"Tomorrow I can't come with Bryan for the Date, we have been invited by his uncle for his niece's 7th birthday" Pheobe bitting her lips sorry.

"And that's absolutely fine! Then no more blind date!" exclaiming loudly with gladness.

"No! No!" Maggie showed up next to me, giving an end to my short happiness "I already called him and he's totally game for it, so no more backing out"

"Pheobe canceled and it's not like Amy is going to come either" I told him, determined.

"Then we'll go on with the old plan, just a double date" she said referring to the two of us.

"But-" I protested.

"No!" She puts her index finger over my lips "You are coming, I don't want to be embarrassed. He already agreed."

"What if we just rain check, how about next week?" I gave her my cutest puppy dog eyes. "Or never?"

"My answer is No and it's final" resisting my puppy dog eyes.

"I hope Mom would let me stay home or ground me perhaps." I mumbled to myself.

"What?" She leans in to hear.

"Nothing, Nothing" shaking my head.

"Hey" Amy has her grin meeting with her ears.

"What's that grin for?" Pheobe noticed.

"Nothing." she tries to cover it up.

"Which looks like totally something, spill!" Pheobe being persistent as ever.

"Yeah! Share!" Maggie and I said in unison.

"Fine! Well there's this one bird and it told me that our friend here is dating Chace in secret and all her hatred towards him is just an act." she was pointing at me, grinning like an idiot.

"Is that true?" Now Maggie and Pheobe asked in unison.

"No!" Waving my hand No. "Why would I want to date him?"

"That bird seen you and Chace at the park yesterday." She wiggles her brow, their like treating me like I'm a criminal in an interrogation.

"I went out to take Maximus for a walk and it was a coincidence that he was there, plus for you all to know he was with her sister" I explained to them.

"You two were eating ice cream." Amy added.

"No! He was eating Ice cream, I hate chocolate flavored Ice cream" I told them.

"So it wasn't a date?" Pheobe asked.

"Absolutely not!" I hatedly said "I don't lie, well maybe sometimes I do but this rumor stops here. Chace and I are never going to happen." I held one hand swearing.

"You know Cassie" Amy wraps her arms around my shoulder "If you like Chace, we'll be totally fine with that" I pushed her arms off disgustingly.

"I like Chace?" That sounded a bit loud.

"I knew you secretly liked me!" Chace's voice said from behind me, spurn around to face him.

"It was a question." I retorted.

"I'm making you confused then." he leaned in too close for my comfort and I suddenly felt butterflies in my stomach which was weird.

"No!" I pushed him away but he caught my wrist turning me to have my back against the wall, his arms imprisoning me in between. I heard Maggie, Pheobe and Amy squeal from excitement.

"It all makes sense now" his eyes staring into mine "You hate me so much for I don't notice you." he smirked, I wanted to move but it seemed my knees became instantly weak "Cassie" he spoke my name as his lips drawing near on mine stopping inch away, I swallowed in.

"G-et away" my words came out into a stutter, making him smirk even more.

"I make you nervous by being this close, am I?" He moved to my ears. "I admire you, Cassie, do you know that?" His breathe leaves tingles on my necks' skin as he spoke.

The bell rang and it gave me sudden strength to get away from Chace's. I push him away from me that he stumbled a little but the smirk never left his lips.

"Don't you even dare to do that again" but my eyes suddenly fell on Chace's lips and he seems to notice and he tugs into an evil smirk again. I don't know what to do anymore so I took my shoe off and threw it at him and run away as fast as I can, don't even wanna know if it hit him or not.

****

Everyone was looking at me and my unpaired shoe. I tried to hide my face as I walk towards our usual table at the cafeteria.

I was annoyedly eating my sandwich when an unexpected person spoke.

"Does Cinderella lost her shoe?" Megan sneering.

"Why are you here Megan?" I retorted boredly in her presence.

"I saw you and Chace having a scene on the hallway." her one hand resting on her hip.

Oh Great! Chace drama.

"Oh, that" I pursed my lips together.

"I'll make this conversation short, He's mine and you can't take him away from me." She was glaring and if she could draw out laser from her eyes I'll be in million pieces already.

"Look, Megan, if you want him so bad you can have him, I don't freaking care." I went back to my sandwich but she grabbed my shoulder and turned me to face her.

"You think you're so smart, don't you? That hating Chace is all you do when everyone already knows that you're secretly in love with him" she said, making me chuckle.

"I don't like Chace, not even in love with him and never will I and I don't give one damn to what other people think or even say. And If you are done, I would like to continue eating my sandwich" I roll my eyes at her before I went back to eating my sandwich.

"What's going on here?" Amy intentionally bumping her shoulder on Megan's.

"Oh nothing, Megan is just leaving." I said, taking a bite on my sandwich. Megan then stomps her foot as she went back to her table.

"Was she bothering you?" Maggie ask.

"No, it's nothing I can't handle." I shook my head.

"About your shoe" Maggie pointed outside to the flag pole, my eyes widen.

"My shoe!" I said shocked and heard Chace's laughter, enjoying the view outside. "JERK!" I yelled at him, his laughter grew louder.
