Cassie was annoyed. When it had to with Faye, that wasn’t anything new. The two of them just couldn’t seem to find some middle ground. Sometimes, it seemed like things were getting better and that they were moving past it, then Faye had to be Faye and be the giant bitch that she was. Cassie tried to ignore it but other times, she couldn’t be the bigger person and she would end up on Faye’s level, fighting back with her. It was a vicious cycle. Now that Faye had decided to play matchmaker with Adam her, Cassie couldn’t just ignore it. She’d seriously had enough and she was going to let Faye know exactly how she felt. Why not? Playing the nice guy never got her anywhere with the other witch, so maybe being a total bitch back to her would garner some favor.
Not even knocking, Cassie twisted the doorknob to Faye’s room and slammed it open, storming inside. “Seriously Faye?” She demanded, arms crossed over her chest and scowl firmly in place. “What the hell is your problem with me? And why would you think I needed anyone’s help, especially yours, getting a date?” Cassie didn’t need help with getting dates, she just didn’t want to go out with anyone. She was still in love with Adam, who was here and still didn’t remember anything thanks to that elixir. It sucked, but there was nothing she could do about it. He’d arrived and Cassie had barely talked to him, she’d distanced herself from him and honestly, from the rest of the circle too. She wasn’t sure why or what was going on with her lately. And Faye wasn’t helping matters. Not just with trying to practically pimp her out with that horrible picture, but also trying to fix Adam up with anyone she could. Anyone but her. Then again, she really shouldn’t be surprised. That’s just how Faye was. That’s just how her luck was too.
“Well?” She insisted, glaring at the brunette who was wearing that smug look that Cassie wanted to slap right off her damn face. God, she was in a bad mood and Faye Chamberlain was usually the reason for it.
“Knock much?” Faye replied and rolled her eyes, finishing her text to Jake before she tossed the phone on the bed. She sat there in the middle of it, Indian style and completely not impressed with Cassie. But that wasn’t anything new. She wasn’t impressed. Cassie barging in Faye’s room uninvited was just another reason to not be able to stand her. The whole post was for Adam. She had told Jake a few days before that she was going to hook him up with a girl that would hopefully show him a good time, but it seemed the girls in Portland were more into falling in love or holding onto that sacred virginity. Sam was cool, but she was a virgin and Adam being the first for her on a one night stand wasn’t okay. Even Faye knew that. She had standards. And morals. Sometimes.
“I think you missed the whole point, Cassie. Which doesn’t surprise me,” Faye pointed out and cracked a small smile that turned into a smirk as she looked her over. “That post was for Adam to get a few numbers. I was just making fun of you. Did you really think it was serious? It was a joke.” Her words were slow as she spoke to her frenemy. In no way was she trying to hook Cassie up. Faye was just being a bitch because she could.
Or maybe it was to draw her out. Because as much as Faye couldn’t stand her, she had been keeping to herself. And keeping to herself meant keeping secrets. But Faye kept that to herself.
“Are you done?” Faye asked. “Because I was in the middle of something important.” Not that texting Jake was really important, but it was if it meant that Cassie would leave her alone. Because even if she did lure her out, now that Cassie was showing her face, Faye was over it.
Cassie’s face flushed a crimson color when Faye smirked at her like that, informing her that she was just making fun of her. God, she should’ve known! Now she looked like a total idiot and to be honest, she felt utterly stupid. This only made her more angry, because she was getting sick of Faye picking on her like this. She wasn’t a joke! She was more powerful than Faye would ever be and she was a Balcoin! Faye was just jealous. That’s all it was. As that realization washed over Cassie, her lips slid into a mean smirk and she arched a brow, approaching the bed and standing at the edge of it.
“Whatever your ‘something important’ is must not be too important since you seem to have so much free time on your hands to try and fix Adam up and make fun of me.” Cassie rolled her eyes. “Careful, Faye, your jealousy’s showing. That’s what this is, right? You’re jealous of me, so you try to make fun of me, or make me look like some pathetic loser so it makes you look better. But, guess what, Faye? It doesn’t. It only makes you look even more pathetic and jealous than you are. Is this about Jake? Or wait, is this about the magic again? Seriously, Faye, get over it. How many times do we have to do this?”
“Are you listening to yourself?” The smirk that was on Faye’s face had faded the moment Cassie told Faye she was jealous. Not to mention the dumb crap that came after that, like Jake and magic. Faye being jealous of Cassie and Jake was so four months ago and Faye was doing okay in the magic department. She had her solo magic back and she used it when she wanted, which was like all the time, but who was really counting? Just because she wasn’t amped up on the dark magic didn’t mean she didn’t get what she wanted, when she wanted, but still, hearing Cassie call her out for it all, so maybe it stung, but it also pissed her off and Faye’s dark eyes stared a hole into Cassie.
She looked so proud of herself. Standing over Faye’s bed, announcing that Faye was just a pathetic loser who was jealous of everything that Cassie was or had.
“You’re an idiot. As if I’m jealous of you and Jake. Jake doesn’t even talk to you. Come to think of it, Adam doesn’t talk to you either. Me and Adam are like besties now and you should hear the things he says about you.” So what if Faye was lying. Not about Jake, but about Adam obviously because Adam was way too much of a nice guy to say anything bad about Cassie. Now that was pathetic. “How’s that elixir doing for you?” Faye’s lips curved into a smile. “How does it feel to be the has been. Nobody cares about you, Cassie. You’re just a nutcase with bad blood in you and if you think you’re going to come into my room and throw shit on me, I will shut you down.”
Faye’s smile was gone then and she just glared for a moment before reaching for her phone.
