The group went inside different stores. As they were walking down one section, Hazel caught a sign that said Seer.
"Want to go in? Maybe he can tell our future", Anthony joked.
"Our dad actually did, before he met our mom", Faith said.
"And what did he tell him?", Anthony asked.
"Not to lose hope, that he will find the one. Then he met our mom", Faith smiled.
Anthony looked towards Serenity. She bit her lip and looked away. She knew what he was thinking.
"So, you think everything he predicts will come true?", he asked.
"I hope so", Hazel mumbled.
Faith squeezed her sister's hand.
"Lets go in. I mean, what's the worst he can say", Genesis spoke up.
They all looked at her.
"What? I mean, we already know our future", she said, grabbing Anthony's arm.
He swallowed before looking at Serenity again. Hazel reached for the door and opened it, walking inside. They all followed.
Walls filled with candles and perfumes. Little trinkets visitors can buy. A guy came out from the back and he froze. His eyes locked on Hazel.
"Hi", he said, setting the box he was holding down.
They all smiled or waved.
"Are you the Seer?", Breanne asked.
"What?", he asked, turning to Breanne.
"She asked if you were the Seer", Rao repeated.
"Oh, no, that's my dad. He's on break right now, but will be back any minute. If you want I can take your names down. Come back, say in ten minutes", he replied.
They group nodded.
"Gives us time to eat", Paisley said.
They nodded and he walked over to the counter. Grabbing a sign in sheet.
"Just put down your names, well the ones who want a reading", he said.
They each did except for Genesis, repeating that she already knows what her future holds. Which also pissed off Serenity.
Hazel wrote her name and this guy smiled.
"Beautiful name", he said.
She smiled and blushed. He held his hand out.
"My name is Javier", he said.
She took his hand and shook it. This guy was cute, he had a warm smile. Faith and Breanne watched the interaction and smirked.
"I think your sister is in love", Breanne whispered.
Faith nodded. Hazel pulled her hand back.
"So, we will be back in ten", she said.
Javier nodded. They walked out and everyone teased Hazel. She blushed more.
"If I were you, I would take that chance. You're lucky you can marry whoever you want", Anthony said.
Hazel rubbed his back as his eyes were on Serenity, who was walking with Rao and Paisley.
Genesis caught up to them, she was behind with Faith and Breanne. Was Hazel trying steal Anthony from her? They were the only ones not related, besides Paisley and Breanne.
She pulled on Anthony's arm and walked faster. Anthony sighed.
She thought it over. Should she give it a chance? The worst he could say was no, right?
After they ate lunch, they made their way back to the store. Javier was outside on his phone. As soon as he saw them, he stood up straighter and smiled, his eyes found Hazel.
"Welcome back. Who wants to go first?", he asked.
"I will", Hazel said, raising her hand.
He smiled bigger and nodded. He opened the door for her.
"Ladies first", he said.
"Should we wait out here?", Genesis asked.
"If you want. My dad said it helps him because he can't sense anyone else.", Javier replied.
"Good. It was too scary and suffocating in there", Genesis said, pushing her hair over her shoulder.
She looked at Faith.
"Hazel, aren't you going in with your sister?", she asked.
Faith rolled her eyes while everyone else chuckled.
"I'm Faith", she corrected.
"Hazel is over there", Anthony said, pointing towards her.
Hazel waved with a smile. Genesis didn't really care as long as she stayed away from Anthony.
She shrugged.
"My bad, I'm sure you all get confused too", she said.
"Not really", Rao replied.
"But then again, we were all raised together, so we know each other", Paisley added.
"I just met you and I can tell them apart", Javier said.
"Same", Breanne nodded.
Hazel and Javier walked in.
"Follow me", he said, guiding her to the back.
An older man was watering his plants when he looked over. He smiled warmly.
"Hazel Styles, welcome", he said, setting the watering can down and sitting at the table.
"Styles? As in, King Styles daughter?", Javier asked, his smile falling, looking between his dad and Hazel.
She nodded.
"Future Queen of Sapphire region", his dad added.
She felt her hope in him saying yes to her go down. Now that he knew, he would probably decline.
"Now out son, I need to read her", his dad said.
Javier nodded and left. Hazel sat and set her hands on the table. This man smiled.
"So, what would you like to know?", he asked.
"Will I make a good Queen?", she asked.
He smiled and took her hand, turning it over and tracing her palm with his finger.
"Your dad asked the same question, before he got to his real question", he replied.
"Which was?", she asked.
He met her eyes.
"If he was ever going to find someone to love him", he replied.
She smiled.
"And you told him he was", she said.
He nodded.
"I can't tell you too much on that because then it would change things. Just be patient with him, he will have his ups and downs", he said.
She nodded.
"But he will love you the way you want. You, along with him will make a great Queen and King. The perfect partners", he replied.
"Can you tell me if I already met him?", she asked.
He met her eyes.
"That would be giving too much. Trust your heart and what its feeling, that will guide you", he said.
She smiled and nodded.
"Anything else?", he asked, releasing her hand.
She shook her head no. He nodded.
"Javier, she's done", he called.
She stood to leave, he stopped her.
"He likes you too by the way", he winked at her.
She blushed. Javier came to the back and smiled.
"I'll walk you out", he said.
"Thank you", she said to the Seer.
"Anytime", he replied.
Javier walked her to the register and she paid.
"How was it, your highness?", he asked.
"Please don't call me that. Its Hazel", she corrected.
He nodded. She was about to walk out, but stopped. Trust your heart, repeated in her head.
She bit her lip before walking back over to him. Grabbing the notepad, she wrote down her number as he watched.
"If ever you are in Sapphire, call me. I would love to show you around, or even if you just want to talk. I like talking.", she said, nervous.
He smirked.
"I like talking too", he said.
"Bye", she said.
He waved. The group walked over to her.
"How did it go?", Paisley asked.
She smiled.
"Really good.", she replied.
Faith took a deep breath.
"I guess I will go next.", she said, walking inside.
Anthony looked at Hazel.
"Do you believe him?", he asked.
"I do. He couldn't tell me much because it could change things, but he told me enough", she replied.
He nodded. Hazel knew what he wanted to ask the Seer. She also knew he was afraid of what he was going to say.
"Its not fair.", Hazel said, making Anthony look at her.
"Whether she wants me to or not, I'm giving up my title. I just won't tell her till after I do it. She is worth it, Haz.", he said.
She smiled and touched his cheek softly.
"I have your back, both of yours. I can always use more guards when the time comes. Why not someone I trust", she said.
They hugged, before he was pulled away from her by Genesis.
"Look, just because you have issues finding someone to love you, doesn't mean you can take mine", she shouted.
Serenity stood between them. No one will be touching her cousin on her watch.
"Stop, Genesis. We were just talking. Hazel and Faith are like sisters to me", Anthony said.
"I don't care. Respect me as your future Queen", Genesis shouted at him.
He sighed.
"And you respect her as future Queen of Sapphire. Touch my cousin again and you will have me to deal with", Serenity shouted, getting in Genesis's face.
She looked scared before huffing and grabbing Anthony's arm to drag him away.
"Your friends are rude and never allowed to visit us", they heard Genesis say.
Anthony rolled his eyes. He prayed he never got stuck with her. They all did.
