the only hope for me is you.

Sooo, they left.

And got back to Cassie's.

Aaaaaand, some time went by.

And the two girls were outside, going for a walk.

"anywhere in mind?" Lyssa asked.

"There's a park a few blocks that way," Cassie said gesturing in the direction. "I used to go there when I was younger with the family, and then with Emma as we grew up." She shrugged.

"Sounds like a plan then. Lead the way!"

Cassie smiled softly, as they walked in the direction of the park. "I haven't been there in a few years actually," She said. "It might have blown up for all I know. Though, that is really unlikely."

"Yeaaah, who blows up parks anyway?"

"I dunno, mad hatters."

"Ah, because there are just so many of those."

"Definitely."

"I can think of one."

Cassie frowned. "Yeah," She said.

"No, wait, two."

"I know more than two, just not names of most of them," Cass said with a sigh, running a hand through her hair.

Lyssa stopped for a second. "I know most of their names."

Cass frowned. "Well, most of them would be purebloods. So you would." She shrugged.

"You'd be surprised at how many I didn't learn until..."

Cassie glanced sideways at Lyssa and frowned. "Just. I dunno. Can we not talk about this?"

"You're the one that brought up mad hatters, and there's no denying it Cassie. I was a Death Eater, okay. Not talking about it won't make it go away."

"Yeah maybe, but I wasn't intending for this to come up," She gestured vaguely. "I just, don't want to talk about it. Yes you were. I just don't want to talk about it."

"We're going to have to eventually."

"Great, can't wait. Just not now."

"Okay. Fine. Not now. But....soon."
