Chapter 2
Cassia and Lacy snuck back into the dorms and headed up to their room. "Reid and Tyler are going to come by when they get back," Cassia said casually.
"You couldn't have mentioned this to me earlier," Lacy asked.
"I didn't want you to freak out. It's not a big deal, we'll just watch a movie. It's not like we are going to have an orgy."
"Well…," Lacy trailed off suggestively.
"Not even," Cassia replied shooting her a glance. A knock on the door caused her to jump, but she quickly crossed the room to answer it. "Hey Tyler, where's Reid?"
"He said he was going to get a movie from our room," Tyler explained as he stepped inside. He sat down on Lacy's bed next to her and the two of them immediately launched into a conversation.
Cassia smiled at them and sat on her bed. She gave Reid 5 minutes before she got tired of waiting. "I'm going to see if I can find Reid," she announced as she jumped off the bed. "Be back in a few."
She quickly left the room and headed down the hallway toward the stairs. She rounded the corner and found Reid talking to Sara, who was wearing nothing but a towel. "Hey guys," Cassia said as she leaned against the wall. "Everything ok, you look kind of freaked out Sara."
"Yeah, I thought someone was watching me while I was in the shower," Sara explained.
"Oh," Cassia said before shooting a look at Reid. "That sounds really creepy. I'm sure it's just jitters, being in a new school and all."
"Yeah, you're probably right," Sara said as she glanced away from Cassia.
"I'm sorry about the party, well my attitude at the party. Kyra and I don't get along and Kate and I have our issues, but I shouldn't have been such a bitch, not the best first impression," Cassia explained.
"I get being a bitch to Kyra, and I've heard some rumors about the Kate thing so I get it," Sara said with a nod.
Reid stepped around Sara and threw his arm around Cassia. "We're going to watch a movie in her room with Tyler and Lacy if you want to join us," he offered.
"That would make the fifth wheel wouldn't it," Sara asked.
"Uh," Cassia said glancing at Reid. "We're not together, technically neither are Lacy and Tyler."
"Oh, my bad," Sara said with a blush. "Thanks but I think I'm just going to crash. See you guys tomorrow."
"Catch you later then," Reid said before pulling Cassia back toward her dorm. "That was nice of you."
"Well I'm not a total bitch all the time," Cassia replied. Reid gave her a look that implied otherwise. "What? I'm not!"
"What are you doing," Lacy mumbled as she sat up in bed. She and Tyler had sat up really late watching movies. Reid and Cassia had fallen asleep on her bed around 3, but Tyler drug him back to their room when Lacy finally went to bed. Lacy watched as Cassia pulled on her converses then a military hat.
"I'm going to the shop, I need to get some work done on the rover. Go back to sleep," she ordered and she headed toward the door.
"We made it official," Lacy called.
Cassia spun around and stared at her. "You and Tyler?"
"Yeah, he asked me shortly after you and Reid fell asleep, probably why we stayed up so late."
Cassia pounced on her friend squealing. "I'm so happy for you," she cried excitedly. Lacy groaned in response so Cassia climbed back off her bed. "All right, now I'm leaving. I expect full report when I get back though."
"Oh, Tyler knows Kate is cheating on Pogue, so does Reid. They want to tell him the truth," Lacy said.
"He needs to hear it from her Lacy," Cassia said as she opened the door. "Otherwise he isn't going to believe it."
"Who needs to hear what," a voice asked as Cassia closed the door. She turned and met the angry gaze of Kate Tunney. "I'm waiting."
Sara stood beside Kate looking sheepish. Cassia smiled at Sara before meeting Kate's gaze. "I'm sorry were you listening in on my conversation? That's considered rude Kate," Cassia said sweetly.
"Who needs to hear what Cassia," Kate demanded.
"Take your pick sweetie, lots of people need to hear things."
"If I find out that you told Pogue…," Kate started to say.
"Told Pogue what exactly? What could I possibly have to say to Pogue that would make you so upset?"
"You know what I'm talking about," Kate snapped.
"The incident in the dance studio? The incident in the bathroom at Nicky's? Um, the incident at Caleb's party? Which one Kate, cause I know a hell of a lot more than you think I do."
"You tell him about any of that and I'll…," Kate threatened.
"What? Spread another rumor about how much of a slut I am? I'm the sluttiest virgin in the world," Cassia replied. "You and I both know that karma is a bigger bitch than I'll ever be and revenge is something for the sad and pathetic."
Cassia turned and began to walk away. "Tyler and Reid know though, so it's only a matter of time before Pogue finds out what a cheating whore you are anyway," she called over her shoulder.
