The flirting was off the charts. Watching the two of them so cozy, Winston couldn’t help but frown a bit. No guy would be cool with his fiancée getting that close to someone else. Luckily, Connor didn’t catch the scene. Otherwise, Cassie would've been in a serious jam.
Cassie quickly covered Chloe’s mouth, giving her a playful wink and a nod to keep quiet. Chloe got the message instantly, blinking back in agreement. Cassie let Chloe go and plopped down next to her with a grin. Chloe chimed in, all smiles, “Connor knows how tight Cassie and I are, and he’s totally okay with it.”
Winston nodded, a little impressed, “Mr. Connor’s quite the understanding guy.” Cassie laughed, “Why should he care? I grew this rose myself and handed it to him, roots and all. If anyone should be miffed, it's me, hmph.”
Turning to Chloe, Cassie joked, “And if he ever treats you wrong, just ditch him. My arms are always open for you.” Chloe giggled, “I know, I know.”
Winston was finally catching on. Cassie and Chloe had been besties since forever. And Cassie had a thing for Chloe, at least back in the day. But, you know, the heart wants what it wants, and sometimes it’s not mutual.
