Alex stared at the ceiling, her hand rotating in a water ball. So far, her day was hell. Her parents had no idea what happened to her. Her best friend was now her rival. Her little brother remembered their absence. And though it sounded corny, she felt she was going to go insane if she didn't kiss Justin soon.
Knock-knock. Thinking about me?
-More or less.
I hope more.
Alex threw the water ball at Justin's entering head, who quickly ducked behind the door. "Hey."
"Hey. Feel better?"
"More or less."
"That's just your phrase of that day, isn't it?" Justin joked, sitting on the edge of the bed as Alex sat up.
"I guess. It's just…so much has happened so quickly. It kind of feels like my life is falling apart in my fingers."
"What do you mean?"
Alex explained everything she had pondered over only a few moments ago. "It's just…it feels like…like…" Alex's voice hitched in her throat.
"Her final cure, right?" Justin finished for her. "It's okay to say her name, Alex." Justin placed a hand on her cheek. "She's not gonna hurt you again."
Alex whined, falling into Justin's lap. "But you weren't there, Justin! You didn't hear her say, brag, about how she was invincible. You didn't see all the lives she destroyed."
"Alex, calm down." Justin brought up Alex, holding her face in her hands. "Alex, I love you. Okay? Understand that. I love you. Nobody is going to take that away. Not even if they look 100% like you."
Alex smiled, locking her lips on Justin's. The other Russo kissed back, threading his hands through her midnight hair. Alex raised her fingers tentatively, wrapping them in his curls. She just wanted to sit there, lost in their kiss. Yet slowly, Justin started pulling away – which earned him a whimper – and pulled Alex down on his chest as they lay on the bed.
He relaxed in content, the pulse in his head beating furiously. Almost like it was Alex's heart.
"We're a prophecy, you know." Alex blurted out.
Justin chuckled. "A bit confident, are we?"
"I'm not joking. We're a prophecy: me and you." Alex sat up. "L-she told me so."
Three children, Rossi be the sur
Trouble is face where Magic is learned
Eldest two shall fall in love
And soon rule all, Earth and Above.
"So…this was all supposed to happen? Mom, Dad, L-"
"AH!" Alex leaned forever, a nose away from Justin. Her breath hitched. Bowing her head, she tried to hide her blush.
"Well then, you know what that means?" Justin smiled, grasping her chin and turning her face up. "We're gonna get through this."
Alex smiled, kissing Justin. "Love." You.
Love. "You."
"ALEX!" Justin disappeared behind the bed as Alex lay down in the center. Jerry entered. "Hey Princess, how are you feeling?"
"A little tired."
"Think you're up for dinner? Your mother's made spectacular pasta."
"Sure, I'll be right down."
"'Kay." Jerry smiled, walking out slowly. Justin raised his head and quickly ducked back down. "Oh, and Alex, have you seen your brother?"
"Um…yea…I think he's in his room." Alex sent a small water ball at the elder Russo, hearing quick muttering thereafter.
She plopped back down on the bed as her father left. We're gonna get through this.
Andra? Have you ever heard of this prophecy?
Sorry, Chica. This is the first. But don't worry. You're going to be fine.
But how do you know that.
Well, the prophecy says 'rule all, Earth and above.' You have yet to do so.
I hope soon.
Why?
I think I know why I have those dreams. "ALEX!" Her father called. I think they're visions.
