"Aww, Mandie, nice of you to join us�I was waiting for you," Brad said and walked over to Mandie and put his hands on her hips.
"Why the fuck do you want her?" Mandie yelled in his face, "And how did you get out of jail?"
"I pulled a few strings," Brad cunningly replied and took his hands off her hips, "And there's something very important I have to tell you."
"Like what, bastard?" Mandie yelled at him again, not prepared for what he had to say.
"I wasn't lying about the Cass thing," he stated, letting his head sink a little, "I am in love with her."
Mandie had told Cass with her eyes and sent her out of the room without Brad seeing, "Oh damn Brad...I was hoping you'd say you loved me," she said and ran her finger up and down his chest.
"I...I do," he said getting a little excited.
Mandie had already talked to Lance about what she was about to do and if it was to save her and Cass he agreed. Mandie pushed brad into the bedroom and onto the bed. She pulled off his pants and his shirt and got on top of him. Slowly she pulled a pair of handcuffs out of her bed and locked his arm to the post and did the same to the other after she pulled the other pair of handcuffs, "Don't fuck with my friend's head...I don't like it...you broke my heart," she kissed his cheek and ran out the door where Cass was waiting in the limo.
"Shit," Brad muttered as his head hit the pillow and he shortly started to fall asleep.
Cass sat in the limo, curled up in the slight fetal position in the seat as Justin just sat there, looking at her, afraid to say anything since he was starting this "let's be nasty to Cass again" campaign. Mandie quickly crawled into the limo and smiled proudly, "Let's go."
"How'd it go?" Lance asked, putting his arm around her.
"Lets just say I still got it...I AM the most seductive lady in the world."
"And don't forget the most beautiful," Lance smiled and kissed her gently.
She was preoccupied while she was kissing him. They were all completely ignoring Cass, who was now hugging her knees to her chest, looking out of the window staring longingly at the passing scenery of Paris, probably wanting to just jump out of the car and fly away. Justin still didn't speak to her, I guess he thought he was too noble or something, she thought as they broke apart. Mandie asked Cass, "Are you okay?"
"No," Cass whispered quietly and turned to Mandie, taking her by surprise, "I don't think Brad was lying. He wouldn't try to fool us with something like that."
"Something like what Cass?" Justin and Lance got out of the limo when the arrived and Lance helped Mandie out. Lance and Mandie intertwined their fingers and she looked at Cass, "Well are you going to answer me?"
"He wouldn't say something like he did if he was trying to fool you," Cass said quietly, as for the guys not to hear her, "He's an honest person."
"Honestly a bastard," Mandie muttered quietly as she looked up at Lance, still signifying to her that she was angry with her from the previous encounter.
"He wouldn't! Don't you believe me?" Cass asked loudly as Mandie and Lance kept ignoring her, "Fine! Fuck you all! I'll just sit alone then."
"Do it without turning your fucking back on me yet again," Mandie said and walked to the seat where Lance was sitting and sat next to him putting her hand on his leg, "I love you," she smiled at him.
"I love you too baby," He said placing a quick kiss on her lips.
"I'm so glad that's over," Mandie sighed, trying not to think of anything that had to associate with her so called "friend". She wasn't even sure if Cass liked her anymore.
"Aren't you going to tell Cass to sit with us?" Lance asked with genuine concern for the younger girl.
"It's her choice. I can't force her to do anything else," Mandie said looking at Lance, "I mean, I love her with all my heart...but seriously, I don't think she really knows it."
"I'm sorry," Lance said.
"For what babe?"
"Meeting the women of my dreams, falling in love, and ruining her friendship with her best friend," he said looking down.
"You didn't ruin our friendship, sweetie," Mandie pulled his chin up and he had a sad look on his face, "She ruined our relationship, with the help of me being an asshole sometimes. It has nothing to do with you."
"But I feel like it's my fault, if you hadn't met me, none of this would have happened," Lance said again, letting his chin try to sink to his chest,
"Don't say that!" Mandie exclaimed, pulling his chin up again and giving him a sweet kiss on the lips, "If I never would have met you, I'd still be looking for my soul mate, and I might have went back out with Brad for god sakes. Would you really want that?"
"Of course not," he looked at her.
"Hell, I could of been dead by now if it wasn't for you... you don't know how much you have saved me... you helped me to stand up to my 'parents' and you loved me...I haven't been loved much...and you showed me people do love me...you're everything I wanted in a guy and maybe even more," she said and hugged him.
"I'm so glad I have you," he sighed in her embrace and she lightly leaned her head on his shoulder, quickly falling asleep. He smiled as he simply followed suit.
