That night ,after spilling her guts to Jacob, The Witch decided to pay the Wizard a visit. She dreaded having to have long conversations with him because he always knew what was bothering her but this was an important matter. She knocked on his door hoping he was home. When knocking didn't work she started yelling.
"YOU BETTER ANWSER ME!"she screamed and the Wizard pulled her quickly into his house.
"Are you trying to wake up the whole damn island!?"He asked
"Well you didn't answer when I knocked."she said twirling her hair
"That's because I didn't hear you I was asleep, it's the middle of the night Vivi."he said as poured himself some old coffee "And why are you here anyway?"he asked her.
"I have some things on my mind and I want your advice Gale."she explained. The Wizard was shocked to hear that, he didn't really think she'd ask him for advice.
"Okay, then tell me what's going on?"he asked
"Well, as you know Jacob has made it his mission to get to know me."she explain "So we started to grow a little closer to the point were I didn't find him annoying, then he brings this gift and I told him my name."she finished explaining
"Wait, you told Jacob your real name after he gave you something?"he asked
"Well I felt like I could trust him with the honer plus it was a fugue mushroom."she said "But that's not the point, I can't get him off my mind now and I'm confused."she told him.
The Wizard wanted to laugh but she seemed to be desperate about the whole situation. He started making some more coffee seeing as this was going to be a long talk.
"Well, have you ever thought that you might be falling for Jacob?"he asked her
"No, I don't have time to be in love or date."she said
"Why?, Jacob seems to love you and I think he'd be good for you."he told her " There's nothing wrong with falling in love Vivi, I've been in love before."he said
"True but you know love isn't something meant for people like us."she said "Being magical beings means we have a longer life span."she said
"Oh I see, you conflicted on falling for Jacob so you don't hurt yourself."he told her "If you do actually fall in love with him, your worried of out-living him."he said.
She didn't want to admit that was one of the reason of not falling in love. Out-living a love one is difficult for some of the magical world and some even tried to kill themselves. The Witch didn't want to go through something so rough as that and nor put that on Jacob.
" I'm not conflicted and I'm not in love with that big annoying dork."she said
"Denying your feelings might hurt you."the Wizard said "But if you don't want Jacob to know your feelings don't tell him."he said
" I don't have feelings for him and if I keep it that way neither person gets hurt in the process."she said as she walked out of the Wizards house.
"Well that didn't last to long, poor Vivi what a love sick fool."he went back to bed for the night.
The next day, Jacob was up making him self some breakfast. He had been neglecting his duties as a farm owner and needed make sure things were in order before he saw the Witch today.
"I wonder what Vivi is doing right now, probably thinking about how cool and awesome I am."he said to himself. Soon a hard knock echoed through Jacob's house. When Jacob answered the door a pair of arm wrapped around him like he was a small tree.
"Oh it's good to see you son."said his farther
"Hi dad, I didn't know you be here so soon"Jacob said "And could you loosen the grip it's hard to breath."he gasped, Luke let go of the poor boy and walked inside with a couple of suitcases.
"Uh dad what's with the suitcases?"he asked
"Why there for me and your mother, were staying for a little while."Luke said
"What, mom's here to!?"he asked
"Well yeah, how'd you think I got here so early."he said "Your mother wanted to get here the day ya told me about the hole in your roof."he told him.
Soon a women came in the doorway, she looked just like Jacob but older and female. Her eyes began to well up when she saw her son.
"Oh Jacob, my poor baby."she said "How in the hell did you get a hole in your roof?"she asked
"Umm it's kinda a long story mom."he shrugged
"Well no matter your dads gonna fix it and then it'll be all better."she said patting his head. Jacob was happy to see his parents if anything he could try to convince them about Vivi. His father started working on the roof while his mother was helped Jacob with his farm chores.
