"Hey"
Turning around Mattie and I both came face to face with Cassie, but Ric wasn't with her
"Where's Ric?" I asked looking over her shoulder to see if I could see him "Don't know don't care, Besides, us girls might actually be able to have some fun"
"I thought he was coming too" Mattie asked
"Well, there was a slight changed of plans, Drink?" Cassie simply replied looking quite happy with herself. Looking at Mattie and I, we slowly nodded as she walked over to the kitchen counter where the drinks were sitting. Mattie and I looked at eachother both completely tired of their behavior towards eachother.
After a good 15 minutes of being at the party Mattie, Cassie and I were standing in the kitchen talking about anything and everything when Ric walked in.
We all looked over as he entered the kitchen, I smiled knowing he was here to have a good time and not caring if Cassie was there
"What're you doing here?" Cassie asked looking annoyed
"Why should I miss out just because you're here?" Ric said placing the bag of Lays chips and fizz on the kitchen counter
"I thought we agreed at the hospital?"
Mattie and I watched back and forth between Cassie and Ric once again
"No, you answered for me. For future reference, I don't like that so much" Ric answered back
"Okay guys how-" "Just go Ric you're only here to annoy me" Once again, Mattie was cut off by Cassie
"I'm here to have a good time, if you don't like it; you can leave" Ric replied back with some hand sass and stalked out of the room
With a silent agreement with Mattie, I gave her a slight nod and followed after Ric
"Ric" I called out after him in the living room of Tash and Rob's new appartment. He turned and looked at me, he gave me a bright smile
"Hey Elle!"
"Can we talk for a sec?"
"Sure, what's up?" he asked
"You and Cassie" He gave me a look as if saying 'what do you mean?' "Don't give me that look, you two bickering all the time has to stop! It's getting tiring and a bit pathetic; me and Mattie are getting sick of getting stuck in the middle."
His face softened at this "I'm sorry, she just annoys the hell out of me. I'll stop, just make sure she does"
"You better. Just sort it out because it's not fair" and with that I just left him standing there went over to the couch where Kim and Hayley sat talking being totally antisocial.
"Comón you too, get off your backside and have fun! Ya'know that thing you do in life that doesn't make you boring!" I said walking over grabbing both of their hands pulling them to the dance floor, which was really just the livingroom floor.
Mattie and Me were now standing next to eachother in the kitchen when Martha walked in looking not to happy. She spotted Me and Mattie and walked over to us
"What is it with those two?" Martha asked standing next to us
"Tell us about it" I replied and we all looked out the door into the living room where Tash, Rob, Ric and Cassie were all standing together looking at us
"Listen Mattie, Elle; we're sorry about before" Ric said starting the apology
"You're right, you's have been getting stuck in the middle of it, it's going to stop from now we promise" Cassie finished
"Really?" I asked
"Yep, we've got it sorted" Ric said, both nodding at us "Im going to go, You guys have a good night"
Ric began to walk off "I'm going to head home aswell, walk me. See you guys tomorrow!"
Me and Ric walked out of the kitchen, Saying out goodbyes to Tash and Robbie as we left.
"I really am sorry Noelle" Ric said with his head down, obviously still feeling bad
"Ric, it's fine! Just as long as you to keep it up! Now, I better get inside before Irene thinks somethings going on. I'll see you later"
Walking through the door, I find Hayley at the breakfast bar, Kim at the table and Irene and Beth sitting on the couch drinking a hot drink.
"Hey darl, how was the party?" Irene asked, noticing me enter through the door
Leaning over the breakfast bar i noticed everyone was looking at me, I grabbed and apple answering before I took a bite "It was good! Matties still there with Cassie, Ric walked me home. How was the singles night?" I asked wagging my eyebrows up and down. Kim began laughing at my expression
"Don't even get me started darl"
After about 30 minutes Beth left and I decided to head upto bed
"Goodnight" I said as i walked up the stairs
