Cassey's POV:

Lily called me as soon I reached home and started scolding me, about what I ate and how I ate. It was very immature of me.

I just laughed and waited for her to finish and my one remark scored for her whole conversation, "Babe, guy delivers extra cheese pizza with fries at my place, he knows it what I eat so pretending something I'm not would be a stupid move to impress him."

Which she agreed and thankfully dropped her argument. I shared what Caleb told me that what if he's a play boy and I'm gonna be just a score for him.

She gave me idea that I somehow bring up topic of Grace and convey him that if that's what he's looking for then I'm not the one.

Well, it wasn't difficult task but what if he took it as challenge and actually manage to break my heart after he gets what he wanted. Grace, never affected me because I wasn't really attached to him but this guy I started to like him. I just don't think he's bad boy, because not even once he tried to make a physical contact with me, we were close yet there was comfortable space between us. He listened to anything that I had to say with so much attention, I didn't get any red signals from him.

Me and Derrick had long chats, I wanted to bring that topic however it felt it was soon and stopped myself.

Derrick's POV:

Today's evening was really surprising, I couldn't believe it had happened and it so smooth. Few days back I was thinking this girl won't even glance my way and today she was with me most of her evening even though she had friends over.  I couldn't have expected it to be this smooth, I thought she was girl with aggression and attitude which I had witnessed in Store but she was chill as fuck. 

Most of girls I meet, either throw a lot of attitude or get all over me. Choosing salads, wine behaving lady like, to be honest that was really boring and Cassey,  she chose to eat cheese pasta and cheesy bacon rolls

There's nothing bad with salad, I also eat salad and boiled chicken in my diet but then you can always have your cheat day when you're going out someone.

Cassey, I whispered a her name, sleeping on bed and facing white ceiling, my mind rewinding the moments I spent with her. It's been few minutes my mind was occupied by her, she was not only beautiful but really a smooth talker. Evening was full of surprises and I am really glad that I managed to join her. The more I know her more I'm getting attracted towards like metal to a magnet.

She was carefree and unique in her own way. That's what I liked, her decisions weren't based on my actions or I might judge. I don't understand how this girl manages to eat so much cheese and unhealthy food yet stays fit. 

There's one thing about her I didn't quite understand, she's doesn't look like very shy person yet she doesn't come out very open. When I told her, "You look great today." She just smiled and said, "So do you."

She didn't blush or get awkward or tried to flirt more after such comment. It felt like she knew this was coming, her composure cool as before but I think I did notice a bit of twinkle in her eyes when I gave her a compliment.

Time spent with her flew like bird, when night ended, it felt too soon. It was times like this you wished that you had come alone. Otherwise, I could have asked her to ride with me and steal few more moments to make this night even more memorable then it already it.  

First time, I felt the girl I liked was too good for me, maybe out of my league. Hopefully, she doesn't think same.

Her energy and her dance moves, moment when she managed to get cheese on chin, Caleb had scooped in to clean her chin. I felt pang of jealousy surging through me suddenly starting to hate this unknown guy. Also, when he had taken her to dance floor, look in his eyes of  disapproval of her actions to make him wait. And when he looked at me, it screamed for me to back off.

Hell, I was going to back off. We didn't talk about having girlfriend or boyfriend but I could tell Caleb was no boyfriend of hers just a good friend. Whole evening he looked at me with predator eyes wanting to kill me.

Best thing is, I already know Oliver, he lives in my block and we have played basketball together. It's been a while though we have played, I get so busy in work but it calmed my mind that Cassey didn't go alone with Caleb, Oliver and his girlfriend was there.

I sent Cass a text

Me: Hey did you reach home?

Cass: Yeah, you?

Me: Yup.

Cass: So, What are you doing?

Me: Nothing, just on bed. You?

Cass: Same.

Me: and thinking about you. 😉

Cass: like what?

Me : You're amazing. 😀

Cass: Haha! Thanks.

I wanted to know what she thought about me but then if she didn't say anything, pressing about it might make things awkward.

Cass: See you in break tomorrow, at school?

Me: Cool. See you then.

I couldn't sleep, I wanted to chat with her all night long. I hope she didn't falls asleep like other day. First, I thought she didn't wanted to talk to me and it scared shit out me that I might have tried to get closer too soon but her text in morning made me calm down my nerves. 

Me: By the way, thanks for letting me join you. I had really great time with you.

Cass: I am glad, you came. I had good time with you too.

Me: Are you sleepy?

Cass: Not at all, I can run a marathon right now. :D

Me: Ha-ha. Maybe I can join that too?

Cass: Sure, why not?

 And we were talking to each other until Cass got to know I had to work tomorrow and even though I didn't wanted to stop talking and go to sleep I had to. Damn! She is bossy and also caring. She told me how grumpy she gets when she doesn't get enough sleep. Well, I wasn't her and I don't get grumpy. I have managed to stay up for straight 48 hours with just getting few minutes to relax. But it was weekend and was going to be long and fast day at work. I won't get free time like I get on weekdays, so getting good sleep was important. I guess, she understood it and that is why made me go to sleep. It was hard though, my mind wasn't shutting down but eventually sleep took over me.

A dream woke me up. I was scared in my dream even though there was nothing to be scared off, and my heart beat were fast.
