"what maked you think you're home?" she heard him say and realized he was awake.
"The fact that this is a perfect moment. Me waking up in your arms for the first time in way too lon. I love you."
"I love you too."
Just then there was a knock on the door and Ashleigh's voice said, "Hey, Case, are you awake?"
"Yeah, hang on though." Cappie and Casey started scrambling to get their clothes on.
When they were both fully clothed Casey opend the door for Ashleigh.
When Ashleigh saw them all she said was, "Well, finally!" Then she gave Casey a big excited hug.
Cappie said, " I should probably be getting back to the KT house before anybody wakes up and finds me not there."
"I think it's already too late for that. Over half of the KTs saw you come over here last night."
"Still, I hsould be getting back, especially since my social calender is suspended for two weeks starting today. See ya. Bye, Case, I'll call you later." With that he walked out of her room and back to the KT house.
Ashleigh said, "You have to tell me everything."
"I'm sorry, Ash, but I don't kiss and tell."
Over the next two weeks since the Kappa Taus weren't allowed to have a social life or leave the house for that matter except to go to classes Casey and Cappie didn't see eachother except for in their women's study class. They stayed up lated talking on the phone and a few times they stayed on the phone till one of them fell asleep.
Two week after the end of the world party that everybody kept talking about Casey woke up to find a white rose laying on her bedside table. There was a note with the rose:
Meet me at our spectial place tonight at 9:00.
I promise I'll be there.
-love Cappie.
When Casey read the not she couldn't help but be happy. Did she really have to wait so long before she got to see him?
She decided to call him to let him know that she got the rose and the note. After she called Cappie she had to tell Ashleigh.
"Hey, Ash, guess what."
"What's this guessing game about. Hmmmm. From the smile on your face I'm guessing it's something Cappie realated."
"yeah, I woke up and found a white rose laying on my bedside table with a note this morning. They were both from Cappie."
"Aww. That's so sweet. So, what did the note say?"
"Meet me at our special place tonight at nine. I promise I'll be there. Love Cappie."
"Sounds serious. Maybe he's thinking about lavaleiring you without a ceramoni."
"Haha. I doubt that."
"Why?"
"Remember last time I dated Cap? He never lavaleired me, even after he told me he loved me."
"It's going to be different this time, Case. You never know what he's going to do."
I know. I can't wait for tonight no matter what he has planned. He's finally able to have a social life and that means somehting big I'v sure."
"I gotta go. I've got a breakfast date with Fisher."
"See later."
When Ashleigh walked out of the room Casey started contemplating what she should wear tonight for her date with Cappie. She was half way to the closet when she heard a tapping noise on the window. She opened it imediately.
"Hey, Case."
"Hey, Cap, what are you doing?"
"What does it look like?"
"Ha ha."
"Do you wanna go for a walk with me?"
"Of course."
She ran downstairs to meet him. They started walking down Greek Row. They walked for ten minutes hand in hand. Cappie finally decided the silence had to be broken.
"So, how did you like the rose this morning?"
"I thought it was really sweet."
"I've been thinking, Case, about how everybody, including me, knew that we belonged together but you didn't."
"Like I said, I thought I was in love with first Evan and then Max. Love, even if it's a different kind of love can blind you to who you're really supposed to be with."
"I've also been thinking about lavaliering you."
"You have?"
"Yeah, and I finally decided that if I've been in love with you all this time, shy shouldn't I give you my letters?"
When he said this he took off his KT letters and chained them around her neck. He then said, "I know there's supposed to be a ceramony, but what do we need one for? I mean everybody knows that we belong together so what use is a lavaliering ceramony for us anyway?"
"Aww, Cap, I'll never take them off. I might as well give you mine too." She then took the gold ZBZ letters from her pocket that Max had given her as his own way of a lavalier and she hadn't given them back to Max. She put the letters around Cappie's neck as well.
They walked hand in hand all the way to Dobler's for a drink and then walked all the way back to ZBZ. When they were at the door he leaned down and kissed her and whispered, "I love you" into her ear.
Before walking back into the house she told him, "I love you too, Cap."
