Anna hasn't arrived yet, and I wanted to introduce the rest of us to her. Reid and Tyler were already playing a game of pool. Pogue was sitting with Kate, his girlfriend, and I was sitting with Sara, who was talking to Kate.
"So man, what did you think about the new girl?" Pogue eyed me. The girls stopped talking a listened to the conversation.
"She seems nice, but she ran away from me twice, so I don't know if she likes me or not." I answered. It was painful to talk about her running away from me. I didn't like the feel of rejection from her. It hurt.
"I thought she was nice." said Kate. "She doesn't seem like a slut, but she does have a few guys after."
"Yeah, I agree." added Sara. "She seems nice, but is really shy, so she keeps to herself."
Just then, everybody in Nicky's was silent and looking towards the door. There was a group of women in men in leather. The leader had raven black hair and a goatee, he was wearing only black like the rest of the group. I noticed his eyes were a green, and it reminded me of somebody.
"Wow, I guess Nicky's has a new gang around here. They probably are selling drugs wearing that much leather." Pogue chuckled. Reid and Tyler walked over discussing about their pool game. I looked over at the group again, and noticed Anna. She was next to a woman that looked so familiar. Anna looked over at us, and my heart started sprinting, she's beautiful. She turned back to the woman and whispered something, then glanced back at us. The woman nodded her head in approval, and Anna left her walking towards us.
"So you finally showed up." Said Reid the moron he is.
"Yeah, there was a gathering earlier and they wanted to come here. So I drove my Ducati here, so here I am." She told us.
"So do you mind introducing me to the lady with the brown hair that you were talking to." Replied Reid. "She is hot!" Anna just stared at him then burst into laughter.
"That's my mom. She's kinda taken' so don't even try." Reid was frozen, and everybody started laughing.
"Well, let me introduce you to everybody," I said. "That's Kate, Tyler, and Reid. Of course you already know me, Sara, and Pogue." She nodded her head hello.
"So you have a Ducati?" asked Pogue, interested.
"Yeah," answered Anna. "It's the black one, that is totally the most amazing bike in the world." She said with a dreamy voice.
"Wow, and we thought that Pogue was that in love with his Ducati. You're worse than him." Said Tyler.
"Put a sock in it baby boy." Retorted Pogue. Anna started laughing, it was like bells to my ears.
"So do you want to play pool with us?" asked Reid. "I can go easy on you if you'd like."
"Okay, winner gets twenty bucks." Said Anna
"And loser kisses the winner," with that Reid leaned forward. Anna leaned forward only inches away from his face.
"Bring it on." She whispered. She took off her jacket and the first thing I saw was a tattoo on her shoulder blade. My eyes traveled to her corset shirt that showed another tattoo that I couldn't see. All of us got up to watch the game. When Anna leaned forward I saw a necklace that showed something oddly familiar. Then I heard a CLANK! sound, and got three balls in. "I don't think you need to be easy on me." she told Reid with an opened mouth. She leaned forward, when I saw her hidden tattoo. That's when I realized it was from the Book of Damnation.
~ Anna~
"So you finally showed up." said a boy with blonde hair.
"Yeah, there was a gathering earlier and they wanted to come here. So I drove my Ducati here, so here I am." I said the easiest lie.
"So do you mind introducing me to the lady with the brown hair that you were talking to." Replied the boy. "She is hot!" I froze, then burst out laughing. Nobody ever told me my mom was hot! Well, Ipswich is very surprising place. I continued laughing, until I finally caught my breath to tell him the news.
"That's my mom. She's kinda taken' so don't even try." Reid froze in his spot staring at me, eyes wide. Everybody erupted with laughter. When the laughter died down, Caleb spoke.
"Well, let me introduce you to everybody." He pointed to the people as he called their names. "That's Kate, Tyler, and Reid. Of course you already know me, Sara, and Pogue." I nodded my head in greeting.
"So, you have a Ducati?" asked Pogue. I looked over at him, my eyes sparkling.
"Yeah," I answered. "It's the black one, that is totally the most amazing bike in the world." I started to day dream about the bike and the speed it goes up to.
"Wow, and we thought that Pogue was that in love with his Ducati. You're worse than him." Said Tyler.
"Put a sock in it baby boy." responded Pogue. I started laughing at how much they act so childish.
"So do you want to play pool with us?" said Reid. "I can go easy on you if you'd like?" A little bit cocky there.
"Okay winner gets twenty bucks." I said.
"And loser kisses the winner," he leaned forward. I moved forward too, until our faces were inches apart.
"Bring it on." I whispered. I backed up and took off my jacket, and walked over to the pool tables. I set my mark, and then CLANK! three balls in. "I don't think you need to be easy on me." I told an opened mouthed Reid. I leaned forward again, and continued the game.
"I can't believe I lost to a girl, and I lost twenty BUCKS!!!" shouted Reid. Everybody was laughing, except for Caleb. Tonight he was acting very strange and very… stiff.
"Well, I guess that you shouldn't be such a cocky jackass." I said smiling at him. He started mumbling profanities. I then saw my parents walking out of Nicky's; my dad eyed waiting for me to follow. Letting out a sigh, I went to the table to grab my jacket. "I have to go. My dad and mom are leaving, but I'll see you guys at school." I said and walked over to my parents.
"Ready to go?" asked my mom.
"Yeah, I'll meet you at home." I walked out of Nicky's, that's when I spotted him. The boy was leaning against the wall, staring right at me. He smiled at me, and then when the crowed walked in front of him, he disappeared.
I shook my head and got on my Ducati, I turned it on a sped home. Now all I'm going to be wondering about, is what was the boys name.
I arrived home twenty minutes later, with my head pounding. With my hand on my head, I walked to the kitchen in need of a Motrin. That's when hell broke loose.
I screamed on top of my lungs, all the energy was rushing to my head; bringing pain and misery along with it. My lungs were failing, and I couldn't catch my breath while I'm still screaming in agony. I heard my mom rush in, yelling for my father, but the pain still continued.
"Anna," my mom said. "Anna please calm down. Oh my god, get in here Nick!!" screamed my mom. Still the pain never ceased.
My father walked in, with pain in his eyes; looking down at me on the kitchen tile screaming for my life. He kneeled down next to me.
"She's becoming a witch." He said to himself with surprise. My mother turned to him with wide eyes.
"No! Women are not supposed to be cursed with this power! It's for men, not women! She can't have this power!!" my mom going into hysterics.
My father stared at me and stroked my hair, brushing it from my face. His cool hands touched my brow and said a spell in Spanish. I couldn't understand it, but the pain was fading; leaving me whimpering then complete silence.
I sat up and looked into my mother's tear soaked eyes, then into my father's. My head didn't hurt anymore, but I felt powerful. My father petted my hair and looked me into the eyes.
"Anna," he said. "Do you know what has happened?" I shook my head, not knowing the answer. "Anna, you are not just Wiccan, but a witch now. The magic I carry is now in you." I stared at him in disbelief. I can't be a witch like my dad.
