Chapter 7
Angel comes home and finds Matt sitting in the living room by himself, until she notices Sandra siting across from Matt.
"Hello" Angel says looking over at him.
"Hey" He says looking back at Angel.
(Laughing) "Don't you see her?"
"No why? Where is she?"
"Right across from you she can see and hear you but you can't see her cuz she ain't got a body…yet."
"What do you mean yet?"
"I mean I found a spell to get her one"
"Cool when are you gonna do it?"
"Tonight."
"Yay. That's good. Then will she be like a real person again or is it just temporary?"
"It's permanent. Until she dies again"
"Do you need any help with it?"
"Well I do need two extra pair of hands."
"Ok I'll do it."
"I know you would. Should we tell Jeff?"
"No."
"Ok"
"Where are you Sandra?"
"Right here. "
"Right where?"
"In front of you."
"Oh ok"
Angel and Matt do the spell at midnight. Angel told Matt the by the time he would wake up in the morning that Sandra would have a body. So Angel and Matt went to bed. When everyone woke up Sandra was sitting on the living room couch in Angel's robe. Matt's all happy.
"Sandra you look different." Angel said as she turned to get her some clothes to borrow.
"I like your new body." Matt said as he sat down next to Sandra.
"How the hell did you guys do this?" Andrew asks looking confused.
"It's called a spell honey." Angel said as she walked back into the room.
"I know that. What kind of spell? It must not have been too complicated cause I didn't hear you guys doing the spell." Andrew says looking at Angel.
"I can't really tell ya cause it's hard to explain. Here Sandra, why don't you go in the bathroom or my room and change." Angel says as she hands a pair of black jeans and a black halter-top.
Sandra stands up and tries to keep the robe closed, so Matt can't see anything.
"I still can't believe the spell worked, but I'm glad she's back." Angel said as she sat down on the recliner.
"This house hasn't changed a bit in two years." Matt said as he turned to look for Sandra.
"She's not back yet dumb ass." Angel says with a bit of a laugh.
" But I am now." Sandra said as she walked into the room.
"I take it you're glad the spell worked to, huh Matt?" Andrew asks smirking.
"Huh? What'd you say?" Matt asked as if he'd just come out of a daze.
" Yup he's happy." Angel said as Sandra started laughing.
" Damn right I'm happy." Matt said as Sandra sat down next to him.
"This is desa vu. Remember two years ago when we were watching Smackdown before… before well you know what I mean." Angel said as Matt put his arm around Sandra.
Just like it happened two years ago, Sandra and Matt were siting on the love seat together and Angel sat on Andrew's lap on the recliner.
" I almost forgot about that." Matt says sounding spacey.
Then the doorbell rang.
"Ahhha. I'll get it. Might as well it's my house." Angel says as she stands up and looks out the window behind Matt and Sandra.
"Oh my god. It's Jeff… and Mateana's with him." Angel says as she looks over by Sandra.
"He's with who?" Sandra asks with a raised eyebrow.
"Mateana. What should I tell him?"
"Don't tell him anything."
"I mean what should I tell him your name is?"
"Catherine."
"That's funny. Ok."
"Why's that funny?"
"Remember when we used to write notes back and forth to each other?"
"Oh yeah."
Angel walks over by the door as the doorbell rings again. Angel opens the door and lets Jeff and Mateana in.
"Hey you guys." everyone says except Sandra.
"Hey. Matt, who's the chick?" Jeff asks rudely.
"Do I look like a fuzzy little baby bird to you?" Sandra says with an attitude.
"Hi my name is Mateana! What's yours?" Mateana says as she puts her hand out to shake Sandra's.
"Catherine." Sandra says rolling her eyes.
"Hi nice to meet ya!" Mateana says happily.
"Yeah ok." Sandra says annoyed.
"Hey Catherine can you help me in the kitchen for a second?" Angel says as she gets up to go to the kitchen.
"Sure." Sandra says relieved.
Sandra and Angel go into the kitchen to talk.
"Dude I swear if that little bitch gets anymore perky I'm gonna have to smack her." Angel says as she eats a cookie.
"Yeah I know what ya mean. Is there any way to pry her off of Jeff? She is just clinging to him like glue. It's disgusting." Sandra says in disgust.
"Yeah that is disgusting. I wouldn't doubt if Matt and Andrew are about to puke yet." Angel says snickering.
"Yeah really." Sandra says laughing herself.
"We should grab some sodas or something."
