Cass was on lunch break. She felt sudden relief from it all. She had collapsed during class again, for the third time that week. A sign showing she's being overworked or she was overworking herself. She kept on going though. She had Ty to think about.
She walked further on the streets, and it seemed no one was around. She was just turning the corner when she bumped into someone.

Jay was walking down the street, toothpick hanging out of his mouth. His hands were shoved in his brown leather jacket, and he wasn't paying much attention to anything. He was up for a little fun, but wasn't sure where to begin. After all, it'd been ten years.
"OOF!" He grunted when he bumped into someone. His toothpick fell to the ground. He looked at the woman who'd bumped into him. "Sorry...." he said, then trailed off. This chick looks vaguely familiar... "Um...have we met?" he asked.

Cass felt slight deja vu when she grabbed onto the man to keep him from falling, much like when she met Jay. "Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry, I wasn't paying attention!." She looked at him and he looked familiar.
"Um...have we? You look familiar." She had a look of confusion as her hands kept resting on his arms. "I'm Cassandra. Cass for short. Or Sandra, I suppose, though no one uses that one. How about you? You look like you could be a Jason? Sorry...long day at work. Pardon my rambling."

When she told him her name, he KNEW it was who he'd thought. He smiled. "Cass," he said calmly. "You hit it dead on. My name is Jason. Jason McRae, but you can call me Jay..."
He gently touched her cheek. "It's been a long time, hasn't it, Cass? You know, it's been what? Over 10 years?" He smiled again, knowing that his fake front was bound to work, just as it had eighteen years ago...

Cass gasped. It was Jay?! She stared at him for a moment and hardly caught his words. Despite the fact that she had felt there was something good inside Jay, she couldn't help but feel afraid. She needed to get a grip on herself.
Cass slowly stepped back. "Yes, it has been over ten years. When did they let you out of jail? And what do you want with me this time?"

"Not long ago actually," Jay answered, then paused. "Well, It's actually a surprise to see you here. I wasn't expecting it."
His tone softened. "Look, I know I wasn't a great person towards you, but it's been 10 years. Can't ya give a guy another chance?" He gave her a hurt look. This was going to be TOO easy.

Cass looked at him with slight disbelief. "How can I give you another chance? Have you really changed that much since we've been apart?" She looked at him. "I mean, you kidnapped me and tried killing my son. Why would I give you another chance after that?!"
The look on his face was what sold her. The hurt look as if he regretted everything he did. "Y-You're serious, aren't you? You really want to start over?"

Jay was practically laughing. I can't believe it. She's no different than she was 18 years ago! "Yes, Cass. I want to start over. I regret everything I did to you. I want to make it right."
He looked at her. "You're just as beautiful as you've always been," he said softly. Not to mention just as gullible. "Cass, will you give me another chance?" With that, he leaned in and gave her a soft kiss. "Please?"

Cass blushed at what Jay said and she looked him in the eye. "Prove it to me," she said softly. Though her guard was slowly melting as she kept looking at him.
Cass returned the soft kiss and said softly, "Okay...how do you want to start this?" She held his hand, and gave him another soft kiss. She couldn't believe what was happening. What would Ty think?

"How to start? I have no idea, to tell you the truth," he said as he took her hand. "I've been away for a long time. That can change a guy." He grinned.
He returned the kiss before pulling away and looking her in the eye. He flashed that same mischievous grin he'd had since he was a kid. "I know a good place," he said, wrapping his arms around her, kissing her deeply.

Jay grinned and Cass felt like she would fall right at that very moment. He might have changed, but it most definitely had not been by looks. "Me neither..." She replied.
Jay kissed her deeply and she was surprised at first but then returned it, wrapping her arms around his neck. When they broke apart, she whispered, "I love you."

Jay smiled at her again. "So...what do you want to do? I can walk you home, or back to work, or wherever...." He suggested, looking deep into her eyes.
It felt good to have Cass in his arms again. Falling right into his trap, yet again. "I love you too," he said softly...

Cass looked at her watch. "I should get back to work. I work at the hair salon about two blocks from here. Want to come?" She smiled.
Cass stopped when he said that he loved her too. Her heart skipped a beat. "Really? You really love me?"

"Sure, I'll come," Jay answered. "I don't have any plans for today." He put his arm around her and started walking with her, already forming a plan.
"Yes, Cass," he whispered, "I love you. Really. I always have, I guess I was too blinded by my selfish ambitions to realize it. I'm glad you found room in your heart to forgive me." Sucker.....

Cass felt Jay's arm around her and she felt safe with him there. Though her mind was asking her if she was forgiving him too easily. She shook the thought away and listened to him talk. It nearly brought tears to her eyes so she snuggled against his chest. "I knew it. I just knew you weren't really like that..."
Soon they got to her work and she stopped. "Well, here we are. Will you be here when I get out in a couple of hours?"
