The drive home was silent. I was lost in my own daze, not really thinking of anything just letting the trip pass by. I saw Evan glance at me twice but I pretended not to see him.
When I got home I wondered how much trouble I would be in for leaving without telling. Evan went straight into his room after he bid me goodnight and I wondered to my dads study. I quietly opened the door and snuck in. I saw dad with his head in his hands and I could hear his soft sobs. My heart broke. I couldn’t feel the pain he felt. He was loosing the love of his life.
I had seen my mum cry before but I had never seen my dad cry before. He always kept his composer in front of Cody, Chloe and I. I walked up to him and wrapped my arms around him. He jumped when he realized I was in the room with him but turned around and wept into my shoulder as I patted him on the back.
“I can’t loose her” he mumbled
“I know.” I said truly understanding.
Half an hour later dad had stopped crying and he told me to go to bed. Sighing I walked up into my room and gasped when I saw it was 3:00 am in the morning. I crawled into bed not even bothering to change into my p-jays. I wrapped my blankets around me and floated to a world that did not exist.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BANG! “ CASSIE! WAKE UP, YOU’RE GOING TO BE LATE FOR SCHOOL!” Chloe screeched and I jumped up from bed.
“What the hell Chloe! You didn’t have to yell.” I groaned rubbing my head.
“Aww I’m sorry did I upset you?” she cooed sarcasm clear in he voice.
“Go away Chloe” I grunted
“Yes sir!” she said like I solider. I turned around to glare at her but she was already gone.
I got out of bed regretting staying up so late last night. I dragged my feet into the bathroom and got into the shower. I turned the water on and let the hot water cleanse my skin and wake me up.
After I washed myself I wrapped a towel around my body and went into my room choosing what to wear for the day. I pulled out some black leggings and a long grey top that had a flower print on the left side of my waist and traveled to my back. I finished with some black boots. I laid them out on my bed and nodded. This will do for school.
My eyes widened when I realized that my curtains were wide open and Catar was on the other side watching me. I ran to my curtains and pulled them shut just before I gave him the finger to which I saw his laugh at.
Pervert. I mean a respectful person would look away if they had caught someone in a towel, in their room. But no Catar just watches. Lucky I saw the open curtains before I actually changed; now that would be bad.
I quickly changed into my outfit and chucked my dirty clothes in the basket. I walked down stairs and saw everyone in the kitchen. I skipped breakfast and walked straight to the front door.
“Bye everyone” I called out
I didn’t wait for everyone’s reply instead I walked out the door and towards school, when I arrived at school I walked to jess locker and covered her eyes
“Guess who” I said putting on the best manly voice I could.
“James!” she squealed
“ James? Who the hells James?” I said my hands dropping to my sides.
“Ohh Cassie, I’m so sorry.”
“Jessica, who’s James?” I asked with a sly smile.
“No one”
“Hey jess” a very attractive guy yelled from across the hall while walking up to her.
I raised my eyebrow as he came a kissed her full on the lips. I stood there awkwardly and crossed my arms “am I missing something?”
“ Um Cassie, this is my boyfriend James.”
I looked at the boy up and down. He was wearing black jeans with a blue jumper. His sparkling brown eyes were glues on Jessica.
“Dayuuum, girl you did good,” I said nodding and looking back at jess.
“His mine baby girl, no touching.”
“ Wouldn’t think of it”
“Well I might as well give him the warning now. So James, you have been blessed by having my best friend as your girl friend but if you hurt her in any way I will make your life a living hell. You will have to sleep with one eye open. Got it?”
He just nodded his head once.
“Ok then, we’re good,” I stated with a smile.
The bell rang so I rushed to my locker grabbed my things before heading to my classroom. I sat down in my seat and did my work with our bringing any attention to myself. After first and second period finished I walked back to my locker got my food and walked to the cafetiria.
I spotted jess and James in a table in the back row so I headed down there with my sandwich in my hand and sat down in the seat across form them. I looked at them to see they were making googly eyes at each other and hadn’t even reilzed I was sitting here. Way to be the third wheel Cassie. Sighing I unwrapped my sandwich and began nibbling
I glanced to my left to see Catar. I felt a pang in my chest. It wasn’t because of what happen the other night with the kiss or not the fact that I know his past and he opened up to me but now he’s not talking to me. No. It wasn’t either of those things; it was the fact that he was with another girl. But he wasn’t just sitting with her; he was having an intense make out session with her.
It shouldn’t affect me this much. I shouldn’t feel like I was going to throw up, I shouldn’t feel betrayed and crushed and I most definitely should not feel jealous. But the problem was I felt all those things.
I wanted to run, run as far away from him as I could. But I refused to do that because if I did he would know I felt hurt so instead of running I forced myself to sit there. I saw him from the corner of my eye and I felt like I could crumble to the ground in a pool of my misery.
See the thing is, caring about someone is like a fire. You don’t know if its going to warm your heart up or burn down your house.
