Secret

Teen romance

Izzie was still asleep when Casey woke up. Casey took this as an opportunity to write about yesterdays events in her notes. That she'll never let Izzie read again.

"So, I really really like Izzie and I think she likes me too, I let her go through the notes from a couple days ago, thank god she didn't read the ones from the night after we kissed. About Evan, and her. And everything else.

I truly believe me and Izzie are endgame, right now we are still figuring things out but idk I just get this feeling around her maybe it's dumb idfk."

She stared at Izzie for a while.
"Watching me sleep, huh?" Izzie spoke sleepily.
"What? No?" Casey was startled.
"It's fine, I know I'm stunning."
"Don't flatter yourself, you're annoying." Izzie just rolled her eyes and turned over, facing away from Casey.

"Cmon, let's go for a run or something."
"I'm tired. Leave me alone."
"Someone's angry in the mornings."
"Sssshh let me sleep."
"Alright fine."

Casey figured Izzie had fallen back asleep so she lay next to her, izzie was facing away from her but Casey didn't mind, she just twirled izzies raven hair around in her index finger.

-knock knock-
Casey hopped out of bed and opened the door.
"Hey Casey do you want-"
"Sshh!" Casey pointed at the sleeping girl on the bed and Elsa nodded.
"Want some breakfast?" Elsa whispered.
"No I think I'm gonna take iz for coffee."
"Okay. Have fun." Elsa peered in the room as if suspicious of something.

She knew about Casey and izzie, and on some level Casey knew she knew, but they wouldn't talk about. Not till Casey was ready at least.

Casey showered and got ready in the bathroom, when she came out Izzie was awake and on her phone.
"Hey nerd, how'd you sleep?"
"Good thanks and You are not calling me nerd."
"Yeah I am." Izzie admitted defeat right away, she knew she was never gonna win this.

She continued scrolling for a minute and Casey stood next to her.
"Wanna go for coffee?"
"Yeah of course"

Izzie got up and went into the bathroom to change.
After three minutes Izzie came out of the bathroom. She was wearing a grey jumper and Nike pros.

"Let's go."
"Alright, Starbucks?"
"Yeah, sure. Even though it's like 20 minutes away."
"Stop complaining, let's just go."
"High maintenance." Casey muttered.
"Oh Shush, you're not funny"
"I in fact think I'm absolutely hilarious."

They went down the stairs and Elsa spoke up from the kitchen.
"You're finally up! Did you guys sleep okay?"
"Yeah, fine thanks."
"Yeah great, we're going." Casey grabbed Izzie by the hand and pulled her out the door.

"So, Newton."
"So, nerd."
"I don't respond to 'nerd'" Izzie rolled her eyes and got in the car.
"Ah, but you just did." Casey laughed and Izzie rolled her eyes.

"Anyway, what should we do today?"
"I have to study a little, but we can do something else if you want."
"No, Newton. You need to study mate, you're gonna fail and you'll get kicked out and I can't let that happen I need you."
"Oh do you now?"
"No, just need someone to complain about."
Casey gave Izzie a playful punch on the arm and pulled into the Starbucks parking lot.

They got their drinks, Casey knew izzies drink by heart.
"Casey why does mine say nerd?" Izzie displayed a cup that had 'nerd' written on the side.
"I guess even the Starbucks employees know you as nerd." Casey laughed.

"You did not just tell them my name was nerd!?"
"Oh but I did."
"Casey!" Izzie smacked Casey on the arm, Casey leant against the car and pulled Izzie towards her by the waist.

Izzie had mad butterflies, Casey had never done anything like this before. She loved it.

"You look pretty today." Casey spoke quietly and it was enough to make those butterflies curl up and explode into clouds of glitter.
