Great chapter Poor Sasha Hope she tells Casey what is going on. Update soon xx

[JosieTash]

Stu is SUCH a possessive animal !!!!!!

Latest updates were TOTALLY ACE, especially ……

 Sasha's eyes already searched for Casey in the crowd, Stu was driving her insane. Finally she spotted him at the food table, he stood taller than everyone else. He was talking with someone, his white teeth brightly flashed as he laughed and smiled, his blue eyes shimmering like everything else in the room. He was wearing a white button down shirt, sleeves rolled up and a pair of black trousers. Sasha began pushing past people to get to him, eager to see his face. Her best friend. Suddenly, Stu was at her side with his hand tightly wrapped around hers.

 Casey took in how beautiful Sasha looked, she was slightly taller and he clocked her gorgeous legs in her high heels, and watched as she puckered her dark red lips. She was about to run to Casey, throw her arms around him and tell him she needed saving from Stu's lameness but just then, she saw April. She stood beside Casey, looking tiny beside his huge frame. April was wearing a navy, floor length dress with lace arms, and her hair was in some sort of fancy updo. April smile cautiously, she'd always been a little scared of Sasha.

 She wrapped her arms around herself, cold. "What are you doing out here Sash?" she heard a warm familiar voice behind her, the one she'd been yearning for, all evening. She turned and saw Casey standing tall above her. She shrugged, and hugged herself again. Casey took a seat beside her and slipped off his jacket, placing it over Sasha's shoulders. Stu would never of done that for her. He placed his arm around her shoulder and pulled her close against him. "Where's April?" Sasha asked, looking up at him. Casey shrugged, "She left a while ago." he said. He watched the wind whipping at her face, she lookded tired. "I never got a dance with you." Sasha mumbled, looking down. "Well let's have one now." he said smiling, he took Sasha's gentle hand, delicately and pulled her to her feet. He picked up her shoes in his other hand. He placed his around around her and they slowly walked back into the dance.

 Stop being friends with him." he demanded, taking her hand and sqeezing it tight. "But..." Sasha looked taken aback, she couldn't loose Casey. "I said, stop being friends with him." Stu repeated in a low hushed tone.

He pulled up outside Sasha's house and turned to face her. "I love you Sasha. But he's got other intentions than friendship, so I don't want you talking to him again, okay?" he asked, taking her hands softly. Sasha went to speak, and watched anger flush in Stu's eyes. She nodded.

 She looked at the messages, so tempted to reply. She wanted nothing more than to run to Casey's, tell him how scared of Stu she was, tell him how much she needed him around, tell him he was the best person in the world, the only person that ever looked after her...but she couldn't.

 Stu stood and sent Sasha's phone fly across the room. "Now he won't contact you again." he said calmly.

 Sasha sat at a table alone, waiting for Stu. He'd told her to cover up a little more, so she wore leggings under her skirt and a high necked t-shirt.

 "Oh er, well if you want me to go?" he asked sadly, what had he done? Was it the dance? Did she figure out he liked her?

"Yeah, please." Sasha said, coldly.

"Well, you know where I am." Casey said, and with that he left.

A tear ran down her cheek, Casey was gone.

Chapter 9

Sasha lay in bed staring a the laptop aimlessly, she couldn't sleep and the light from the laptop screen lit up her tired eyes. She stared aimlessly at her chat list, it was 1am so there was nobody online. Just as she decided sleep was in order the screen lit up - "Casey - Online." Casey hadn't been online in over two weeks now, since they had last spoken in the diner, she had been avoiding him since.

She opened up a chat box, and decided to take the plunge.

Sasha - Hey

Casey - Hey

Sasha - How're you?

Casey - Fine, you?

Saha - I'm okay.

Casey - Good.

Sasha - I miss you.

Casey - Where did you go?

Sasha - Stu said we couldn't be friends anymore.

Casey - Why?

Sasha - He thinks your in love with me or something, ha.

Casey has gone offline.

After their somewhat akward conversation, Sasha picked up her new phone and typed Casey's number in straight from memory.

"Where did you go? Did you get my last message. I miss you. xxx" She pressed sent and eagerly waited for a reply, constantly checking the screen on the off chance Casey would come back online.

"Sorry. I got cut off. So we can't be friends anymore?" Sasha read the message, it sounded blunt and hard as if he didn't care at all. Casey lay there, staring at his laptop screen, his internet hadn't gone but he couldn't face talking to Sasha again knowing this was inevitably the end of their friendship.

"I miss you Case, it's Stu. Can I come over tomorrow night? I need to see you. xxx" Sasha sent the message and as Casey read it, his heart melted. She missed him too., maybe not in the same way he missed her, but she still missed him. It had been so long since Sasha had been round at the Braxtons, even Heath and Brax had stopped asking about her. "Of course, counting down the hours already. xxx" Casey sent his message, he couldn't help but do anything Sasha asked him, she was totally under her spell.

