that. He laced his fingers together and put them behind his head and looked up to the ceiling, still pacing. Shit! Well, he blew it. Defeated, he rushed air out of his lungs and headed towards the door when he heard Lyla speak again.
    “Oh well, Chrissy. I guess Casey will just have to move on and deal with her heartache by drowning her sorrows in a milkshake down at Nick’s. Poor Case. Down there all by herself.”
    He stopped dead in his tracks and gave a head turn towards the girl at the desk and grinned. Lyla was good. Sneaky but good.
    Carter darted out the door and headed back to get his car so he could get down to Nick’s Burgers to see if Casey was still there. Would she even talk to him if he approached her? That was the question. He was about to find out.
    Carter made his way into Nick’s Diner and looked around for Casey. As soon as he made his way down where all the tables were lined left and right, he was approached by four giddy girls. He couldn’t even move due to their proximity. One spoke as the other giggled.
    “Oh. My. God. You are Carter London from Dare! We have seen you guys perform the last few weeks. We can't get enough of you guys,” the leggy blonde said to him winking. One of the girls put her hand on his ass and he jumped slightly at the unexpected touch. He moved out of the way of the over-friendly entourage. He saw out of the corner of his eye Casey sitting with her arms folded glaring at him biting the inside of her lip. Another girl stood in front of him and brazenly grazed her hand across his crotch. He shuttered at the feeling and knew he needed to get out of this situation before he missed any chance to make things right with Casey. He stepped back away from them, eyes still focused on Casey.
    “Girls, I have to go meet someone but we are playing next Thursday and Sunday at Beach Bums. Come out again and we can finish where we left off.” He had no idea why he said that. He could kick himself. He had no intention of starting anything with them, or finishing anything with them for that matter.
    Carter squeezed by the girls and approached Casey who had fire in her eyes and not the good kind, full passion or desire. Dagger, angry type fire. He stood at the other side of the booth and closed his eyes tight and opened them before he spoke.
    “Casey, I can expla…” She put her hand up to stop him even before he said the rest of his sentence.
    “Save it, Carter. For the sake of me and your little gang of groupies. I obviously rank even lower than them.” She picked up her strawberry shake and sipped it then looked back down to the celebrity trash magazine she was reading.
    “Groupies? What? You mean those girls? That’s not why I’m late. I fell asleep. I was ready early and I sat on the sofa and fell asleep.” She still didn’t move. “ Do you think I was with a girl and that’s why I didn’t show up? Casey, please look at me.”
    She looked up reluctantly. “ It really doesn’t matter what I think you were doing. This isn’t going to work.” She motioned her hand back and forth between the both of them.
    “I got stoned. Fell asleep. Got woken up by my roommate, ran to your dorm, then to my car, then drove here. I’m sorry. I screwed up.”
    She crossed her arms over her chest and sighed.
    “Stoned. Nice. Couldn’t you stand to stay clear headed on our date? I mean I know you're some rock star but really? Give me a break.” She said it sarcastically. They stayed silent for a bit. She couldn't help but look at his pleading eyes. Then she spoke.
    “ Business major, huh?”
    He looked up dazed and confused. Was she taking this where he hoped it would have been taken, if he hadn’t been so stupid as to be late for their date?
    “You mean about me being a business major? Oh yes, that's what I’m studying. If this music thing doesn’t work out I need something to fall back on. I mean, I’d like it to work out.”
    “You love music a lot don’t you?” she
