Ramon didn't know how to answer that question, it was like he wanted to cry because he missed her, but he didn't ever want to go back because of all the pain she made him go through, but that's s story for next time. Cass and Lucas began talking with each other. When Cass talked to Lucas, it was like no one else was there, just the two of them. She tried not to make it seem obvious that she was nervous every time she talked to him, she would try and control her breathing, but that would only make breathing harder for her. She would try to distract herself by controlling her blinking, but that would make seem odd.

"Are you okay?" Lucas asked her, Cass sat up straight and nodded.

"Sorry, I was just..." Cass said, trying to think of an excuse.

"It's okay, I get nervous talking to you too," Lucas told her, smiling at her so she wouldn't feel bad. Cass smiled at Lucas, she felt comfortable, almost as if Lucas were to have given her a hug.

"Lucas, I still need to tell you that one thing..." Cass said, after taking a deep breath.

"What is it?" Lucas asked her.

"When I talk to you, I feel like I want to talk to you forever, but I'm afraid if I talk for too long, my heart will explode from all these emotions. You make me want to cry from happiness because of how amazing you are. The way I feel towards you is inexpiable, but all I know is that I don't feel this way around anyone else." Cass said to Lucas. Lucas stayed silent for a couple of seconds, he didn't know what to say.

"I'm- I'm sorry..." Cass got up from her chair, ready to go.

Lucas grabbed Cass arm and told her the truth, "Cass, I feel the same way. You make me the happiest person alive whenever you're around. It's like I want to spend the rest of my life with you." Cass kept on smiling, she wanted to cry, but for the first time, out of happiness. It was a new feeling. it was like a light red, it makes you feel joy but also love. All those years of being blue, she finally felt different, but not completely different. She wasn't orange yet, she wasn't the complete opposite of blue. At least, not yet. It was almost time to leave, so everyone began packing up. Once everyone got there things and/or put back what they borrowed, they headed out the door. Halfway to their destination, they separated into two groups, Travis and Kanna went off to the busses after saying goodbye, and the rest were headed off to the pickup area. Once they got to the pickup area, Kaili and Ramon said goodbye, since they were going to walk home. Cass and Lucas were left alone to wait.

"Cass, about earlier... um, I wanted to know if you wanted to go out or something..." Lucas asked Cass.

"I'd love that..." she looked away to see that her mom, "I have to go now though."

"Okay, Saturday, 6:00 p.m. at the Cinema, okay?" Lucas said.

"Again, I'd love to." Cass said, hugging him, "See you there." She kissed him on the cheek and left.

"G-goodbye..." Lucas said, shocked at what had just happened.
