"He what? Can you.. slow down?! Stop talking like a zombie is chasing you!" Cherice hissed. I just made Elle, Cherice and Sienna having a slee over at my house.
"He told me that he has a girlfriend when I'm sitting next to him as Katherina. He decribed Cassie perfectly. He described as messy black hair, glasses and braces." I said and the three of them looked at me without blinking.
"He's into you." Cherice said.
"He didn't even care about Katherina, this hot girl.." Elle said gestured my body.
"He's so into Cassie." Sienna said.
"You like him right?" Cherice asked.
"I think.. I do-" Before I can finish the sentence, they squealed together. Elle even threw a pillow at me.
"Ugh! Stop, let's move on to the next topic!" I said shyly.
"Move on? This is such a big news, out of the four of us.. it's pretty hard for you to like someone!" Elle said and I shook my head.
"It's because no one wants to be with a loser."
"Even as Katherina, you rejected a lot of guys." Sienna rolled her eyes.
"Hey! I'm not interested in any of them."
"You didn't even try." Elle said and my phone vibrated. Before I can take it, Sienna took it.
"Are you sleeping?" She read the text and the girls squealed making me laugh.
"Reply it!" Elle threw the phone back to me.
"Reply now!" Cherice said.
"What should I answer?"
"No!" Elle hissed.
Cole Harrison: Are you sleeping?
Cassie Edwards: No, not yet.
Cole Harrison: Why? It's pretty late.
Cassie Edwards: You're not sleeping yourself.
Cole Harrison: Can't sleep.
Cassie Edwards: Why is that?
Cole Harrison: Thinking about someone.
Cassie Edwards: Oh nice.
Cole Harrison: You don't want to know?
Cassie Edwards: No.
Cole Harrison: Mean and rude.
Cassie Edwards: I am not.
Cole Harrison: Go to sleep, it's late.
Cassie Edwards: You too.
Cole Harrison: Okay then, goodnight girlfriend. I'll see you in school on Monday.
Cassie Edwards: Goodnight.
After that I went to sleep. The rest of the weekend, me and my friends worked out and spent time together.
We will go to New York soon and spend some time there until the runway. My relationship with Cole is still going but it's more like a friend instead of being in a relationship. That's why.. I can't say that he's boyfriend.
"I can't wait to update a lot of photos." Elle said. She's so excited, I mean we all are.
"As always.." Sienna said.
"You're opening the show so.. don't be nervous." Cherice said.
"Is your family going to come?" I asked.
"Yeah, they will." Cherice answered. "How about you?"
"They will."
"How's Cole?" She smirked as she teased me with her eyebrows.
"As usual."
"Usual? What do you mean? Tell me."
"I mean.. we're not really boyfriend and girlfriend. We're just.. hanging out a lot. I spent time in his house playing PS5 and talk. That's it."
"Are you going to tell him about your secret?" She asked and I shook my head.
"No, I don't think so."
"Why?"
"I don't know. I like him, I do. He's sweet but our relationship isn't like that. It's not enough for me to share it." I sighed.
"How long have you been close to him?"
"About 2 months."
"He likes you, I bet this is new to him too." Cherice said and I shrugged.
"I think he's just using me. He made me as his girlfriend for it."
"Cassie, he talked to about you when you're Katherina. I don't think he's using you.." I looked at her and she smiled.
"But we're not like everyone else."
"I bet he has a reason for it. Why don't you ask him?"
"Ugh! I don't want to talk about him." I closed my eyes and she chuckled.
"Sleep well and dream of him." I glared at her and closed my eyes again. After a few hours flying, we arrived in New York. We got jnto our hotel first and pampered ourselves.
We went to the spa to relax our body and then we went straight to the gym.
"Hey mom." I called after I remembered that I have to tell her that I already arrived.
"I knew you would forget to tell me, I had to ask Flora." She chuckled.
"Sorry, got a little too excited."
"I know. A little information, me and Rissa will go there in 4 days. The other will come a day before the show." She said and I sat down grabbing my drink.
"Make sure to sleep well and eat well too." She reminded me.
"Don't worry, mom."
"Okay, have fun. Love you."
"Love you too." I ended the call.
Cole Harrison: Why aren't you coming to school? For a nerd, you ditch a lot.
Cassie Edwards: Family problems.
Cole Harrison: Too often, Cas. You often disappear like this and don't even bother to tell me.
Cassie Edwards: I'm a wizard.
Cole Harrison: Not funny.
Cassie Edwards: I'm funny, you're mean
Cole Harrison: How long will you be away?
Cassie Edwards: 2 weeks.
Cole Harrison: Where exactly are you?
Cassie Edwards: Somewhere.
Cole Harrison: Cassie, I want a real answer today.
Cassie Edwards: I'll tell you later.. if I want to tell you.
Cole Harrison: Okay.
"Why are you laughing?" Elle asked.
"Nothing." I said.
"Ahh Cole?"
"No."
"You're lying!" She hissed. Before she can continue to tease me, my phone rang and it's Cole. Elle squealed and she gestured me to pick it up.
"Hello."
"Hey." He said.
"What's up?" I asked and Elle gestured the girls to join me.
"Nothing, just missing your voice." He said and Sienna's eyes widen. They're squealing silently.
"Okay."
"Where are you?"
"Singapore."
"Huh? Singapore? Are you on vacation?" He's confused:
"A little vacation won't hurt right?" I said.
"Lucky you."
"Just study and have fun, Cole, don't be jealous." I said in a teasing tone.
"I can't. I'm busy thinking about someone." The girls went nuts.
"Then stop."
"I can't stop thinking about her."
"Oh great, good to hear that." Elle gave me a teasing look.
"After you comeback, I'm expecting you to pay those hours when you're away." He said and Sienna gone crazy.
"Oh.. I'll think about it."
"You have to, I'm taking you out."
"Oh."
"That's all you got? I'm missing you here and saying that I'm taking you out.. that's your reaction?" He asked.
"Miss you too, bye!" I ended the call and the girls gone crazy.
