh" is all what i could say. "ok then. call us when anything new happens" Bruno said while getting up. "absolutely" the manager said with a smile.
there was a small frown on my face, he noticed that and placed his hand on one of my shoulders. i looked at him and he smiled "come, let's go get you some ice cream" i chuckled and we went out of the office.

---------------------------------

uh nothing can switch and cheer your mood up better than ice cream. we were sitting at one of the small tables outside the ice cream store. "oh God! this ice cream is really delicious!" i said while shoving a spoon full of ice cream into my mouth. he chuckled "i'm glad you liked it, it's my favorite!" he smiled. "ugh of course i know man! you forgot that i'm a huge fan of yours?" i sarcastically rolled my eyes. he laughed hard "yeah i sometimes forget that" he paused "but honestly you're a great person, not just to hangout with, i sometimes forget being famous and stuff when i'm with you" he said while looking straight to my eyes.
damn, damn, damn! stop!

my face blushed hard and i didn't know what to say, well can you blame me? i just heard my crush telling me that i'm awesome and cool! -well he didn't exactly say that but...- damn you mr. Mars. ugh why fate is so cruel and let you be my cousin? that's so unfair! "akh Bruno stop, i don't deserve that sweet shit you know" i said in a low shy voice. he chuckled and it suddenly felt a bit awkward until. "oh Fuck" Bruno suddenly swore.

"what!"

"the paparazzi are here!"

oh holly crab!
