Chapter Thirty
Arguing
"Have you never heard of knocking?" Ethel asked annoyed
"Seriously you can't just walk in here" Mildred replied annoyed at her friends too.
"Get out," Enid said looking at Ethel, not even listening
"No, this is my room you get out!" Ethel replied angrily.
"We need to talk to Mildred and you aren't welcome in the conversation," Maud said annoyed herself. Mildred opened her mouth to respond but Ethel stood, knowing it was best if Mildred spoke to her friends alone right now, they hate her, she will make things worse if she stays.
"Don't worry Milbie, it is about time I went to see my sisters anyway" Ethel said standing up and leaving, as soon as the door closed, Maud and Enid started.
"Have you completely lost your mind, sleeping with the enemy?" Enid replied disgusted.
"She isn't the enemy anymore!" Mildred replied frustrated
"Clearly" Maud replied
"I love her, and you had no right to throw her out like that" Mildred replied angry her girlfriend was thrown out her own room.
"Why are you so gullible? Once she has had enough of her fun and the sex she will be out of it" Enid replied
"For your information, we are NOT doing that and it was HER that suggested we don't" Mildred replied honestly
"Oh please everyone knows Ethel is a huge slut" Maud replied. Mildred looked at her friend in horror.
"Who says that?" Mildred asked she was honestly surprised she had never heard people saying that about Ethel.
"She is always hanging with boys, Zack, and they are always invited to parties and stuff her and Felicity have" Enid replied, Mildred though just didn't get the problem.
"So? When I went to parties before I knew I was a witch there were more boys than girls there" Mildred replied not understanding.
"It is different we are older and you know it" Maud replied. Mildred shook her head.
"Ethie is insecure, she is not like you think" Mildred replied not believing it. "Plus she makes me feel whole, I miss her so much even when we are in class and we can't be together, she is amazing and I am so honoured to be dating her" Mildred replied. Maud eyed her disgusted.
"Have you ever had a crush on me?" she asked her. Mildred sat there taken aback.
"Sorry what?" she asked her
"You fancy girls, so that must mean you find us attractive" Enid replied. Mildred had to bite her lip to stop herself laughing at the stupidity of it.
"You two are ridiculous if I had had a crush on you don't you think you would have realised? I walked into a flaming bin I was so busy staring at Ethel, it is quite obvious when I have an attraction to someone" Mildred replied honestly hurt her friends were looking at her badly.
"Your mum will flip when she finds out" Maud replied as if she was trying to guilt-trip Mildred.
"Mum knows and she is happy for me, in fact, a little too happy as now she doesn't have to worry about me getting pregnant, her words not mine, although she isn't happy it is Ethel" Mildred admitted. She couldn't wait until the holidays for her mum to meet the blonde properly, she knew she would end up loving her too.
"And what about Ethel's parents?" Enid now asked her.
"They don't know and keep your mouths shut if they find out we are all in trouble" Mildred replied worried
"Oh look Ethel thinking about herself again, if mummy and daddy find out they will be angry at her" Enid replied bitterly.
"You idiots, it is not just her, they will be angry at me, my mum, who they could do damage too as she has no magic and Esmie and Sybie for allowing it to carry on, this affects far more people than just Ethel if they find out" Mildred replied.
"Oh look at you, already nearly married into the family using all the nicknames" Enid replied so angry at that moment. Mildred glared at her.
"My relationship is not your business Enid" Mildred replied
"It is when it is with Ethel the bloody Hallow, break it off" Maud demanded
"NO!" Mildred replied, "I am in love with her why on earth would I do that?" Mildred asked her
"Because you are setting yourself up for heartbreak" Enid replied
"Maybe I am, maybe I don't care, maybe kissing her feels like the best feeling I have ever felt, maybe seeing her smile warms me" Mildred replied. She didn't care honestly, maybe she would get heartbroken in the end but right now she wouldn't end it for that fear.
"You are making a mistake Mildred," Maud told her
"I don't care if I am, I am so in love with her I feel like I melt," Mildred told her. Nothing much was said after that the girls left, annoyed.
"Looks like we have to go ahead with plan B after all" Enid said.
"Yes, we have to break them up before this gets out of hand" Maud replied agreeing with her friend.
"Are you sure you okay Milbie?" Ethel asked as she cuddled her a while later after she had returned to the room and asked Mildred what happened.
"Yes, just a little surprised at some of the things they said," Mildred told her"But hopefully they get the message" Mildred replied. She had no idea what turns things were about to take.
