Spencer's POV
Billy was mad at me, but I was mad at him so it didn't matter.
I felt a cold wind in the air, at first I thought Billy was coming to apologize but then I realized he didn't probably know what he did wrong, and would probably never apologize anyways. He was too prideful.
I was right of course, not Billy, but the only other person I wanted to see less, Cassie Mathews.
"You okay Spencer?" She asked floating near me while I sat by the edge of the pool with me feet in the water.
"Not really," I looked at her and looked away, "why do you even care?"
"I care because Billy is my friend, you are Billy's, and any friend of his is a friend of mine." She smiled at me, I felt like I could trust her. "So, what's wrong Spencer?"
I decided to open up. "He knows that I've wanted to ask Mallory out for the longest time and every time I try to he always does something so I can't. And now that I actually did, he isn't even happy for me. He's supposed to be my best bro, but bros should be happy for each other." I sighed, looking at the pool again.
She started to smile. "Spencer, it's not that he's not happy for you. He's jealous."
I turned to stare at her, utterly confused. "What do you mean?"
"Isn't it obvious Spencer, Billy has a crush on you!" She continued to smile.
"Wait what?! So, lemme get this right, you're saying that my dead, male, cousin-"
"Distant cousin!" She interjected.
"Right. My dead, male, distant cousin, has a crush on me?"
"One of the biggest crushes I've ever seen!"
I was in shock, unable to respond. Billy, the self-obsessed former rock star had a crush, on me. I felt butterflies climb up in my stomach, he had a crush on me.
I must have started to blush because Cassie started to talk to me again. "You like him too, don't you?'
I didn't know how to answer her, but the flush in my checks and the feeling in my stomach said yes.
"I think I do," I smiled.
