It's Always Been You

Chapter Twenty Nine

Cassandra POV

It’s been 3 months since he proposed me and I become someone’s fiancee. These past 3 months has been a rollercoaster ride. We’ve been busy with our job and the wedding plans. Seb needs to go to his new Marvel movie Infinity War premiere tomorrow and then continue with the press tour after that. His schedule will be tight like my brand new legging that I bought a few weeks ago. We argued a few times because of this hectic wedding plans, he wants this way and I want that way. But in the end, we always have way to fix that. Suddenly my phone buzzing and Carl’s name appear.

“Can you pick Catherine from her ballet class? I need to go to a meeting.”

“Hi, I’m good. Thanks for asking. How are you?”

“Seriously?”

“Yeah, have some manner when you call someone even though I’m your sister. Now, send me the address, I’ll pick her up.”

“Didn’t you have the address? You picked her once.”

“I forgot, probably accidentally deleted it. Send me again, please.”

“Okay then.”

Catherine kind of mad at me after she knows that her ‘boyfriend’ wants to marry me, her aunt. Camilla even said that she cried the day she found out about it. Kids these days, mature before their age. Let’s wish that she wants to see my face after I took away her ’boyfriend’. Because a few days ago, when I tried to talk to her through video call, she didn’t want to look at me. Why she so stubborn just like her Dad?

And lately, I feel so tired. Probably because the preparation of the wedding and there are a lot of cases that I need to handle it. I think it’s because I’m dating the one and only Sebastian Stan, so I kinda gain the popularity as well. Not that I don’t feel grateful that most people know me (celebrities or not) and decide to hire me as their Lawyer. But I actually don’t want people to look at me as “Sebastian Stan’s fiance” only, but I want them to look at me as a proper Lawyer. As a person who loves and know what she doing. Too caught up with my thoughts, I almost do the wrong turn. Almost got scolded by the little Princess if someone pick her up late (did that once).

And here I am, arrived at her ballet class. I think she’s not going out in 10 minutes or so. I still have time to learn some case that James has sent me. Another harassment case. This time from a teacher who keep touching her student in a place that shouldn’t be touch. Her student is a legal age, but still if he didn’t allow that to happened, he has a right to put on a charge to his teacher. I swear I don’t know what in these people heads. Then someone knock on my car window. A woman with ballet dress and... A grumpy little girl.

“Hi! You must be Cassandra, Catherine’s Aunt.” That beautiful woman  smile at me.

“Yeah, the one and only. Sorry I caught up with the papers from work. Thanks for bringing her to my car.”

“No worries. See you on Friday, Cathy.” She waves at Catherine once Catherine hopped on her car seat.

“Bye, bye, Ms. Fishy.”

I smile at her and said another thank you’s. The atmosphere in this car is unbelievable quiet. Cathy not being chatty like her old self since, like I told you before, she found out I’m engaged with Sebastian. Here goes nothing, I’ll try to talk to her.

“Hey there, Princess. How was the ballet class going?” I asked her while took a glance through rear view mirror.

“Fine.”

“You still mad at me about Sebby?”

She looked at me with her frown look, gosh she really is Carl’s twins.

“You know what? How about we go get ice cream?”

She gives me the look that kinda make her thinking really hard, it’s like she’s in a court and she’s the judge who face a really hard case. I can’t hide my smile see that cute face.

“Otay.” She showing me her cute grin.

We arrived at the ice cream place, the one we usually come. I order what she always order, the cookies and cream. She’s been addicted to that flavor since the first time she tasted it. Mean while I order our ice cream, she’s being a big (little) girl, looking for a place to sit. Little did she knows, we’re not going to spend time just the two of us. I finished order the ice creams and find her waiting patiently cute on the table. Looking at the window, she definitely picked the best sit.

“I’m sorry it took so long. Someone in front of me just confused what to order, so I suggested him your favorite flavor.”

“That’s gwet. Cookies and cweem is the best.”

“Indeed the best one.” A voice come up from behind her.

“Sebby!!!!” She got down from her sit and hug him, his legs actually.

“Hey, Princess. How are you?” Sebby lower himself so he’s the same height as Cathy and hugs her back.

“GWEEET!!!” She answered half yelling, I know because she’s too excited to meet her ‘boyfriend’

Sebby chuckles and get another chair for him to sit. I texted him on the way to the ice cream place, let him know someone so grumpy and mad about us. So he needs to explain it to her and see her. Cause it’s been a few weeks Cathy haven’t seen Sebby, because he went to work overseas. He came back two days ago from Ibiza, he had a photoshoot there. I told him to have a rest yesterday and today as well, but I need to end this war with Cathy. So, I called him. I know he still tired from the jet lagged, his eyes could’t lie. But he still manages to form a smile in front of Cathy.

“So, I heard someone missess me so much. Is that you, Cassey?” Sebby playfully asked me in front of Cathy.

“No!! It’s me! Me!!!!” Cathy point up her finger really high so Sebby could see it.

“Oh, it’s you! Great you’re the one that misses me, not Cassey. She’s sometimes says that she misses me, but she just misses me to scolded me, you know?”

Cathy nodded her head, agree with every words Sebastian said to her. She’s madly, deeply in love with him and couldn’t even bother to defend her Aunt.

“Aunty Cassey and Aunty Car always scolded Daddy.”

“Excuse me, Missy?” I give her a pretend look ‘I feel hurt by your words’.

“Hahaha. I miss both of you and don’t mind that your both misses me too. So, Cathy, what you wanna do today after eating this delicious ice cream?” Sebastian asked her with a loving eyes. I just can’t wait for us to have mini me or mini Sebastian running around inside the house and makes us go crazy.
