Cassie had all but accpeted that her date for the evening would be either Mary, Caroline or Meredith. Not even for a moment had it crossed her mind that Caleb would buy her basket. Of course, she hoped he would. But, why would he? The prize was to go on a date and as far as she knew, he had no interest in going on a date with her. Of course, Cassie had still dressed up for the event, to make sure that she was presentable enough should she bump into the object of her affections following her date. She wore an off shoulder, chiffon, printed maxi dress. Something comfortable, yet dressy enough for the occasion. Humming along to the songs on the screen, the raven haired beauty was wrapped in a blanket, waiting for her date to appear. She had no idea when they would appear, she had kind of just taken it upon herself to find a spot, and claim it.
Her basket lay at the front of the blanket, filled to the brim with packets of gummy bears, with a couple of packs of love heart sweets dropped in there for good measure. The young witch also brought a polaroid camera, to capture memories of the night. A pair of mittens lay at the side of the basket, Cassie knowing that it would likely get cold later on, so she may need them - especially since she wouldn’t have anyone to cuddle up to. God, she felt pathetic. It really didn’t help that she was surrounded by various other couples, all enjoying their dates while she still waited for hers to show.
For the first time in ages, Caleb was nervous. A real life kind of nervous, not a supernatural nervousness. He hadn’t asked a girl out in a very long time, and he’d never even bothered to take part in this stupid bidding thing before. But....that was before he’d decided to finally tell Cassie how he felt about her. Bidding on her basket felt pretty weird, but he was relieved that he’d saved enough of his earnings to the side for this event. Wearing a suit jacket with a smart shirt and jeans he stood alone, looking out at the crowds of people. He wasn’t sure how formal or casual it would be, but it looked like he’d chosen a safe look.
Holding a bouquet of pink roses he looked down at them with a small sigh. It seemed like a bit of overkill but...he wanted this to be special. He didn’t want to just be friends anymore - as incredible as her friendship was, he’d had his eyes opened to just how much he adored the raven beauty. As his eyes finally found her he could feel the fluttering in his stomach, forcing his usual gentle grin to his lips as he approached where she sat. “Miss Sulez?” he asked playfully, the mere sight of her giving him a silent boost of confidence. “Now I wish I’d gotten prettier flowers....though I doubt any could do you justice.” God that was terrible Caleb. Just awful.
