Chapter 1: Back

Emma POV

I groaned, groggily opening my eyes. A ray of light shone through the closed blinds. What time was it? I heard the door of my bedroom creak open and I tried harder to wake myself up.

"Emma, I'm leaving, Andi will—EMMA! Why are you still in bed?! Get up, you're gonna be late for school!" Dad shouted.

Ohhh. School started again today. Right, I should probably get up. No, I should really get up. Like, right now!

"Sorry Dad! I must've forget to set my alarm! I won't be late, I promise, you go ahead," I assured him.

"You better be sweetie, I will not let my daughter be late on her first day back," Dad warned.

I nodded, pushing him towards the door, finally out of bed. "I won't Dad I promise. Andi and I will be there."

After giving me another warning, repeating almost every word, he left. I closed the door and let out a—slightly panicked—sigh. I looked at my clock. 8:10. What?! School started at 8:30!

"Oh no," I said to myself. I was going to be late. Emma Alonso, principal's daughter, late for school. And on the first day back. "Oh no," I repeated. "Not good. Definitely not good."

Calm down Emma! You're a witch remember? You have these things called powers? That you could use to, you know, get ready? Remember?

I sighed in relief, nodding to myself. I had powers. I'd be ready in now time. I cast a quick spell in my head, smiling at the pink/purple magic that appeared in my palm.

Give me a tool

To get ready for school.

I cast the spell and was immediately dressed in my uniform, my hair in perfect waves. I smiled and went to the kitchen to find something small I could have for a quick breakfast.

When I walked in I saw Andi already there. Well, I saw the back of Andi. She was rummaging through my fridge, looking for some of my food to steal, probably.

"Find anything? I think there's some left over anchovi pizza. That's considered breakfast for you, right Andi?" I said sweetly.

Andi just rolled her eyes, not even twitching when I caught her. I couldn't even scare her a little? Aw.

"That's gross, Em, and you know it. I was looking for something to drink actually. Don't you have any juice? I mean, come on there's not even orange juice!"

It was my turn to roll my eyes. "I'm so sorry we can't take care of your 'juice needs' but right now, we're gonna be late. Just take some water or buy something at school. We need to go!"

Andi groaned and reluctantly did as I told her, grabbing a bottle of water. "Why can't you just teletransport us there?"

I rose an eyebrow. "And land in the pool?"

Her response was another groan. "Hasn't Jax helped you with that by now? With all the time he's hanging around you, you'd think he'd actually do something useful."

"Hey! Leave Jax alone. He's very helpful with my magic. It's not his fault I still can't do the transportation spell," I defended my boyfriend. I grinned at that. Boyfriend. Jax was my boyfriend.

Last semester, after we had turned Philip human and escaped from the video game, I finally made a choice. It was either Daniel, or Jax. Once and for all. And I chose Jax.

I couldn't be happier about it.

Jax was the perfect boyfriend. He was sweet, funny, romantic, protective, and he loved me. He took me on a few dates, all perfect, and for Christmas he got me the prettiest charm bracelet. And I loved him back. A lot.

Daniel and I still talked, although it was a little awkward. He had never been mad at me, he respected that it was my choice. I guess it could also have something to do with Mia. After we got out of the game, they had talked, too, and Daniel had forgiven her for the spider seal. They were pretty close now.

I guess since we're talking relationships, I might as well update you on the others. Maddie and Diego were still as cutely gross as ever. Andi and Philip were able to be together properly, and Gigi had given them the ship name 'Phandi'. It was cute, seeing Andi with a guy she actually liked. Plus Philip was pretty great.

That pretty much summed up all our 'love lives' for you helpless romantics out there.

Andi rolled her eyes at my defensiveness. "Come on, before we end up being late."

I rolled my eyes back and grabbed an apple, which was the first thing I got my hands on.

We rushed out the door, then proceeded to rush to school.

Andi and I had made it to school on time, arriving only seconds before the bell. The day had been tiring, but now it was lunch. I sat at a table in the cafeteria, along with Jax, Andi, and Philip.

Philip was talking about something Mrs Van Pelt had said in an argument with Maddie. I vaguely registered Andi's laughter and a chuckle from Jax.

My mind was elsewhere, thinking about a dream I had had last night, one that had only come back to me a while ago. It had seemed so real. I couldn't understand how I had forget it. It was one of those dreams, that when a witch had them, you were sure they would come true.

That thought terrified.

"You okay Em?" Jax asked me, taking my hand gently. I looked to him to find concern clear in his face.

I shook my head trying to clear it. "I'm fine. Just thinking about some school work I have to do," I told him. It wasn't a lie, I would never lie to Jax. I just couldn't. But it wasn't the complete truth either.

He didn't look convinced. "Talk to me about it later?" he asked hopefully.

I nodded, giving his hand a light reassuring squeeze. He squeezed mine in return.

The dream was clear in my mind, the events coming back to me quickly. I would tell Jax. Maybe it would help a little. I shook my head again, desperately trying to push it to the back of my mind for now.

Every year, we faced a different challenge. The first one was the evil, ex chosen one, principal. The next year, my evil clone, 'E'. I hated her the most. And finally this year, when Mia wanted revenge on witches, and thought it would be best to get that through me.

But Mia had changed. She had forgiven and forgot, and so had I. We were now pretty close friends. But that was this years threat over. We had won that battle. This year would be great, and we would actually be able to be together and have fun in peace.

Right?


Hi! This is my first attempt at an EWW show, and I guess it's what I imagine could happen next. I love Every Witch Way and my otp for the show is definitely Jemma. I was so happy with the season three ending! Team Jax!

So I just got this idea and thought I would give it a shot.

Should I?

Review and tell me?

Bye 👋
