Oh gosh! I haven't updated in like 2 months! I'm so sorry to all my reviewers! I've been busy with high school and other things. So, I had no time to update! Well, here is chapter 4. Enjoy!!

Chapter 4

I ran my fingers through my wounds. My cuts started to scab already. It's been a week since I've cut. Since Joey found about what happened with my dad. I hate people that I know, knowing about that. People would probably feel sorry for me and treat me different. I hated that.

So, a typical summer day for me is get up at 11 or 12, eat breakfast, read, talk on the phone and or computer, and go over to Spencer's. Boring isn't it?

I decided to go on the computer. I typed in my screen name and signed on AIM. I saw Joey on. He was never on. But the time I'm on he HAS to be on. Great an IM from him:

Bookwormbball- Hey Cassie! How is u?

Blueyedbrunette1122- I'm ok. How about u?

Bookwormbball- I'm good... so what are you doing tonight?

Great, now he is trying to ask me out on a date.

Blueyedbrunette1122- Nothing yet why?

Bookwormbball- I was wondering if you want to go out to dinner somewhere. Like Applebee's or something?

Blueyedbrunette1122- Um, I don't know. I will have to ask my aunt. Hold on one second.

Oh my gosh! I have no idea what to do! Should I? Should I say no? Does he feel bad for me? Oh my gosh I need to ask Heather!

I called Heather up.

"Hello?"

"Heather! Oh my gosh! It's Cassie!"

"What's wrong, Cassie?"

"Joey just asked me out on like a date! Should I go? Should I reject him? What should I do?" I did really like him, but I didn't want him to feel bad for me.

I heard her laugh a little, "Well, do you like him?"

"Yeah! A LOT!"

"Then say yes silly!"

I took a deep breathe in, "Well, my dads story was on "Americas Most Wanted" and he saw it. So, I don't know if he feels bad for me or not. Or I don't know if he does LIKE me."

"Well, you have two options. You can go on the date. If you think he feels bad for you, then ask him. Or the second option is to assume he feels bad for you and not go on the date," Heather explained.

I thought for a second. I really did like this kid. I like Joey since October, which is 10 months. "I'm going. I want to give him a chance."

She laughed, "Then go! Just don't tell Will. He will probably follow you."

I laughed, "No, I won't. You better not though!"

"HAHA! I won't I promise."

"Ok thanks Heather!"

"Your welcome. Have fun tonight. Be yourself, Cassie!" She always said that to me, when going on the date. But that's what a "big sister" does.

Blueyedbrunette1122- Yeah I can go.

Bookwormbball- Ok, great! I will see you there around 7:30 at Applebee's.

Blueyedbrunette1122- Ok, see you there.

I can't believe what I just commit to for night. I had to call Spencer!!

I ran and got my cell. I dialed her number quickly.

She answered the phone, "CASSIE!"

"OH MY GOSH SPENCER! YOU NEVER BELIEVE WHAT JUST HAPPENED TO ME!" I said while jumping up and down and screaming into the phone.

"OMG WHAT!"

"JOEY ASKED ME OUT ON THE A DATE! WE ARE GOING OUT TONIGHT!" I said.

"OMG! That's great Cassie! I knew you still liked him."

I giggled, "Yeah. I will tell you what how the date goes tonight. I promise. I will tell you EVERY little detail."

Spencer said, "You better!"

We both started to laugh.

"Bye Hun!" I said.

"Bye! Have fuuuuuun!" She hung up the phone.

I started to pick out what I could wear. I grabbed out a pink and brown short sleeve shirt. Then I picked out light blue jeans.

I called my aunt and told her. She said she would be home by 7:00 and will take me over at 7:30. Aunt Christina was very happy for me. I promised her she wouldn't tell Will.

Aunt Christina took me over. Joey was already there with our table.

We said our hellos and our how are yous. We order our drinks and foods.

"So, what classes are you taking for high school?"

"I'm taking CP Science, CP Math, Honors English, Honors Spanish, CP History and Gym. For my electives I am taking Creative Writing and Computers."

He laughed, "Wow your smart!"

I laughed along with him. I laid my arm down on the table. Joey looked down and stared in horror.

"Ca…Cass…Cassie, why are there deep scabby cuts on your arm and wrist?"

SHIT! My luck isn't it? I need to make up an excuse, QUICK.

I looked down, "Um... Um… Spencer's cat! Yeah her cat! He doesn't like people, so he scratched me. Dumb cat." I laughed nervously. I put my arm under the table.

"Oh, sure." I know he doesn't believe.

"Cassie!" I heard someone scream. It was Will.

"What the hell is he doing here?" I said under my breath.

Will came over to my table and said, "Cassie, you have to come home! The FBI is there. They found your dad."

"Oh… oh... ok," I looked at Joey who was staring at me and then Will then to my arm, which was under the table. "Hey I'm sorry Joey. I really need to go. It's important. We can drive you home if you want."

"No it is ok. I can call my mom." Joey said. He looked very uncomfortable.

I gave him a small smile, "Ok, I had a wonderful time. Thanks." I got up and hugged him. He hugged me back. I could hear Will huffing and puffing impatiently.

"Come on Cassie!"

"I'm coming, hold on!" I snapped at him. "I will call you tonight. Bye Joey."

Me and Will exited Applebee's. Why did my perfect date have to be ruined?

I hope you enjoyed this! I'm sorry I took so long to update. High school, its so hard. Haha! Thank you to all my reviewers:) You guys are the best! haha:) Please review.
