Chapter Sixty Three- You and I Collide

'Why do you live?'

'Because I have something worth living for'

I sat shocked in the desk chair, chills running through my body.I seemed paralyzed, except for my index finger that kept hitting the 'replay' button on the screen every time it went blank.

I had been checking my email when this glorious gift was sent to me by Carson. I haven't left the computer since.

I whined. It was only August and the first part wasn't coming out until November!!!! That's three months!!! And then another eight months until part 2 comes out!!

I banged my head on the desk. That's too long; it's practically cruel posting the trailer up that much earlier.

"Um...Cassie?" Dan said from the hallway. I stopped banging my head and looked over at him. "What?" I mumbled, depressed.

He laughed "What's up with you?" he walked over behind me, looking at the screen and then laughed at my actions "Aw is Cassiebear anxious?"

"Anxious is an understatement" I mumbled again.

"You know that the trailer has been up since June right?" He asked.

I gaped at him. No I didn't know that. I rolled my eyes "Great even when you know Harry Potter you're still not in the loop"

He chuckled "I'm about to go see Emma, wanna come?"

I smiled; I hadn't seen Emma in a week and a half. "Sure"

Since Tom was out with Chris today it was just Dan and I making our trip over to Emma's apartment. We raced each other to her apartment door, him beating me by a few feet.

As he was about to knock, the door opened revealing a tall, muscular, dark brown hair that looked very disheveled, early twenties, hottie. Emma's eyes became those of horror as she realized why he stopped.Dan and I smirked at each other before smirking at her.

"Hey I've seen you somewhere before" The man said pointing at Dan. My mouth dropped open, sure to catch flies. How can you live on the face of the planet and not notice that Dan was Harry Potter? I can understand if you don't know that Harry Potter is Daniel Radcliffe, but not noticing Harry Potter?!

"Really? I don't think that we have met before" Dan said casually.

The man's finger slowly drifted to his side "Well maybe not then" He shrugged and stepped out of the door way "See you around Emma" he called as he left for the stairs.

Once he was out of sight, both Dan and I turned our faces back to a blushing Emma "Who was that?" I asked flirtatiously, winking.

"What were you two doing?" Dan asked wiggling his eye brows.

Emma stepped away so that we could walk in, shutting the door behind us. "He is just a friend!"

I shook my head from side to side "Friends do not have sex hair"

Her cheeks were as red as cherries "He is just a friend! Let it go!"

"Mmmhmmm" Dan and I said in unison, then high fived each other for thinking the same thing.

She rolled her eyes, walking into her kitchen area. Dan and I flopped on the couch, my feet in his lap.

"So what are you too brats doing here?" She asked searching in her cabinets for something.

"Oh just boredom, so we thought we would come pop in on Emma" Dan answered.

"Yay for me" She said sarcastically.

My eyes crinkled in confusion "What wrong Em?"

She sighed and smiled at us, "Nothing just a little agitated"

Dan and I shrugged at each other, as Emma came around the couch and sat in the chair. "Oh Cassie what is your favorite flower?"

"Um...why?" I asked

"Just wondering. I'm thinking about girlifying your place up with flowers" She shrugged smoothly.

"Lily's then" I smiled.

"Pretty" She answered.

We ended up just watching the television. My phone rang obnoxiously in a very critical part of the show.

I walked in to Emma's room as to not bother the others and answered the phone "Hello?"

"Hey babe where are you guys?" Tom said through the phone.

"Oh your home already?" I asked totally losing all track of time.

He laughed "Its nine thirty Cas"

Really? "Oh right...well Dan and I are over at Em's"

"Why?" He asked

"Why not?" I replied.

"Stop that, you've been hanging out with Dan too much"

I laughed "Sorry"

"So when are you coming home?"

"I donno"

"You need sleep, I'll come pick you up" He said and I could hear the rattle of car keys in the back ground.

"Hey you can't decide when I leave, or when I go to bed. You're not my fath-" I stopped sort "You can't control me"

He sighed "Big day tomorrow, you need sleep."

"What is so big about this day? We're going to the beach, so what?"

