Mr. Know-it-All
Prologue:
Pogue Parry was on the phone with his girlfriend when he heard a car door slam outside his apartment window. Making his way to the window, which pointed out towards the parking lot, and saw his twin sister grabbing a bag from her red BMW 640i convertible, and again he heard the car door slam.
"Hey, Kate, can I call you back? Payton just got home and she seems upset."
"Yes of course!" Kate replied, "do you want me to head over to talk to her?"
Pogue smiled at Kate's response. Kate and Payton were best friends, and anytime anything was wrong with one the other was quick to offer comfort. "I'm not sure, let me talk to her and see how mad she is. I'm sure she'll call you to talk about it anyway."
As Pogue hung up the phone he could feel his sister's power crackling towards him before he heard her footsteps on the stairs. She was the first recorded female that had the Power since the time of the Salem Witch Trials. It was almost a fluke that she had even received powers. Although, there had never been twins in the history of the Covenant, and the first born was always male, until her. She was older than Pogue by three minutes. So between the twins they had broken all of those "suppose too's".
Her power was tied heavily to her emotions, and for her to lose control of the tight reign she had over her powers, something big must've happened.
Pushing open the front door of the apartment their father had gotten for them, so the twin's could be close to Spencer's campus, he found Payton sitting on the sidewalk with a lit cigarette in her hand, a Vera Bradley duffle bag at her feet. Pogue sat down next to his sister, stroking her mid-back length brown hair, trying to comfort her.
Payton's hazel eyes met her brother's brown eyes before shaking her head. Taking another drag of her cigarette before looking straight ahead of her "me and Caleb broke up." Her voice held none of the emotion that her magic was expelling.
Pogue looked at her bag, noticing for the first time that it was the bag she would usually leave at the Danvers' mansion, only bringing it back to the apartment to do laundry and to switch stuff out. "Damn," he whispered, pulling his sister into a hug, not minding the smoke from her unfinished cigarette. "Do I need to knock some sense into him?"
Payton gave him a slight chuckle and shook her head "no, that's not necessary."
"You want to talk about it?"
Payton shook her head, pulling out of her brother's embrace, taking one more quick drag from her cigarette before flicking it onto the sidewalk, picking up her bag, and heading into the apartment.
Pulling out his cell phone he called his best friend, the person who had been dating his sister for two years, almost surprised when he picked up the line, "Caleb, what the hell happened?"
There was silence on the other line, "we broke up" was all the voice said before the line went dead.
Pogue looked down at his phone and shook his head "This is going to be a long summer."
A/N: I am super excited about this story! I have the next chapter already finished and between work and school I am hoping to finish the second real chapter sometime this next week. I hope y'all enjoyed it, and remember reviews are love! I'll try to post the first real chapter sometime later today, but I have a pesky biology research paper that I have to email to my professor tomorrow morning, so I might have to post-pone until tomorrow. Thanks for reading!
