Chapter 13

I was walking outside of Fedrick's house when I saw a sort of wall surrounding part of the house. Like a force field, like if there was a clear wall hiding it from the outside. I was tempted enough to walk through it to the other side and saw that it wasn't hiding the house like I thought it was, it was hiding something inside that was too far to really see. But after a minute before I could make out and figure out what the object was, I was thrown back outside of the wall. I tried to go back inside but it wouldn't let me, the wall had turned solid. The weird thing is that the animals were able to to go through without a problem and they wouldn't be thrown out of it like I was. So guess that you could go through the wall if you didn't know what was, but you wouldn't see the thing because you didn't know it was there. Then you would just keep going on for miles into the forest, well that was my assumption.

I decided i would give it some time before I tried again. While giving it some time I was thinking if it did the same with Fedrick or if it was just so that anyone else couldn't see it. Then it hit me, it was for people with magic, but also it only let Fedrick in for as long as he wanted because he made it. He did it so that in case I found it I couldn't see what was there. He was really smart, more than I gave him credit for. I decided to go back inside because it got late and I didn't want Fedrick to see that I had found the thing he was hiding or his little hiding place.

"Hey! Sapphire I'm home come down for dinner!" he shouted from the kitchen when he arrived.

"I'm coming" I said back but not loud enough so he would hear me. I was annoyed just by hearing his voice.

I went down after about 5 minutes he had called me and the food was already cooked and served. He must have used magic, no wonder his food was good now he didn't do it.

"Is it good?"

"Yes and I doubt that if you use magic it will not be good. It has to be if not your magic does not work.

"Yeah you are right, um I don't know if it's just me but are you irritated?"

"No, what made you think that?"

"The way you responded to me earlier, when I called you done to eat."

'Shit' I thought to myself and was thankful I was the only one out of all then to be able to read minds.

"So, are you?"

"Of course not! But I will get annoyed if you don't stop asking stupid questions" I said in the most playful voice I could but it came out worst than I thought.

"Alright sorry" he said starting to eat and finally stop talking.

'Yeah f**cking right you are sorry, you are probably sorry that i hate you so much' I thought, smiling to hide what I truly felt.

When I was done I excused myself and walked to my room. I was not about to act as if I actually wanted to stay with him or that I cared. I remember how bad it went last time that I was glad I could go to school and not just be locked up in the house with him. I really wanted to know where he went though, did he go into the little realm he had outside.

I went to my room and went to sleep the instant I hit the bed. The next day I woke early and so I got ready and decided to leave for school before he woke up. I got to school at about 7:20 so I decided to just sit under a tree and read the book I was caring with me, "Can a Lie Really save you?" It is very interesting about a girl who almost got killed and for that a guy got hurt, which caused for his career to end. I was so in to the book I got scared half to death when Andy came out of nowhere and poked my ribs.

I screamed at the top of my lungs, so loud, I scared him back. He jumped back and hit the tree. I went from screaming to laughing my head off because he hit himself.

"Sorry dude I didn't mean to scare you, but you scared me first and so it your fault" I said between laughs.

"Yeah, I know it's cool,that hurt though" he mumbled.

"Forget that, remember we must block out the pain" I said remembering how he hit himself and laughing all over again,"How's it been?"

"It's been good, how about for you?"

"Good, sort of, why?" I said the smile I had erasing from my face.

"Why? Did something bad happen?"

"Yeah sort of, but it is not important. So do you have a lucky girl yet?"

"Lucky of what?"

"Well of course of being with you, you're a cool, funny, smart guy, I mean any girl would like to be with you." I said with a kind smile.

"Really?" I nodded,"Any girl?" again I nodded,"Even you?" I was about to nod and I stopped myself.

"Um, Andy you are cool and all but I am sorry, I don't like you that way" I tried to explain the nicest way I could to not hurt him because I could see the sadness in his eyes when I didn't nod.

"Oh, well then not any girl would be happy to be with me" he said turning away from me and getting up.

"Wait! I would but um but!" I said grabbing him from the arm and keeping him down.

"But what? You have a boyfriend don't you?"

"No! It's just um..."

"What that you lied to me just to make me feel good about myself?"

"Okay now you are just being a jerk!" I said getting up with him.

"Yeah ok at least I don't hide my true feelings" he said walking away.

"I can't like you back because I like some else!" I shouted after him.

"Who?" he shouted back with a sarcastic questioning voice without turning to look back at me.

"Reid! Reid Garwin, that's who I like!" I shouted and the sure made him stop walking and turn to face me. He had a shocked expression as if I had said something really bad.

"You like who?" he asked.

"I already said it, I'm not going to say it again someone might hear" I said even lower, ashamed of what I had said. I was even surprised I had said that, I didn't even know I liked him.

"She said she liked me" a familiar voice said from behind me. It made a chill run through my spine. That voice belonged to no other than Reid himself. Just knowing he had heard what I had said terrified me and paralyzed me.

"You heard what I said?" I asked after I got my energy back.

"Yup all of it, from the part where Andy got mad because you didn't nod at his last question" he said with his stupid smirk.

"Well don't think I really meant it I just said it so that he would get off my back about not saying yes and so that he would stop being such an ass" I tried to sound as confident as I could.