He scoffed "Fine I might just not take you"

I huffed "Come and get me"

He was at the door within forty minutes. Dan stayed, both of them teasing me for having a 'bed time'.

"Am I really going to have to go to sleep?" I asked Tom twisting my head to the side. I was slumped in the passenger seat.

He smiled down at me "Now do you think that I would lie to you?"

"No, but I really don't see why-"

"Trust me" He said grabbing my hand, lacing our fingers together.

I half smiled, and stared out the window at the lights shining around town.

I put my hair up in a sloppy bun and climbed into bed, as Tom started walking out the door.

"Hey, hey, hey if I have to go to sleep so do you"

He smirked at me, his hand already on the door knob. "I have to make a few phone calls first"

I rolled my eyes and he chuckled lightly stepping outside, turning off the light as he went.

I sighed and rolled over on my stomach, looking at the nothingness.

Two and a half hours later, as my eyes were drifting closed; Tom was still not next to me. The bed was unusually cold without him making me fall into a restless slumber.

I awoke to light kisses on my neck. I groaned and rolled over.

Tom chuckled "Wake up my beauty"

I looked at the clock. Ten thirty. "Cassie's not pretty until twelve" I mumbled into a pillow.

He laughed "Says you"

I rolled back over to my back, not opening my eyes, and wrapped my arms around his neck "You're just trying to get me out of bed"

He chuckled nuzzling his head in my neck. "Really? Because I thought it would be the other way around"

I stuck my tongue out at him. He laughed and started tickling my sides lightly.

I laughed wiggling under his finger tips "Okay, okay I'm up". I sat up rubbing my eyes.

He kissed my cheek. "Be down stairs in ten minutes" He instructed, only now did I notice that he was already dressed in a t-shirt and swim trunks, as he walked out the door.

I breathed in deeply, looking out the window to discover that it was a beautiful sunny day outside.

After getting dressed in a bikini, shorts, shirt, and flip flops. I walked down the stairs grabbing an apple from the island in the kitchen and searching through the living room for my sunglasses.

Flipping over cushions, pillows, newspapers, etc, and not finding a single thing, I huffed placing my hand on my hip. Where could the bloody things have gone?

Suddenly my vision was tinted black, as my sunglasses were placed on. "Looking for these?" Tom asked from behind me.

I turned around smiling, adjusting them briefly "It's like you read my mind"

He smiled then grabbed my hand heading for the back door.

He was energetically starting the car the second I shut the door. I laughed "Why are you happy?"

"I get to spend the day with my girl, what's not to be happy about?"

I blushed a little, and took a bite of my apple. "So...why is it that you can go to sleep later than me and get up earlier than me?"

He smirked to the road as he took a right "I'm an actor, getting up early for makeup and staying up late rehearsing lines...it's what I'm use to"

I shrugged "Makes sense, but wouldn't it go back to a normal schedule when you're not filming?"

He looked a little dumbfounded "I have no idea"

I rolled my eyes, and took another bite of the apple. Tom opened his mouth. I laughed while placing the apple in his mouth as he took a bite.

He chewed slowly "Thanks"

I just smiled. "Any reason for the sudden trip?"

He hesitantly shrugged "We haven't had any alone time in a while"

I nodded "Well I'm excited, I love the beach"

"I know" he smiled.

I climbed out of Demon the second Tom parked the car. I shut the door lightly and removed my sunglasses as to get a perfect look. I smiled to myself as I walked around the front of the car meeting Tom in the middle.

"Why are there-"

"Not that many people?" Tom finished for me "It's August and a Wednesday at noon"

"Oh" I said feeling a little stupid.

He chuckled and started leading me on to the sand. I kicked off my shoes and carried then most of the way, loving the feel of warm sand in between my toes.

He stopped when he thought we were the right amount of length away from the water, and slowly took off his shirt flinging it to the side and looked down at me.

How could he do that so care freely? I hesitantly slid my shorts off and stretched my shirt down, trying to cover my exposed legs and hide my pink cheeks.

Tom rolled his eyes at me, and looked down a little sadly. He grabbed my waist and turned me so that I was almost pressed against his chest. "After all this time, you're still going to act like this?"