"So sweetie have you made any friends since you've been here?"she asked
"Yeah a couple I guess."Jacob said
"That's wonderful, have you found a girlfriend?"his mother asked
"Maybe, I don't know if she feels the same way but I think she's warming up to me."he said
"Hmm what makes you say that.?"she asked
"Well she's a little different from most girls."he explained
"What's so different about her Jac?"his mother asked
"Vivi is the kind of girl who doesn't open up to a lot of people."he said "And certain things make her angry or sad."he told his mother
"Ohh she doesn't sound all that different, she may not know how to show her feeling."she said.
Jacob thought about his mother's advice. Was she having trouble showing her feelings or was he pressuring her into something she didn't really want.
"Well things have been moving along nicely but maybe I'm demanding to much from her."he thought to himself. Jacob told his mother he had to run some errands and he be right back.
Jacob went to Vivi's house to go talk to her.
"Hey Vivi, I need to talk to you."he asked knocking on her door. She opened it and had a sad look on her face "Hey what's wrong with you?"he asked
"Nothing just I have to talk to you too."she said ushering him inside.
They sat at the small wooden table for a moment in silence.
"Jacob, have you ever wanted something but you know there's a big consequence because of it?"she asked
"No, why do you ask?"he asked
"Because I think I do have some feelings for you but."she stopped mid sentence
"But what,come on I gotta know."Jacob said
"But I don't think I can fully act upon them because I'm a witch."she said
"So, I don't care that your witch that's what I love about you."he said
"No you don't understand, since I'm a witch I have a longer life span meaning I would live longer then you."she explained "Falling in love only to end up alone is scary for me, I don't think I could handle the hurt."she said while tears rolled down her face. Jacob wiped the tears away and grabbed her hand.
"Look Vivi, I can't promise that I'm going to live forever that's impossible."he said "But I still have my whole life ahead of me and I want you in my life."Jacob told her
"But what if you do die Jacob, then I'll be alone."She said
"You can't worry about what if Vivi and I promise you won't be alone."he told her. She wanted to believe him and his words seem to clam her down. Jacob could see she was feeling scared about them being together and he didn't want that.
"Jacob, can I stay with you for the night?"she asked
"Umm sure but I don't think today is a good one."he said blushing
"Why not, after all that I just need to see were this could go."she said "Plus I've gotten use to not being completely alone."she said
"Umm maybe not, my place it's getting some repairs after you threw me into my roof."he said
"Oh right I forgot about that, sorry by the way."she said "If not your place why not stay here..with me?"she asked blushing
"As nice as that sounds I don't want to force anything Vivi, I don't want this to feel rushed so let's just take it slow and maybe this weekend I'll stay with you."he told.
Vivi wanted him to stay but it seemed like Jacob made a better point, she didn't want to seem to easy. Jacob felt better talking to her and kissed her cheek goodbye, she didn't freak out but she still was very surprised by it. As Jacob walked home he wondered to himself how he almost managed to get into Vivi's panties
"I am such an idiot but I should wait when the time it right, plus I need my parents gone before I try anything." he said to himself "And who knows how long they'll want to stay afterwards."he said walking back to his home.
Jacob's parents were already asleep when he got there. He walked down the hall to his room and laid on the bed. He jumped up when his mother came into his room yawning
"Oh sorry honey I thought this was bathroom."she said
"It's okay mom, I'm glad your up anyway I need to talk to you."he told her
"What's on your mind sweetheart?"she asked yawning
"Well I took your advice and my lady friend did open up to me."he said
"Good for you Jacob, so do we get to meet her?"she asked
"Uh she's not really ready to meet anyone yet but maybe in the future."Jacob scratched his head in embarrassment
"Well don't worry honey, I understand you two must need alone time."she said "I hated having to spend time with your father and not let your uncle know."she blushed
"Like when you and dad had picnics in the living room."Jacob asked
"Maybe but your father thought of those ideas, I always wanted to get little dirty when he was around."she said with a little giggle. Jacob like his mother's advice but he hated hearing the stories about her and his father having relations.
"Okay sweetie I won't keep you up all night."she said stretching "Goodnight Jacob."His mother yawned out while leaving
"Goodnight mom."Jacob said closing his door.
