Erik could feel the comfortableness between them. That wasn't right, Erik always felt himself around her. Time to change the subject.
"So Cass, I'm guessing Harry is taking you to the dance, what dress are you going to wear?" Erik asked. He put a little bit of emphasis on Harry's name.

Cassidy rolled her eyes in her head. If she did have eyes in her head. Guilt covered Cassidy's heart. Erik. Phantom. Uhh, friend. Akward.
"Yeah. He is. Im wearing my black sparkly dress." She replied stiffly. The she remembered what she had heard in the halls. 'Erik was talking to me in the lunge, He calls Delilah his ball of sunshine and they are a couple!' Cassidy couldn't take it. She stood up and stromed outside the entrance. She slunk against the wall in the alley.

Erik saw her stand up and rush out. Thankfully he had already paid for their drinks. He sighed to himself and pushed off the table. He walked out and didn't find her anywhere. He turned in circles and couldn't find her. So he poked his head down the alley to his right and found her slumped against the wall.
"Cass, what in Merlin's Beard was that about!?" Erik asked angrily as he reached her. Sometimes he didn't understand girls.

Cassidy liked it alone. It reminded her of Harry, how he was always understanding her, not just thinking of her of 'a ball of sunshine'. Cassidy wished this never had happened, that she had never stormed out. That she liked Delilah. Sigh. Life.
It took awhile before Erik found her. Cassidy watched his angry face. She stood up. She said nothing. Until.... "Erik. I don't understand."

"What do you mean you don't understand?" Erik asked his face softening. "You walked out on me for just asking a simple question, I didn't do anything to offend you, I was just asking about your dance plans."
Erik stood in front of her. He was demanding answers and felt that he was being accused of something he didn't do.

Cassidy sighed. "I don't think you understand." She said softly. Cassidy felt trapped, like no one was with her. Like... she was being a bad friend. "I wasn't mad about the question. Its a free world. And I don't really have much plans." Cassidy sighed as she hugged Erik. "This hug is as a friend. You remind me of my dad."

Erik felt her hug him and he returned the hug. "Wait, I remind you of your dad. I'm not that old." Erik said laughing.
"Look I still don't really understand what your going through, but just remember I'll be here so you don't need to try to hide from me. I'm your best friend and you can trust me." Erik pushed her back enough to look into her eyes. "You just have to be open with me."

Cassidy shrugged. "No, my dad isn't old. At all. And its just your personality that reminds me of him." She turned away, tears in her eyes.
"I know, I shouldn't be hugging you. But im only as a friend, i think of you as nothing more." She laughed. Like i did before, she added in her head.

Erik was confused. "Cass, I only think of you as a friend too, I'm with, well you know who I'm with. I just though you needed a hug." Erik said as he pulled back. He didn't know how to act around her now. He put his hands in his pockets of his jeans.
"So what does this mean for us? I'm not to fond of Harry, and I know you don't really like Delilah, are we still going to hang out? I don't want to loose you as a friend. You mean to much to me. Your my best friend Cass."

"I did just need a hug, Harry wasn't here, and your my friend." She felt akward this moment. "And yes I know who, and I know you'd prefer a hug from her." Cassidy laughed. "We just are friends, and we probably be nothing more. I am with the boy who lived and your with," She gupled. "Im not making up nicknames put people call her fire head, but in a good way. I like her hair."
"It means that with Harry and Delilah, we'll just be, friends. Like without them in the moment. Like right now. Just we wont be seeing eachother that much." Cassidy choked. "Your one of my best friends too."

"Look I may be dating Delilah, but I am your best friend and I don't want to choose between you. I don't prefer her company over yours so don't talk like that." Erik said.
"I don't want to not hang out as much, but I think that's what's going to happen. Just promise that no matter what happens, you'll still be there for me if I need you." Erik said looking down at his shoes. He didn't like having to talk like this. They were friends and it shouldn't matter who they were dating, that shouldn't drive a wedge between them.

Cassidy nodded. She felt angry, but sad, but happy. Sigh. She was a mix-up.
Cassidy kept nodding. "I only will if you be there for me," A crack in her voice came. "Im sorry if i runaway again." She said, stiflfing a smile. "I just, its..." Tears came streaming down. "I hate myself, im making you feel guilty." Cassidy burried her face in her hands. "I feel like the moment, when, i lost my dad, and then mom got married to Ryan, and Ryan didn't love me. I only had no one.
Except this time, I have Harry, Tabbitha some other people and you, but not as much."

Erik pulled Cassidy's hand from her face and gently wiped her tears from her face. "Don't hate yourself." Erik said quietly, but with authority. "You know I'll be there for you. Forget about your stupid step-dad, were all here for you, even if all of your friends can't get along." Erik said nudging her arm. He gave a small smirk.
"Come on, we can go shopping if you like, you can drag me to anything you like. I'm here for you today."

Cassidy looked up, a small smile spread across her face. "Thanks, Erik." She stepped out of the ally when no one was looking. "I need a new bad for my homework. And ink, and quills. Parchment too." Cassidy pointed out.
"Where do we get that again?"

"Umm, different places Cass. I don't think there is a store here that has everything like that, but we can just keep shopping until you don't want to." Erik said walking beside her out of the alleyway. He saw a store that held parchment and steered her in there. There were tons of different options, yellow, blue, white, black and some that changed colors when you wrote on it. "So what kind do you want?"
