Cassandra arrived at Eloise's house just about twenty minutes later and found her in much better spirits compared to a few days earlier. "Cassie, I'm so glad you're here! I'm so sorry that I acted like a complete ass at the hospital yesterday!" Eloise apologized. "It's fine, Ellie. I know you're going through a lot right now. I also want to apologize to you. I I shouldn't have continued to push the topic of Nicholas on you like I did. "It's your call, and I'll support you whatever you decide to do." Cassandra's thoughts immediately flashed back to seeing Nicholas in the burger joint with that strange woman. Cassandra felt like she should tell Eloise what she saw, but she bit back her words. She needed more time to think it through before telling her friend what she had seen. After all, she wasn't really sure what it was that she did see. "How's Jason?" Eloise asked enthusiastically. "You have to fill me in on everything!" Cassandra's face went white, and she could feel herself on the v
Cassandra stayed in bed the remainder of the day, napping on and off between TV shows until she finally decided she couldn't lay there any longer. She had to get up and get some food in her belly. She threw on some clothes and decided on having something delivered. Cassandra called out for a pizza, and for the first time in days, she would actually have a little bit of an appetite. Cassandra did a little bit of light cleaning while waiting on the pizza delivery guy to show up. She saw headlights sweep across the walls of her living room and knew her dinner had arrived. She grabbed a twenty-dollar bill from her purse and headed to the door. Just as the doorbell rang, she opened the door, and to her surprise, it was Nicholas! What the heck is he doing delivering pizzas? "Nicholas! What are you doing here?" she asked wide-eyed. "Hey, Cassandra! Well, it looks like I'm bringing you a medium pepperoni with tomatoes and extra cheese," he replied with a friendly wink and a smile. "How are you
After a long night's sleep, Cassandra was feeling very anxious because she had to go and tell Eloise what had transpired the night before with Nicholas. She had not heard back from Eloise yet, but it was still a bit early. With a sigh, Cassandra got up, showered, and dressed. While hoping for a return phone call, she headed to the fridge and grabbed a piece of leftover pizza. By the time Cassandra finished her three slices of pizza, rather slowly, an hour had passed, and still no phone call from Eloise. What could be keeping her? Surely she should be up and about by now. Cassandra dialed Eloise's number and again it went straight to voicemail. She had remembered when she was away with Jason and she kept getting her voice mail, that was when Eloise had found out she was pregnant. Clearly, at the time, she was in crisis mode and it concerned Cassandra that something else might be going on now that was causing her to ignore her calls. Cassandra decided she was just going to drive over to
Cassandra closed the door and stood against it for a few brief seconds, letting the conversation sink in. Jason loves me. She couldn't get those three words out of her head. It couldn't be true. But then what would explain Charles traveling to her house from – she wasn't even sure where the tour was right now. Cassandra hadn't felt this energized in days. She suddenly had a burst of happiness coarse through her body at the thought of Jason feeling the same way about her as she felt about him. She would have to call him right away! But how in the world was she going to explain to him that she didn't trust him the entire time? How is she going to tell him that not only had she thought that he had been with some random groupies, but had been with Skylar Belle? How stupid she had been to take a rag magazine's cover for face value. She should have known better! What a fool! When it came to Jason, all of Cassandra's common sense flew out the window! The nerves suddenly started to creep back
Eloise hung up the phone and smiled at her friend. Cassandra waited in anticipation for Eloise to give her the news. "Well?" Cassandra asked, almost ready to jump out of her skin. "Was he able to help?" "Yes, he was, and you owe me, Cassandra Miller!" Cassandra pumped her fist with excitement, "Yes!" she shouted in utter excitement. Eloise's friend that had gotten her the first set of tickets and the meet and greet passes had been able to get them another set of tickets to the next Blue Moon show coming up in just a couple of days. Eloise had to pay a pretty penny for these tickets, which happened to be in the front row, but Cassandra had promised to pay her back. Plus, she would pay for the cost of their road trip if she was able to get them for her. Cassandra had not heard from Jason since he had left the message asking if things were over between them, and she had not contacted him either. Cassandra knew that this was not something that she could fix with a text message or phone cal
All the way there, Cassandra and Eloise talked, sang to the radio, laughed, and talked some more. Cassandra could feel that old familiar feeling of butterflies return to her stomach as they grew closer and closer to the city where Blue Moon was playing. They drove right past the venue on the way to the hotel, and Cassandra caught a glimpse of Blue Moon's tour bus. She felt her pulse quicken, and her stomach leaped into her chest as if she had just flown down the hill of an amusement park thrill ride. Cassandra felt more nervous right now than she had the first time she had met Jason in person at the meet and greet. (•) When they pulled up to the hotel and parked, Cassandra immediately flew out of the car, heading straight for the entrance. "Calm down, Cassie... we've got plenty of time." Eloise giggled, observing her overly anxious friend, nearly jog into the hotel lobby. By the time Eloise entered the hotel lobby with bags in tow, Cassandra had already signed for the room, keys in han
