WONDERING

By: Elda Estefania Flores Cabañas

So... I decided to re-write this story since it was so outdated. The plot is the same. It IS a C/C story so don't worry. Just wanna make it a little bit more interesting. And you'll have to forgive me if I miss the tiny details at the begining but I haven't seen the episode of the party... in my country, Greek is WAAYY behind. So, I hope you enjoy it! R&R

Chapter 1

He would like to say this was like any other party, like any other night at the KT house… but it wasn't. On a regular night, on a regular party, he wouldn't have the girl of his dreams pouring out her heart to him. On a regular night, it would be the other way around. But it wasn't. It was the end of the world party and Casey just told him that is the world was to end… she wanted to be with him. Not Evan, not Max… him. After that, it was like the night happened in some sort of fast-forward way. He remembered everything that happened while sitting on the roof, thinking about the events that happened that night. Did she mean it? Did she really want to be with him? Did he want to be with her? When he realized he did wanted to be with her, he got up as fast as possible, almost made it inside the house when he heard a low ringing coming from his pockets. His cell phone was ringing. He didn't even know why he had a cell phone… it didn't fit his life. Placing his cup on the window rail, he fished for his phone. "This is weird" He said to himself seeing that it was his mom. "Hey, Mom, listen, I can't talk right now. I'll call you back, ok? Love you" He said, almost hanging up before he listened his mom give out a sob. Cappie automatically knew something was wrong. "Mom… are you ok?" He questioned, a little bit worried. "Mom, what's wrong?" He asked, a little concerned and afraid of what her answer might be.

"It's Mike" She said in almost a whisper.

"Mike? What about Mike?" He said.

"He… he… he had an accident and…" She said, taking a deep breath but not continuing to speak. Actually she didn't need to. Cappie knew what she was about to say. He felt like the time stopped. He actually felt the lack of air in his lungs… something he haven't felt in a long time. He sat down as he dropped his phone. He felt a horrible pain in his chest due to his air lacking and it took a moment before he could even see straight and before everything around him stopped spinning. He blinked several times before walking inside and heading straight to his room, bumping into several brothers. He opened the door and was relief when nobody was there. NOBODY should be there… that was the King's chamber. He walked to his closet and grabbed a bag and started throwing a bunch of clothes, opening drawers and making an even bigger mess in his room before zipping his bag.

"What are you doing?" Rusty asked standing at the door. "Cap, what's wrong?" He had never seen him this disturbed and he looked a little lost. "Cap, are you okay?" He asked again after he didn't answer.

"I have to go" He said before grabbing his keys and heading out the door.

"What? Wait" She said, following him. "What about the party?"

"I don't give a damn about the party" He snapped at him, turning to face him. He looked shocked. His face soften after looking at the scared little boy who called him 'Big Brother' whose eyes were huge & quirky. "Listen, tell everyone I had to go" He said before turning around and walking out the crowded house.

"You're just gonna leave? What happened? You can't just leave like that" He said, running behind him and grabbing his arm before he hopped on his jeep. He threw his bag to the back part of his jeep and sighed.

"Listen, I have to go" He said, entering his car and starting the engine.

"But why? What's so terrible that you have to leave right away?" He asked concerned. Cappie smiled realizing how much he cared about him. "What about…?"

"Bye, Russ" Was the only thing he said before driving off.
