Cass is a very fun type of Mom. She plays video games, sports, and dances to music. She is very much the kind of person to sing and dance in the kitchen. When she does that, she tells whoever's knocking on the door to come on in, which could be very dangerous for both her and Serena.

History:

Cass had a pretty calm 15 years at the start of her life. Then her parents kept trying to pressure her into joining the Sharing and being social. Not wanting to do that, she ran away for a while. She ran into an old dying man who had kept a blue box with him and told her to keep it safe. Nichole Matthews found out she had it and it led to her giving the blue box to Jake.

Cass had been upset for a while, until she got it back. A few weeks later, she met Ty Summers. He was a dorky kind of kid, but she didn't mind. She rather enjoyed hanging out with him. Not too long after, she met Jay McRae, and thought she had found the love of her life.

However, after their first night, it started to go downhill. She got pregnant, and Jay kept trying to pressure her into getting an abortion. She had that going on, and she also was now going through devastation when Ty died. She never really understood how he died or anything. She kept to herself, not answering phone calls, answering the door, or going out anymore. The day Nichole called her, she almost didn't want to answer, but something was telling her. That was when she found out that the Ellimist brought Ty back. Only it wasn't Ty Summers anymore...

His name....was Ty Smith. It was still the same person, but a different look and a different last name. She didn't believe him at first, but after a little convincing, she gave in. Cass could never understand why exactly her heart burst back into life then--at least, not until later.

Cass had had to face it at some point, and she was at the mall a few weeks later, alone. She decided to call her parents and tell her about baby Tyler. In a nutshell, they got in a nasty argument and they disowned her. She was really upset and Ty came at that time and helped to comfort her. It was then she found out why her heart burst. After accidentally calling him "Baby" and trying to cover it up by saying Baby Tyler kicked. Of course, he knew that was a lie, and that day they started dating. That was also the same day they had their first fight, too...

That same day, Jay lit up her house into flames, thinking she was inside, and killed her parents and her would-be younger brother. When her and Ty got there, she almost ran in there, but Ty was able to stop her from doing that. He said that he saw Jay fleeing the scene and blamed him for what he did, but Cass thought that Jay was too good for that. Boy, did she think wrong...She found out from Jay, without him realizing it, that he did try to kill her.

Not too long after that, when Cass was eight months along, Jay found out she was still alive and kidnapped her. If it wasn't for Ty's great timing, she would have been without a baby, and probably without her life, too...

Cass gave birth to Tyler in that cave, Ty passed out for the first part, Nichole not knowing what to do, and later, Cassie helping. It was crazy, and Cass got Ty up by squeezing his fingers.

A year after that, and Ty and Cass were moved in together, and they spent many nights together. But one night, Cass felt him kiss her lips, though her body wouldn't allow her to wake up fully, and so fell asleep again. The next time she woke up, he was gone....out of her life, and for who knows how long...

Cass read the note and just about died. To this day, she still cries herself to sleep...Though she learned how to silently now. The only time she makes any sound is if she had nightmares. She wears Ty's ring all the time on her left ring finger, and all the rumors about her in the neighborhood changed from "The Neighborhood Slut went at it again" to "She's settling down?!" and praises of congratulations all around. Oh, how she wished that were true..

Not too long after, Cass started feeling sick in the mornings. When she went to the doctor, she found out she was pregnant again. This time, she was able to have her baby in a hospital, and she wasn't kidnapped. In fact, 'Rena was about two days late--born on Ty's birthday...

Today, Cass still lives in the same house, and Serena takes turns living with her and Tyler, who, for whatever reason, insists on being called Lee, just like Cass insists on calling him 'Tyler', and Serena insists on calling him 'Leroy.' Serena was in a tough relationship for two years, but now as far as Cass knows she's not seeing anyone. Neither is Tyler. And she secretly hopes it stays that way.

Some days, she'll catch herself staring at Serena, because her personality is so much like her father's...she even had his grin. And on her birthday, she almost always tried hiding herself.

Anything Else: Cass lost self-esteem when she was with Jay; gained it back when she was with Ty; lost just about all of it when he left, thinking, despite what the note says, that it was somehow her fault.

She also has three jobs, one of them being unknown to Tyler or Serena. She works at a Grocery Store on Weekends. She's also the Aerobics instructor at the local College. The one Tyler and Serena don't know about is she works at a bar; one of the more well-known ones.

Cass was sleeping peacefully and was very comfortable where she was, snuggling Ty's side, and sleeping. She didn't feel him move off the bed or put the ring on her hand. She woke up slightly when his lips went on hers and she gave a half smile, falling asleep after hearing him go in to see Tyler.

In the morning, Cass woke up and looked around the room for Ty. "Baby?" That was when she found the note...

Cass,
Baby, I want you to know that I love you more than anything, and you mean the world to me. I've done some things--horrible things that I regret. I'm going to end up getting someone hurt some day. The last thing I want is to hurt you. So...I'm leaving for a while. I don't know when, but I promise I'll be back for you. Take care, Baby. See you as soon as I can.
Love,
Tyler Vincent Smith

Cass felt tears pouring out of her eyes and she tossed the note to the floor, crying uncontrollably. It took about ten minutes to be able to see, but she wasn't herself at that moment. "Damn you, Ty." The words were soft, and it surprised her for a minute. She stood up and picked up a glass that she had used that previous morning. She stared at it, and she swore she saw him behind her. She turned and tossed the glass against the wall. "I hate you!" She grabbed another one and tossed it, almost as if she were trying to hit the person she thought she knew, the one who wasn't even there anymore. "I hate you for leaving me." She yelled this time, putting more force behind her tosses. "I hate you for leaving Tyler when you promised....you promised[/i] to help raise him as if he were your own." Tossed another. "I hate you for breaking my heart into a million pieces and leaving me here to pick myself back up again." Yet another. She went to the wall that was now coffee stained and hit it with her fists one time, leaving them there, and then sliding down to her knees. The tears came down again. "Was I not good enough for you?" She flattened her hand and pressed her palms on the wall. "I hate you the most because I still love you..." She took a staggering breath. "I still love you, and I don't think...No...I know I won't be able to move on...ever....but Damn it, I didn't deserve this...not after Jay...Where are you, Ty? I want you to come back..."

She cried silent tears for a few more moments and then spoke again, still as if Ty was standing right there listening to her. "I trusted you...I trusted you with my life and my heart and my soul. And you LEAVE me....You were the best thing to ever happen to me....and you claim that I mean the world to you.....well, this is sure as hell of a way to show it, isn't it?" she said bitterly. "I'm still waiting, Baby...." the words soft again and full of remorse. "I'll always be waiting..." With that, she numbly started picking up the pieces...