Are you ready Eloise? Cassandra asked as she took a deep satisfying breath, although she felt tied up in her thoughts, she didn't know how Jason would react when he saw her , she knew she messed up big time . Cassandra and Eloise walked down to the driveway, igniting the car. She is so excited that she wished she could drive off in a frenzy but could not, she has to be extra careful with driving since Eloise is in the car with her. Eloise can't control so much stress at her early stage of pregnancy , she probably does not want to be the reason her friend would go through stress. As she drove down the road which led to the venue of the show , the thought of her seeing and holding Jason tight to her chest filled her head , she was lost in fantasy that she forgot Ellie was sitting beside her and didn't even know was talking to her . 'Cassie, Cassie, Cassie ' Ellie called Cassandra nervy answered swapping out of her thought 'step out of it and focus on the road' Ellie said her face showing
He stood still, Skylar noticed he stopped performing, she got curious to know why , ' oh not this Barbie girl again ' she thought she had gotten rid of her the last time , she won't let miss barbie ruin her perfect night performance with Jason Cole , she swung into action , she took Jason hands and wriggled her waist on him , she loves the misery in barbie eyes. She doesn't care who Cassandra is but Jason Cole is her's alone and a non-popular girl won't take that desire from her. 'Jason concentrate, the crowd is watching ' Skylar whispered to his ear. Jason focused on the stage but could not stop staring at Cassandra from the audience seat. The thought of Cassandra's beautiful looks, her wonderful smile made me go crazy. she beamed at him , he looked shocked ' why does Cassandra keep coming and going from his life anytime she likes ' he is madly in love with that woman down there. Jason wished the show could end soon so he could run to her and pull her in his arms , kiss her and tell
Three days of close watch on Cassandra, the doctor confirmed and fit to go home.She waited anxiously since the day she regained consciousness for this day to come .' Cassie, I have to call the hotel to check out . Nicholas will get our luggages from the hotel later,' Eloise said, still busy packing.' Ohhh , that great ' Cassandra remembered everything that happened to her , she probably hates Eloise for trying to hide everything from her . She badly wants to ask Eloise why but right now is not the best time , she has to remain calm so she can finally leave this place . The doctor confirmed she was okay but not perfectly stable and advised her to stay away from pressure and stress . Eloise would probably freak out if she asked all the binding questions inside her , if she does Eloise will ask the doctor to let her back here which she definitely doesn't want. She resisted the urge of asking about Jason , so many questions that urgently needed answers ran through her head .' It's a
Cassandra clenched her stomach. ' Gosh I'm so hungry' just then Ellie walked in with a bag of food in her hands ' Thanks goodness ' Cassandra said Eloise handed her the bag , she was ready to devour the food . She has been unconscious for five days and if her quests was right, she haven't had anything in her stomach for five consecutive days. ' Ohhhh c'mon ' she just couldn't wait to munch everything in the bag and probably more Eliose sat quietly and watched her eat , Cassie knew Ellie was nervous and was avoiding her . Nicholas walked in , Ellie jumped up like she has been waiting for this moment to come . ' Hey Cassandra, good to see you vibrant and finally awake, you gave us a shock . Eloise has been worried sick about you' ' I'm so sorry for the stress you both went through all because of me ' she apologized still eating with keen interest ' It's okay Cassie ' Nick said ' Ellie, please can i have more food ' she begged. Eloise giggled ' right away, Nicholas came with me, I need t
Cassandra gently stroked Eloise hair, she felt so weak and her call for Ellie could not be heard . Ellie tossed her head to the other side still sleeping, it dawned to Cassie that the unfamiliar room was the hospital. ' What happened ? How long have i been laying here?' she removed the oxygen bag from her noise. She tried to sit up but was just so impossible, she felt so weak . After so many attempt she finally woke Eloise ' Cassie, please leave me alone , I'm so sleepy ' Ellie shoved Cassie hands off her head. After a while, Eloise eyes was wide open ' Wait was that Cassie hands on my hair or am i dreaming ?' she questioned herself She raised her head up slowly and saw Cassie eyes wild opened, she was staring at her . ' Oh my gawd ' Eloise exclaimed ' Tell me it a dream right now Cassie? ' No, it not ' Cassie said weakly ' Ohhh my gosh, ohhh my gosh, I'm so excited ' she jumped ' I will be right back ' she disappeared She came back with a doctor who was accompanied by a nurse. ' Hell
