The Doc's in: Ha! Now I got 2 reviews! That just gives me more gumption to keep writing this story! So, may-j, you gave me the juice to add another chapter! Must be a nice feelin' on the inside!
"Thank God nobody was around to see this," Erik said, checking the area. "Is everybody okay?"
"Do I look okay?" Wesley snapped back. His mouth was wide open and it refused to shut. His eyes had a look of sheer horror.
"He's right," James agreed. He showed no physical signs of panic, but it was clear by the tone of his voice that he was feeling a lot of different emotions at that moment. "What have y'all turned us into?"
"We didn't turn anyone into anything," Lauren answered. "We only showed you what you really are."
"What we really are?" Matthew echoed Lauren. "What are you trying to say, that we're witches or something?"
"I don't think that here is the best place to talk about this," Erik said. "Why don't y'all come back to our house and we can explain everything."
"Fuck that!" Wesley exclaimed. "We don't know y'all! And I'm not about to take myself into this any further than I already am! As far as I'm concerned, I'm goin' back to my dorm room and try my best to forget about this whole damn thing, which I doubt I'll be able to do!"
"Same here," James said. "We'll be leaving now. Matt?"
"Yeah," Matthew said slightly hesitantly. "We aren't interested."
"We're not being arbitrary here," Erik said strongly. "This is serious. You need to know how to handle things like this because like it or not, this is only the first time."
"Is that a threat?" James challenged, taking a step towards Erik.
"More like a concern," Erik answered, taking a step towards James.
"My husband is a little overwhelming," Lauren said, "but he's right. We really need to talk to you in a safer place."
"Bye," James said, turning back to Matthew and Wesley.
He didn't say another word; he, Matthew, and Wesley just began walking towards James' truck, which was still a moderately long walk. Erik approached James and put his hand on his shoulder and stopped him from moving. James quickly turned around to see Erik's intimidating face. With a powerful "I SAID NO!" James waved his hand in a dismissing manner. Suddenly, at James' words and hand movement, Erik was magically thrown into the air, landing on the ground next to Lauren. James looked at his hand, then at Erik, who sat gruffly on the ground. He turned back towards his friends and they continued their walk.
"At least take this with you," Lauren yelled as she threw an oversized book to James, who caught it but quickly dropped it without looking at it.
"No, thanks," he said without turning back.
