Cassia's pov
“hey guys” I spoke quietly as willow turned to me “hey cassia” she spoke, gus smiled “nice to see you again” he added “yeah and hey I’m really sorry about….no contact” I spoke softly “no worries just glad your ok” he smiled slightly making me relax slightly and for the first time in a while I smiled and it was genuine “come on we should go were already almost late!” gus spoke “I think it would help if we knew where we were going” willow sighed “ where are y’all supposed to be going” I asked “a place called the game room” gus shrugged “oh! Yeah it’s an arcade I know where it’s at” I spoke “I can show you” I added “you sure you want to come? What about the shop?” gus asked “Sundays are usually slow honestly I don’t know why I even open on Sundays” I spoke sighing softly the pair nodded “come on let’s go” I added leading the way. “so how did you come up with you name?” willow asked “oh well….you helped a lot” I replied “me?” she questioned “yeah you got me into plants which I ended up going to school for here and then opened my flower shop cassia is a type of plant” I replied willow smiled “glad to see I rubbed off on you” she laughed “yeah” I smiled slightly before looking down "can i ask why did you cut us off? after hexside" gus asked "i don't know to be honest i just....i don't know i think i needed to figure things out on my own and just be alone for a bit ya know? i mean after everything...." i sighed softly. "well im glad you're here cassia and i know the others will be excited to see you again" willow spoke smiling slightly.