"I-I-" I couldn't think of what to say.

He half frowned and grabbed the edges of my shirt lifting it up over my head and throwing it next to his shirt. "There, now you have nothing" he gulped looking at me up and down "at all, to be self conscious about" He kissed me lightly, and then grabbed my hand once more beginning to run into the water. I laughed.

We splashed each other for a while, before I dove head first into a wave, only to have him follow me and grab my waist twisting us around under the water. I giggled causing me to lack in oxygen supply and kick up to the surface.

I took a gulp of the sea air after breaking through the water barrier, to have Tom pop up beside me not a moment later giving me a devilish smile.

Thinking quickly, before he could do anything, I attack him by jumping on him, pushing him into the water.

After a little while I noticed that he wasn't coming back up. I started panicking searching the water, calling out his name.

Suddenly warm arms wrapped around my waist and an "hmmm" was whispered in my ear.

I twisted in his arms and started hitting his chest. "You jerk! Don't ever scare me like that again...Oh geez I just had a Leonardo Dicaprio moment"

He rolled his eyes "Let me guess"

"Titanic" We both said at the same time. I glared at him.

He pouted "Forgive me?"

"You practically gave me a heart attack" I said acidly.

He leaned down so we were the same height and lightly kissed the side of my mouth, barely touching the skin. My heart began to race feeling that sudden spark. His arms tightened around me as he kissed down my jaw and to the base of my neck before trailing back up and kissing my lips slowly. I wrapped my arms around his neck as I gave up, him tempting me too much.

His arms slowly went down to the back of my thighs, picking me up and wrapping my legs around his waist. I kissed him, slowly meshing our mouths together as my arms tightened around his neck.

I didn't even notice he was walking us back to the shore until I found that my back was hitting the sand. My legs didn't untangle themselves from his waist though, if anything they wrapped around him tighter.

Everything was heating up a little more than I was use to, when his phone rang from under his shirt.

He detached his lips from mine and looked up irritated. "It can't be that time already" he groaned.

My head tilted to the side, trying to detect his features from the blaring sun. "What are you talking about?"

He sighed looking down at me "nothing". He slowly unwrapped my legs from his waist and went to answer his phone.

I just laid there with my eyes closed, enjoying the warmth of the sun on my skin. Suddenly the sun was blocked. I opened my eyes to see Tom dressed and holding a hand out for me.

I pouted at him "what?"

He sighed "It's time to go"

"Since when are we on a schedule?"

"Just...don't ask questions" He said frustrated.

A little stung by his tone I stood up got dressed and got into the car without another word. We were half way home before he said anything.

"Cassie say something" He begged

"What do you want me to say?" I asked monotone staring out of the window.

"Don't act like that" he whined.

"I just don't see why you force me to go to sleep, wake me up and drag me outside, take me to the beach and just when I'm really enjoying myself you snap at me telling me it's time to go. What is so important that I can't know about it?" I sighed and mumbled "you never tell me anything anyway"

"I never tell you anything?!" he asked his voice raising slightly. "What have I not told you?"

I glared at him "Like where did you go when you left that weekend?!"

"Oh my god are you still on about that? I was at my parent's house, with Chris. End of story." He said gripping the steering wheel tightly, his fist going white.

"I have known you long enough to know when you're lying! And you continuously lied to me before you left and you're lying to me now!" Angry tears were running down my face. "Why do you have to lie to me?"

"I'm not lying! And you think you're so perfect hmmm? Then tell me why you even got on that rollercoaster Cas!" He yelled. We were getting into the familiar part of town by now.

I stared at him through the blurriness "You really want to know why?!"

"Yeah I do!" He shouted "I think that I deserve to know the reason why you were in a hospital!"

"Fine! I went there because I wanted to forget! And that might sound stupid to you and it probably doesn't make sense, but I hated the fact that I couldn't let go of you, that every god damn day was agony. I just wanted it to be over! I went there for closure, which I never got! Okay?!"

His eyes had softened a little but he didn't say anything, as I continued to cry trader tears. When we got home I opened and slammed the car door so hard I thought it would break. I just wanted to get away from him for a while.

