Cassandra's POV...

"Try this on" Melissa tells me.

   She's holding out a red dress that she thinks I should wear for my date tonight with Ink. Honestly I don't even care what I wear, I don't even want to go. Well that's kind of a lie, I am kind of excited. It's my first official date and I don't know what the hell to do or say.

"I'm not wearing that, look I don't even know where he's gonna take me, and I definitely don't want to wear that if we are going on his bike" I tell her.

"Ok fine, but we are getting your nails done and when we get home I'm doing your hair and make-up. Deal?"

"Ok fine let's go."

   Maggie greets us when we arrive at the diner. I think she's equally excited about my date, she thinks it will bring me out of my shell. If only she knew that I'm afraid to get close to people because of my past.

Emilio

   I still have nightmares about him and that warehouse, of everything that has happened. As the years have gone by I can barely remember my parents. They are like a distant memory.

Ink

   He seems rough around the edges, but also seems kind of sweet. Maybe he will be good for me. I do get butterflies in my stomach when he's around. The way he looks at me, it makes me feel special.

   It's five p.m. now, I better start getting ready Ink said he would be here at eight.

  
   I look at my phone and it reads eight p.m. Ink should be here any minute now. Maggie and Melissa are working at the diner tonight. As soon as Melissa finished my hair and make-up she headed downstairs for her shift.

8:30
   It's been half an hour and still no sign of Ink. I called twice and he didn't respond.

8:45
   I texted him asking where he was, but still no response.

9:15
   I called and texted him again, nothing yet.

9:45
   I've called about five times and left a total of five messages, but still no response. Now his phone is turned off, it doesn't ring anymore.

10:30
   He stood me up, I guess he was playing me this whole time. I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up.

11:00
   I shut off my phone and try to get some sleep. I try to forget everything and pretend like nothing has happened but it doesn't work. The feeling of loneliness overwhelms me. Moments like these make me realize how much I miss and need my parents. But now all I can think about is Ink.... While tears stream down my face.
