Chapter 18

Cassandra tried to pull away but could not because Liam's hands were on both sides of her face holding it firm so she pushed him away with all the strength she had at that moment. When Liam finally pulled away and realized what he just did, he felt sorry and embarrassed.

"Cassandra... I...." Liam could not complete his statement because she left. So he stood there looking at where she was standing a while ago.

"Guy... What's up? L" James said as he and David stood beside Liam.

"You guys have been watching right? " Liam asked without looking at his friends.

"It's James' idea..." David said defending himself.

"Well as you can see, I succeeded in messing things up." Liam said looking vulnerable.

"So what are you planning to do?" James asked.

"I will think about what to do. Good night" Liam said and left.

"Just when I thought he will finally be happy..." David said and sighed like an old man.

Cassandra lied down and tried to sleep but she couldn't. Each time she try, she kept recalling what happened earlier.

"You pervert..." She said as she sat down feeling frustrated.

....

The next day, all the students went hiking... It was really fun but Liam was not himself. Cassandra has been ignoring him all day.

"Cassandra... Let's talk... Please..." Liam said when he finally got to be close to her. But Cassandra turned to leave.

"please listen to me...." Liam said holding her back.

"Ok..." She replied.

"Cassandra... You have every right to be mad at me... I shouldn't have done that, but... but I just couldn't help it. I really like you, but I shouldn't have done that without your permission.... I'm sorry" Liam said. But Cassandra remain silent and just looked away. It's obvious she so mad at him. Not knowing what else to do... Liam went down on one knee.

"I'm sorry Cassandra... Please forgive me...!" He exclaimed making all the students' attention to be on them.

"Mad.... Is that really Liam?" Some students whispered.

"Love can actually make people go crazy sha..." Some said.

Feeling shy Cassandra could only give in.

"Fine... I've forgiven you..." Cassandra managed to say.

"Really...?" Liam asked enthusiastically and she nodded. When he stood up.. He carried her in his arms and left immediately. Cassandra wish she could just disappear. Once they were alone, Liam put her down.

"I'm sorry... I only wanted you forgive me..." Liam said smiling... But his smile faded because she just looked at him for a while and left.

Liam was not himself through out the hiking period.

After the hike, Liam went to the studio and sat there feeling so lost and down...

"Guy... What are you doing here? Everybody is waiting for you to sing" David said as soon as he stepped into the studio.

"Don't think I'm in the mood" Liam replied with a sad tune.

"Still thinking about last night huh?" David asked.

"I don't even know what came over me" Liam replied. Then all of a sudden an idea popped into his head.

"Is Cassandra at the auditorium?" Liam asked enthusiastically.

"Yeah... I saw her with Gabriella" David replied feeling confused. Like what the hell is this psycho planing?

"What are you up to?" David asked. But Liam just zoomed out of the studio without replying.

....

"What's up with Liam..." Gabriella said.

"I don't know" Cassandra replied flatly and Gabriella could only gape, but before she would say something, she heard students cheering. Looking at the stage, he was right there. Cassandra don't know why but time seems to stop and heart started racing.
