Chapter 10:

Reid has been amazing this last week. I mean I know he's my boyfriend now. I love saying that. Reid Garwin is my boyfriend. It's so much fun. Even though, the first day we came out as a couple wasn't the way I wanted it to come out. Especially, since this stupid fake bottled blonde bitch threw herself at Reid in class this week. I'll tell you what happened.

Flashback:

So I was running late for 1st period. Someone decided it would be fun to stay over in my room, making me forget to set my alarm clock and then leave without waking me up. The warning bell had just rung, so I when I finally made it to class there was this blonde chick in my seat. Flirting with Reid and by the look on his face he really wanted her to just leave him alone but I can guess this girl was persistent.

I walk up to my seat and I see Chacyti and Tyler laughing to each other. By the look of it, they find this whole thing hilarious.

I clear my throat to get her attention. She doesn't even turn around. So I decide to tap her on her shoulder. This time she decides turn around to face me. I really just want to laugh in her face because she looks like a clown with all the makeup she used this morning. Definitely, trying to hard to get noticed. Note sarcasm.

"Can I help you?" She asks in a annoyed voice. Now, I was going to be nice but now it's on.

"Yes, you can get your fake blonde, nasally voice and nose job and get the hell out of my seat." I snapped. Which I assume a little to loudly because I can feel everyone's eyes on me. But I decide not to pay them any attention and focus on the girl next to Reid.

"And why would I do that? It's not like you're important." She asks in a nasally voice.

"Because if you don't get the hell away from my boyfriend, you're going to get my fist across that nose job and my foot somewhere up your ass. I wonder if I kick you in your ass are you going to talk like a normal human?" I say as if wondering that thought. And I hear a few snickers in the room.

"Yeah, right. Like Reid Garwin, Spenser's Premiere Playboy would have a girlfriend. Especially you. Newsflash, honey, Reid Garwin doesn't date. He does one night stands." She says as if that would somehow throw me for a loop. I take a step closer to her when I feel a hand grab my elbow. I turn and see Kate smiling, but her eyes are warning me not to get myself in trouble. I turn back to this girl.

"Newsflash, for you. He is my boyfriend. And you are getting on my last nerve. Now if you don't get out of my seat and your arm off my man, Kate will not be holding me bck anymore." I say. Suddenly Reid stands up and walks between us. He staring at the girl. I'm slightly shocked at first before he snakes his arm around my waist and pulls me closer to him. Kate's hand is no longer there.

"Phoenix, is my girlfriend. And for yor information, she's important to me." Reid says just before he brings me to him and his lips touch mine. I wrap my hands around his neck so the kiss can last longer. In the background, I hear applause and people whistling. I break away from Reid, since breathing was becoming hard. I stare into his eyes and smile.

I look down at the girl and her eyes are wide with surprise before she glares in fury. I just smile. She grabs her bag before brushing past me and Reid. Reid takes my hand and we walk back to our seats. I look at him and he's smiling smugly. I look over at Chacyti and Tyler. Tyler's smiling shyly but nods in approval. Chacyti gives me the thumbs up. I look over to Kate and Sarah and they're both smiling. I wink at the both of them. I flick my gaze over to Caleb and Pouge. Pouge is giving me thumbs up and Caleb is trying to look like what I did was wrong by I can see is lips twitch in a small smile. I take that as his approval.

I look over at Chase and see him staring at me and smiling. But this smile is different from the ones he's given me before. There's something under this smile but I can't tell what it is.

End Flashback.

I know what you might be thinking why I don't use my powers a lot. Well it's mostly because of my mom. She wasn't supposed to have a child with the powers. In my family is definitely different. I mean after the whole Salem Witch Trials, the woman in my family are supposed have two daughters. Those two daughters will have the powers of that involves manipulating and being able to feel peoples emotions, moving things with your mind, able to see the future, or having to be able to control nature. But our magic is only supposed to be used in pure acts. Not to hurt the innocent or use it for personal gain. I know it sounds like something from Charmed. But I don't fight demons and I'm an only child.

My mother only had one child. Me. My grandmother thought that I would be different from the rest because either daughter gets one of the four powers. My mom told me about my great-great-great grandmother predicted, that there would be one daughter born into the Johnson clan after the fifth generation. And that this one daughter will have not one but two powers as a teenager. And on there nineteenth birthday, she will gain the other two. In this, the young Johnson will have to discover side will she choose. For the reason is because this person embodies both good and evil. Which means she can be swayed to either side. On the night of her nineteenth birthday, she will have to make a choice.

My mother taught me how to control my powers. After telling me the story when I was 14 she said that she knows I will make the right choice. I want to make the right choice but it's hard to know what is going to be the right choice for me.

It's Friday and Reid and I are supposed to be rehearsing for the scene we have to do in class. This week has been great with Reid. I haven't seen him around any girls crowded around him or him flirting with any other girls. That makes me happy. To know he's changing for me. I turn the corner to the library but stop midway as what's in front of me has me frozen at the spot.

Reid is kissing some dirty blonde. He pushes her away as if realizing something but that action doesn't even register in my mind at this point. I'm too far past as I feel my control snap. I can't even control my reaction. I let the anger, betrayal and all the other emotions run through my body. I let out a piercing scream as I grab my head and Reid looks up t me. The dirty blonde decides she doesn't want to be here anymore and walks the opposite direction from where I am standing.

