"I - I want to apologize about earlier. I've been talking with Felicity, trying to figure out a way to explain to you why I butted in," Paige faded off, looking uncomfortable.
"You don't have to apologize..." Cassie began.
"Yes, I do. That was a private moment, and I stupidly thought I was saving you from a situation you maybe didn't want to be in."
"I don't know if I didn't want to be in that...situation," Cassie whispered. "I've been thinking about it all afternoon."
"Can I tell you something?" Paige asked.
Cassie nodded her head.
"Before I came here, I attended a school on the coast. I was...a different person then. Wild, you could say. I certainly wasn't Prefect material then. I snuck out at night, broke the rules, dated guys I shouldn't have. It wasn't that I didn't care about getting hurt, I just didn't know that I could," Paige swallowed, pausing to gather her thoughts.
****Paused for lunch....let me know what you think of this! ******
