Part 3
A/N: Thanks for all the reviews
I shook my head, "You said it" I told her, "Morgan, I heard you clearly" I said, avoiding her eyes. "You heard me in your head?" Morgan asked softly. I started to shake my head no, but then nodded, realizing that it was true. "That's a witch message" Morgan told me.
"But I'm not a witch" I said slowly as if talking to a small child. Morgan shook her head impatiently, "No, I know. So you shouldn't be hearing my thoughts anyway, unless…" Morgan trailed off, with a shake of her head, "No, it's not possible. It much be just an intuition sister thing"
"We're not related by blood" I remind her, "And what's not possible?" Morgan waved a hand dismissively at me, "I have to go to my doctors' appointment, if I don't leave now then I'll be late." She said, walking out the door. "Moira is taking a nap; I doubt she'll wake up before I get back"
"Morgan! Wait!" I called after her, but she walked out the door, obviously ignoring me. "Great, just great" I said sarcastically, starting to pace. She knew something and she wasn't going to tell me. What if I really am a witch? What if I have all these powers that I never knew about, oh God, I'm only 19.
Calm down Katie, I hear Morgan's calm and rational voice in my head and sit down on the couch, closing my eyes, trying to concentrate on what she was telling me, though it wasn't hard. Her words were spoken as clearly as if she was standing beside me. You're not a blood witch, She assured me. I nodded and shivered; I didn't really like feeling Morgan in my head like this. It wasn't unpleasant really, but I wondered if she could read all my thoughts, my feelings about Hunter, or how I'm failing trig class.
I wondered if I could send a message back and closed my eyes, concentrating on Morgan before thinking, Get out of my head. I sat back and waited for a reply, wondering if she'd even hear it at all.
Sorry. I felt her apologize, but I just felt stress emanating off you in waves and I wanted to help that a little. I smiled, Morgan, always the big sister, always concerned about me, even if she did come off as judgmental sometimes. Just because you're not a blood witch doesn't mean you can't have powers, she said and I closed my eyes again, preparing to question her about what that meant, but she was gone. I didn't feel her presence in my mind anymore, but I wasn't concerned, I knew…no, sensed that nothing had happened to her, she'd just slipped out.
I got up and checked on the Moira to make sure she was still sleeping before sitting down again, tucking my legs under me as I sat on the couch, hugging a pillow, wondering what it all meant. I needed some answers more than the cryptic ones that my sister had provided me with.
"I need peace of mind" I said aloud, "I need answers." I remembered Morgan meditating when she felt lost or confused when were younger. I never could do it, I couldn't clear my mind properly, I'm too antsy to sit that still for any length of time, but I decided to try it anyway.
I closed my eyes and tried to slow my breathing, deliberately clearing my head of all thoughts, but it only lasted a second before my mind wandered to Hunter. I wondered where he was, what he was doing, if he was still thinking about our meeting this afternoon. Hunter…Hunter. I thought, wishing I'd had gotten his phone number too, so I could call to him.
Mary K? His voice sounding confused replied in my head. I was so surprised by this that my eyes snapped open and I didn't even notice he'd used my loathsome childhood nickname instead of calling me Kate.
I shook my hear form side to side, trying to clear it; was everyone just going to be able to pop in my mind? I wondered, concerned and annoyed. Why can't anything just ever be normal in my life?
