Secret Circle TV Show: Jake and Cassie

CHAPTER# 3

The shrill scream of the alarm clock woke Cassie up. Her ankle was feeling much better, but she'd still have a limp. No heals today, she'd have to wear her Nikes. With a look at the curtain, they parted to let the sunshine in. After a quick shower, Cassie put on her TNA pants and a cute top. When she checked herself in the mirror, she saw Jake's reflection through the window. He had his shirt off and was doing something in his room. She didn't mean to stare, but he had a nice body, ripped abs. Her breathing got heavier and sexual desire flowed through her veins.

In his own room, Jake felt Cassie's stare. When he turned to the window, he could see her standing in front of her mirror, her back to him. He opened the window a crack, just so he could linger longer, without being too obvious. He felt a surge of sexual need, he wanted to be with Cassie.

Cassie tossed her hair with a head shake and looked away from the mirror. She was a little embarrassed by her body's reaction. The ring of her cell phone provided a great distraction. "Hello? Oh, hi Adam....  Sure I'd love a ride to school. I'll be down in five minutes."

Adam and Diana were waiting for her when she got into his Ford. Cassie said good morning to them both and Diana asked about her ankle. She confirmed it was getting better. They discussed going over the papers after school. Adam parked and they all walked towards the school together.

"I have a math quiz today," Cassie complained to no one in particular.

"Damn, I forgot about that test," Adam said.

Diana sighed, "I can't wait to graduate, school sucks."

Cassie laughed, "with everything that has happened lately, doing something normal is a relief."

Faye heard her as she walked over with Melissa, "normal is over-rated."

Ignoring Faye's comment, Cassie asked, "are you two coming over after school to look at those papers?"

Melissa said, "sure, but first I have to work on my english essay. Would you mind helping me with it Diana?"

Diana agreed to help and Faye rolled her eyes. "I've got plans tonight, sorry."

The bell rang and everyone scrambled to get to their homerooms. Cassie noticed a new guy in hers. He was tall like Jake, asian and very cute. She liked his short spiky hair. She sat beside him and he shot her a quick smile. Finally she was no longer the new kid at school.

"Hi I'm Cassie," she whispered.

He leaned into her and said, "I'm Raiden. What's your first class?"

"History."

"Damn, mine's math," he said.

Cassie smiled, "I feel your pain, today I have a math quiz. But I can show you where the room is, it's on my way."

"Thanks."

They left homeroom and Cassie found out that Raiden's uncle was Calvin, the missing antique store owner.  Raiden said his mom got a strange letter in the mail saying that Calvin had to leave town and wasn't sure when he'd be back. Cassie confirmed that she hadn't seen the store open in weeks. They chatted a little longer and then went to their separate classes. Cassie sent a mass text message to her circle, letting them know about Raiden and Calvin.

Cassie didn't see Raiden after class, but she ran into Diana. "Oh my god, he is so cute."

"In that case I can't wait to meet him," Diana replied.

Cassie looked around and then saw Raiden, "well here's your chance, he's right there." She dragged Diana with her.

"Hi Cassie," Raiden greeted her warmly.
