My Savior Was Disguised as a Dork [Toby Turner FanFic]

Chapter 7- The Drunk Call [Cassie's POV]

   When Toby left, I tried to get my heart to calm down.

   I couldn't believe he wanted to hang out with me after work. I couldn't believe Toby had me number.

   Now it was 7 p.m. and i couldn't wait to get off. I had been watching the clock all day. I wanted to hang out with Toby so bad.

   I'm so fucking excited!

                                                                                             ~

   I had gotten home at 9 and now it was 10:30  at night and still no call from Toby.

   I was starting to get pissed, but not at Toby, at myself. I had gotten my hopes up, thinking that Toby might actually want to be friends.

   This is why I didn't trust men. This is why I never got close to them.

   I hated myself right now and I just wanted to go take a hot bath and go to sleep.

*1 hour later*

   I was sitting in the tub listening to The Fray, when the music got inturrupted and my phone started to ring.

   I dry my hands and grab my phone. The screen has a number I've never seen before, and normally I won't answer those, but I was feeling brave.

   "Hello?" I ask hesitantly.

   "Fish? Is that you?" Toby asked.

   I was a little relieved when Toby's voice came through and not some stranger, but the feeling was gone.

   "Toby. Why are you even calling?" i asked meanly.

   "Because I told you I would gurl" he said sloppy and in a weird voice.

   "Not at 11: 30 at night Toby! What the fuck?!?" I spat.

   "God. I was busy ok. Jeez!" he said raising his tone.\

   "Ya. Busy getting drunk!" I screamed back.

   "Whatever Cassie! I don't answer to you! You're NOT my girlfriend! You're NOT a friend!" he screamed right back.

   Wow. That hurt. I thought we were at least friends, but I guess not.

   "Apparently I'm nothing to you Toby and now I never will be!" I screamed and hung up.

   I had gotten out of the tub during our fight and now I just collapsed on my bed crying.

   I wish I would've never met Toby Turner.

                                                                                       ~

   It was a good thing I had the day off because I hadn't I would've called off anyway.

   The fight with Toby last night came flooding back into my mind and a tear formed and ran down my face.

   I realize that I had sounded like a jealous girlfriend, but it hurt when he didn't call. I thought he thought of us as friends but he made it very clear last night that he didn't think of me as anything.

   I had let my wall down for him, got my hopes up for a second, only to have it blow up in my face.

   When I had finally checked my phone to see what time it was, 1 p.m., I noticed that I had 10 missed calls just in the past hour. All from Toby.

   I didn't want to talk to him. I didn't want to talk to any man ever again (except my step-dad of couse).

   I put my phone in my pocket, got out of bed, and slumped into the kitchen.

   I didn't really feel like eating, but I knew I should to keep my energy up.

   When i had finally decided on Lucky Charms, I sat down in front of the TV and put on SpongeBob. A show that I've like since i was a little girl and still liked even though I was 22 years old.

   My phone started ringing and before I even registered to look at the name, I answered it.

  "Hello?" I asked, mouth full of food.

  "Cassie" Toby said on the other line.

  "What Toby?" I asked harshly.

   "We need to talk. Can you come over to my house please?" he asked softly.

   "Toby I-"

   "Cassie, I just want to talk" he said cutting me off.

   "Fine. I'll be there in an hour" I said quickly then hung up.

   I can't believe I'm giving this man a second chance and going over there.

   I had down more things for the man I just met then my own step-father.

   As I step into the shower I was wondering what the fuck I just got myself into.
