Marcus’ heart began to race as soon as he noticed the serious expression lace the raven haired beauty’s face. He didn’t know what she was going to say, he didn’t even have a small idea. Teeth caught his bottom lip between them, chewing on it heavily as his gaze remained glued to her face. His breath hitched in his throat as she spoke, eyes wide and blinking. “Wait… You do?” An expression of pure disbelief was displayed on the male’s face, he had honestly had no idea.

Cassie couldn’t help the laugh bubble from her lips, as she looked at the male smiling. “Yes, of course I do. Were you really that oblivious to it?” She asked biting down on her lip to contain her smile. “Wait... Please tell me I haven’t just made a fool of myself and there is a mutual attraction?” The witch asked nervously thinking that she’d gotten it all wrong and the male didn’t share her feelings.

Jesse’s brows drew together as she questioned him. He tried, every time someone asked or he thought about the event, but each time he failed to recall any information about it. “The Order attacked me and I was hurt really bad – but, I don’t remember.” He pressed his lips together and let out a breath through his nose, eyes flickering to the floor for a moment before meeting her gaze again. He only had the story that people had told him, and if he was being honest with himself, he was beginning to doubt those stories. Or, at least, be less sure about them. He wanted to know for himself and not from other people. Confusion found its way to Jesse’s features. He knew that his being alive wasn’t a publicly documented thing, but he would have expected her father to know. “I would have thought he would know…” He mused. It was only because he knew her father’s position within the Death Eaters. “But I was out of it for a while,” he admitted. “I still am.” It had been years now, but that loss of memory was still difficult to process. And it had certainly made things more difficult while being held prisoner, too.

Cassandra nodded. “Well, that goes with what I had heard... I mean, other than the whole you being alive thing.” She gave a small awkward laugh. “So, what is the last thing you remember? Do you actually remember the order attacking you?” The raven haired female didn’t know what had her questioned her cousin but there was something that made her curious about the situation. A scoff left her lips. “It wouldn’t surprise me if he did. Maybe he knew but just didn’t tell me. It seems that my father keeps more secrets from me than I thought.” Her mind wandered to the fact she now knew she had a half sister. “So where have you been all this time?”

marcushastwonames:

“That’s dangerous, you know.” Marcus joked, laughing lightly to himself. “What have you been thinking about?”

The witch nudged the male with her shoulder laughing lightly. “Rude.” She replied, shaking her head with a smile. “Well... Gosh, this is awkward.” Cassie ran a hand through her hair trying build up the courage to say what she wanted to say. She didn’t know what was up with her, usually she was so confident but when it came to Marcus it was a whole different ball game. “Well, I think it’s clear we both like each other, right?”

Cassandra bit her lip nervously as she briefly looked at the male before settling her gaze back to the floor. “So, I’ve been thinking...”

As Cassandra spoke, Marcus’ eyebrows darted up in surprise, though he quickly recovered. “You have a sister, that’s great! What else is there to be thought about?” He grinned happily, neglecting to think about how a half sister may come about.

The Ravenclaw couldn’t help but to smile at the male’s enthusiasm though it was only short lived. “Yeah, I mean I’m sort of happy, I guess. I did always want a sibling, and she’s really nice -- hell she saved my life during the attack -- and she’s so beautiful ... but I just can’t believe my father would do that to us, to my mother, and to keep it a secret for so long.” She gave a shrug feeling emotional, she couldn’t help but to feel betrayed that her father would keep such a thing from her. “I don’t even know if my mother knows, she’d be heartbroken. This is could just destroy my family.”

Jesse wasn’t quite sure what he was expecting. He didn’t know his cousin, at least not in the conventional way. He knew what other people thought of her – both the good and the bad. But still, he wanted some connection with his family and now he was able to have that, where he hadn’t been before. Still, feeling this person who was essentially a stranger embrace him was rather odd, and yet he returned the hug regardless. “I – uh, almost did.” He informed her before moving out of the hug. “They didn’t tell you I was alive?” He cocked his head to the side. He was aware that he was expected to stay close to those who had helped him through the ordeal, but to not even tell his family that he was alive seemed unfair. 