Jason sat in disbelief, he couldn't believe all that was going on . 'Is he dreaming? Or is he hearing words from Skylar correctly ?' He sat down speechless not sure of what to say . ' Jason, I want you to forgive me, ' she begged with her head down . Jason was shocked by her reaction. ' skylar' He finally spoke after being silent for a while ' It's fine , you acknowledge you were wrong and decided to change , I forgive you' he said patting her hands gently ' Jason, can you do something to show I'm forgiven? Why don't we settle with a hug ?'. ' Sure, there is no harm in hugging ' Jason stood up and gave her a hug which made her smile . ' Thanks' she said softly ' Ohhhh my bad , what do you care for ?' she asked handing him the menu . ' I'm fine with just coffee and no sugar ' Jason smiled Few minutes later , a lady came with his coffee. They chatted for a while ' It's good you changed from your old ways and we are now friends. I have to go see Cassandra, see you soon' he stood up to le
what the heck are they saying right now?' He can't just leave Cassandra here all alone . ' i won't be going anywhere for now, ' Jason said with a frown. ' Jason , this is a decision that has already been made and finalized. Nothing can be done to change it ' one of the board members said ' And who finalized the decision ?' Jasonn questioned ' The whole entertainment board and your manager ' Jason looked at max who tried to hide his face . Gosh, who are they to mess with his life?. He owns his life and has every right to know anything before a decision is being made . Jason stood up in anger , made his way to the door but was stopped by Skylar who had been quiet all this while. ' Not so fast Mr Cole ' he stopped and turned ' This reporter here have an interview with us' ' God , what again is the bitch trying to get at? ' He was fed up of her madness. ' Mr Cole, I hope you comply with her. she is one of the renowned reporters in the media industries ' one of the board directors said as
' This is a miracle ' she screamed, calling for a doctor . The doctor examined her .The doctor face was glowing with a smile . ' Miss Miller will be back with us in no time ' with that he left with his stethoscope. ' I can't wait to hear your voice again ' Eloise leaned and kissed Cassie on the cheek. Jason's life is a mess right now , the woman he loves so dearly is in the hospital because of him. He can't just stop blaming himself. The bitch Skylar was making his life more miserable. Different reporters flooded outside his office, they kept asking the same question about Skylar's claim . Well she is the one who made the claim so she should be the one to answer those crazy reporters. He tried as much as possible to ignore them . He sat down spinning the chair thinking about everything. There was a knock on his door. ' come in ' he said with his eyes still closed not looking up to see who that was . ' Jason, can i have a little of your time ' it was max his manager ' Sure, what do you
' Hi Eliose , it's Nicholas. I just wanna know how you are doing and if you got to the hotel safely' . she played the other mail. ' Hey, Nicholas again. Call me when you get this , I'm worried about you' what a caring guy she got married to . She opened Jason message ' Hi miss , how is Cassandra doing? I'm worried sick right now . please message me when you get this , I need an answer '. Eloise wasn't sure if she should hate or pity Jason right now . She couldn't hate him , the few moments he spent with Cassie , she was a happy woman. She knows because Cassie told her everything that happened and Jason looked shocked as everybody else when Skylar dropped the bombshell. She knew Skylar meant no good when Cassie told her but nobody saw this coming. She recalled Skylar's mischievous smile after the announcement, Eloise swore to make Skylar regret her action. She read the other text from Jason , she decided to reply to all texts later, right now she needs a warm bath . She heated up the s
' excuse me ma'am ' The voice of the nurse brought her back to the painful reality. ' Are you miss Miller guardian?' ' yes I'm ' ' we have some file you need to fill ' ' Okay, no problem , is Cassie alright? what's wrong with her? Why are the doctors taking too long to come out?' ' the doctor will attend to you soon , I can't say much now. Please come with me to sign the file ' she handled Cassie's file to Ellie. Ellie was gloomy, she also needed medical attention, her head and feet hurt badly . Her face looked white and pale. She felt dizzy and fell to the ground. The nurse raced to help her up . ' Miss, are you okay? You aren't feeling well, let me get you a doctor ' ' No nurse, I'm okay. Can I have a pen and the paper ' ' okay, but take a seat , I will be right back ' the nurse returned in a few minutes with a pen and paper. She wrote her number on it and handed it to the nurse, she also left a letter for Cassie . ' Please call me immediately when she wakes up, I'm sorry but I have
' Well Jason boy , I will love to watch you try ' she dared Jason . ' look around, there are cameras everywhere and I'm sure the press would be happy to know the abusive side of their one and only star, If you dare lay a finger on me ' hissing at Jason ' gosh ,I'm so sweaty and worked up ' her makeup was ruined ' I need a mirror, ' she demanded . Nuella her manager jittery round to look for a mirror ``Here you go, ' she said, handing her the mirror. Skylar snatched it fast from her ' ohh ohh , I don't look too bad ' she said to herself. Jason looked around and saw cameras all around the room . Skylar was right , the press would go mad if a video of him being abusive poops up. He couldn't jeopardize the future of his band's success. Jason felt tied up and frustrated, took the mirror and smatched it hard on the ground . Skylar and nuella gasped in horror. ' let go boys' he walked out half satisfied, now Skylar could get a little picture of how crazy he can be . Skylar stood in trepidati
