Cassie's Tale on Life, Love and Loss

Chapter 15

Cassie's POV

Sitting there on my bed fixing my knee high socks with my ear buds blasting Taylor Swift in my ears as I stretch my split as I waited for Serena to get home. Then I sense a presence behind me so I spin around yanking the buds out to confront her about what was going on, and there I see Axel drowling in my doorway.

"You should really stop drowling like that" I said walking over to him

"Maybe if you stopped teasing me with that sweet ass of yours" he winked back in reply looking down at my boobs in this outfit. My ears fire up at his innuendo.

"Whatever, what's up jock?" I say trying to stop my cheeks from reddening again.

"Um well the guys wanted to come over tomorrow night and I told them I had to run it by you" he stuttered.

"Chase, Jaymie and Jack? Sure its cool I mean my mom's not here so I guess its whatever" I shrugged.

"Cool. By the way, where are you going dressed like that?" He said with a sly smirk.

"I don't know. Apparently your sister is taking me to a Halloween party and is forcing me to wear this" I said looking down at my Hello Kitty costume.

"Are supposed to be Hello Kitty? Because that is not the G rated kitty I remember."he said.

"That's what I said." I agreed turning around in my ridiculous outfit.

"You're such a tease." He said looking at my ass as I  shook my 'tail' making cat sounds "But you're not going to that party." he said. "The only Halloween party tonight is the one at Leo's house and I am all too familiar with how they spike the drinks there."

He cares?

"But I'll be with Serena the whole time."I said pouting

"She's not going either. Don't worry about that. Now please sweet cheeks, go put on clothes that cover that fine ass of yours." He said taking a seat on my bed.

"Umm get out." I said pointing to the door.

"Why?" he said getting up.

"I'm not changing in front of you" I told him.

"Ugh, you're no fun" he said pouting walking out the door.

I grab my hoodie, slipping it over my head and pulling on a pair of sweats.

I open the door and go to the stairs to find Axel giving Serena the same lecture he gave me about Leo's parties.

She stormed upstairs cursing him under her breathe and went in to the room.
I'm going to sleep, nothing better to do. :/

She texted me. I shook it off and went downstairs to chill with Axel.

"We're watching a scary movie" I demanded dragging him off the couch and up to his room. He protested on the way asking what I was doing but I ignored his questions anyway.

"Feisty, I like it this way" he winked as I pushed him onto the bed.

"Shut up jock, its Halloween and I wanna watch a movie" I said picking up the lap top.

We decided on The House at the End of the Street. Throughout the movie my face was mostly planted in his chest, right between his rock hard pecs. Towards the end I got so scared I kind of threw my head in to his lap.

"Wow sweetheart, that's a little bit too forward. I mean, I don't mind, I just don't have any gloves on me, you should have told me" he said smirking.

"You are such a jerk." I pointed out jabbing him in the chest.

"Did you really just call me a jerk? You shouldn't have done that" he said picking me up bridal style and throwing me in the bed. Then he started tickling me really hard. I was laughing so hard I didn't notice he was now sitting on my lap straddling me. I was ticklish everywhere

"Eww, disgusting. Keep it down and PG-13." Serena said seeing our position. I struggled trying to get up but Axel didn't move a muscle, he just sat there.

"I could do a lot of damage in this position." He winked looking down at our position and pinning my hands above my head "but I won't" he got off of me.

" I'm going to bed jerk" I said smugly walking towards the door

"Did you just call me a jerk again?" He asked making his way over to me.

"No I said jock." I protested trying to avoid another tickle attack.

"If you say so. Goodnight gorgeous." He said closing the door behind me.

I laid in bed smiling for about half an hour before falling asleep. He called me gorgeous. He cares.

A lot happened today that all led up to this moment with Axel on my mind. I was actually considering telling him that I like him.