"Ok"
They each grab three cans of Pepsi. They walk back out into the living room and to their disgust they see Mateana nibbling on Jeff's earlobe. Both Sandra and Angel turn away in disgust and they both yell "Get a room!!!"
"Ok." Mateana said as she looked at Angel.
"Not in this house." Angel says sounding ghetto.
"There's a Motel-6 down the road." Sandra said as she walked back over by Matt and sat down.
Angel handed Mateana and Jeff two sodas and she sits down where she was again.
"Umm I don't like Pepsi." Mateana said as she handed the can back to Angel.
"Well not to be mean but too bad it's the only kind of soda in the house." Angel says with a shrug.
"So Jeff, Matt tells me you're really conceited." Sandra said as Matt put his arm around her.
Angel had to take a drink of her Pepsi to keep from laughing.
"What?" Jeff asks like he misunderstood what she said.
"You heard me right. Matt says that you've gotten really conceited since your last girlfriend died… Sandra was her name I think. Right Angel?" Sandra repeats as she glances at Angel.
"Yup that's about right I'd say." Angel says as she takes another sip of her Pepsi.
"So how long have you known Matt, Angel and Andrew?" Jeff asks suspiciously.
"About as long as you have." Sandra says taking a drink of her Pepsi.
"That's impossible." Jeff says challenging her.
"How?" Sandra asks raising an eyebrow.
"Because I would've met you by now." Jeff says getting cocky.
"Not necessarily." Sandra says shaking her head a bit.
"There are some of our friends you've never met remember?" Angel says supporting Sandra.
"I guess." Jeff says defeated.
"So Mateana, did Jeff tell you what happened at the Hardy Mansion two years ago?" Angel asks changing the subject.
" All he told me is that a bunch of his friends died there." Mateana says uncomfortably.
"Did he tell you about Sandra?" Angel asks prying even further.
"Not really." Mateana says shifting nervously on the love seat..
Angel and Sandra could tell she was lying, but neither of them knew why.
"Mateana you know that your boyfriend is checking out my friend there, right?" Angel says trying not to laugh.
"Oh no he's not or I'll have to kick his ass." Matt says protectively as he tightens his grip on Sandra.
"Here we go again." Angel says as she shakes her head laughing a bit.
"Why are you looking at me for? Can't you see I'm taken?" Sandra says cuddling up closer to Matt.
"But I wasn't, I…. I was looking out the window." Jeff stammers.
"Sure ya were. Come on Jeffery. Don't lie to me or your brother. You know I can see through you like I can see through glass." Angel says putting him in his place.
"Well-well she was the one looking at me and licking her lips." Jeff says still stammering.
"Like hell she was!" Matt said as he stood up.
"I wouldn't look at you if you were the last man on Earth." Sandra said as she stood up next to Matt.
"Do you think I'd lie to you? My own brother?" Jeff asked as he stood up and got up in Matt's face.
"Hey you two either take this outside or one of you leave." Angel said as she stood up and pushed Matt and Jeff apart.
"Come on Jeff. Let's get out of here." Mateana said as she stood up next to Jeff and grabs his arms and heads for the door.
"Uh no you little whore you ain't going no where. You're the little whore who keeps going after Sandra's ex's even now with her dead I see you looking Matt up and down." Angel snaps as she stands in front of the door.
"Ahh hell no, you ain't going no where." Sandra snaps as she gets up and stands next to Angel.
"You call me a little whore Catherine well you're the one sitting over there by Matt dressed like a little hooch. And you Angel are sitting over there on Andrew and still flirting with Matt." Mateana says trying to sound ghetto and threatening.
Then Angel backhands her and Sandra punches her in the eye. Mateana looks at them with a long scratch on her face from one of Angel's rings. She goes to hit Angel but Jeff grabs her before she does.
"Come on Maty we don't need them. Let's go home." Jeff said as he walked her out the door.
"Jeff don't you ever bring that little bitch to my house again!!" Angel yells at Jeff as he walks over to his car and drives away.
Angel, Matt and Sandra all sit back down where they were before Jeff and Mateana came. They just sit and talk for a long time, about everything from what's happened over the last two years to what they're all going to do in the future, hopefully. Then it occurs to Angel that if it wasn't for the weird invitation to Hardy Mansion none of this would be happening. But I guess it doesn't matter because they would have been like this one way or another, except that Sandra wouldn't have died. But all that matters is that she's here now.
The End… for now
