Chapter 3

Cassie's POV

Adam drove me home after school. I opened the door and saw my mom decorating a cake. Since she got better, she had been start cooking all sorts of recipes. Don't take me wrong. I don't really mind. I'm happy she is energetic and tries to occupy herself but we need an army to eat all these cakes!

She looked up from the cake and said "How was school, Cassie?"

"Fine" I said. "There is a new guy at school. His name is Daniel and he's coming over because we have to do a project in literature."

"Ok." She said and asked the question that was bothering her "So ,did you enjoy yourself last night with Diana?"

"Yeah, it was great." I replied. I had told her that I would spend last night with Diana because I didn't really think that she would be okay spending the night with Adam.

She eyed me suspiciously and asked "Cassie, do you want to tell me something?"

I didn't answer. Damn, I'm totally screwed. She will probably jump down my throat and then punish me for the whole month. She saw that I didn't reply and continued "Well, Diana's father called to check how was Diana because according to her she was staying here last night and not the other way round." Oh great! Diana decided she would spend last night with her boyfriend, too. I tried to find a convincing lie to say but nothing came up. So I stayed quiet. Here comes the lecture.

"Cassie, you should have told me about it. I thought we can trust each other. You can trust me and I don't really mind your spending the night with Adam." She said and then added "Do we need to do the talk?"

"No" I almost shouted. "Anyway, thanks mom." I mumbled and smiled at her. That went really good, I thought.

"Cassie, that doesn't mean you are not grounded." She added. Not so good after all.

"Ok" I sighed "but we are having a meeting tonight at Diana's house."

She nodded and got back to decorating the cake. The door bell rang and I opened the door. Daniel was standing there with his bag and a bouquet of red roses. "Hey, come in." I said.

He gave me the roses with a dazzling smile. After I made the proper introductions , we went upstairs in my room and started working on the project. Mom came for at least three times to ask him if he wanted some cake. He tried to refuse politely but in the fourth time he agreed. When we finished the first part of the project, he placed his hand over mine and asked "Do you want to go for coffee later?" I didn't really hear what he said because when he touched me, I felt a very powerful electric sensation. What was that? I thought. "So, do you want to go for coffee later?" He repeated scanning my face with his icy blue eyes.

"I can't today." I replied remembering the meeting.

"Maybe another time, then." He said and left.

I was lying in my bed thinking what happened with Daniel. What was that sensation? It looked like when Adam touches me but still not quite the same. I sighed. I was so confused. Maybe I should just stay away from Daniel. Suddenly I felt totally drained of energy and I fell asleep. I woke up and realized that I was half hour late for the meeting. I checked my phone. Three missing calls from Adam. I dressed quickly and headed to Diana's house.

Adam's POV

Cassie was half hour late and she didn't reply at my calls. I was getting really worried.

"So let's start without her." Faye suggested when the bell rang and a minute later Cassie was at the room. I sighed in relief that she was ok.

"Guys, I'm really sorry. I just fell asleep and woke up five minutes ago", she said. Faye looked like she wanted to say something but Diana spoke "It's OK, Cassie. Sit down, please, and let's start." Cassie sat next to me and whispered "I'm so sorry."

I put my arm around her and whispered "Don't worry. Are you ok?" I looked her over. Her skin was paler than usual and I could see exhaustion in her eyes. Then Faye said with her husky voice "Adam, Cassie, are you with us?" Diana glared at Faye and asked Cassie and me "What do you think of Daniel?"

Cassie's POV

I was really exhausted and I just woke up. How is that even possible? "Don't worry. Are you ok?" I heard Adam whispering me. I was about to answer when Faye asked sarcastically "Adam, Cassie, are you with us?" and then Diana asked me and Adam glaring at Faye "What do you think of Daniel?"

"I don't think we should trust him." Adam said sternly. Faye rolled her eyes.

"I don't know he looks like a really good guy but…" I stopped myself. What was I about to say? That when he touched me I felt an electric sensation that looked like Adam's touch? Diana looked questionably at me "But?" I sighed "I don't know." I said.

Diana smiled at me and said with her stentorious voice "Cassie, you have the gift of insight. Search deep inside you. What do you think?" I sighed again and tried to search deep inside me but I couldn't find any sensation at all about Daniel. I was extremely exhausted and I was feeling dizzy.

"Cassie, are you okay?" Diana asked forgetting completely her previous question. "You look as white as a sheet."

"I'm fine." I mumbled. Adam looked at me with his concerned blue eyes and said "Do you want me to drive you home?" "No, I told you…"

"Cassie, go. It's fine. We can continue tomorrow" Diana said and there were nods all around the group. "Ok, thanks" When we entered Adam's jeep, he said "Cassie, I should take you to a hospital or call a doctor. You look really pale and…"

"Adam, I don't need a doctor. I just need some sleep." I interrupted him and smiled him. "Cassie, I'm sorry but I'm just worried about you." "It's fine." We stopped in front of number 12. "I should go. Goodnight" "Goodnight" he said and kissed me. It was amazing how every time we kissed felt better than the last one. "I love you." I told him. "I love you, too" he said.

Adam's POV

I saw Cassie walk into her house and close the door behind her. I was worried. I needed to hold her in my arms and make sure she was totally fine.

I got back to my house and decided to call Laurel to ask her if she could make some tea of herbs for Cassie. She was really good at medicinal tea. "Hey, Laurel."

"Adam? What's up? Is Cassie feeling okay?" She said.

"Yeah. I drove her home and she's probably sleeping. I called to ask you if you could make a special tea for Cassie." "Sure, I've already made. Diana was worried, as well, and asked me after you and Cassie had left." "Ok, then thank you and goodnight" "Goodnight" she said and ended the call. Then I went to bed and tried to sleep.