She raised a brow, “What happened?” The witch asked wondering what the truth was, she’d heard so many different stories and different rumours it would be nice to finally find out what led to her cousin’s disappearance. She stepped back slightly as he pulled from the embrace. “No, last I heard my father said that the order had killed you. I mean, there were rumours within the family that you were alive but I didn’t think it was possible.”

Marcus offered the woman a slight concerned look as she spoke, brows knitting together as he gently squeezed her hand, bringing her closer. “Anything you want to talk about?” He asked with a slight, comforting smile crossing his face.

Cassandra gave the male a reassuring smile to let him know she was okay as she noticed the concerned look on his face. Her heart fluttered lightly as he squeezed her hand, “Well, I just found out that I have a half sister and I’m not quite sure how I’m supposed to feel about that.” 

[cassandra-rivas]

Marcus immediately noticed the deepening colour of her cheeks and found his doing the same in response. Merlin, she was beautiful.. His gaze shifted over her face, his smile widening as it settled on her smile. “Distracted how?” He teased, raising an eyebrow as he made his way passed her and into the room, keeping their hands connected as he did. 

The ravenclaw imagined to an outside they looked like a bunch of love-sick puppies just standing there grinning at each other like weirdos but she couldn’t bring herself to care. The smile dimmed at the males question, though she attempted to keep it on her face. “I’ve had stuff on my mind” She replied not really knowing what to say to the male.

marcushastwonames:

The tight embrace he received from the raven haired beauty made a warmth rise through his entire being. As she spoke, Marcus couldn’t stop a large, dorky grin from lacing his face. It was nice, hearing that she had missed him back - that his feelings weren’t one sided. “Yeah.. Me too, I’ve missed waking up to your face.“ He grinned once again before darting his eyes around the room beyond. "Can I come in?” He asked her with a gentle smile before gently tracing one of his hands down her arm, catching her hand in his he then laced their fingers together, once again taking advantage of his current confidence. 

Cassandra couldn’t help the grin that came to her own face as she saw the male’s. It was such an odd feeling for her, she was normally so flirtatious and confident but she found herself feeling bashful around the male. Everything was so much more genuine with him. She gave a small chuckle, a red hue tinting her cheeks. The witch gave a nod before stepping aside letting him inside. Her smile grew wider as she watched the male entwine their hands. Clearing her throat she looked back up at him. “You’ll have to excuse the mess I’ve been a little distracted.” She confessed looking at the clothes scattered around the room.

As the door opened, the cautious look that laced his features was replaced with a large grin. “Hey Cassie.” Marcus greeted her with a tight embrace, arms wrapping around her he then gently squeezed her against his chest. “Everything is great, I just..” He hesitated, trying to find his confidence. “I just missed you.” He told her as he peered back down toward her as he pulled back from the embrace.

Cassandra wrapped her arms tightly around the males torso in a hug as she buried her face into his shoulder. She pulled back slightly to look up at him. “Good, I’m glad.” She replied smiling at him. A small laugh left her lips, “I missed you too Marcus. It’s felt weird being here by myself after spending all my time with you when you were in the hospital.”

[cassandra-rivas]

slytherbas:

“Probably not.” Bas shrugged, he was not above explaining it to the witch in vivid detail, but of course he would not subject her to such unless she would have liked to hear it. He could be courteous sometimes. “You’re one of few who is deserving of such flattery.”

 “Yes, you’re right. Perhaps it’s better we leave that one there.” She replied smiling as she placed a hand on his upper arm. A small laugh left her lips at the male’s reply as she raised a brow smirking, “And what on earth makes you say that?” 

[cassandra-rivas]

Andrew nodded in thanks before placing the bottle back in his bag and walking back towards the centre of the room. “I think I’ve had more lectures in the past month than the rest of my life.” The blond informed the witch with a slightly bitter chuckle and a shake of the head. Meeting her gaze, he nodded again. “I didn’t know I was so popular.” He joked, running a hand through his hair.

