Just Best Friends??

10. Imagine this......

Cassandra's POV
I noticed William began to lean in.
He has a girlfriend Cassandra!!!!!!
His eyes stared deeply at me. I could feel a rush of adrenaline into my lips. I really wanted to kiss William.

William licked his lips, which took my eyes away from his eyes for awhile. I looked at his lips.
Damn!!!!
I stared at his wet lips. William moved further in, now, staring at my lips also. I couldn't wait again. I took the first step, and crashed his lips against mine.
William was a good kisser. I didn't want to leave him. I dug my fingers into his hair, as he drew me closer to him. His lips were soft.

Here was I, giving my best friend my first kiss. A guy that had a girlfriend. But for awhile, I didn't care. William was all I wanted. I couldn't feel the heat emanating from his body. Who cares???

Slowly, I began to drift away from the kiss. I needed air. William noticed this, and he released me from his grip.
I still stood, trying to comprehend what had happened.

William's POV
She's a really good kisser. But this is her first time!!! How did she learn??

Well, I knew because she always told me her secrets. What are best friends for????
She began to pull away. So, I released her from my grip. I watched her pull away, but she still stood, staring into my eyes. What am I seeing???? Is this the way ..... No... Cassandra had never looked at me this way. It was so.....

"William???" I turned to see Gila... She was waking up. I glanced at Cassandra, before I knelt down beside Gila.
"Hey baby..... You are back." I whispered. I helped her to sit up.
"My Dad......" She seemed tensed up. "Did he come here???" She asked me. I shook my head. She sighed happily.
"Nope." I replied her. "Why do you ask?"
Gila looked sad. "He came home drunk, and my Mom traveled. So, he pounced on me." She explained, wiping a tear.
"Wait." I stood up, furious. "You mean he beats your Mom?"
Gila tried to calm him down. "Not exactly William. Please don't do anything about it." She begged. "I love my Dad a lot." She broke down in tears.
I wrapped my arms around her. Her tears made me feel bad.

What sort of a father beats up his daughter like this???

I consoled Gila till she stopped crying. Her small head rested on my chest.

I looked at Cassandra. I could see the hurt in her eyes. Why on earth would she be hurt??? I don't understand Cassandra any longer. She kissed me some minutes ago. And now, she's looking at me sadly.

"Uhm.... William." Gila called out softly. I looked into her eyes, holding her head in my hands.
"Yes baby?"
"Can I spend the night here?" She asked.

Oh no!!!!! You can't!!!! No!!!!!!!

I stole a glance at Cassandra. She was already looking at me, so she quickly looked away.
" Uhm... Okay Gila... I'd just call my parents and tell them. I guess you'd stay in my sister's room." I answered.
She smiled and looked at Cassandra.
" Cassandra, you have a sweet best friend." She complimented.
Cassandra put on a fake smile.

I knew it was fake because I knew Cassandra asked much as myself.

Cassandra's POV

Mum... Am going to sleep over at william's. Tomorrow is Saturday, so don't worry. I'd be home early.

I put my phone in my bag quickly.
" Uhm.... William. My Mom said I should sleep over. I explained the situation on ground to her." I lied.
I saw a smile on Williams face.

Wow... He's happy am sleeping over.

I felt my cheeks warm. I tried to hide my face. He had already it.
