Kelly leaned against the counter at Storm Chargers, reading a magazine. She looked up at Blake.
"Oh, Blake, come here." She said, calling him over. He set down some merchandise he was restocking and walked over.
"What?" He asked.
"Come here, let me read you your horoscope." She said smiling. "I love reading people's horoscopes for them." She looked under his sign and began to read aloud. "It is time to fulfill your deepest desires of the heart. Tell that special someone how you really feel. Venus is currently on your side, making chances of love very favorable." She looked up. Blake sighed.
"Kelly, those things are just done by magazine writers who just type up what people want to hear." He said with a chuckle. "You gotta be a little dim to actually buy that." Kelly narrowed her eyes at him.
"I buy it." She said. Blake's smile faded.
"Uh...Did I say dim? I meant......." Kelly waved her hand dismissively. Blake sighed again. "Sorry, I just don't believe in any of that astrology stuff." He said. Kelly looked up and saw Tori walk into the store. Kelly cast a look at Blake and tossed the magazine over to him.
"Maybe you should start believing." She smirked as she walked away to help some customers. Blake looked over at Tori as she walked over.
"Hey." She greeted.
"Hey." He smiled. Tori looked at the magazine and smiled. She took it from him and read the cover.
"Designer jeans for all shapes jeans for less." She read. She looked at Blake. "Didn't know you wore designer jeans." She smirked. Blake laughed nervously and took the magazine, tossing it behind him.
"It's Kelly's."
"I figured." She laughed. Blake smiled. Tori looked at him. The whole incident with the love spell was barely two days ago, and for two days, she couldn't stop thinking about it. She liked Blake, and, although not sure at times, she thought maybe he liked her too, and she knew what he and Cam where doing was all part of the spell. But something about it all just couldn't leave her head. That energy that flowed through him when the monster was blasting him. Part of her thought, hoped, it wasn't part of the spell, that it was actually him. Another part of her tried to force herself not to get her hopes up. And what also bothered her was that for two days she couldn't get Blake to talk about it. He wouldn't tell her what he meant when he said "it's time for her to know the truth" or anything.
Blake caught her staring.
"What?" He asked. Tori took a deep breath.
"I was just wondering." She began. "When are you going to tell me about- " Blake knew what she was getting at.
"Uh, I have to get back to work." He said, going back to stocking the merchandise. Tori groaned. Kelly walked back over and picked up her magazine. She saw Tori's distressed look.
"Everything ok?" She asked. Tori sighed.
"No." She said. Kelly looked over at Blake who was restocking the merchandise and casting nervous glances at Tori every now and then.
"You know, sometimes guys are just too shy....or stupid......whichever....to take any action." Kelly said. Tori sighed.
"Whatever." She mumbled as she left the store.
Blake saw her leave and sighed. He knew he was being a moron by not just sitting down and telling her how he felt. But, he was afraid. The truth was, he never felt this way about a girl before. And it scared him. He was so worried that he might do something wrong, or make a fool of himself. What if he told her, and she totally freaked? He didn't want to take that chance. Part of him was glad the spell wore off before he had a chance to say the truth about how he felt. Before he told her he loved her.

"Man, you have got to tell her." Hunter said to his brother as he worked in the backroom with him. "I mean, this whole thing between you guys is really staring to be a real pain in the butt." Blake rolled his eyes.
"Thanks for your sympathy, bro." Blake sighed. Hunter looked at him.
"Sorry." He said. "But, this whole flirting back and forth thing and then nervously shying away is just.......Confusing." Hunter admitted.
"Didn't know my love life was of such an interest to ya, man." Blake said.
"Hey, you're my bro." Hunter said. "I just want ya to be happy, and it looks like Tori makes you happy."
"She does."
"Then ask her out already!" Hunter said.
"Hey, I did..Remeber?" Blake said defensively. Hunter rolled his eyes.
"The kung-fu festival does not count. Inviting her to a movie with your brother and you is not a date. And, she was doing her punishment for using her powers in public when you asked again. So, I suggest you give it another try." He suggested. Blake looked at his brother, realizing he had a point. He nodded, smiling softly.
"OK, yeah, I think I will. Thanks bro." He said.
() Tori surfed through the waves at the beach. She wasn't fully concentrating on the waves, her mind being filled with the constant issue of Blake, and ended up wiping out. She sighed as she decided that was enough surfing for the day and headed back to the sand. She sighed and collapsed onto the sand, sitting there deep in thought.
"Now, I do remember your surfing was a little bit better the last time I saw you." Came a voice. Tori, slightly startled, looked up to see a boy standing over her. Tori looked at him blankly. The boy caught this and his smile faded. "Don't tell me you've forgotten about me?" He said. Tori blinked as suddenly she remembered his face. She gasped slightly and stood up, it was Dil, the boy she meant a few months ago when that whole thing with Kapri, Marah and Tori's freakishly girly and horribly dressed double happened.
"Dil...Hi." She smiled. "Wow, it feels like I haven't seen you in ages. What happened to you?" She asked.
"Oh, my grandfather was sick and I had to go to Connecticut to sort of help my grandma take care of him."
"Oh. Is everything all right?" She asked. Dil sighed.
"He passed away."
"Oh, I'm sorry." She said.
"It's ok. He lived a long and good life. I'm sure he's in a better place." He smiled. "So, how are you?" He asked.
"Good." She said. She tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear. "It's great seeing you again." She smiled. Dil nodded.
"Same here." He smiled. "I do believe you've gotten more beautiful since I last saw you." He said. Tori blushed and looked down. Dil smiled.
"Hey, are you busy later tonight?" He asked. Tori blinked and shook her head. Dil smiled. "How about you and I go on that date we never had a chance to go on before?" He smiled. Tori's eyes widened slightly. Dil was asking her out. She opened her mouth to say no...But then stopped. Why should she say no?
'Because you like Blake, that's why.' Her mind told her. She mentally shook her head. 'Blake and I aren't together. I can go out with whomever I want. If Blake has a problem with it, it's his own damn fault for not asking me out himself.' She looked at Dil.
"Sure." She smiled.
