" Salty Goodness"


Everyone was now out of the water and the guys were getting seriously into their dance sequence.

Cassidy and Becca were out of their wet clothes and were sitting down to watch the boys dance or as Cassidy put it, getting some eye candy.

“I can’t believe I missed you putting sand down Brian’s pants..” Cassidy laughed.
“I know it was classic! But I am kinda glad I missed Nick pulling the string of your bikinis!” Becca laughed.

“Hey! Not funny…do you know how embarrassing that was!” Cassidy said with a hint of a smile.
“What’s happening with you and Nick anyway?” Becca asked.

“He’s going out with Mandy…" Cassidy said quietly.
“You really like him huh?” Becca said.
“Is it that obvious? Anyway I’m going to dinner with Kevin tonight...” Cassidy continued.
“What!?” Becca asked confused.

“Yeah, I don't know..may as well give it a go.” Cassidy said looking up to watch the boys start their dancing.
"I suppose so..." Becca looked up also curious at to whether Brian really could dance. She laughed to herself.

“Brian can dance!”
“Kevin is a hottie..but it's just...” Cassidy mused as they watched the boys bodies move to the music.

“So you and Brian are a thing now?” Cassidy asked, grinning as she watched Nick make a mistake.
“What do you mean ‘a thing’?” Becca asked turning back to Cassidy.
“Well has he asked you out yet..?” Cassidy asked also returning her gaze back to Becca.

“Well no….but..” Becca started.
“What! But I thought…” Cassidy said shocked.
“What? You don’t have to ask each other out to be going out…..do you?!” Becca asked quieter.
“I don't know...” Cassidy shrugged playfully.
“Your playing...” Becca playfully shoved Cassidy
“What! I’m just saying!” Cassidy laughed, holding her hands up in defence.

“It would be nice to know how he feels about me…and whether this is just a fling to him!” Becca thought to herself.

“Come on, they’ve finished dancing…” Becca said, not telling Cassidy her last thought. She got up and held her hand out to help Cassidy up of the ground.

“Good work guys! That's a wrap! If you want to see the first cuts of the video…Nigel is showing it soon..” Fatima said, smiling. They had worked hard this afternoon and the dance sequence looked really sharp.
The girls walked over to where the guys were talking. Nick casually put his arm around Cassidy’s shoulders.

“Nick you’re all wet!” Cassidy said squirming
“So I am…” He said giving her a hug so that her clothes were now damp.
“Nick get off me!” Cassidy shoved playfully.

Brian came up behind Becca and wrapping his arms around her waist.
“ This can’t be just a fling..” She thought to herself.
“So you can dance..” She smiled, content for him to just hold her forever.
He grinned.
“Yes, well...it was a little hard when I'm sure there's some sand still down my pants!”
She laughed and they all walked over to where Nigel was setting up the video.

Sarah, Nicki and Hannah were already sitting down, ready to watch the video. Although because Nigel was now sitting down too there was only six chairs left. They looked at each other.

“Oh looks like one of you will have to stand….” Sarah said in a sickly sweet voice.
“I don’t mind...” Becca said smiling at Sarah.

“Here Bec...” Brian said motioning Becca towards his lap.
Becca grinned and sat on Brian’s lap, watching to see what Sarah’s reaction would be.
Brian pulled her closer to his body and she leaned against his chest.

“That should be me...” Sarah thought bitterly to herself.
They all watched the clips of the video which looked awesome. They discovered that their ‘water fight’ had been filmed and that Nicki, Hannah and Sarah were only in a couple of scenes.

“Your lucky they didn’t shoot your top falling off Cassidy..” Nick smirked.
“Falling off!! Right...I haven’t forgotten that Carter!” Cassidy said pulling Nick closer to her.
“Prepare to feel pain..” She said.
“Looking forward to it…” He grinned.

At the same moment Mandy walked in and saw Cassidy pull Nick closer to her body.
“That bitch!” She thought to herself.

“Nick what are doing...” Mandy spat angrily, mumbling some nasty words under her breath.
“What did you call me!?” Cassidy replied insulted.

“Here we go…” AJ groaned.
“Oh shutup AJ!” Mandy glared at AJ then back at Cassidy. Cassidy looked at Nick knowing his reaction would show how he really felt about her.
“Touchy aren't we...” AJ mumbled under his breath.

“What do you think you're doing?!” Mandy once again spat at Cassidy.
“Are you serious? I wasn't doing anything you psyco..” Cassidy said dryly looking to Nick for a response, to back her up, to tell Mandy to get lost, anything...

“Guys calm down.…come on Mandy let’s go. You’ve had a long day. Why don’t we just go back to my place sweetie?” Nick walked over to Mandy's side, avoiding Cassidy’s eyes, knowing he had truly blown anything he could have with her at that moment, but not knowing what else he could have done.

Cassidy watched sadly as the pair walked off together, heartbroken at what Nick had just said. Kevin came and put his arm around her.

“You ok...” He asked kindly.
Cassidy shrugged in reply.
"Still hungry?" He asked casually.
Cassidy snapped back, aware that a gorgeous guy was asking her out to dinner.
"Yeah..sure, let’s go...” She smiled.
“Becca you’ll be alright won't you?” Cassidy turned and asked her friend.
“Sure…have fun!” Becca smiled and waved Cassidy and Kevin goodbye.

Meanwhile in the girls trailer

“Did you see those two before??” Sarah asked discussed.
“Come sit on my lap…” Nikki imitated Brian.
“Give up Sarah, he seems to really like her...” Hannah butted in.
“Oh shutup!” Sarah spat.
