I Dare You

Chapter 15

We're going home. We bid our goodbyes to our grandparents and they promised to visit us. I slipped my arm to Dean's as we're crossing the road.

"You look tired." He said and I nodded.

"I need a lot of rest."

"How about you stay back and wait for us in the car?"

"No, I want to join you guys."

"Okay then." They went to shop for some snacks and food. We're going back to LA by car so we need some fun snacks for it.

Cole Harrison: What are you doing? I miss you.

Cassie Edwards: Hanging out with my family.

Cole Harrison: When will you come home?

Cassie Edwards: Don't know. Why?

Cole Harrison: I miss you and I'm sure you know that since I've said it a thousand times already.

Cassie Edwards: I'll be home soon, don't worry. Miss you too.

I need to pee so bad. I put my phone in Dean's pocket because I don't have one. I don't like putting my phone randomly in the toilet. I ran to the toilet and did my business.

When I got back, all my siblings were looking at me raising their eyebrows.

"What?"

"Are you dating Cole? Cole Harrison?" Dean asked.

"You went through my phone?!" I raised my voice a little.

"Answer the question, Cassie." Dean said.

"Are you dating him?" Vincent asked and I sighed.

"He's calling you his girlfriend." Victor said and they all waiting for me to answer it.

"I'm not dating him. I mean.. ugh! Yes, I'm dating him." I grabbed my phone and they looked at me disbelief.

"What?" I looked at them confused.

"Let's get out of here so we can talk." Rissa said and with that they all went straight to the cashier.

"Why did you go through my phone?" I asked loud enough for everyone to hear. They checked out and we got into a small cafe.

"Care to explain?" Dean started.

"Don't scare her like that." Rissa warned.

"Explain it to us." Victor said softly.

"We were in the same school and I was dared to ask him out. I did it and he said yes. Ever since that happened, I was his girlfriend. We spent a lot of time together and he doesn't know that I'm Katherina. He knows me as Cassie so.. that's why he's contacting me here not the other phone." I said as I looked down to the ground.

"So he likes you as Cassie?" Victor asked.

"Yes, I think. We never confessed or something like that but he told me that he wanted me to be his girlfriend since 3 weeks ago."

"He likes her." Vincent said and Dean and Victor turned to him annoyed. Rissa smacked his arm.

"You like him?" Dean asked and I turned to Rissa for help.

"Okay, that's enough. She explained enough, Dean." Rissa said and I sighed.

"Listen all of you, we and the Harrison are not friends. I suggest you, Cassie, end things with him." I looked at him disbelief.

"But.. we-"

"No buts, Cassie."

"We will go public soon, Cassie. Yesterday, I talked about it to dad and let me tell you all thay we decided to reveal it in a formal event with red carpets and everything. It will draw a lot of gossips and bad news so I don't want you to be involve in someone else's son who doesn't even like us." Dean said in a serious and cold tone.

"Not only that, we will blow the media by posting pictures with each other and I want you, Cassie, to not be involved in anything related to him." He added.

"He never knew about Katherina so shouldn't I-"

"You'll thank me later for this, Cassie." He cut me and I sighed nodding.

"We don't care if he likes you as Cassie, he's still a Harrison and I don't want him to hurt you." Victor added and I nodded. After that, we decided to go back to our parents who's currently shopping.

"I'll talk to them." Vincent said and I nodded.

"They both are too strict, they'll come around." Rissa added.

"Thanks."
