The Charming Ones
By- Complicated
Andy was sitting on the couch watching a game on the TV. Leo comes up to the couch, "Uh, Andy?" "Yeah?" keeping his eyes on the TV. "I forgot to tell you something, it's about Cole." Andy picks up the remote and turns off the TV and gives Leo his full attention, "What about him?" Andy asked questionable. "Well, I know you two are having a little tiff, but now that we are living in the old manor.." "And your point is?" "I invited Cole to stay here with us." "Leo! Why?" Andy yells. "Well, he is our brother." Leo says quietly. Andy tries to cool down and asks, "When is he getting here?" Leo goes off to the hallway to look at the big clock, "In a few minutes." "What?!??!" Andy yells again at Leo. "Great, just great. Why didn't you tell me before?" Andy questioned is younger brother. "Well, I didn't tell you because I was afraid you would act the same way you are now." Andy rolls his eyes and goes near the door, just as he does the door flings open and there is his youngest brother soaking wet from the rain.
Cole walks in and gives a low "Hey." Andy just grunts what was supposed to be a hello. "Cole! Hey! Whoa, your soaking wet, need a towel or something?" Cole looks up at Leo and gives him a nod. Leo goes up stairs and goes into the bathroom to get the towel. Cole walks in front of Andy, "So, what words of wisdom do you need to tell me now?" Andy looks at his brother, "I don't know what you mean." As he says it he goes back into the living room to watch TV. "Oh come on Andy! You know very well what I'm talking about. You always have something to tell me, you live on telling me I did something wrong." Andy just ignores him and sits back down on the couch and grabs the remote. Leo walks up to them and gives Cole the towel, who grabs it and puts it down on the side on the couch and takes of his coat and throws it at Leo. "Thanks, Leo." Leo puts the coat away and replies to Cole, "No problem little bro." They both look at Andy who is looking so stiff like a statue.
Couple hours later….
There is a blackout. Leo is trying to look for candles so they could see. "Cole?" Andy said through the darkness. "Yeah?" "I think there are candles in the attic, Leo won't find any down here." Cole tries to find the stairs and when he does he goes up them and trips but gets back up and mumbles to himself, "Stupid blackout."
Finally Cole gets to the attic and remembers Grampy never let them go into the attic, but since he was dead he turned the knob to the attic door. He also remembered it being locked but kept moving through the attic. He stops at a trunk and opens it, He can see because of the moonlight. He rummages through the stuff till he sees an old book. He picks it up and looks at the pages. He comes to a page that has some kind of rhyme and looks it over, "Looks like Dr. Suess write this book." Witches? Magic? What in hell is this book talking about? Cole thought loudly in his head. Cole looked at the old book laying in his hands, he wondered...
