Her Fear Of Falling Again

Chapter 34

How the hell did he find me thought Cassie. She still felt like this whole thing was a dream. She couldn't believe Sebastian was actually here in England, where she was working. How did he know where exactly to find her? How did he even get on set? What made him suddenly decide she was worth it and wanted to get back together? Seeing him reminded her of how he dropped her off at her apartment the last time and never looked back. He had completely cut her off, showing her he was completely done and that everything they had meant nothing to him. She was done crying and mourning their relationship. She was in a good place now and then he decides to start things up again just because he wants to? Cassie was mad and was not having it.

"Hey, are you okay?" Michael asked as he made his way into her trailer. It was now midnight and they had just wrapped up for the day. Cassie was sitting in front of the mirror, removing her makeup. "I can't believe he had the audacity to show up here like that," Cassie says throwing the used makeup wipes into the bin next to her. "I know, that had me stumped too," Michael says as he walked over to her and towers behind her, as she sat at the table continuing to remove her makeup. "What did he want?" He asked her almost timidly, as he watched her through the mirror. Cassie stopped what she was doing and looked up at him through the mirror. 

"He wanted to get back together." She says. 

"And is that something you want?" He asked her. "NO!" Absolutely not!" She states harshly as she stood up from the chair and walked across the trailer. "He wanted this, he dumped me and he told me exactly what our relationship meant to him, by disappearing on me. He doesn't get to come back now and expects everything to go back to normal. I'm done." She says angrily as she paced around the tiny space.

"Do you want to get out of here and go back to my place?" Michael asked her as he walked over to her and embraced her in a hug. He had a flat in London just like every other celebrity did. "Yes please," she says, voice muffled in his sweatshirt.

The Next Day

"Sebastian, It's so nice to see you." Tom greets Sebastian as they sat outside the coffee shop for some breakfast. I don't know what you wanted so I just ordered some coffee for you first." Tom says. 

"No, it's fine, coffee's good. Sebastian says as he poured some of the coffee from the coffee pot into his cup.

"So,  I heard that you and Cassie are not together anymore, I hope it's okay that I still cast her. She's a really good actress." Tom says.

 "Yea of course it's fine. I'm happy for her." Sebastian says as he sipped on his coffee. "Thank you for even letting me come to your set and see her," Sebastian says. "Well you and I go way back, so you know I would do anything you need me to. As long as it doesn't get in the way of my movie, I'm fine" Tom says.

"Is she and Jordan a serious item?" Sebastian asked him, trying to sound as casual as possible. "I honestly had no idea they were even seeing each other. Where did you hear this?" Tom asked, completely taken by surprise at this revelation.

"I saw them making out yesterday," Sebastian says. "Wow! These things really just go over my head, heh," Tom says still processing this news.

"Hey, I'm having a small dinner tonight with the cast, why don't you come," Tom says. Sebastian instantly lit up. The chance to be near Cassie again and actually speak to her in a setting where she won't run was what he needed. "Can you sit me next to her?" Sebastian asked eagerly.

"What?" Tom asked in a tone that indicated he thought the request was ridiculous.

"You said you'd do anything for me, I just need your help to make sure she sits next to me. I just want to talk to her." Sebastian says.
