*I'm sorry this took so long I had so many options... and somebody's drinking didn't help very much either, she kept spilling all her MM's shots all over the keyboard and making it short circuit! *

*I have switched to Morgan's POV, I think it goes better for the theme of the chapter. Has references to Strife, beware if you haven't read it!! *

I was so relieved that it was finally the last day of school! The last day of my junior year. Only one more year left until I was free, free of my parents, free of obligations and free of my restrictions on Wicca. But then again life wouldn't be completely free, I still plan on going to college and I will probably still be learning more about magick.

I was headed back to my car; I didn't have to worry about Mary k. she was going over to Jaycee's house for a post-freshman year party. When I looked up I was shocked to see Hunter standing by my car. We had been through soo much together this past year; he had found his parents and then lost them again to dark magick, I had almost been sent to catholic school, Mary K. had found out the truth to what had happened that night at Selene's and we had finally consummated our relationship. I was glad this year was over!

"Hey there," I said to Hunter, "What are you doing here?"

"Would you prefer I left? Because I could you know," he replied smartly. I gave him a kiss to shut him up.

"Now ok really, what are you doing here, you hardly ever come to school."

"Well considering this is the last day of school and you seem to have the next what is it three months off? I decided to come and pick you up!"

I was generally shocked! Hunter my stuffy old boyfriend was actually doing something somewhat romantic!

"Yeah, we have three months off why? Do you have something in mind? Hmmmmm?" I said raising my eyebrows.

"Maybe..." He said not answering my question.

"Come on," I said growing impatient, "I wanna know what it is! Pleeeaaassse!"

"Alright, I was thinking a lot last night and...."

"Uh oh! This can't be good," I said cutting him off.

"Hahaha!" He said sarcastically. "Back to my point, how would you feel about, perhaps spending the summer with me?"

I stood there looking at him with a blank expression on my face. I couldn't believe this! He wanted to spend the whole summer with...ME!

"Oh, goddess yes! I would love to! Hunter, I take back what I said, you come up with some pretty great things when you're thinking!" I said planting another kiss on his soft lips.

"I just kind of have to ask my parents..." I said letting my voice trail off.

"Oh, yeah," he said sounding distraught, "I forgot about them."

Don't worry I'm sure they'll have no problem with it!" I knew I was lying but I really wanted to believe it my self.

"Okay, good. I really think this would be a great opportunity to teach you some things that could be important to you. And well I wouldn't mind spending some time with you either..."

"It sounds great Hunter. I'm going to go home and ask right away."

We said our good-bye's and I left for what I knew was a big mistake the second I asked.

When I got home I was relieved to see that Mary K. was still not home. Both of my parents were in the living room reading. I casually walked up to them and sat down.

"Hey Morgan, How was the last day of school?" Asked my dad.

"Great!" I said a little too enthusiastically. "But there is something I would like to discuss with you guys."

"Sure honey what is it?" inquired my mom.

"Well Hunter, came by after school today... and he and I were talking for a while and her sort of asked me if I could spend the summer with him..."

"Morgan sweetie, you know we love Hunter but I just don't think that's a good idea." My hopes collapsed. This wasn't going to be easy.

"He's an older boy, and I don't think I want my seventeen year old daughter spending three months alone with him."

"Mom!" I screamed. "What do you think we'd do?!?! This trip isn't about sex! It's about getting to know each other, but no in that sense! And he'd be teaching me other things..." I knew I should have stopped there but it had just slipped out.

"About Wicca right? Well I don't think so Morgan. We've respected your wishes before and this time I'd like you to respect ours."

I could feel the rage boiling up inside of me.

"Mother, I never said that!"

" But you were about too!" Countered my mother.

"No I never..."

"Morgan just drop it case closed!"

"No mother! I really want to do this! Why can't you just let me be happy for once in my life!"

"What?!?!?" Asked my mother sounding hurt.

"You heard me, whenever I find something I love you automatically assume it's not good and never let me enjoy it!"

"That's not true!"

"Yes it is and you know it!" I screamed!"

"Morgan Rowlands calm down at this instant! You know what at the rate your going I wouldn't be surprised if I let you don't anything at all this whole summer! Especially with Hunter!"

That took the cake! I remember Erin telling me that emotions cloud you abilities and your senses because the next thing I knew I threw my hands in the air and a ball of witch fire shot out at the ceiling! When I saw the look of terror on my mothers face the realization of what I had just done hit me!

"M-m-m Morgan!" Stuttered my mother right before she passed out! I looked up at my father and I saw a look I had never seen on his face before, a look of sheer shock and distress on his face. At that very moment I grabbed the keys to my Das Boot and I ran out the door...

*Good!!?!? Huh?!?! Give me reviews I love reviews! Reviews are good! Mmmmm! I'll hopefully have more up soon! I love leaving things in suspense! Sorry that there were no shots to be taken this time around but I think I did a good job any ways! :P *
