"Cappie?" Casey dropped the fork, but made sure to hold the ice cream.
"Of course it's me silly." Cappie grinned as Casey turned around to see him standing there. He had his hands shoved low in his pockets and a happy, yet absent look on his face. "Who else? Oh, by the way…you dropped something."
"What are you doing here?" Her tone was accusing and it hit Cappie like spears.
"I…I…"
"Well?" Casey demanded. She was feeling very impatient with Cappie. Though she loved him, the way he was acting made her so angry. Just last week he was admitting feelings for her, then tonight he was turning her down. And now here he was at the ZBZ house joking around with her.
"You're right. What am I doing here?" He asked.
"Well if I knew, I wouldn't have to ask you." She retorted, picking up the fork.
"I'm here to get you back Case." He stated. "I was stupid. Casey you know I care about you. I already told you. But I just can't stand losing you again. It's not that I don't want to be with you…because God knows I'd do anything to call you 'mine' again…I just don't want to be hurt again. And I know it was my fault the first time…but after that…" He sighed. "Look, I…I love you Casey Cartwright. Can we please just forget everything and try again? Not being with you is killing me, and if tonight was indeed the end of the world, I would only want to be with you."
Casey dropped the fork, and the ice cream, and ran down the stairs to him. She jumped into his arms and held onto him. "Cappie, Cappie please take me back. I was wrong for ever leaving you. Please, please, please. I love you…I love you."
Cappie held her close as she cried into his shoulder. Tears escaped his own eyes and he let them fall. This was the end of the world…but the beginning of a new one.
Ashleigh entered the bedroom around two in the morning to find Cappie and Casey watching The Notebook, and eating mint chocolate chunk with forks. Shed eyed the sight skeptically then asked. "Cappie did you really listen to me?"
"Ashleigh!" Casey yelled, "Get out!" She threw a pillow at her, and tears formed in her eyes. The ending of the movie was coming up.
"No, wait!"
"You heard her!" Cappie threw a pillow at her as well. "Go!" He was about to cry too.
"Argh!" Ashleigh growled. "Stop throwing pillows at me! And fine!" She stomped out of the room mumbling something about how the next time Casey interrupted her and Fisher she'd throw something harder at her.
Cappie held Casey closely as the shot of Allie and Noah holding hands, but dead came onto the screen. Tears poured out of all four eyes and Casey sniffled a bit, hiding her head in the crook of Cappie's neck.
"I think our love can do anything we want it to, too Case." Cappie whispered through his tears.
"I love you Cappie."
"I love you too."
The next morning Casey woke up to an empty bed. Angrily she sat up. Either last night was a dream, or he was just using me! She screamed to herself. She hopped up and walked around the room. Ashleigh wasn't in her bed, but the case for The Notebook was nowhere to be seen, and neither were the remnants of the ice cream or the forks. She threw the door open and was ready to storm down the stairs.
"Whoa there Nelly!" Cappie cried, "What's wrong Case?" He was holding two cups from Starbuck's cups and wore a worried expression on his face. Casey stepped back and allowed him to set the drinks down, then she jumped into his arms. "Someone's loving today…" he commented.
"I though you'd left me." Casey murmured. "I woke up and you weren't there, and you put away the movie, and cleaned up the mess."
"Well, I thought I'd get you some morning coffee, so yes I did leave. But the only reason why I cleaned up is because I didn't want to have to do it later." He smiled. "I'm never going to leave you again Casey. Never, ever, ever."
"Good, because I couldn't live without you." She kissed his cheek.
Cappie chuckled and carried her over to her bed and set her down then he grabbed the two cups. "The feeling's mutual Case. Now here, I got something new: a Chi Tea Latte."
"Is it good?"
Cappie shrugged. "The guy at 'Bucks suggested it."
"Well I totally trust his opinion!" Casey giggled.
"Oh you and your sarcasm." Cappie pinched her cheek. "Well, bottoms up!" He took a sip. "Eh, it's not too bad."
"It's good…" Casey smiled. "Better than what Max got me."
"And my sex is probably better than his too, right?"
"Of course Cappie." She smiled and caressed his cheek. "So, I'm officially dubbing these Chi Tea-thingies our official new 'thing'. Like pie, but a liquid this time."
"Sounds good." Cappie nodded. "Because as much as I love it, my butt's been looking a little larger due to the amount of apple pie we've eaten." He patted his butt through his jeans.
"I like your chunky little butt." Casey grinned. "Now what's on the agenda for today?"
"Well, I was thinking I'd take my jeans off, and get back in bed, and you'd get back in bed too. And we'd stay in bed all day. And watch cheesy Soap Operas if you feel like it, but at twelve I always watch Days of Our Lives…like sand through the hourglass of time…"
Casey laughed and pulled Cappie close to her. "You are such a dork! But I love you so, so, so much. C'mon let's get back in bed." She set her latte down and took Cappie's too, then took his shirt off and let him slip his jeans off. Together then snuggled under the covers, Cappie periodically glancing at the clock to see when his show would come on. Casey let her hand rest on Cappie's cheek and she peered into his blue eyes. "You know, they say that eyes are the window to the soul." She murmured.
"Indeed they are."
"Well right now, your eyes are telling me how much you love me, and there are no words to describe it."
"It's too much." He kissed her.
"I know." She smiled and cuddled closer to him. Sighing she closed her eyes, this was too perfect, its where she wanted to be forever.
A/N: Hey everyone! Well, thank you for such a great response to this story. It made me smile. Like this: :D. So, I really hope you enjoy the last part. I was getting a little "eh…" with it, and had no idea really how to end it. So yes it's corny, yes it's bad, and yes it's written by a girl with no attention span. But please enjoy it!!! P.S. I know the title really doesn't relate to the story that well and the chapter titles are weird too. But yeah...
