"my dad texted that he might be coming in late tonight"

I bit on my sandwich

Cassandra hummed as she chewed on her burger. Freeda helped with some food and drinks when Cass rang the intercom button a million times due to her 'severe hunger'. She was going to have to learn to deal with that cos we were going to be seeing much more of Cass around no doubt.

Dad's room was locked, probably knew we'd been snooping or someone had been at least. Bonus star to him for being extra observant cos I knew I was even more careful than a ninja. I thought about the recent dreams I had been having and how discrete they had been, I was getting messages from my mother but it probably means nothing though because this is so not a fantasy story, welcome to real life where you have dreams that have nothing to do with reality

"Kyle's texting again" Cassandra whistled shaking me out of my thoughts

She had my phone in her hand now barely balancing it on four of her fingers gently tapping the back. I shut my eyes tightly to push back the migraine that was coming as I rubbed the back of my neck

"Ams he's asking is you wanna hang out, who-hoo cheeky" she winked as she clicked the message

"Hang out? We have tests next week, just say I'll be studying and I'm a lil busy" I slouched on my couch using my fingers to trace the edge of my glass cup; bad habits mum would say, I never believed I'd miss those words

It took some seconds for me to realize Cass had her mouth hanging in the air in shock at my comment

"Why would you say that?!" She sat taller on the bed

"Because it's true" I said giving her this 'duh' look

She shook her head and started texting, obviously not what I said as she smiled deviously to her devious self. I was so gonna get back at that little rodent. She clicked the send button and started reading out almost immediately

"Of course Kyle, after school tomorrow would be just great"

"What?!!!" I yelped spitting half my mouth's content on the floor towards Cass

"Eww Amy, disgusting" she moved her leg away from the mess

Ignoring her, I climbed the bed and snatched my phone from her hand before the rascal could do anything worse. I was about to delete the message when I saw his reply.

"Awesome, after school sounds cool, my parents would be out, my own curfew" he put the cat smirk emoji feeling mischievous. Okay a second ago I was planning to delete the message then eat my best friend raw for selling me out but yeah I was smirking at the choice of emoji, weird

"Thank you Cass you are the best friend anyone could ask for, you just linked me up with my dream guy" Cass said dramatically as she tried to imitate my voice I know you have the question on your mind, did she sound like me? Well no she sounded more like the witch from rapunzel. I picked up the rabbit pillow beside me and hit it on her belly as I turned to lie down beside her. She chuckled lightly as she scooted over and both of us just kept our eyes stuck on the ceiling

"Wait one more thing before we both fall asleep" Cass said pointing her hand tiredly to the sky

"What's that?" I lay on my side to face her

She tapped the intercom button and screamed slightly

"We need a mop please there's a mess here" we both laughed as we went back to our initial positions

"Assignments after siesta though" I opened an eye to look at her as she turned to pretend snore
