Although she let him go on, looking up only briefly every now and again, her attention was mostly focused on fixing herself a drink. This was so typical that her perspective wasn't even considered. How could he not see that him kissing Dom like that was not the same thing as her kissing Dom? She and Dom couldn't even be together but the same couldn't be said for Victor and Dom. And the way he let himself enjoy their kiss...Was there something going on between them that Cassie didn't even know about?<br/><br/>When Victor seemed to be done talking, Cassie finally looked up again, picking up the cocktail she had made, a bit too large for one a bartender should be making but hey, she would need it to face this problem. After taking a long drink of the oversized beverage, Cassie scanned Victor's face as if to ask if he was done and then sighed heavily.<br/><br/>"So tell me...When I speak, does everything I say just disappear into some black void?" Her Irish accent was heavily laced with the same sarcasm that showed in the scoff she let out as soon as she was done speaking and the eye roll that she took as she brought the drink to her lips again. However, as she brought the drink back down, her shoulders slumped just a little and the momentary glimpse in her eyes was one of apology. Even she knew that comment had been unhelpful.<br/><br/>"This is the second competition of Love Island and the second time a concern I've voiced has been used against me in a competition, Victor. I told you yesterday that I was worried because I wasn't your first choice. You already hurt one girl over another. And then today, you kissed Dom like you wanted her instead." Though her body language barely changed, her voice was cold and filled with anger, trying to keep the tears at bay. How could he have done this to her and not even thought about how she'd feel?<br/><br/>"I get that you had to kiss someone young and no, I'm not the youngest girl here..." She continued, the logic and understanding strongly overcome by the harsh numbness of her voice.<br/><br/>"...But no one ever said you had to suck her face off like you'd rather pick her tonight!" And just like that, the coldness and the distance turned into a near-scream at the last half of the sentence, punctuating the words 'suck her face off'. As it did, Cassie felt the sting of her emotions hit her eyes and something drop to her cheek. Her hand swiftly came up and harshly wiped it away just as quickly, however. And as if to hold back the rest of the tears, Cassie picked up the cocktail again, leaning her head just a bit back as she took yet another long drink from the glass. However, this time she didn't put the glass down when she was done, instead just crossing her free hand across her chest to hold the arm that held her drink.<br/><br/>"The reason that me kissing Dom is different than you kissing her is because I can't couple up with her. Even if I could, I wouldn't. As beautiful as women can be, including Dom, and as romantic as they can be, I'm not sexually attracted to them anywhere near enough to give you pause." Finally, Cassie stopped screaming. Unfortunately, the hurt that was the real problem showed through her words as she spoke, her Irish accent almost gone as she tried to make sure Victor could understand her.<br/><br/>"Besides, she's not the one I'm falling for..." She said quietly, before quickly shaking her head and moving on, trying to use her following words to cover up what she had just said. She didn't need to give him any more ways to hurt her in here, not when she was already hurting.<br/><br/>"You already knew my concerns Victor... You knew before you kissed Dom like that that I'm worried about being the next one you replace... You treat this like it's all just some logical bullshit, some game with rules and everything being the exact same... But I do have feelings here too, ya know... and I thought you respected mine..." Shaking her head and downing the rest of the drink, Cassie picked up her mask again, as shattered as it was at the point and shook her head.<br/><br/>"Carina was right..." The ginger exclaimed though the anger she tried to use only mixed with the hurt she felt rather than covering it altogether. She couldn't do this anymore... She couldn't finish this conversation with him, not here, not now. She couldn't let him see how much everything was bothering her right now. She needed to walk away before he got to see that. And that's exactly what she did.<br/><br/>Placing the glass on the counter, Cassie pulled her shoulders back and lifted her head high, walking away as quickly as she could without actually running. Don't let him see you hurt. As soon as she got close enough to the villa, however, she sped up, making her way back to the terrace. But as soon as she saw Carina sleeping there, she stayed in the women's changing room instead, letting the tears fall and the hurt express itself.<br/><br/>Eventually, she did find herself making her way out to the terrace, trying not to wake Carina. As much as Cassie appreciated the woman, she did deserve her rest. For at least an hour, Cassie just stared out over the backyard, looking at the happy couples, watching the singles and the unexpected couples, and looking down over Victor as she let herself process everything that had happened the last couple days until finally, the girls started coming up to get ready for the ceremony.<br/><br/><hr class="bbc-hr bbc-hr--3"/><div style="text-align: center"><i>End of Scene.</i>​</div><hr class="bbc-hr bbc-hr--3"/>
