"Its no problem at all." She said with a small smile as she let her hair fan out behind her once more after she had fastened the necklace closed. Then she turned a light shade of pink when he said that the necklace looked really pretty on her "It does." She said with a nod as her fingers flew up to the pendant and started playing with it absently "Thank you. It looks wonderful. Not like those cold, pendants that are brand new but have absolutely no character in them."
"I know. Its a really weird request." Cass said with a roll of her eyes, she honestly loved Rex and she highly doubted that his fiance was insane...so that only left his slightly insane cousin. If this was some crazy thing again, she really would hex that woman's hair off. "My friend Rex Trigwell is getting married, and the invite said that we were required to bring dates...I don't know why though.."
Christopher laughed as she shook her head.
"Hah, deffinitely." That would be quite a sight, a school filled with girls that looked Santa..... Although he joked about it, he really didn't think that would be such a good idea. As for the cookies, he said,
"I agree. Completely." Seriously, cookie haters were not cool. Or at least their taste buds weren't.
At first, he didn't notice Cass blush, but just nodded in agreement with a small smile. But when she said it wasn't like a brand new, cold, boring pendant, it was his turn to turn a light shade of pink.
What?! He hoped she didn't actually think it wasn't brand new, or that it was just a piece of junk he'd thrown together carelessly. It was the best he could do and he tried to make it perfect. But thank goodness Cass didn't seem to care. She thought it was perfect with the thought put into it, and he was glad she wasn't as shallow as some people could be.
"Very strange, I will admit," Christopher agreed. And then he heard the name of who was getting married. The boy would have probably done a spit take if he'd been drinking some water. He stopped in his tracks and stares at Cass with wide eyes.
"What!?!?!?" He managed to splutter out.
"No, no, no, this isn't right then! You can't be forced to bring dates!" When he saw Cass's confused and slightly offended look he waved his hands as if to stop her from jumping to conclusions.
"I mean, it's not that I don't want to go, I still do of course! It's just that....." He gulped before continuing.
"My little sister was really good friends with Rex. She's invited too, so that means....." He couldn't he finish the sentence. Elyon was only twelve! She was way too young to have a date! Of course he probably was only saying this because of his protective older brother instincts kicking in, but he just really felt sick at the thought. Plus she herself acted so innocent and up in the clouds, she'd never been invited to anything before, let alone date! He had to talk to her the minute he got to the Common Room that night.
