🌹Cassandra's POV🌹



"Are you ready yet?" Xavier yelled from downstairs.

"Two more minutes!" I yelled back.

"You've been saying that for the last hour!"

I hadn't even dressed yet. We were going for dinner at Charles's and Elizabeth's house.
I had no idea what or how I should dress plus most of my dresses couldn't fit me anymore.

I spent ten minutes trying to find something to wear then forty minutes crying about how fat I was.

"Cassie, we really have to go now." He yelled again.

I took a shoe from my closet then walked out of my room. I stood on top of the staircase as I saw Xavier looking at his watch.
I then throw the shoe at him but missed after nearly hitting his head.

"What was that for?" He asked looking at me in shook.

"You yell at me again and I won't miss." I said before speed walking to my room.

I finally found a dress to wear hidden in the back of my closest. When I brought it last week I thought it was too big but now it's the perfect fit.

I walked downstairs as Xavier stared at me tapping his foot.

"I was beginning to think you died in there." He said smirking at me.

"You know what? I'm going to go back to chance my dress." I lied.

I turned around wanting to see his reaction.

"Please no, you look gorgeous in that." He said stopping me in my tracks.

"Really?" I asked turning around.

"Yes," he answered nodding his head.

"So, I don't look like a fat pregnant pig?" I asked.

"Of cause not, now let's go." He said.

I followed him to the car. He made sure to buckle my seat belt for me.

As we arrived at the house, we were welcomed in by Charles.

"Please come in," he said.

His hair looked a mess and his shirt not properly buttoned.

We entered the house as the aroma of home made food hit my noise.

"I'm so glad you here!" Elizabeth said walking towards us.

Behind her was a little girl holding onto her leg staring at me.

"What's your name?" I asked her.

She hid herself behind Elizabeth.

"Come on, don't be shy." Elizabeth said to her.

She slowly stood away from Elizabeth, her eyes fixed on me.

She had the most beautiful blue eyes.

"My name is Ellie." She answered shyly, her hands behind her back.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Cassie." I said. "How old are you?" I asked.

She showed me five fingers.

"Dinner is served madam." One of the maids said.

We all walked to the dining room.

Xavier and I took a seat next to each other while Charles and Elizabeth sat on the opposite side.