“You can go now.”
Cassie stood there, her jaw clenched tight as Faye ran her mouth about Jake and Adam. Of course she would have to throw that in her face. It wasn’t like Cassie even cared if Jake talked to her anyway. Adam, however, was a different story. She couldn’t believe he was saying things about her, especially to Faye. That didn’t seem like him, he wasn’t that guy, but then again, maybe with Faye, he was. It wasn’t like she’d felt very welcome in the circle lately anyway, so why wouldn’t he be talking bad about her behind her back? That was just great. But she wasn’t letting Faye see how it hurt her to even think about it, she kept her jaw clenched tight and glared at the other witch. Then, in typical Faye Chamberlain fashion, she just had to bring the elixir up. They knew how hard that had been for Cassie, being that it hadn’t worked on her, she’d still remembered everything. All those feelings, they were still there, they’d never gone away or been erased like Adam’s had. It had been painful, to still feel everything they shared and felt for one another and have him remember absolutely nothing. How dare Faye bring that up and use it against her!
As Faye kept going, insulting her like that, telling her no one cared about her, Cassie felt the rage boiling inside her. Her blue eyes narrowed and she glared hard at Faye, wishing she would just shut up. Wishing her throat would just close up and she wouldn’t keep running her stupid mouth, saying all those mean things and making her feel even worse than she already felt.
“No.” Cassie said, darkly, lifting her hand out in front of her. “I’m not going anywhere, Faye. I’m sick of you being a bitch to me, I’m sick of you constantly saying all these horrible things to me. I think what needs to happen is you need to shut up. You talk too much, Faye.” Squeezing her hand, Cassie was using her dark magic to squeeze Faye’s vocal cords to effectively shut her up. She was tired of listening to her and when the dark magic took hold, sometimes Cassie had no control over it. It was the one behind the wheel, not her. And right now, she didn’t care what happened as long as Faye just shut the hell up.
Faye rolled her eyes. Oh, it was so horrible. God, Cassie was such drama and Faye paid her no attention and instead looked at her incoming text. Because that was more important. But Cassie kept talking and Faye’s eyes swept up, her eyebrow going straight up as she watched the other witch. She looked mad, so angry and maybe Faye shouldn’t really test her, but Faye was more about doing stupid shit and regretting it later. “What are you doing?” Faye asked just as Cassie started squeezing her hand and the phone dropped from her hand and landed beside her. “Cassie!” Faye squeezed her neck, the pain that was going through her was annoying at best, but then it became freaking horrendous and Faye tried to scream at her, but nothing came out. Nothing at all.
“CASSIE!” She yelled, or she would have if she could. Her lips were moving, but still - nothing and there were tears in Faye’s eyes because of the pressure around her vocal chords. Fuck this. Faye was livid and even more scared. Scared of Cassie. What the fuck?
Dark magic was strong which was what Faye knew that Cassie was using on her. That little bitch. There was nothing good about Cassie, nothing at all. She was just this walking timebomb and a crazy bitch and Faye dug deep down, her own storm brewing inside of her. With a wave of her hand, she yelled, “Leave me the fuck alone!” Even if it didn’t come out, even if her voice wasn’t heard, it was enough and Cassie went flying into the wall and Faye slumped forward, her breaths heavy and it wasn’t until she groaned, that she realized she had her voice back. It was still sore, it still hurt like a bitch and Faye was up and out of that bed just as Cassie picked herself up from the floor.
Maybe Faye went too far, but wasn’t that just like her? Did Faye’s words or post or whatever really hurt Cassie that much? It was child’s play, even Faye knew that. She was just trying to get a rise out of her, not bring out the dark magic. Cassie went entirely too far and she was a total looney toon and Faye was done, which was why she slapped Cassie hard across the face.
“Get the fuck out you crazy, unstable bitch.”
Cassie couldn’t hear anything, she was only focused on the pain she was causing Faye. She wanted to cause her pain like she was being forced to endure herself. She was sick of it. Sick of the way Faye treated her, sick of constantly having to deal with her attitude and bitchy comments, sick of being some kind of joke to the other witch. Cassie was just over it. On top of that, she had a sister who basically wanted nothing to do with her, there was Melissa who had completely disappeared and who knew if she was even around anymore, Jake who pretended she didn’t exist, and Adam who basically did the same and now he’d sided with Faye in the let’s talk about what a loser and joke Cassie is. It was all too much. She struggled with that dark magic inside her all the time and right now, she wasn’t struggling, she was just giving herself over to it.
Until Faye flung her into the wall. The blonde witch slammed hard against the wall, so hard it knocked the breath out of her and made her realize what she had done. Her blue eyes widened and she scrambled to her feet, looking at Faye, panic, fear and even concern visible on her face. Oh God. She’d gone too far, she hadn’t meant to hurt anyone. Yeah, she was tired of Faye being a bitch and everything else, but she...this wasn’t what she’d meant to happen. The darkness inside her, it was too powerful sometimes, she hadn’t even realized it had completely taken over. “Faye…” She started, as the taller witch approached her and slapped her across the face. It stung and Cassie flinched, lifting her own hand up to rub at her cheek. “Faye, I’m so sorry, I didn’t…” But she could tell the way Faye was looking at her she was seconds away from physically removing her from the room herself if Cassie didn’t just go. It was better anyway, she didn’t understand why she’d lost control like that or how she’d gone that far with the dark magic. Something had snapped inside her. She just needed to go, so she turned and walked from Faye’s room, out the front door. Cassie didn’t know where she was going, but she knew she needed to get away from here. It was only a matter of time before the others found out.