Reid looked shocked and remorseful.

"Phoenix. It's not what it looks like. Let me explain." He says distress lacing his voice. I try to calm down enough to hear what he has to say. He takes a step forward. That just makes my last bit of control I have out the window. Reid stops instep at the look on my face.

I close my eyes and concentrate. I throw my hands out so that Reid is flying towards the wall. I open my eyes back up and watch as his body is sent flying and when he hits the wall hard and falls to the ground. He lies there for a minute before groaning. He lifts up on his arms so he can sit up. He looks at me.

But this time, his eyes aren't ice blue that have become one of the things I've always loved about him. They're black as night. I gasp. As my mind goes back to the dream I had three weeks ago. My hands flys to my mouth as I start taking a few steps back. I can assume the expression on my face is full of fear.

"What...what are you?" I whisper. I don't even stay to find out. I turn around and run. I don't know where but I just know I have to keep running. Run away from my dream, those black eyes, and Reid. I don't know what he is but I can't be around him. Not even realizing that I just revealed my powers to him. Or at least a part of them.

I run into my dorm room and lock the door. I turn around and Chacyti looks at me in surprise.

"What happened?" She asks me.

I can't even think. I feel the tears start falling as I slide down against the door and sit on the floor as the tears fall freely now. Chacyti runs over to me and pulls me toward her. She starts rocking me back and forth trying to get me to clam down.

After I don't know how long, I feel that there are no more tears to be shed. I finally look at Chacyti.

"Phoenix, tell me what happened?" She asks softly.

"Chacyti, I have something to tell you." I say. "But I want you to call Kate and Sarah. I want to tell all of you and I only want to tell it once." I say my voice barely above a whisper but I guess she heard me because I hear her get on her phone and tell Sarah that she and Kate need to come to our room asap. She helps me off the floor and sets me on her bed. I know me having this secret is supposed to stay that way but I feel in my gut that I can trust them with this secret. I've only ever had my mom to talk about this stuff with but I need to talk about.

There's a knock on the door. She walks over to the door and unlocks it for Kate and Sarah.

"Come in." Chacyti says.

Sarah's the first to come in with Kate behind her. The both see me with my eyes red and puffy. They run over to me and ask me what happened.

"I'll tell you but I need all of you to sit on my bed. I need to look you in the eye when I tell you." They nod and all go and sit on my bed in a line.

"When I tell you, you have to promise that you wont tell anyone, not even Caleb, Pouge, or Tyler. I'll them when I'm ready." I look at them and they all nod in understanding.

"OK, first I have to tell you guys that I'm a witch. I mean the kind that has powers and stuff. I can move things with my mind and I can feel and manipulate others emotions. But I'm not allowed use my powers for personal gain or use it as a way to harm the innocent. There will be consequences if I do." I pause before I continue. "Do you want me to show you one of my powers?" I ask.

"Yeah." Kate says.

I nod. I look at the TV. I lift my hand and it starts to levitate. I keep it like that for another 30 seconds before I slowly set it back down. I turn back to look at them and they have all different emotions on there faces. Kate looked at the TV in astonishment. Sarah looked in awe and Chacyti just looked plain surprised.

I then tell them the story about my family. About how many powers there are. The fact that I will inherit all four powers. When I finish I wait for one of them to say something. When no ones does I look down in my lap.

"I knew there was something different about you." This voice says in amusement. I look at Chacyti and smile.

"Yeah, I mean that's really cool. I kinda wish I had a least one of the power you have or will have." Kate says trying to decide which one she means. I laugh.

"Why'd you tell us?" Sarah as in curiosity.

"I wanted you guys to know because today I saw Reid kissing some dirty blonde. When I saw it I just lost it. He tried to explain but he took a steps towards me and I don't know why but I couldn't handle it. I couldn't control my power. I sent him flying into a wall." I say looking down at my feet.

"Good." Kate says with venom in her voice.

"Kate. That's not nice."

"It's wasn't supposed to be. That's what he gets. That jackass was kissing some other girl and what did you expect her to do? Just stand there and watch them make out? She should've sent his ass into the next year." Kate says.

"Sorry, Sarah but I agree with Kate. Not about that last part but Phoenix might not have meant to loose control of her powers like that but he deserved exactly what he got." Chacytisays in defending Kate.

"I agree with you guys but she might regret doing it." Sarah says. I think about that. Do I regret it? Maybe. I mean I could've listened to his side but even if I had to do it over again it would have be the same result.

"Look, I know you guys are on my side and everything but you can't tell the guys. This is a secret that has to stay between the four of us. I want to be the one that explains everything to them. So, Kate no telling Pouge no matter what. Chacyti no telling Tyler. And Sarah no telling Caleb. " I say. They all nod.

"I have an idea. Instead of going out. Let's have a girl's night in. We can order pizza, pig out on chocolate and other things that aren't good for us and watch movies." Kate suggest.

I smile. "I like it. Let's do it." I say loving the plan.

"Okay, Sarah and I are going to get the food, you guys can get changed and then we'll order pizza when we get back and drool over all the hotties in each movie."

"Great." I say.

They leave and Chacyti and I change into some comfortable pajamas. When Kate and Sarah get back, they've already changed. We order the pizza and start eating the junk food. And watch movies until really late at night.

I fall asleep thinking how grateful I am to have friends who don't mind I have powers and still want to be friends with me after they know my secret.
