Chapter 107 - Showti
"What happened then?" He was dying to watch this conversation unfold but he didn't know if Katherine would be able to see him from where she was sitting.
"He called afterward but I didn't let him explain and told him I was going out on a date. I was so mad, Angelina. I don't know what ca over ."
"Did he say anything?" Angelina had not known about this part of the conversation.
"He said that he thought I was lying about who I was. That I had deceived him." There was a gasp from the other room which Cage knew ca from an infuriated Angelina.
"Girl, he did not!" She sounded angry. "How did you find him, though?" she asked suddenly, giving Cage whiplash.
"I was playing Return of the Heroes and this player kept fulfilling all my conquests before I could get there. Asked the server who the guy was and everyone pointed towards him. So, I sent him a ssage."
"And what would you do if he was an ugly bastard?" Angelina asked.
'That's a good question.'
"I have no clue who he is. I wouldn't care because I liked him. He made feel beautiful with his words and nothing else. I have never had anything of the sort happen to . I felt so special when I was talking to him…" Cage felt himself smiling. She… really did like him. Her feelings for him had been real.
"And did you act differently with him?"
"I don't understand." Cage sighed. He was trembling by that point. He knew that he had made the hugest mistake of his life by doubting her. He had not heard her answer and he knew exactly what it was going to be.
"How would I pretend to be sothing I am not? I liked him and I wanted him to like for who I was. I am not unconfident enough to think that I can't make a guy like with my personality."
'Your personality is alluring, you are right.'
"You really stord off the conversation, didn't you? Maybe he has sothing he has to say? There are always two sides to the story." Angelina coaxed.
"I wish that was the case. I have been waiting for his ssages all day, but I have been disappointed. It feels like he really did those things and he is hiding from ." He could hear a sob and he knew that he had fucked up. He should have called her way before, blasted her phone until she got tired. But he was so thankful that his friend had brought him there to talk to her face to face. He couldn't think of any other way to have found out so much about her.
He finally felt like he knew her.
"I feel like he was everything good about my day and I lost that…" Her sniffles beca more distinct.
He felt the exact sa way. His day began with her and ended with her and he wanted nothing more than to listen to her voice every free mont he had. Was that so wrong?
"Hey, out of the two of us… one got abandoned by their online boyfriend and the other was sexting a child."
She had been sexting the thirteen-year-old? Chris Hansen, where are you?
There was laughter heard through sniffles.
"Now that you ntion it. Your story is worse than mine!" she giggled. "What are you going to do about that?" Katherine asked softly.
"We are talking about you, now. What would you do if he was famous?" Pause.
"I know he is famous. He told himself and I don't mind it. If there was anything that I really disliked about him, I would have ghosted him."
He flinched and thanked the lord that had not been the case.
He heard another door open and knew it was Barry, the pervert.
"I'll get going now," he said sheepishly. He shook their hand one last ti and then went his way without turning back.
"I think you broke the guy's heart with your confession of undying love for Ray," Angelina laughed. Cage, too, was smiling now that the man was gone.
"I have a surprise for you in my room. An apology gift, if you may."
"I love you, Angel," he heard her say and then the padding of her feet against the floor. His heart thumped in his chest as he gazed at the little strip of light under the door. He moved away and sat on the edge of the bed, waiting for her to co to him.
The lock rattled and the door swung open. He saw her silhouette in the doorway and sat there stunned. Finally, the mont had co.
Her eyes adjusted to the darkness and she could see a man sitting on the bed. Her breath hitched as she glanced back at her friend in the distance, who had a wide grin on her face.
"There is a man in your room," she deadpanned, not knowing what to do with herself.
Was her friend giving her a man for a present so that she could forget about Ray? She wouldn't put it past her friend to do that, in all honesty, and she was almost frightened that it was the case.
"Turn on the light," Angelina said with a wink.
She did so dumbly.
Gaze looked at her stunning form. Her eyes widened and she stopped dead in her tracks when she saw Cage.
"Cage?" she whispered and lurched back, her body swaying with shock. "You found Cage Cavanaugh?"
