Cassie was in the locker room changing into her swimsuit when her cell phone buzzed. Opening it up, she saw that she had a text from an unknown number. She opened the message and her eyes grew hard when she read it.
"I'm watching you."
Making sure there was no one else in the locker room, Cassie spoke. "You're a sick twisted pervert who needs to die Sebastian."
"Oh, that's cold babe," Sebastian replied.
Cassie spun around and saw him in the mirror.
"Boo!" he said laughing.
"You're a freak." She told him.
"Oh, that's not very nice Cassandra."
Cassie laughed, "I'm not nice to demon scum like you."
"You should be careful girl," Sebastian told her, grabbing hold of her reflections throat, "I'm more powerful than you can imagine." Cassie felt fingers tighten around her throat, even though Sebastian was only in the mirror. "I could kill you before you could draw breath to scream." He taunted.
Cassie smirked, "Maybe so, but you seem to have forgotten one very important thing."
Sebastian sneered, "And what is that?"
Cassie's smirk turned feral. "Mirrors break," she stated before punching the mirror and causing it to shatter.
John ran in. "Are you alight Cassie?" he asked, "Sanzi said you might need help."
Cassie sighed, "I'm fine Johnny, just the same unwelcome visitor as before."
"And who is that?" John asked while examining her hand.
"Sebastian," she stated before pulling her hand away and cleaning it herself.
"Bloody bastard," John shouted, "can't he bloody leave you alone?"
"I guess not," Cassie answered, "I'm too ~irresistable~."
John chuckled and shook his head. "Only you would complement yourself after being assaulted."
Cassie smiled. "Yup that's me, always looking on the bright side of life."
John just shook his head.
"Oh, you're no fun." Cassie laughed.
"Come on, we have gym."
"Sanzi," Cassie spoke telepathically, "You have to move to someplace no one can see you. Onto my towel."
Sanzi groaned. "Towels and blankets leave a bad taste in my mouth. Damn Cotton mouth."
"Get over it Sanzi."
Sanzi grumbled but slithered his way off of Cassie and onto her towel. "You better not let me go through the wash…again."
Cassie chuckled and John's ears turned red. "That wasn't my fault," he stammered, "Ella took that towel from me and I couldn't get it back."
"Excuses, excuses, you could have do" The rest of what Sanzi said was muffled as Cassie folded the towel he was on.
"Go back to your own locker room John, unless you want people thinking you're a pervert…or a queen."
"Ha ha Cassie," John said dryly before leaving.
Cassie took a deep breath and went through the door leading to the pool.
"Bring on the hoarde."
"There is no way that she can do that with her tongue," Tyler protested.
"I swear its true," Reid said laughing.
"Hey guys, stop dicking around," Caleb told them as he walked up in his speedo shorts.
All four boys, Pogue included, were standing at the edge of the pool, waiting for class to begin.
"Damn Caleb," Reid groaned, "You ruin all my stories."
Caleb smirked, "Deal with it."
Reid got up in Caleb's face. "What if I don't want to?"
Before Caleb could retort, Tyler let out a long low whistle.
"Why thank you Tyler," Cassie said as she approached. "Not very gentlemanly, but flattering nonetheless."
When Reid looked, he forgot that there were others in the room. "Hot damn," he spoke softly, "She is so worth settling down for."
Even though he spoke softly, Cassie, with her super hearing, heard what he said and blushed.
"Hey Reid, man, head out of the clouds," Pogue told him as he passed by to get to his lane in the pool.
"Its not in the clouds," Reid shot back, "but it is at a higher elevation than usual."
"TMI dude," Pogue laughed.
"Butterfly, to your lanes." The coach announced.
"Hold my towel please?" Cassie asked Reid.
"Sure," he told her.
Cassie stood at the top of her lane waiting for the signal to go.
"On your mark…get set…go," the coach blew his whistle and the swimmers were off.
Cassie dove into the water and immediately was off, her legs kicking, her arms pushing her body through the water. Reid was not only stunned by her beauty but her speed as well.
"Dude, she's faster than Pogue," Tyler remarked.
"I suppose she is," Caleb said while studying her closely.
Cassie soon reached the top of her lane again and climbed out.
Reid wrapped her towel around her and kept his arms wrapped around her. "Good job Cassie," he whispered in her ear.
"Thanks," Cassie told him before pulling away as the coach approached.
"Good job new girl," he told her, "we could use someone like you on the team."
Cassie smiled. "I'm sorry, I don't compete."
The coach shrugged. "If you ever change your mind, let me know. You go shower up new girl." The coach turned back to the rest of the class and yelled, "The rest of you maggots get back to work!"
