The meaning of that statement doesn't sink in immediately. Rather, Cassandra's mouth opens, making the shape of a 'w' to start asking what she could mean by that... and it stays open. Frozen in a question that would never be asked as the meaning finally registers.
She's had dreams about this moment, and nightmares.]
I-I...
[She's nervous, in her own way. The kind of nervous that Rapunzel has never really seen on Cass's face before. She can't lean away from her, there's no escaping this.
She can't look away from those emerald eyes, imploring her with the question she already knew the answer to. There's simply no other way around it. Feelings bubble to the surface that she'd been trying to control and push down for over two years.]

It's what got met to... to fall in love with you, all those years ago.