Sasha recieved the message and smiled, she was finally going to see Casey again. She was going to see his smile, his laugh, his silly jokes, his hugs. She had her best friend back and she couldn't wait to see him. She thought of Stu, they were supposed to catch a movie tomorrow night and she couldn't tell him where she was going, she would have to say she was ill. Indi would almost certainly cover for her.

Casey lay there with a little smile on his face, the first smile in over two weeks. Just the thought of seeing her made him feel so warm and safe, he needed her around for him. Maybe tonight he would finally get the chance to tell her just how wonderful she was to him, his saviour. He was a better person when Sasha was around. Sasha closed her eyes and all she saw was Casey, she just wanted tomorrow night to hurry up and arrive so she could see him again, just like they used to.

The next day Casey walked into the diner and spotted Sasha and Stu at a table in the corner, they locked eyes immediately and Sasha flashed him a tiny smile, and he smiled back. It felt so good for both of them, as if they were reunited at last. Casey kept a steady eye on Stu, to make sure he didn't notice, he was face down tetxing. "Outside?" he whispered gesturing to the door, he exited.

Sasha stood from her seat, "Just gonna go call my dad, singal sucks in here." she smiled at Stu. "Okay..." he said, barely lifting his head from his phone. Sasha ran outside and immediately spotted Casey leaning up a wall, she ran to him and threw her arms around him. He held her tightly, safely and they stood there for a few seconds.

"7 o'clock okay tonight?" Casey asked with a small smile and Sasha nodded. "I'm gonna tell Stu I'm ill." she said almost confidently. It had been so long since she'd seen his face that she touched it softly for a second. "You need a shave!" she joked and he poked her in her side, "Casey!" she screamed giggling. She gave him one final hug and ran back inside, both of them so secrelty happy.

What do you guys think?

Chapter 10

"So your sick?" asked Stu, holding the phone to his ear, he was just above to drive to Sasha's. "Yes." she said simply, "I've been throwing up and I've got a headache." she added, hoping it sounded believable. "Well I can come around anyway? Look after you?" he pushed. "No, it's okay. Indi and Dex are looking after me, I'll see you tomorrow." she said calmly, she hoped he wouldn't hear the nervousness in her voice. "Okay, I'll hit Angelos with the boys." he said harshly, as if he had better things to do. "Okay, have fun, I love you." Sasha whispered. "I love you too." Stu hung up.

Sasha peeked into the living room where Indi and Romeo sat snuggled in front of the television, sharing a blanket. Dex was on the oppisite sofa. "I'm going." she called, eyeing Indi. "Have fun, take care." Indi smiled and with that she was out of the house and walking to Casey's. She walked along through the pouring rain, getting drenched - her hair soaked. She ran under the cover of the Braxton's front porch and without her even knocking Casey swung the door open and pulled her inside.

"Sash, come on in." he insisted. He placed a blanket around her shoulders and gave her a towel for her hair. She wiped the smudged make up from beneath her eyes and dried off. "Oh dear, I look terrible." she said catching her view in the living room mirror. Casey laughed softly, typical Sasha thinking she looked her worst when in fact she looked more beautiful to him than she ever had. They sat on the sofa next to each other, Casey had made her a cup of hot chocolate and she took a sip. "Thanks." she smiled. "So how have you been?" she pressed. Casey shrugged, "Okay, I guess. You?" Sasha nodded, "I'm okay."

They sat there in silence for a little while. "I rented Mean Girls?" Casey said, picking up the DVD from the floor and handing it to her. "Something your not telling me?" Sasha winked, laughing. Casey shook his head, "It's for you. It's your favourite film right? I thought you'd like to watch it." He stood up and began fiddling with the DVD player, she watched him do so. Stu had never bought her movies, made her hot chocolate or cuddled her up in a blanket and took care of her like Casey had. He was so gentle. They sat down to the movie and Sasha placed her legs on Casey's lap, he smiled and softly touched her bare leg for a few seconds before tearing his hand away. He finally felt like he had Sasha back.

Half way through the movie Sasha reached down into her bag and checked her phone. 3 missed calls and two texts from Stu.

- "Why can't you answer?"

- "Answer me."

Sasha stared at the texts, a little worried and quickly wrote a reply. "Sorry, migraine. I'm sleeping, I love you. xxx" she sent the message and placed her phone back into her bag. "Everything okay?" Casey asked eyeing her frightened expression. "Just Stu, texting." she half smiled. "What's his deal?" Casey asked.

Will continue this chapter later this evening! xxx
