Beach House Roomates

5. What Did You Here

*Hope's P.O.V*
"Woah there girly, slo down before you choke" Cassie chuckles towards me and I look up at her.

My face stuffed with bacon and lasagna. She made some other stuff to but these too are my main interest. I mean WHO DOESN'T LIKE LASAGNA!
I look over at Nathaniel. He has his head stuck in his phone and drinking orange juice...haven't even touched his plate. "And you Mister...eat something before you go hungry" She says to him and takes a quick glance at her before looking right back at his phone and picking up a peice of bacon and eating it.

"Thankyou for making this food Cassie...although I could have just ordered something. This bacon is good also, your best friend...not so much. She kicked me for nothing!"

He tries to whine his way into my best friend and I just glare at him...he quickly smirks at me and puts back on a hurt look.
She chuckles again and stops from eating. "Get used to it...I only have 5 more days left here and I want to spend it without having to worry about her and her hatreds towards you"

At least she knows how I feel against him. He opens his mouth in shock before glaring at me. "You're impossible"

I just shrug and smirk."Tell me something I don't know"

He roles his eyes getting up and taking another peice of bacon. Walking upstairs, his phone starts to ring. The last few words I hear from him are..."Hello" and "Yea, I wanted to talk to you about...it"

That reminds me! I never called mom when the plane landed!

I quickly get up from the island heading towards the livingroom. Pulling my phone out my pocket I unlock it ith my finger print and go to contacts. Seeing the caller id 'mommy' I call her.

With just less than five rings she picks up. "Hey baby! Oh I missed you so so much!"
I chuckle at her exciment and open my mouth to speak but she interrupts me from the other line. "Oh and how is Cassie, her dad called me and told me what happen. Poor girl, how is my second daughter." My mo says in worry.

"She has been holding up pretty well. She is coming back home at the end of this week though" I pause for a slight second. "Says she wants to plan the dogs funeral...it's crazy she loved that dog more than anything else in the world. She says she should've been there. Mommy, I love her so much I-I'm worried about h-her" I stutter out the last part trying to hold in my sob as I bite my lip "S-she is acting as if nothing happened. She did this before mom. She is trying to stay strong f-for m-m"

"You" My mom says softly beating me to it. I nod but remember that she isn't here with me and I breath out and in and say "Yea, for me"

"Aww baby, your her bestfriend...she needs you at times like this even though she isnt showing it. She needs you just as much as you need her. Just give her some time. Tell her I said hey will you and - Oh sweet heart Im just talking to your sister...Yea sure thing...Hope your brother says hey and so does your father"

I smile remembering them. "Tell them I said hey"

"I will sweety, but I have to go. Bye love you."

"Love you too mom." And with that she cuts the call. I small smile forms on my lips. I miss them so much.
"Cass my mom says hey! I yell into the kitchen heading upstairs. I hear her say something but didnt really pay attention. I make my way to my room but stop at the door when I here his voice speaking to someone.

I walk over by his door. I know I kno it is wrong to sneak into someone elses business but I have to. I just do.

"YEA WELL HOW ABOUT THIS BROTHER! Do something. And so it quick!"

Its a slight pause in which Im guessing the person on the other line is speaking.
"I DONT CARE IF YOUR OLDER, I AM AN ADULT AND I WANTED TO STAY HERE AND YOU KNO WHY!...Im not sharing the only memories I have of her with you for nothing...and neither is this beachhouse." He says a bit more calmer.
"I DONT CARE IF SHE WAS SOMETHING TO YOU TOO. TO ME" He breaths in calming himself. " To me she was everything. The only girl I could have EVER cared about. And you got the nerve to rent out her favorite place...all those memories...you gave off shame...and that is all." He pauses for a minute or too and that gives me a thought that the call has ended but I know for sur eit has ended hen he says "Find another." THrough gritted teeth. I here glass and him slam something on something.
That's your signal to leave girl! Run Hope, GO!
The person in my head tells me and I quickly run to my door but luck just hates me so much.
I hear his door open and he walks to me quickly as I am frozen and grabs my arm "What did you...hear"
He says with gritted teeth. My arm in his hold a bit tight.
"Let go of me" I try snatching away but doesn't work because he is wayyyyy stronger than me. "Tell me."

"Nothing now let go" I spit back at him and he loosens the tightness realizing why I was so eager to get out of his grip. Stupid strong people!

"Lie...and as you said before It's not good to eavesdrop."
I give him a flat look and he smirks. Bum. "What did you here? Hope?"

"Things..now get off of me before I slap you"
He leans in closer. His breath fanning my ear. "You wouldn't-" POWWWWWWW.
"Dare? Well guess what, dare completed." With that his hold on me loosens and his hand goes to his Im sure to be steaming hot cheaks. I turn the door knob stepping in but before closing the door I turn to look at him. "And it's good to kno you care for at least one girl" With that I close the door.
