A part of her had still been convinced he wasn't really here, that it wouldn't really be him. She could have imagined the whole conversation, it wouldn't have been the first time after all.
When he opened the door her smile grew even wider. It was him! It was really honestly Chris, the one person from Bristol she really wanted to see again. She hugged him back tightly, a sudden wave of emotion making her close her eyes before she burst into tears. She'd missed him so much and now he was here.
Of course Cassie had had years of practice pretending everything was just fine and now was no different she laughed at his question and gave him a quick once over. "Wow Chris, yeah total classy and mysterious," she agreed. "If only I'd had more time, I'd have make a top hat and bowtie for him." She stepped in and handed over the clothes. "S'pose you'll both have to make do with these for now though."
