Magic can make or break a guy. She's got that power among us. If she says you suck no one will ever date you. The guys flock around her to get her to pay attention to her. Beautiful people have that affect on us. I guess when you live in extreme poverty like us beauty is amazing. Like how they used to run to Medda thinking her the most beautiful woman in the world, until Magic came that is.
Magic when she walked in the door and everyone stopped breathing. I guess I did too. Because she is beautiful. Les called her an angel and she laughed at him. Spot held her protectively that first night before he left and she stayed, they exchanged quiet words and a quick kiss. Surprising everyone when she latched onto Blink with Spot still there and Spot not minding a bit. We all knew she was different.
She was a common fixture at the lodging house, hanging off one guy one night another the next. She would unwittingly be writing out their sexual future as she led them up to bed. I was never one of the guys vying for her attention. Neither was Dutchy. We found it hilarious when she would pick a guy and to see him beam. Les continued to call her an Angel. She would always insist to him that she was not an angel.
"Why not, your pretty and good!" Les would say.
"Where did you get that idea?" She would ask.
"All the boys say you are." Les said in a perfectly innocent way.
"I am not a good person." She would say giving him a kiss on the cheek, David looking jealously at his little brother would try and get Magic's attention.
Magic would never try and get me or Dutchy in bed. We hoped no one would ever realize this but Luck isn't exactly my best friend and Race pointed it out one night. Magic smiled and came over next to me kissing me gently. I had no clue how to respond and ended up just looking like an idiot.
"Shy?" she asked me Tugging my hand and pulling me upstairs, I had no choice no one ever turned her down. If I did some one would notice. She sat down on the bed kissing me and unbuttoning my shirt.
"No." I whispered.
"What?" She asked stopping quietly.
"I'm not like that." I said for lack of a better phrase. "I'm a, well you know."
She looked at me. "Boy kissah?"
"Yeah." I said "Please don't tell." She looked at me her hand lightly holding the golden cross around her neck and lay down in my bed hugging me to her.
The next morning there was a chorus of cat calls as we walked down and a look of betrayal on Dutchy's Face. Magic's face didn't show a hint of what she was going to say. The day carried on and she met us in Tibby's, sitting down with me and Dutchy and about to open her mouth.
"Hey Specs' Close ya dumb mouth!" Race said to the fact That I had food in my opne mouth from shock Magic was sitting with us,
"I think it's a talented mouth." Magic said smiling at me and Dutchy.
I don't care what she says, She's a good person.
