Nine ~ Cassie

It was the beginning of April, which meant new beginnings, right? Totally fucking wrong. It had been a week since Rosa stayed at my house, and shes showed little to no affection towards me. We haven't even spoken a bloody word to each other. Each time, I walk up to talk to her, she walks away. She avoids my Facebook messages and all my calls, and I'm left wondering where the fuck, I fucked up again.

I was sat in English class, and the beautiful brunette was not present in class. Which made me absolutely fucking miserable. I wish she would just speak to me, instead of being immature about the situation. Then again, maybe I really did fuck things up last year, and now that shes heard the truth, she can move on.

Fucking hell.

Thinking about this all in class was doing me no favors.

Maybe shes moved schools, or even moved towns, or perhaps even moved to where ever her online girlfriend is. Fuck, that tears me apart. The thought of her talking to another girl online kills me, the fact that this girl is probably making her happier than I ever have. Fuck, she's probably fucking perfect for Rosa and I'm sitting here feeling sorry for myself for not being decent enough.

I need her.

And not need, as in want.

I mean need, as in I really need her to be with me. I'm a mess without her. I never realised that until this past fucked up week. God, I wish she'd just talk to me, or at least assure me that everything is okay between us so I can go back to living normally again, knowing I have her back.

"Cassie" A voice cut through my thoughts making me jump slightly. I looked up from the paper sitting in front of me to the teacher who was standing in front of me. "Are you doing your work? Or daydreaming... again?" 

I smirked, looking up into the teachers eyes.

Miss Tayson. The most gorgeous secondary school teacher you'd ever see. She was so pretty it was intimidating. She had the voice of an angel, but stern enough to get us to listen. She had a soft spot for Rosa, and sometimes me. Usually we'd be talking about fitness or healthy eating or something. Whereas her and Rosa, they were like a match made in heaven. Is it bad that I shipped those two more than I shipped Rosa with myself? They'd joke with each other, and smile to another when they'd be speaking to one another. But then some days, their personality's would clash and it would be like world war 3.

"I was thinking about the work, uh, reading over the paper." I mumbled out. Miss Tayson looked down at my paper work, raised an eyebrow then looked back to me.

"Might be easier if you had the paper up the right way." She spoke as I watched her hand flick the paper over to reveal a page full of words. Oh. "You have ten minutes left."

She walked away, leaving Chad who was grinning opposite me. He loved when I got in trouble, because he was such a suck up. Him and Miss Tayson were also a match made. He flirted so hard with her, it was almost like he tried way too hard. 

When English had finally ended, it was lunch time. I slowly made my way to the common room, and found my regular seating place, over next to Jade. I pulled out the ham roll my mother had made me, then began munching on it as I watched Rosa's friends interact with each other. 

Is she not even at school? Where the fuck is she?

Her not being here was literally making me more miserable than ever. I pulled my phone out and sent her yet another text. Doubting she will respond to that one either. Jade grabbed my phone before I could even click send. "Fuck, give it back!" I fought.

"Why're you texting Rosa?" Jade chuckled, holding my phone up in lion king mode away from me. "What the fuck?" I tried grabbing the phone from her as she scrolled up through many messages I had sent, with no response.
