Through Heaven's Eyes (Perrie)

[Castiel Lysandr Flavian]

He was happy. He'd worked everything out two years earlier and gotten together with Perrie, and they were still going strong. He was currently working with the Ministry on strengthening ties between Italy and England in preparation for Juli and Henri'd wedding; it was exhilirating to finally be in the thick of things after spending so long in the quiet of the monastery. It was also exceedingly tiring to deal with these damned people day in and day out. He was eagerly awaiting the day that he could quietly settle down and get some sleep after the hoopla, once his sister was finally settled into her marriage and role as Empress.

Speaking of weddings...

He fingered the little box in the pocket of his jacket as he headed up to his office. Perrie had promised to meet him there for lunch, and he planned to pop the big question. He knew that she was a time-traveler, but what did it matter? She seemed to be stuck there, and he adored her.

Perrie looked in the mirrior real quick just to make sure she looked okay for her date. She fixed her tight curls and then nodded. Just right. She walked to the resteraunt she was meeting Cas at, two years. It had been two years since he asked her out and she couldn't be happier! She walked up smiling and kissed his cheek.

"Hi! You'll never guess what happened today." She grinned sitting down with her purse in her lap. Eight years she'd been stuck in the past, eight years and things got so much better than they would have anywhere else. For instance, here she had a boyfriend. In her time, she would never have gotten one.

He hugged Perrie and kissed the top of her head before pulling out her chair for her with a joking bow. Once she was seated, he sat down across from her, determined to not mess this up. It was just his entire future on the line. No big deal. Nothing to stress over...okay, it was a lot to stress over, but he wasn't going to! He'd gotten advice from Juli, so he knew he'd be fine....except that Juli had, literally, no romantic experience. She'd spent her whole life engaged to Henri...oh, no...

"What happened, Per?" he asked with a smile.

"I got an audition!" she squealed, "Its next week but I think I have a chance as going further than the audition this time."

She was so happy and there were several things that could make her happier. Some people around were looking at her, she was wearing her Slytherin tie, and they looked a little confused. A soft spoken girl like her a Slytherin? It was unheard of. She had been talking to someone where she worked earlier and they didn't believe she was in Slytherin; said she would have guessed Hufflepuff.

"Brilliant! I'm hoping that you can get further. Do you want Juli, Henri, and me to come along?" he asked.

If all went as planned, Perrie and Juli would be sisters-in-law soon. He was sure that they would be happy about it, since they had been best friends from practically the moment that they met, and Henri liked Perrie a lot. It would be as close to perfect as anyone could get with everything on a knife's edge as it had been lately, as long as he didn't screw it up. It was a lot of pressure on him.

"Just you should be enough." Perrie smiled and kissed his cheek. She sat back in her chair and sighed. She held up the menu in front of her face, no matter how long she would see him her stomach would always tighten up and she would feel strange. "So, I was thinking, maybe we should add another room to the house? Just in case we have extra guests than expected." She shrugged and bit her lip.

For two years, she had been together with him. Even when she wasn't sure they were going to last, there he was with a rose and a box of chocolates to make her feel better. They hardly ever fought over things, and he didn't mind that one day she might disappear. But what if it was a choice? A choice to go back, or stay there? Go through a life of tiring repetitive days, or a life you where you're happy? Perrie was going to choose happiness no matter what.
