"Casey, I…" Cappie started to say but was cut off by another one of Casey's passion filled kisses, he gave in and continued kissing her, and after all, that is what he wanted right?
"Cappie…" Casey said when he began to kiss down her neckline. She lifted him up, with her hands on his chest, the lower half of his body still resting on hers. He put his hands down beside her, propping himself up. "I can't do this." She said.
Cappie sat up again, but went to sit on the opposite couch. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have…"
"I wanted you to, but I can't do this to Lexi and you can't either." Why did Casey have to be such a good person?
"I shouldn't have done that in the first place, I'm sorry Casey." He said, and gave her a weak smile.
"I should go now." Casey stood up and walked towards the door.
"Casey," She heard Cappie call her, "I'll see you at work tomorrow?"
"It's Sunday Cap, office is closed." She reminded him, and closed the front door behind her.
Cappie sat back down on the couch and sighed. He remembered the time that he and Casey had spent together. All the times, she had just suddenly left when he was trying to show he off to the world.
"This one goes out to the most beautiful girl in the room." Cappie said into the microphone. "No, not you Beaver."
"Casey Cartwright." He said, but saw as she walked out of the room, with whom he thought was his best friend.
'Maybe if she had just stayed, it would be her I was engaged to right now.' Cappie thought, 'No, dude, you are with a woman who loves you, Casey doesn't, she had made that clear since college, so forget about her.' He wasn't in the mood for more Casey thinking, so he went towards the kitchen to grab and ice cold beer out of the refrigerator. It was his favorite pastime drink.
OOOOOOO
"Rusty," Jen said turning over to face him on the couch. "Are you ever going to tell your sister about us?"
"She already knows about us." Rusty responded, giving her a kiss on the lips.
"Rusty, she doesn't know about our engagement." Jen said, sitting up on the couch next to Rusty.
"I want to tell the entire family together, including my parents."
"When are you doing to do it then, you asked me to marry you two months ago?"
"I'll call my parents to fix a family dinner, tomorrow," He said, picking up the phone.
OOOOOOO
"Ashleigh," Casey said knocking on her bedroom door, "I'm sorry, what I said was totally out of line."
"Yeah it was." Ashleigh said opening the door.
"I'm sorry." Casey said.
"I forgive you; now tell me what happened at Cappies."
"How did you know I went to Cappies?"
"I am your best friend, I know you well." She said, following Casey and sitting down on the bed.
"He kissed me and I kissed back, and we kinda made out a little bit." Casey said scrunching her nose.
"Oh my god." Ashleigh said, waiting for more.
"Then we just stopped and I left, I told him that he couldn't do that when he was still engaged."
"Good for you Case, play hard to get."
OOOOOOO
"Hey Lexi," Cappie picked up his cell phone.
"Hey babe," She said in a sexy voice, "I couldn't concentrate on my paper without hearing your voice."
"You have a paper to write, I thought you had to study for intern exams." Cappie was confused.
"Oh, well…" Lexi sounded like she was covering something up. She giggled, "I have to go, bye."
"I…" Cappie tried to say, but he heard the dial tone.
OOOOOOO
"Ashleigh, I am not going to be afraid anymore, tell me what I need to do to get him back."
"Okay, well, don't be mad but Heath, Calvin and I already came up with a plan." Ashleigh said, waiting for Casey to yell, but she didn't, she waited for her to continue. "On Monday, you are going to wear and Janet, Marci, Leslie type suit but sexier and you are going to play hard to get, and Heath is going to be your person to make him jealous."
"Wow, you really thought this through didn't you?" Ashleigh smiled at her.
MONDAY AT CASPIE
"Hey Cap." Casey said in her sexiest voice, "Ashleigh and I just launched the spring line catalogue and we launched the magazine ads."
"Cappie are you okay." Casey said inching closer to him, he swallowed hard and opened his mouth.
"You look…look…different." He finally said.
"Thank you, I think," Casey said, "Okay, so we already have four hundred responses to the advice column and its only been four hours."
Cappie didn't say anything.
"So you might want to check your email."
"Yeah." Cappie said again, and he watched Casey turn on her heal and walk out the glass box, much to his surprise, he saw her run into a man and kiss him passionately.
He looked away and decided to look at his email. Wow, Casey wasn't kidding about the responses.
He opened the first one and read:
Dear Cappie,
I am going to marry a wonderful man in a few months and I have a big problem. I think he might still have feelings for his ex-girlfriend. They talk all the time, and he says they are just friends. Whenever I see them together, I can see it in her eyes that she still loves him. What should I do?
Love Struck in Chicago
He interpreted it and began his response.
Dear Love Struck,
I know it may be hard to see you fiancé and his ex together, but you have to think about how they feel. If you are that concerned about it you should confront them.
He stopped writing and thought about asking Casey for lunch again.
"Hey Cappie, I want to ask you something." Casey walked in on time. "Can I take the rest of the day off? Heath wants to take me out."
"You can make that decision on your own." Cappie said,
"Okay bye." Casey said walking out, more lie trotting though, happily.
"Cappie, why the long face?" Ashleigh walked into his glass box.
"Ash, I love her, so much, but she can't stand that I still have a relationship with Casey." Cappie said.
"If Alexandra can't accept who you are best friends with then she isn't good enough for you."
"You don't have any idea what situation I am in Ash." Cappie said.
"Actually, I know more than you think. You should just follow your heart Cappie."
"Like you follow yours,"
"Don't bring that up." Ashleigh said.
"Ashleigh, you can't help who you fall in love with, but you need to get over him. He will never love you, and you know that."
"Cappie, Ashleigh, who are you guys talking about?" The both turned around to seen Calvin standing in the doorway.
A/N: Uh-Oh, Calvin is about to find out Ash's feeling, or is he? I love doing that. Sorry.
I am going to put a contest up, give me a conversation for Ashleigh and Calvin. Not too long, if I find the right one I will use it. Or part of it. Looking forward to reading your convo's. Five more reviews, and ideas.
