Part of the problem with suddenly finding yourself in civilization was that people expected you to dress accordingly. One of her friends at the Reserve had owled Cassie her wardrobe, but not much of it was really acceptable for wearing around London. It was pretty much all incredibly casual and incredibly well worn. So she'd had to go shopping. Mostly she'd purchased trousers and tops, but at one shop the Muggle saleswoman had insisted that a 'pretty girl like her needed to own a dress'.
Cassie was fairly sure she hadn't worn a dress since the Yule Ball, and possibly not since childhood before that. But she did have a 'date' with Cai, and it'd be fun to see that look on his face if she was wearing... girl clothes (not to mention the woman had picked out a dress and was being pretty insistent about it). So she'd purchased the damn thing.
Around 6:55 on Monday evening (after throwing on the dress and attempting to pull her hair back. She'd drawn the line at attempting make-up, however. A girl had to have limits), she walked out of her bedroom in Charlie's flat into the living room to find him sitting on the couch.
"Don't say a word," she told him before he could open his mouth. She never dressed like this on the Reserve. She never dressed like this period.