She gave him a look that was halfway between a smirk and a sympathetic smile. A small laugh fell from her lips. “I’m Marcus’ friend, he’s spoke a bit about you.” Cassandra explained giving him another smile. “Though now I’m looking at your face I feel like we may have bumped into each other before.” She gave a shrug, she couldn’t actually place the male but she definitely recognised him.

feat @cassandra-rivas

It had been almost a week since Marcus had been discharged from the hospital and, although during his time there the raven haired beauty, who he was on his way to visit, hadn’t left his side - he found himself missing her company. Catching his bottom lip between his teeth, the young man inhaled deeply before entering the hotel, nervous that he may bump into one of his torturers on his way to Cassandra’s room. Luckily, he didn’t and managed to find his way to her room unscathed. A guard sat outside which told Marcus that she was in there. With a smile he then raised his hand to tap his knuckles gently against the wood, choosing the knock this time - considering what happened the last time he let himself in. 

The raven haired female had spent most of her day moping, thinking about the new information regarding her having a half-sister she knew nothing about. A sigh left her lips as she heard a knock on the door. It was probably the guard checking up on her. Pushing herself off of her bed she slowly made her way to the door before opening it. A smile came to her face as her eyes landed on the male. “Marcus.” Cassandra exclaimed happily, “I wasn’t expecting you. Is everything okay?” She asked a hint of concern lacing her words as she wondered what brought the male to her door. 

[cassandra-rivas]

slytherdanes:

“Don’t.” Andrew warned, stopping his workout as he noticed the individual standing in the doorway. “I’ve been on bed rest too long and I need this. For my sanity.” It was true that he shouldn’t be going at it too hard too quickly, and the fresh scars still present on his body were evidence of this, but there was too much on his mind for him to truly listen to that advice. “So you can join me or you can leave.”

Cassandra found her eyes drawn to the male’s topless body, something she often did around half naked people, but something was different this time - this time guilt flooded her. Her and Marcus wasn’t exactly a thing but there were definitely feelings there which was the reason she tore her eyes away instead of giving the male a flirtatious smile she just gave him a small polite smile. “Don’t worry I’m not about to lecture you, I’m sure you’ve received enough of them.” She gave him a sympathetic smile. “It’s Andrew, right?” The witch asked pulling her jacket off so she could join the male. 

[cassandra-rivas]

slytherbas:

“You might be right, but you could say I had enough fun to last me a few days here. Perhaps.” He shrugged, running his tongue along his bottom lip. “Who wouldn’t miss you? The scenery was terribly boring without you.”

“Is that so? Dare I ask?” Cassandra was worried to say the least, she knew Bas’ fun wasn’t exactly what normal people would call fun. She shook her head with a smile. “You always did flatter me too much.”

@cassandra-rivas

Ever since he had overheard someone mention his cousin and the fact she was here, he had been contemplating going to see her. Jesse didn’t have much of a connection to his past life, and even those were small. He couldn’t help the feeling that if he just spoke with his cousin, then things could fall into place. Or that it would at least help. He’d already been to what he was informed was his cousin’s room, but after knocking and waiting, she hadn’t answered. This time, he hoped she was in. He waiting at the door for a moment – he wasn’t sure what he was going to even say to her, but he wanted to at least know her. So, his fist came up and he knocked loudly.

Cassandra hadn’t heard the first knock. She only started to stir from her slumber as the knock got louder. Squinting at the sunlight coming in from the window, she blinked a few times trying to wake herself up properly. A yawn fell from her lips as she pushed herself up from her bed to go open the door. She thought she was dreaming first. She had to be. Jesse was dead... or that’s what they told her. “Jesse?” She asked not quite believing her eyes. “Oh my gosh. They told me you were dead.” The witch stated before flinging herself into her cousin’s arms, tears of happiness brimming her eyes.
