Chapter 2: Chapter 2

Chapter Text

Cassandra never thought of acting again as a miracle. She had always thought that her brain tumor would kill her one day. One day. Until the surgery she refused from saved her. While, Cassandra walked into the annex with fully bound confidence, she stopped to think about one thing. She never went to college because of the brain tumor. Yes, she did have thoughts about going back to school and getting that college diploma. That was an extrodinary thing, but how can she juggle being a librarian and going to school all at the same time? That was indeed a thought for the future.+
As Cassandra walked to the library, she turned around to see Jacob sitting in a chair reading a book called, "An Actress's guide to getting confidence." Okay she was 10 minutes early from 8:20 and the others don't come in until 9.
Jacob looked up from the book about getting confidence up, only to see Cassandra standing there.
"Bit early isn't it Cass."
Cassandra stood there looking at Jacob. Uhoh. He's mad. Cassandra had met a few set directors that preferred her to be there at 9 AM on the dot. She always had her best friend, Brody to cover up like he wanted to get Cassandra ready early. Brody and Cassandra lost contact soon. He requested to talk to her on Facebook, but she didn't have one at the time.
"Sorry if I am early, Jacob. I hope that doesn't upset you in anyway possible."
Jacob looked at Cassandra really funny. What got an idea into Cassandra's head like that? She was nervous as you can tell by the way she was standing.
"It's fine Cassandra I'm not mad, just kind of surprised you know most actors never want to show up on time."
Cassandra stood there happily with a smile on her face. Never mind about that past or the future, she'll probably should think about it later. Hopefully this acting lesson can get her confidence up.
Jacob looked at Cassandra smile so brightly. Gosh, she's adorable when she smiles, he thought. Then he saw her preform a piece of writing by William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Man, she can get into character well. Besides it's only me that's watching her. Iread many things about Juliet, but Cassandracan top her off, better than anyone.

When Cassandra finished her death scene when Juliet kills herself, Jacob was really impressed. So impressed that he jumped out of his chair clapping like crazy and ran over pick up Cassandra and hug her like crazy. That moment ended when Flynn and Eve came into the library and saw Jacob's performance. Ezekiel was right behind Flynn and Eve, on his phone, video taping Jacob.
"Best souvenir ever!!!" Ezekiel said to Jacob when he came in. Jacob however was ticked off and ran after Ezekiel yelling "JONES!!!!!!" as he ran.
Cassandra wasn't expediting that hug from Jacob, but it did make her giggle a little. Enough to have Eve and Flynn go over to Cassandra. Cassandra was scared that she might have to give up her acting career secret to Flynn and Eve.
"What was that all about Cassandra?!" Flynn asked. Cassandra can try to lie about the circumstance, but she gave her lie a go.
"Well, I told Jacob that I was considering going back to college and he hugged me."
Eve looked at Cassandra, while Cassandra knowing that she never can lie. She gave it her best go. Before she knew it, Flynn and Eve was hugging Cassandra.
"Your really considering going to college." Eve asked Cassandra.
Cassandra smiled and nodded her head. She was thinking about it, but she wanted to do it.
"Actually, I am. I just need to fill out a college application. I might need you guys help though to help me pick out the best school."
Flynn smiled and looked at Cassandra and said, "Well try applying for any college you want, Cassandra. You could even try Harvard if you want."
"Well okay I'll consider one of them. I'm going to see if I can find Stone and Ezekiel. I'll see you guys later!"
As Cassandra turned around she thought to herself. Maybe I could go to college, takeacting lessons from Jacob, and still be alibrarian. Maybe this could work out after all.
