After an 8 hour shift at the boathouse, Cassie ran up to her bedroom to get a shower. She took her shoes off and groaned in pain. Her feet had been killing her all day! She stepped out of her coffee stained clothes and stepped into the warm shower sheturned
on with her magic.
As she washed her hair, she thought about her life before she found out she was a witch;what it would be like if her mom was still here, and if she hadn't meet all of her amazing friends. She smiled at the memories that played in her head of whenher
mother and her were baking in the kitchen that one time when she was 7. Her body was covered in flour as she ran around the house and her mother was trying to get her to stop, but she could never get her. A single tear left her eye when sheturned
the water off.
'God, I miss those days.' She thought as she wrapped the white towel around her damp body.
Jake had just stepped in his room when he saw that his window was opened slightly. He went over to close it, but stopped when he noticed Cassie in her bedroom, putting her hair up in a towel to dry. She was dressed in a white spaghetti strap top and pinkboyshorts.
He couldn't help but stare at her beauty. She was all he wanted and needed, but onlyhe could keep his dreams of her to himself. Realising what he was doing, he shook his head, closed the window, and looked away from her.
'Great... now I'm gonna need a cold shower.'
He thought as he grabbed a towel from the closet.

When Cassie woke up the next day, something felt different. There was some kind of bad energy running through the house. It didn't feel right and it freaked her out. Cassie gave Jake a call and fortunately, he picked up at the second ring. "Hey, what's
up?"
"Hey, um, could you maybe come by to check the house? Something feels off." She asked. "Only if you don't mind. I get it if you have to do something."
He lightly chuckled, "No, no, it's fine. I'm on my way." They hung up and Cassie slipped on her blue robe and slippers. Jake threw on his basketball shorts and shoes, and ran over to Cassie's.
He unlocked the front door with his magic and stepped inside. "Cassie, I'm here!"
"Coming!"
Cassie walked downthe stairs to find Jake with furrowed eyebrows, looking around. "Your right. It doesn't feel normal." He said. "Stay behind me, just in case something happened to you."
She obeyed and stayed behind him. They were half way done with searching the house, until they felt the bad energy more by the glass door in the kitchen. "Great, they're back in town." Jake rubbed the ash and salt between his fingers.
"I'll call the others." Cassie said and ran up to her room to get her phone off the charger, as Jake got rid of the ash and salt that was put in all odd spots in the house.
