"No… this one's a load of crap also…" Cassandra said, closing the door to the apartment that she and her real estate agent and best friend, Nicole were looking at. Nicole sighed and looked down at her clipboard, making an x next to yet another apartment address.
"Cassy… you need to pick an apartment soon or you'll be doomed to live with your brother until the end of time!" Nicole exclaimed, and then burst into giggles. Cassandra's face paled and her eyes went wide.
"Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!" Cassandra yelled at the top of her lungs. Somewhere in China, a young boy looked up from his Naruto manga and shrugged.
"Or… we could go find another apartment?" Nicole suggested. Cassandra nodded and practically dragged Nicole to the elevator.
WITH LUKE"As you can see, Mr. Blade, this apartment is quite spacious and has a great view of the New York skyline…" Luke's real estate agent said very monotonically. Luke yawned and walked around the apartment. Yes, it was big… maybe a little TOO big, and yes it had a great view of the New York skyline… not to mention it had a great view of construction up ahead. In other terms, it was horrid. Luke's real estate agent kept talking, but Luke stopped paying attention.
"Mr. Blade?" His real estate agent, Bob, asked. Luke's head snapped up when he heard his name.
"Huh? What?" Luke asked. Bob sighed and shook his head.
"Are you going to buy this apartment?" Bob asked impatiently. Luke's eyes scanned the apartment one more time and he sighed.
"It's the best so far… I guess I'll take it…" Luke said with a sigh. Bob grinned and walked out of the room so that he could get the necessary papers for Luke to fill out. While Bob was out of the room, Luke took the time to walk around his new apartment. From what he could see, it looked EXACTLY like Mark & Roger's loft in RENT. He chuckled lightly and crossed his arms and leaned against the doorframe as he waited for Bob to return.
WITH CASSANDRA"Well, Cassy. This is the last one… Please… don't make me start all over." Nicole pleaded. Cassandra walked into the room and was shocked at the size. Considering the neighborhood it was in, it was big. She also saw that she had a decent view of the New York skyline. Cassandra smiled and walked around. She saw that she might need to pull out the paint covered overalls to and her toolbox, but other than that, it was…
"Perfect" Cassandra whispered so low, it was barely audible. Of course, Nicole heard her, and started squealing and jumping up and down.
"So you'll take it?" Nicole asked. Cassandra grinned at her friend.
"Of course." Cassandra said. Nicole squealed and bolted for the door.
"I'll go get the papers for you to fill out." Nicole announced, and then she ran out of the room. Cassandra walked around and grinned to herself, only to stop when she heard footsteps above her. Deciding to investigate, she walked out of the apartment and walked up the stairs, looking for the room just above her. When she found it, she saw that the door was slightly ajar. Opening it a bit more, she saw a man with black hair with blonde and red streaks, a burgundy leather jacket and worn out jeans. Apparently, he must have sensed her staring at her, so he turned around. She gasped and turned around, trying to run, but a strong hand firmly grasped her arm, making sure that she didn't move.
"What are you doing?" Luke asked. Cassandra blushed and turned her head away. Luke grinned and put his hand under her chin, lightly pushing her head in his direction.
"Hey… are you scared of me?" Luke asked. Cassandra shyly nodded, making Luke laugh.
"Ah… you've heard about what I've done, huh?" Luke asked. Cassandra nodded again. Luke laughed even harder.
"Relax, I've changed. I swear, being in a 6 by 6 holding cell with a gay guy bunking on top of you scares you into saneness." Luke said with a grin. Cassandra giggled at this. Luke grinned and pinched her cheek.
"Is that a smile I see? Yes! It's a smile! BINGO! I WIN!" Luke yelled, making Cassandra laugh really hard. So hard that she fell to the ground. After a few minutes, she calmed down, and Luke helped her up.
"Well, you know who I am… but I have absolutely no clue who you are." Luke said. Cassandra put her hand out to him.
"Hi, I'm Cassandra Flack." Cassandra said. Luke grinned and took her hand in his, kissing her knuckles.
"Enchante" Luke said smoothly, making Cassandra blush. The sound of someone clearing their voice from the door broke them from their moment. They turned around to see Bob holding a big stack of papers. At this, Cassandra's eyes went wide and she bolted for the door to go see Nicole and the papers she needed to fill out.
WITH NICOLE
"IT'S ABOUT TIME!" Nicole yelled as Cassandra bolted into the room. Cassandra smiled weakly and grabbed the forms from Nicole's hands.
"I'm sorry… so sorry… I heard footsteps upstairs so I went to investigate and yadda yadda yadda… I met my new neighbor… you won't believe who it is." Cassandra said. Nicole went from angry to excited.
"Who is it? Who is it?' Nicole asked. Cassandra grinned.
"Luke Blade." She said, and then she blocked her ears. Nicole squealed.
"Oh my god! You are so lucky!" Nicole yelled. Cassandra laughed and grabbed a pen.
"Now… where do I sign?" Cassandra asked. Nicole sighed and began pointing to the many places that Cassandra had to sign.
WITH DON & DANNY
Don sat on his couch with his can of beer and sighed. Danny groaned and turned off the TV.
"Are you going to sit there and sigh all day or are you going to tell me whats up?" Danny asked/yelled. Don sighed again, and you could basically see the vein in Danny's forehead burst.
"It's about Cassy… I'm worried about her…" Don said. Danny raised his eyebrow and sipped his beer.
"I thought you wanted her out." Danny stated. Don sighed yet again.
"I did… but… now I feel all… empty… and guilty… OH GOD DANNY! I LET MY BABY SISTER OUT INTO THE REAL WORLD! I'M A MONSTER!" Don yelled. Danny pondered for a second and then grinned.
"Yeah… I can definitely see the green skin, horns and tail." Danny said jokingly, earning an intense glare from Don. Danny took the remote and turned the TV back on.