I opened the unlocked back door and headed up the stairs and walked to the library. I shut the door and fell into a chair, silently fuming/crying to myself.

Around ten minutes later the door opened and Tom walked in. I stood up furious. I walked over to him and shoved his chest, he didn't move much but the intention was clear. "What gives you the right to-" I didn't finish the rest.

He held my shoulders "I'm sorry, this day is supposed to be perfect...and obviously it isn't going that way."

My bones where still tense telling me not to let down my guard. He hugged me to his chest "I'm sorry, let us please just forget about this...please"

After a moment of deliberating I hugged him back and nodded my head.

"Will you go take a shower please?" He asked softly, loosening his grip on me.

I nodded and left the room.

The shower was refreshing, so refreshing that I was back to a good mood forgetting the resent argument altogether. It was probably stupid anyway.

When I walked into the room, in nothing but a towel, I had planned on walking into the closet and putting on jeans and a sweat shirt, but on my way there I discovered a dress on the bed.

It was beautiful. My favorite color, dark emerald green, cut so that it would drift down right to the mid thigh. It was spaghetti strapped and cut that it would show a little cleavage, but not too much.

I moved my wet bangs out of my eyes as I examined it closer, feeling the nice smooth texture on my finger tips.

I smiled to myself, knowing that Tom bought this for me.

I quickly put it on, and fixed my hair so that it was down in its usual nice curls. I put on some red lipstick and finished doing my eye makeup. Once I put on some green flats, I headed out the door.

As I started walking down the mountain stair case. I noticed Tom at the bottom of them, dressed up in a nice suit. He smiled dazzlingly, and took my hand once I reached the bottom. "You're breathtaking" He breathed.

I blushed looking down at our feet before brushing some of my hair back and smiling at him "Thank you for the dress"

"Anything for you princess" He gleamed, walking us to the front door.

"Princess? I like the sound of that" I said thinking about it as we walked down the path way.

He rolled his eyes slightly, and helped me climb up into Demon before going around the car and driving down the road.

After a moment of driving I asked, "So am I allowed to know where we are going?"

He smiled down at me, all traces of our argument gone, "We are going out to eat"

"What's the occasion?"

"Do we need an occasion?" He asked looking at me, trying to hide a smirk.

I shrugged "Not really I suppose"

Not twenty five minutes later did we arrive at a very fancy restaurant that I had never been to before.

He held my hand tightly as the waiter showed us to our seats. For a moment I thought he was going to sit us at this one table, but instead he opened these red curtains revealing a private luxurious room.

Candles were lit, the moon light was shining through the windows, and there was a perfect sized table in the middle with an off white colored table cloth. Red fabric was surrounding the walls creating a very warm and passionate feel to the room. Light string quartet music was softly playing in the background.

Tom held my chair out for me, and I sat down, my head turning from side to side taking in every aspect of the room.

Once the waiter left, I finally took my eyes off the room and looked at Tom who once again was showing a small sign of a forming smirk. "A private room?" I gaped.

He shrugged, smiling "I thought we could use our privacy, it is way too chaotic out there"

"I love you" I said smiling, as another waiter came in and poured us glasses of wine, not making a sound.

He smiled back "I love you too" He took a deep breath "Now I think that this wine is brilliant, I just hope that you like it"

I placed the glass to my lips then pulled back a little "Am I allowed to drink?"

He rolled his eyes.

I smirked and took a sip of the dark red wine. It flowed down my throat like ribbon, the taste sweet and exotic. "This is amazing" I said taking another drink full.

Through the entire night, not a word was spoken out of the waiters they just brought and picked up the dishes. Tom had picked out everything, all of the food and the desert: triple chocolate mousse cake, which we split.

"When do you have to leave next?" I asked out of the blue.

His eye brows furrowed together "We don't have to talk about that"

I placed my hand on top of his; smiling at him "I want to know, please?"

He sighed a little "Well little things off and on starting in September" That was next month "But I was figuring, that you would be coming with me most of the time...you don't have to stay at home"

I smiled thinking about it "I like that idea"
