THE SONG
(CASSIE'S POV)
The same day…
I met Cole in History class and he seemed frustrated with me. I had just one idea of the reason that was my not talking to them. After the class, Cole stopped me at the gate.
"Cassie, we've gotta talk!" he demanded. "Way there on the seat." He said and made me sit on the first seat in the third row.
"What do we have to talk about?" I asked ironically.
"You and us? We were a gang, right? Not exactly. You are a part of our puppy pack and we're missing our sister – me and Seth. Why are you staying away from us?"
"Not a specific reason, I have." I replied looking on the desk.
"Then why are you always with Ethan and Nathan? I mean I don't have problem to this but you didn't talk to me or Seth since past 5 days."
"Listen Cole, I'm a girl and I don't like staying in boys now." I lied.
"But me, Seth, Ethan, Nathan and Rodrick… you call us your brothers don't you and then why are you sometimes with Ethan, Nathan and Rodrick?"
"That doesn't change that you people ain't girls." I mocked.
"Cassie, what's the reason? Is everything alright? I mean you with that silly 'butterflies'' group, that sounds far more that crazy."
"Well, they're girls and they like me."
"But we all love you Cassie, not that way though. Even Ashley and Sonny? They too are girls."
"I know but I want space, Cole. You were, are and will be my brother always. I know it's a bit of crazy but I need more friends."
"Oh c'mon Cassie! Almost everyone at school is your friend. I mean if we look at our seniors you know them all and they all know you." Cole said. Well in a way he was right. I was presently in 9th grade (a year less than the normal age) and all my friends were elder to me. Cole was 14, Seth was 15, Ashley was 14, Sonny was 14 ½ and Brady had turned 15 last December.
"Why didn't you know this earlier? I need an answer." He demanded.
"Cole, once I am past this, you people will be the first who'll get to know, I promise." I stated and went away. It was really difficult to lie and the most stupid reason I gave him was that I wanted to be just with girls because I knew he was aware of my bit of tomboy nature. My friends knew my more than even my mom but this was crazy. Mom…. Wait a sec! I had to video chat with her yesterday. I forgot this once again. She's not gonna leave me this time and even Paul didn't remind me. Maybe he would've done himself and hit of an awesome excuse to save me as always. We'll see this at home today.
BACK AT HOME, VIDEO CHAT
Paul had told me that he did the video chat last night and had told mom that I wasn't feeling fine. I had some headache or something that I acquired while studying. This was a good excuse because I am a book worm at times. I texted mom and asked her to come on Skype. The reply came in some seconds and it was
'In a sec.' this was mom's texting language. I connected to the net through my pc and went to Skype. Mom was as always there as lightening.
"Hey mum!" I greeted.
"Hey Hun! How're you?" she asked.
"Awesome and you?"
"Good. We're really busy these days I must say. So, I guess your dad won't be able to come home this month and the next too."
"Why?"
"Busy, busy, busy. So how's the school going?"
"Awesome as ever. Having fun here."
"You don't seem like."
"One of my friends is in trouble. I mean she likes a wolf but she can't tell her that she likes him because she thinks that their relationship would end up like Sam and Leah."
"Hun, you started trusting?"
"Sort of because of a friend."
"A just friend?"
"Mom…"
"Okay, okay. I guess she should forget him, isn't it? Be happy with other friends." Mom said. Really? This kind of an answer? That too by mom? Crazy! This was something that is not usual.
"Okay. So, guess bye mom." I said and turned it off. The door knocked while I was stuck in books.
"Cassie?" it was Ethan's voice.
"Come in." I muttered.
"You're a real bookworm, you know that?" he said.
"Thanks for the compliment." I grinned.
"So I have a problem." He said.
"Yes, what's it?"
"Sonny loves music and I have to sing her a song."
"You want a song?"
"Yeah. A superb one."
"I don't write romantic songs."
"Any?"
She'll love one song: KISS YOU by One Direction." I stated.
"You sure?"
"She'll love it." I said and he went off happily. At least someone was happy.
It proved to be really good for Ethan as Sonny loved music like me. Then, they went to a date on Wednesday. Nathan and Ashley were going good too. They went there the next week i.e. on Thursday. Everyone was happy. That night I was playing videogames when the doorbell rang up. I got up and opened it.
"Hey Cassie!" it was Brady.
"Hey Brady!" again he was there unexpected.
"May I …"
"Come in." I said.
"Been days since we hung out together, isn't it?"
"Yeah. So what's up?"
"All good and your butterfly gang?"
"As crazy as ever." I said and made him follow up to my room. My guitar was kept on the bed with my writing diary.
"You were writing songs?" he asked.
"Yeah, just wrote one for that someone…. My umm…crush, yeah."
"Aw! That's cute. Could I hear it too?"
"You wanna hear it? Okay, here." I took my guitar and here was the song.
1) You're around me all the time
You're everywhere I see,
Sometimes lookin' from the window:
I notice you staring at me.
I maybe am mistaken…
For giving my heart to you
-I sometimes really wish that you said
YOU LOVED ME TOO. -2
But here I am …I am
All alone without you -2
3) Maybe we're just friends
And just love sharing our trends
But there are times when I really
Feel something for you -2
I wished that the one was me who you wanted to away…
From the world and make me smile
When every time
I Cry…
-I sometimes really wish that you said
YOU LOVED ME TOO. -2
But here I am …I am
All alone without you -2
4) Maybe when I knew no relationships
It was you had a friendship
But when I felt to believe
I wasn't that so relieved
When all these bonds seemed true…
I made a huge mistake
That I fell for you
-I sometimes really wish that you said
YOU LOVED ME TOO. -2
But here I am …I am
All alone without you -2
(AN: I WROTE THE SONG MYSELF. HOW'S IT? REVIEW?)
"Thank you." I said after I finished. "How was it?"
"Awesome. The best song I've ever heard." He replied.
"Thanks. So why're you here today?"
"Yeah right. Wanted to tell you something. You know it's 2nd of February tomorrow and it's the founder's day of TMFC. I'm gonna perform and I'll tell you guys who my imprint is. I need your guys' support, so I beg you to come, just for the sake friendship. You people are my real courage. Especially you Cassie." He said. Aw! He is so cute. So, I mean something in his life, don't I?
"I'll be there." I said.
"Thanks." He said and hugged me.
"We all will be there." I said.
