Reunited and it feels so good..

[Bella Lanning]

Bella waltzed down the steps of her apartment in London. Leighton, Bella's cousin, looked after Autumn, while Bella went out to do some shopping. Her heart became weaker every day, because she felt there was no one their to lift it up for her. There wasn't a day that went by that Bella didn't about Casey. She felt so lost. So... wandering without her. Bella thought Casey would never want to see her again after Bella's sudden disappearance. A tear rolled down Bella's cheek as she hopped in to her blue mini, turning the key in the ignition, and reversing out of the open garage. Shopping was a way to calm her nerves. Let's hope she wouldn't get too distracted by thoughtsof Casey and actually bring home dinner tonight.

Bella pulled into a car parking lot, and wriggled out of her car, grabbing her keys and purse, throwing the keys into the purse and threw the handle of the purse over her shoulder, as she headed down the concrete path towards the grocery store.

 

[Casey Carlin]

After a few days of visiting Bella's place for dinner one night, Casey Carlin had pretty much gone AWOL on her girlfriend and hadn't contacted her since that night. It wasn't because Casey didn't want to see her again, in fact she was possibly more in love with her than she ever was previously, but for some reason that night with Bella had changed everything. It had changed her outlook on life and her future. She needed to figure out what she was planning to do with herself because getting by on her looks was not something she wanted to rely on. Casey had decided to cut herself off from everyone (again?) but this time just to focus on herself and what she needed and wanted, and just do some soul searching.

Finally, she had figured out what she needed to do with the rest of her education for her future, and finally, she was able to see her girlfriend again and tell her why she was become so distant. Casey had snuck out of the Hogwarts gates once again, probably for one of the last times, wearing a striped dress, black tights, and white heels as she rushed down the streets of London. She had sent Bella an owl but it was very last minute and she doubted that Bella had received it in time with such short notice, but still Casey went to a small coffee shop and sat outside of it in the corner of the streets of London in hopes that her girlfriend would have gotten her owl and would be meeting her here soon.

Bella ducked swiftly as an owl swooped down over her head, dropping a purple envelope into her hands. Bella raised a skeptic brow, and turned it over to the smooth side, to read a dainty, neat little script, elegantly written across the paper. Bella opened it excitedly, beaming from ear to ear as she so automatically recognised the hand writing. It was a letter from her girlfriend. Casey. And Bella could think of no other person she wanted to recieve an owl from more than her. It read for Bella to meet her at a coffee shop that just so happened to be a block away. Bella thought even a block couldn't come any quicker, and it seemed as though Casey might aswell be at the end of the world.


She ran. Her eyes looked straight ahead, and she crossed roads when the lights were green, and people on brooms cursed and laughed at her, calling her a foolish, stupid blonde, who should watch where she was going. Bella ran as fast as she could, and her fit legs carried her speedily along the way. Pelting around corners, and sprinting past trolleys, she dodged every obstacle like it was ruling a margin in an excersise book for a cartographer.

Then, it seemed as if time had stopped, because there she was, seated outside of the coffeshop, looking more beautiful than ever. Her eyes like two little peridot drops in the winter snow, her hair silk and beautiful and her face, like an angel's. Bella slowed down and walked over with a huge smile on her face. "Hey," she purred playfully, and knelt down, and engaging in a deep and meaningful kiss, keeping it held on for about 10 seconds, before pulling away and gazed lovingly into Casey's eyes, biting her bottom lip gently with her top teeth.

Casey's foot tapped impatiently as her sea green eyes darted subtly (or hopefully subtly) around the area in search of her girlfriend. She continually kept looking down at her watch and back up, biting her lip in anxiety as she wondered if she had sent the owl too late. She just had something to tell Bella and she felt like it couldn't wait. Casey looked down at her watch once again for the umpteenth time and sighed softly to herself.

She had admitted defeat. When she looked back up she was expecting to see the same scenery and get up and walk away, but when she finally did look up, she saw her girlfriend walking over to her with a huge grin on her face. For a moment Casey's heart stopped and she was beginning to tell herself that she was imagining this, it was all a mirage, and her mind was playing cruel tricks on her. But the next second, Bella had come over to her table, knelt down and kissed her long and good. Casey was stunned for a few seconds but not long enough to return the kiss with equal fervor. It seemed Bella had missed Casey just as much as she had missed her.

"Hey," she replied breathlessly after Bella had pulled away. Casey gave her a smile of longing but said, "Take a seat," as she motioned to the chair opposite her. Now that Bella was here again Casey seemed to have gotten butterflies in her stomach, half out of the passionate kiss her girlfriend had just given her, and half out of nervousness for what she was about to tell Bella.

Bella curtly stepped around the table, and pulled out a chair, whilst smoothing her skirt underneath her thighs to sit down, crossing her legs as she always does. Her face radiated with a clean cut grin, outlined neatly with red lipstick. She tilted her head to the side, and her straightened hair wavered around her face, as she looked at Casey like a lost puppy. She giggled cheekily. "I love you!" she cooed quietly and raised her hand to place her cheek in her palm, resting her head whilst she gazed lovingly into her beautiful lover's eyes.

Belle noticed a slight discolouration in Casey's aura, not exactly what Bella expected to see after the other night. She felt the need to speak up and show her heart felt concern of what was up. "Something you wanna tell me?" She prodded lightly, and narrowed her eyes, and minimalised her smile down to a cheeky smirk. Bella couldn't help it. She absolutely adored Casey with all her heart, and she didn't find at all strange, being in love with a girl. It was exciting. Something new, something... beautiful. Leighton thought it was unnatural, but he was unnatural for thinking that. What could be more natural then two people in love? After all, love has no boundaries.
