Chapter 1
It started off as an ordinary day like any other.
I'd just come home from Faerie. After high school, Sabrina and I had gotten a house together. Just like we'd wanted, it was near Ferryport Landing but still close to the city. But Sabrina said she would only live with me on one condition: I had to get a job.
"I'm going to college, Puck!" Sabrina had told me. "It's either you get a job or we won't be living together! Unless you wanna live with me at my parents' place..."
So I'd gone to my mother and told her that I wanted to be king. She was way too happy when I told her that.
"Oh, Puck, I knew you'd want to be king someday!" my mother had exclaimed.
A couple of days later was my coronation and I was officially the King of Faerie.
Sabrina wasn't too happy about going to the ball afterwards, though. But neither was I.
Anyway, so I'd just gotten home from Faerie.
"Hey," Sabrina said and smiled at me. She was watching TV on the couch.
"Hi," I answered and went over to kiss her.
"How was work?" Sabrina asked and turned her attention back to the TV.
I groaned. "Sometimes I wonder if it would have been better to let you go live with your parents!" I replied.
Sabrina shrugged. "We definitely wouldn't fight as much," she pointed out.
We never really had big fights, just small ones about stupid stuff. Like who forgot to flush the toilet again. (It's always me!)
"You got that right," I muttered.
Sabrina narrowed her eyes at me.
I winked at her. "Just kidding, Grimm!"
Sabrina turned back to the TV again. "It's your turn to pay the bills," she told me.
I smirked mischievously at her. "I have a better idea..." I sat down next to her and pulled her into my lap.
"Puck!" Sabrina giggled.
I kissed her and she (obviously) kissed me back.
"I will never regret moving in with you," I murmured.
Sabrina smiled back at me. "Neither will I, Fairy Boy," she answered.
I leaned in to kiss her again but she stopped me.
"But we won't be living together if you forget to pay the bills," Sabrina told me.
I groaned. "OK, OK, but one more?"
Sabrina smiled and rolled her eyes but she kissed me again. "Alright, there's your one more, now go pay the bills!"
I grinned and got up to go to our small kitchen. We always left all the mail on the kitchen table.
"I haven't looked through anything yet," Sabrina called out. "So can you tell me if there's anything in there for me?"
"Sure," I replied.
I looked through the mail, searching for the bills or anything with Sabrina's name on it. I found neither.
Instead I found an envelope with my name on it.
"I got a letter," I said and frowned.
"From who?" Sabrina asked.
I grabbed the envelope and looked at who it was from.
"Puck?" Sabrina said and looked at me oddly. "Who's the letter from?"
"Just an old friend," I muttered. "An old, old friend. One that I'd thought I'd never hear from again."
"Oh," Sabrina frowned. "Who is he?"
She. You mean she.
"I've never talked about this friend before," I answered, staring at the envelope.
"Oh," Sabrina repeated and got up. "Tell me about this friend then."
I slapped the envelope down on the table, making sure it was facing down.
"I use to be really close with this friend," I told her. "This friend was the one who gave me my green hoodie."
Sabrina raised her eyebrows. "I always wondered who gave you that old thing," she said.
When I'd started to grow out of it, I'd asked (OK, well demanded) the Marshmallow to put a spell on it so that it'd always fit me. I still wore it almost every day.
"Well, aren't you going to read it?" Sabrina asked impatiently.
"Uh, yeah," I answered and slid the envelope off the table.
Sabrina stared at it curiously.
"I'll be in our room ," I said and quickly headed towards our bedroom.
"What about the bills?!" Sabrina exclaimed.
"I'll pay them later!" I answered.
In my room I sat down on my bed and stared at the name if the girl who'd sent me the letter.
Samantha Grindall.
