"Vintage tee you got on?" "and you have a brand new phone Mrs. Morrow" Susannah laughed and Cassandra smiled as she shook her head "it's Gallagher-Morrow, remember that love!" Susannah smiled at her, Cass looking down with a small laugh.

Susannah enjoyed the moments with her friends. She really did.

Cass smiled slightly as she broke the silence "Luke hasn't called in 3 weeks." "What?" Laurel loudly asked, and Cass sighed "I don't know I- it just has been so awkward last time we talked and then- then he never called back." "somethings going on" Susannah exclaimed, and Laurel nodded.

Cass sighed gripping her car keys standing up "well, we will find out I guess." "Hope so" the girls said in a chorus. As cass said goodbye to everyone of them, and walked out.

She sat inside her car and laid her head on the steering wheel, as her phone rang. She picked it up "Cassandra Morrow" "Mrs Morrow. We want to inform you your husband has been injured and will be brought to a hospital in Chicago as soon as possible" she felt her heart break "when can I see him?" "Tomorrow morning" and with that she ended the call.

Her heart racing she started the car and Sped home, she ran up the stairs and began searching through the drawers. She couldn't find it. The paper. Her hands found themselves in her hair.

"Fuck." She whispered, in the corner of her eyes a picture of her and Luke. "FUCK!" She loudly exclaimed, going through every drawer, ripping out every clothing piece laying in there.

She looked in their bedside tables, everywhere.

As she sat on the floor, her heart beating fast, her face tear streaked. She took out her phone and googled, Jacob Morrow

There.
There he was, a stone fell off her heart. There was her husbands brother, and his Address.

First thing in the morning, drive there.

And since Cassie had a hard time sleeping without Luke beside her, she took one of his shirts and hugged it. In hopes he would be alright.

Because she needs him to live.

She woke up, dressed, and got in the car, Eminem playing loudly as she drove to the address.

She knocked on the door, the door opening revealing... An older man.

"Yes? What- no I'm not interested in prostitution service" he was about to shut the door on her.

She put her foot between the door, looking at him she smiled "I'm Cassandra Morrow. Your sons wife." "my son married a prostitute?" "no. Formerly known as Cassandra Gallagher." she said her face had a sour look. He turned white as he stopped trying to close the door.

"Cass... I remember you" he nervously said, "what happened to my son-" "He got injured, call his brother and hop in my car-" "I can-" "no. Call him." she looked at him and he nervously nodded.

She scoffed walking toward her car and sitting in it. Reapplying her lipstick as she waited on her father-in-law. "Prostitute? These are really the fuck does he think he is?" she said under her breath,

Her car door opened and the man sat beside her. He buckled himself up a bit scared, she turned the music louder and played cleaning out my closet, by Eminem.

He listened to the music  as she began driving, until he got scared as he started rapping Cass chuckled. As they drove and she sang the lyrics he just stares at the street scared.

She gripped the steering wheel as they pulled up to the hospital, parking her car and her father in law basically jumped out.

She scoffed stepping out locking the car and walking in with him, straight to the room. "Oh luke!" She exclaimed basically running to him, giving him a kiss on the lips as he smiled, until it faded as he looked at his dad.

"I'm proud of you, you got a purple heart." "mhm" "really luke-" Luke simply didnt respond.

"I'm happy you and Frankie at least are alright-" "Cass... Did nobody tell you?" He looked nervous as she shook her head. "Frankie.. Died." Her expression fell. The door opened, Luke's brother running to him. Cass stood in shock excusing herself walking out.

She couldn't breathe. Her best friend was dead. He was killed. He died while he fought. He didn't get to marry his girlfriend. He didn't get to see her happy.

Frankie was dead, and he took a piece of Cassandra Gallagher with him.
