Is it too Late?

Twelve

Caspar

Joe and Hailey have gone back to their rooms, and i grabbed a drink at the reception.
Afterwards i headed back to the room too, it was finally the end of the tour.

I was happy that it was over because Hailey wouldn't have to be around Joe anymore, but i was also sad that we wouldn't be all travelling together anymore..

When i entered mine and Joe's room my heart sunk. Hailey was in there too. They were happily chatting away but when they heard me come through the door they stopped and both turned to face me.

'Hi Casp' Hailey said to break the silence.

'Hey' i muffled, before dropping onto my bed.

This was torture. How long would it be before i said anything? ..One second;

'Guys..' I started, instantly regretting opening my mouth.

'A-are you two a thing?' I sightly stuttered.

Hailey opened her mouth to say something.

'No' Joe answered bluntly.

To be honest i was shocked.. And Hailey looked shocked too. She quickly closed her mouth.

'Yeah- Just friends' she said, seeming downcast.

I can't help but feel she wished they were more.

Hailey

What was Joe on about? I thought he liked me.. What was that kiss about then? Do you just kiss your friends?

I got out my phone and decided to text joe, since Caspar couldn't really hear this.

'Joe, why did you kiss me then?'

I asked, waiting impatiently for a reply.

'What do you mean?'

Is he really that forgetful.

'When we were in Brighton that night, by the beach'

'Are you guys texting?' Caspar frowned.

'No' Joe said blandly.

'I like you.' Joe texted me straight afterwards.

He liked me.

Was he just pretending infront of Caspar then? Did he not want him to know?

My heart sprung out of my chest when all of a sudden Caspar snatched Joe's phone from his hand; so Joe immediately stood up to try and get it back. However, we all know he would never get it back as Caspar is almost twice the height of Joe.

'Casp what are you doing?' Joe said innocently, trying hard to reach his phone.

'Seeing what you two are really up to' he smirked and tapped onto our messages.

So much for not wanting Caspar to know.

He scrolled through the messages and i saw his face drop as he came to an end.

'So.. Are you guys together then?' Caspar asked with sorrowful eyes for the second time tonight.

Why was he acting like this?

'Well, only if Hailey wants to be..?' Joe turned around to face me, and smiled sweetly.

'No' i said.

'What?' Joe frowned, his smile disappearing quickly.

'I'm only joking, of course i do!' I grinned, throwing my arms around his small frame.

'Oh ok then, i wish you guys all the best' Caspar smiled.

'You deserve to be happy..' He mumbled afterwards whilst walking towards his bed.

But for some reason his smile didn't quite meet his eyes.
