Cassie was only two hours old when she was put into foster care. Her father died before she was born and her mother killed her self after Cassie was born.
Cassie's been in and out of different foster homes all her life, once in a mental institution...
I was in my room deciding on what to wear. As I take a final scan I smile and grab my outfit.

(Cassie's outfit without the hat and purse)
I get dressed in record time. Caleb said to grab a bag so I did and put some sweats and a tank top in it, I grab my ID, phone, wallet, and a hair brush. Right as I finish my phone dings.
'Hey it's Caleb come outside'
I smile and climb out my window. It was past curfew so I made sure my door was locked. When I reach the front I look around and see Caleb. On a motorcycle. With an extra helmet.
"Seriously it's sundown it's freezing and you want me to ride this" he smirks and hands me the extra helmet, I smile and put it on getting on "let's go on an adventure" I smile and wrap my arms around his torso. Caleb smirk putting the plastic part down over his helmet. "Hold on tight baby girl" I feel butterflies in my stomach and I hold on tight as he flys off. I laugh smiling wide as we drive down open roads. I wrap my legs around his waist and lean back putting my arms up laughing as I feeling the wind flow through me.
Caleb smiles rubbing my thigh with one hand as he keeps driving "hold on" without hesitation he pops a wheelie making me cling to him.
After an hour ride of us laughing and him showing off we were in the Bronx. I lift the flapped of my helmet up "what are we doing here" he doesn't say anything and takes his helmet off his hair sticking up making me laugh. "Oh you think it's funny" he smirks and takes my helmet off making my hair fall in my face "jerk" i pour and he just laughs moving my hair out of my face "there now I can see that perfect smile"
I blush and look down while Caleb helps me off the bike. We hold our helmets and walk into a rundown building, we go all the way to the top and it's the most beautiful flat I've ever seen.

There were windows all around the walls showing the stars, the kitchen was beautiful and I walked upstairs as I set my bag and helmet down. The room was beautiful there were rose pedals everywhere and candles lit.

"I heard yesterday was your birthday" I feel calebs arms wrap around me from behind as I'm close to tears "you deserve something good in your life let that be your birthday" he kissed my shoulder and turned me around so I was looking at him with tears in my eyes "I know a lot about you Cassandra but one thing I don't understand is why you don't enjoy celebrating your birthday" tears where now streaming down her face and she hugged Caleb tight
"I'm sorry Cassie but I cant keep living like this home after home I'm sorry but I need to go back with my parents" Cassie reads the text confused and walks into her room she shares with her best friend since she's been at the home. She looks up seeing her hanging from the ceiling. Cassie sobs and screams dropping all her birthday cards.
"My bestfriend since I came to this home, she killed herself on my birthday" I whisper trying to hide my sobs. Caleb picked me up and walked downstairs setting me on the counter. He wiped my eyes and looked at me with a soft smile " how bout tonight we celebrate your birthday and tomorrow we visit her grave" Caleb walks to the fridge pulling out a chocolate cake with sloppy letter saying happy birthday.
I chuckle wiping my tears "this is great Caleb" I smile and lick some of the frosting off with my finger. "There's more where this come drones princess"
