Scarred for Life
Cassie opened the door to Sam's house. It looked deserted. 'Sam's car was parked on the street.' She thought. 'Maybe she took her bike out'.
"Sam?" Cassie said, putting her bags down in the dining room on her way to the kitchen. As she walked into the kitchen, Cassie noted that there were boxes everywhere. Some on the island, a few on the table, and many scattered around the living room. She walked over to the cabinets and retrieved a glass. She filled it with water, drank it all and placed the empty glass in the sink. She peeked in a few of the open boxes, which contained mostly books.
Cassie went back to the dining room and grabbed her bags. She headed towards her room. "Sam?" She yelled. There was noise in the direction of Sam's bedroom. Cassie froze. 'Oh crap' she thought as she darted to her bedroom and slammed to door.
Cassie walked over to her stereo and turned it up. She flopped face down on her bed and pulled a pillow over her head. A few minutes later, she heard a knock at her door.
"Cass?" She could hear Sam outside her door. "Cass, can I come in?"
Cassie took the pillow away from her ears and rolled over onto her back. "Yeah"
Her door opened slowly and Sam stepped in wearing sweats and a t-shirt.
"Uh, hi" Cassie said, uncomfortably.
Sam smiled nervously. "Hey"
Cassie went over to her stereo and shut it off. "Sorry, I didn't disturb…I mean…I wanted you to know I was home. Y'Know."
Sam looked down at her feet. "Cass…"
"You know I'm traumatized now."
Sam's face flushed, "Sorry"
Cassie smiled. "My bad, I didn't call before I came home."
Sam shook her head. "No, I'm sorry. You couldn't have known." Sam smiled, "I came to see if you were ok."
"I'm fine." Cassie grinned, "How's Jack?"
Sam grabbed Cassie's pillow. She smiled and slugged Cassie in the arm with it.
There was a knock at the door.
Cassie pushed Sam with her pillow. "Yeah?"
"Everything ok?" A voice asked from the hall.
Cassie got up and opened the door. Jack was standing on the other side, hands in his jeans pockets.
"Yeah, everything is okay. Hopefully I won't be scarred for life." Cassie said, glancing at Sam.
Jack looked confused. Cassie turned and brushed past Jack. "I am going to make myself something to eat." She said as she walked down the hallway.
Jack stepped into the room and sat down beside Sam on the bed.
"Jack"
"Yeah"
"Sometimes I forget that I share my house."
Jack smiled. "We've scarred her for life eh?"
Sam smiled and nodded.
