"In her room," Justin said walking over to Lance and Mandie.
"Her room?"
"Yah she got her own room."
"Oh god," Mandie muttered, "Why would she go and do something like that?"
"She's confused and alone," Lance whispered down to her, "Unlike us. We're together."
"Sorry Lance, but that was bad timing," Mandie crawled her way out of his embrace and started to compose herself again, "I've got to go talk to her. I love you Lance," She said into his ear and she started to kiss his neck.
"I love you too."
"I've got to go talk to Cass," she whispered into his neck, "It's not like I actually want to go..."
"You're so mean!" Lance exclaimed, lightly pushing her away, "She's your best friend."
"I was kidding!" Mandie said defensively, "I need to go make her trust people again, but it might not be easy. You can come with me, Lance. Hey J, did Cass leave her bag here? I need to borrow a turtle neck."
"Yah," Mandie walked to the back room and grabbed Cass's light blue turtle. She walked to the bathroom and changed into it, "Boy, I'm glad Cass gets a size bigger in her shirts...so you wanna go Lance?"
"I shouldn't. You and her need to spend some time together."
"Ok...J, I want you outside her hotel door in an hour ok..."
"Fine."
"Just so you can go and tell her you love her and you two can make sweet passionate love!" she hit his head with the pillow, lightly sending him onto the bed.
"Very funny," Justin replied, brushing the fallen pillow off his face.
"Yeah, skip the passionate love and skip to hot sex!" Lance laughed along with Mandie.
"Lance! I'm surprised in you!" Mandie slapped his head lightly, shocked he was so *ahem* blunt.
"Hey, lets not get abusive."
Mandie shook her head, "Typical males...I shall depart...what is her room number, J?"
"205."
"Thanks", she smiled and turned to walk out the door, "Oh and if by chance you guys do hook up J," Mandie turned her head back to face his position.
"What?" Justin asked curious.
"Don't hurt her, she's been hurt enough," Mandie smiled and started to head to the elevator to Cass's room.
"Wow, she's amazing," Lance said quietly.
*Meanwhile*
Mandie got to Cass's floor and quickly found her room. She gently knocked on the door.
"I told you Brad leave me alone!" she yelled from her room.
"Well its kinda sad when you confuse your best friend for her ex," Mandie said into the door.
"Oh my god! I am so sorry Mandie, come on in," Cass opened the door to an angry face from Mandie, "What crawled up your ass?"
"Well, let's see, first of all my ex-boyfriend tried to kill me and all my friends again, threatened to come down here and fucking rape you, and to top it all off, you dismiss a guy that loves you away from you because you're too damn afraid to open yourself up to a person that really cares about you, that's about it."
"Justin doesn't love me," Cass shut the door behind the two of them, "He just wants to fool me."
Mandie smiled, "Oh fuck that's bullshit Cass," she shook her head, "He is madly in love with you...you just wont let him tell you...he wants to Cass."
"Whoa hold the phone...huh Brad did what?...and what about Justin?"
"Brad woke up from his little bang on the head and tried to kill me again. Luckily, your little phone call to Buster saved my ass and the other guys'."
"Okay, now I get that," she gave her a hug, "I'm glad you're okay."
"Cass," Mandie pulled away, "This isn't about me. This is about you."
"God, why does it always have to be about me?" Cass frustratedly questioned, "And what is this fake shit about Justin being in love with me?"
"Its not fuckin' fake ok...he truly loves you�but you don't trust people...I'm the only one you think you can trust and I'm fuckin' sick of it ok...you need to realize you and J should be together," Mandie said in a persuasive voice.
"No, come on Mandie, you need to realize! Justin hates me, he hated me at TRL, he couldn't have changed his feelings for me in that less of time. And you know he can't fall out of love with Britney in less than 1 day. I'd know. It's impossible."
"Hunny he has been out of love with Britney 4 months after they started dating..."
"Mandie, did you come here because Justin asked you or cuz you wanted to?"
"I came because I'm fucking sick of seeing you and Justin moping around!"
"Justin can't be moping around, he's got so many whores that would gladly fuck him for free if he would give them one half of a loving glance-"
"Damnit, Cass, you're so fucking stubborn!" Mandie grabbed her by the shoulders, "Do I seriously have to hit you for you to understand me?"
"Understand what? That he doesn't fucking love me? That he's trying to cover up his hurt for losing Britney and try to get a piece of ass from me? Well, he can just fucking forget it, cuz he ain't gettin it."
"Cass quit it...you are the only one who can not see he likes you!"
"Oh you're one to talk...you're only dating Lance for publicity!"
"That was way harsh Cass," Mandie ran out of the room and down the stairs where she quickly ran outside and hauled a taxi, "Take me to Hydrid Agency please," Mandie sighed as she slipped into the taxi. She was afraid Cass was throwing away her chance with Justin by being the way she was. Cass had built up a wall since Brad and she would barely even let it crumble around Mandie. Hopefully, Justin would change that.
