"Cepheus, I have to- oh." Cassia stopped herself in the middle of rushing into his old house that he was in. She hadn't kicked him out, but he had to grab some things and ended up just staying there because the thing he had to download onto his hard drive wasn't going to be complete until the following day, which was today.
Awkwardly standing a little ways away from the front door, Cassia eyed Cepheus' friends who were all looking at her. Closing the door, she clutched her purse while moving a piece of her hair out of her face.
"You okay? What happened?" He asked with concern all in his voice, placing down the controller that he had in his hand. Blowing a breath out, Cassia walked closer towards him before leaning down to give him a small kiss, catching him completely off guard since she hadn't been the one to initiate any affection in a while, but he didn't hesitate to kiss back. Not paying any mind to the other men in the room who looked at them.
"I need to talk to you, and it's very important and very urgent because I'm kind of freaking out right now. And I don't want to have a panic attack, and I'm being very dramatic but I can't help it." She spoke in a volume so only Cepheus could hear, another wave of concern washing across his face before he stood to his feet.
Grabbing onto her hand, he gave her a kiss on her forehead to try and calm her down a little bit before eyeing everyone else. "Imma be back in a minute." He said, all of them nodding without any added commentary.
Turning around, Cepheus switched the hand he held hers with before making his way towards the stairs. They walked to the second floor in silence, since neither of them felt like going all the way to the 4th floor into his old room. Stepping to the side, he allowed Cassia to walk in first with him following behind her, making sure to close and lock the door shut. Walking past her pacing body, Cepheus sat down on the bed without saying anything, just waiting for her to explain whatever it was that had her like this.
"Okay so long story short, I went to talk to the therapist-."
"Erin?"
"Yes, yes her. And I probably should have talked to you first before I just went and started spilling all our business, but it's okay because it's all confidential. Doesn't matter, but thought you should know. Anyways, we talked for some time, and then she started to you know..." Cassia waved her hand for him to finish for her, being that she couldn't find the right word.
"...Do the therapy? I don't know what word you looking for baby." Throwing her head back groaning, she only waved it off because that didn't matter. "And you plan on stopping with the pacing or-."
"No!" She yelled, immediately apologizing because she didn't mean to. "I'm sorry. Look, long story short, she opened my eyes to a lot of stuff. And I'm sorry for all of this 6 months waiting shit when I know and have known you've been trying since I let you back in and allowed you to show and prove to me that you have changed. Yes I was upset, but it blindsided me from all of the maturity and growth that you have had. In one of the little sorry cloud things, you apologized for not being the man I need you to be, but you are. And you have been for a very long time, and I shouldn't have allowed 1 situation that crept back on you from 5 years ago to shift my focus from all of that." She spilled out, though her thoughts were barely together.
