"Tell me who you love!", chapter 12
*Cassie's P. O. V*
I stood in complete shock. Was Billie saying what I thought he was saying? My mind was telling me to say yes but my heart was telling me to say no. Should I follow my mind or my heart?
"Yes Billie, of course I will marry you!" My mind obviousley.
"Oh, thank god, for a minute I thought you weren't going to say anything" Billie said, placing the ring on my finger. I gave a feeble giggle.
He embraced me in a warm hug for a minute or two before asking the question I had been dreading.
"Shall we go and tell the guys?" he asked. I just wanted to take the ring off and run away. Far away from here. Far away from Billie. Far away from Tre.
"Yeah" my mouth blurted out before I could even change my mind. Billie took my hand as we walked into the living room.
"Did we miss something?" Mike asked as soon as he saw us holding hands. Tre broke his gaze from the television screen and looked down at Billie's fingers entwined with mine.
"We have something to say" Billie announced, holding onto my hand tighter.
Mike and Tre looked at us expectantly.
"We're getting married" Billie said a bit too quickly. The pair just sat, staring at us with expressionless faces. I could see Tre glaring at Billie slightly.
Billie jerked his head a little and suddenly Mike and Tre burst out into cheers and 'congratulations' But neither seemed to mean what they said. I thought they would be happy for us. Was their something going on?
"Tre, can I talk to you?" I whispered to him once I had finally got him on his own.
"Yeah, sure" He said.
"I just wanted to say sorry"
"Sorry for what?" he asked dumbly.
"Sorry for leading you on and sorry I let you go like I did" I replied.
"Yeah, whatever. It's all in the past" He said, looking down at his feet.
"Aren't you happy?" I asked, just to make sure.
"Yeah, i'm happy for you Cassie" he mumbled.
"And Billie?" I add. He doesn't reply, but carries on looking down at his feet shiftily.
"Tre, what's up?"
"I don't want you to get hurt Cassie" he says softly, finally looking me in the eye.
"What does that mean?"
"He doesn't love you" he says simply.
"What the fuck Tre. Look i'm sorry if I rejected you, but you need to see that I love Billie and Billie loves me" I say, starting to get irritated.
"I think their's things you don't fully know about Billie"
"He's told me everything about him. Why would he keep something from me?"
"Why don't you go ask your husband yourself?" he snaps bitterly.
"Tre, don't take that tone with me. Please. I still want to be friends and I don't understand why you are saying all of this"
"Billie is a prat and he should know better. He doesn't love you Cassie" I stand looking at him, my fists clench I i get angrier by the minute.
"Billie does fucking love me you prat!" I shout, turning around and grabbing the door handle to go out.
"He's already fucking married!"
I stood in complete shock. Was Billie saying what I thought he was saying? My mind was telling me to say yes but my heart was telling me to say no. Should I follow my mind or my heart?
"Yes Billie, of course I will marry you!" My mind obviousley.
