|Starter for Cassie | Hello Again 

The idea of one more night in that house was just short of unbearable. Cori had been back for holidays since moving away, and though draining, she was able to make it through those visits without incident, but this time was different. Nearly a month had passed, and maybe that was the key, a week was the maximum amount of time she could spend in her childhood home home before the implosion process began. She needed to get out of there before biting her tongue was something she could no longer convince herself to do. 

Corinne walked into the apartment building filled with uncertainty. Did consideration mean she actually decided to stay ... in Salem. She wasn’t the same person that left all those years ago, but maybe it was time to come home and figure some things out. She took a deep breath and walked into the leasing office. 

After a bit of small talk and questions being answered, Cori was taken on a tour of the building and as they were headed to the model unit she was stopped in her tracks by a ghost. A ghost from the past... “Cassie?”

Even all these years after they’d become estranged, it was hard for the holiday season to come and go without something in stores catching Selena’s eyes and reminding her of Cassie. An owl-shaped Chia Pet here, a onesie that was crafted after the duck filter on ZapChat there, even just candles that were scents that Selena knew relaxed her friend. Former friend? Selena didn’t even know quite what to call them this year. Maybe reaching out to Cassie had been a mistake; maybe sending her the song had been an even bigger one. But now that they were on speaking terms and Selena realized just how much the girl she’d once seen as her platonic soulmate was struggling, she couldn’t just leave things on the shelf when they reminded her of Cassie. And so she’d bought them, hoping against hope that her old friend would actually agree to meet her. Now Selena sat inside of crownbucks, sipping a caramel brulee latte, her eyes constantly darting towards the door as she hoped against hope that Cassie would come.

@hufflecass:

The first thing Cassie saw when she opened her eyes was a round shape floating over her head. She didn’t have time to question what it could possibly be or why it was possibly there before the fear set in and she screamed, loudly, scrambling up in bed, as far back against the headboard and away from the object that she could be. She’d been dreaming of something scary already, of that she was sure, although what, she didn’t know. The memories of it were scared away the instant she woke up.

Once she’d calmed down just the teensiest bit, she saw that the menacing shape wasn’t alone. Another one was incoming through the curtains of the canopy bed, and that was when she noticed that maybe these weren’t big scary things at all. They were pumpkins! The first one even had heart-eyes painted on it and that wasn’t menacing at all - it was sweet even, maybe. There were only a handful of people she could guess would do something like that but the cutesyness of the emojis gave her only one main suspect. “Rachel?” she croaked out hopefully, because otherwise this could catapult back to a nightmare situation in a second.

“NooOoOoOoooooOooooo,” Rachel replied, giggling as she tried to do her best spooky ghost-like voice. Even though she knew ghosts didn’t sound like that in real life, only on Muggle television shows, she still thought the way that their voices warbled up and down was so fun. “NoooOooooOooOooooot Rachel, the ghost of pumpkins past!” She floated another pumpkin in Cassie’s direction, this one with the smiley, blushy face on it, although as she did so, she tiptoed towards her sister’s bed with a big smile on her face. They’d just started learning Summoning Charms; she could do that to get the rest of the emojis to her while she sat and hugged her sister instead. “Did I scare you?” she asked, part proud and part apologetic. Scaring people was part of a good Halloween prank, but there was such a fine line when it came to her sister that she hoped it was the good kind of scare and not the one that would make Cassie feel lousy.

Dominique & Cassie II Girls Night In (boys, boys, boys)

It had been weeks since Dominique had had her last 'girls night in' and that had been with Lily before her and Harry had even started dating and like girls do all they'd talked about was boys. Well that and gossip. Dom hoped tonight would be just as fun, she'd invited Cassie to her dorm while the other girls wern't there so they could catch up, after all it had been a while since the two had been together for more than ten minutes. Stretching out on her bed Dom's fluffy slippers just poked off the end her hair tossed over one shoulder as she flicked through an old charms book - she had to do something while she was waiting after all, although this was deadly boring. Flipping over the red head got up digging through her bag to try and find the chocolate she'd saved for the event munching at a corner quickly. She'd tried to save it but giving into temptation was something Dominique did only too easily.

She expected Cassie would have some more news on James, last time they spoke Cas had told her how the two had gone on a date and truth be told Dom was excited to find out how it had gone, and how the two were getting along, she'd never pictured the two together but the more she thought about it the more the coupling grew on her. She'd be expected to spill the beans on Frank she supposed although truth be told the two hadn't spoken much recently - there were no beans to spill. Dominique was worried, Frank had clearly lost interest in her and it was the first time she'd been upset by a boy and she hated it, it was usually her in control. Perhaps she'd write him an owl. Then again she didn't want to do anything too brash, she'd play it cool for now.

Hearing someone climbing the girl's dorms stairs from below Dom grinned and rushed to open the door seeing Cassie she pulled the girl into a hug and grin on her face.

You're not scared, are you? || Christina & Cassie

Christina couldn't help but think how dangerous this situation was, as she fished around her huge closet for something warm she could wear while out on this 'mission' with Cassie. Christina was always a danger seeker and she'd already been curious enough to go right up close to a dead body a few nights ago. If that didn't scare her enough, these dreams she was getting certainly were, and there was somewhere deep inside of her that knew they were related. So when Cassie brought up that they should go out basically, looking for the killer or killer(s) and hand them over to the police, she wouldn't admit it but it really scared Christina, even if Cassie was sure that she could handle whoever got in their way.

So all in all, she was just doing this to prove to Cassie that she wasn't scared, and somewhere inside of her, she wasn't.. she was excited. But the fear was overtaking that thought at the moment. If she didn't prove to Cassie that she could do this, then who knew who she might tell? She didn't even know the girl. Her reputation could be ruined in a second and she really didn't want to be known as a cry baby.

She shuffled out the darkest things she had, which were a pair of dark blue jeans and a black knitted sweater, and threw them on rather quickly. She figured it would be safer to wear something that wouldn't catch so much attention than her usual get-ups. Who would of known Christina Harper had a brain? Sticking her phone in her pocket, Lacing up her boots, zipping up her coat and wrapping a scarf around her neck, Christina tiptoed across the landing, moving swiftly past her parents' room without waking them. Thank god they went to bed earlier than usual.

When she was out of the door, the cold air hit her like a slap in the face. She sighed to herself as she wondered what Richard would think about all of this, seeing as he had advised her not to go around looking for danger all the time. Right now, she agreed with him and she wanted to run back into her house and sleep peacefully in the safeness of her own room. But the other side of her was telling her to keep walking, that this would be fun.

When she reached the town square, next to the clock where Cassie had said, Christina wrapped her arms around herself as she waited nervously for the feisty brunette.
