"Come on, 'Brina, I saw it in your bag!" Accused Shinji, pointing to the small burlap sack at Sabrina's side.
"No way Shinji, you're hallucinating." Sabrina said dully, flipping through her magazine. At the moment she didn't feel like doing anything.
The sun was shining down on the park, and the three had just finished their lunch. Llandra was now napping, and Sabrina was reading one of her favorite magazines.
"No way!" Shinji said, crossing his arms and putting on a pouty face. "You can't fool me, 'Brina, I'm too smart." He said. Sabrina laughed.
Shinji frowned. "All well." He moaned, sitting down rather sullenly. Sabrina watched him from the corner of her eye. "I guess you're just too chicken. You know I'll beat you at frisbee."
Sabrina sat up, her competitive spirit rising. "Oh yea? I bet you I'LL win this game!" She said.
Shinji laughed. "You're on!" He ran up and off into the field. As Sabrina grabbed her frisbee she realized she had fallen into one of Shinji's traps.
"All well." She ran up to Shinji and the two started throwing the frisbee back and forth, having a grand old time laughing and falling and making "stupendous" throws and catches.
I never I could have so much fun with a frisbee. Sabrina said to herself as she caught another throw.
Maybe it isn't the frisbee.
"Oh no, not again." She moaned quietly, forgetting about the frisbee.
"Hey Sabrina, are you gonna throw it or what?" Sabrina smiled.
"No, I don't think I will." She said mockingly, taking a step away.
"Oh no you don't!" Shinji said, laughing and running up to Sabrina. She squealed as Shinji jumped for the frisbee, the both of them falling on the grass in a crumpled heap.
They both started laughing, for no particular reason. They just laughed, and laughed, and it was rather odd.
"I never knew a mortal game could be so much fun!" Shinji said, smiling. Sabrina nodded, and was just about to reply when-
"SABRINA?!"
Sabrina looked up to see who had called her name in such a tone.
Oh God. She thought to herself. "Hi...Harvey." She squeaked. Sabrina suddenly realized how awkward this would look, her and Shinji heaped on top of one another. Especially to her boyfriend.
"Yea. Harvey. Your boyfriend." Harvey said, and the anger in his voice took Sabrina by surprise. She quickly scrambled up, leaving Shinji to sit up slowly and watch the whole dilemma.
"I was just out with Llandra and Shinji. You know them, right Harvey?" Sabrina asked, realizing she was sweating.
WHY did Harvey have to see me now, when I was with Shinji? He got jealous when Shinji spent time with me in the mortal school, let alone outside of it! Her thoughts whirled endlessly, and she couldn't help but feel guilty.
"Yea. I do." Harvey said, glaring at Shinji. "I didn't you two were so-close." Sabrina realized he was trying to hold in any remarks against Shinji, but it wouldn't last for long.
Shinji caught the mocking tone of the remark and stood up abruptly. "Hey buddy, she was just throwing a frisbee around-"Sabrina held out an arm to stop him.
"Look, Harvey, I didn't know me spending time with a few friends would get you so uptight! How come?" She looked up into his chocolate brown eyes and almost melted. Even when sparks were flaring from then, she couldn't help but see the beauty in them.
He glanced at Shinji, pulled Sabrina away and then said, "I don't trust that guy."
"What, Shinji? He's perfectly harmle-"
"Look, 'Brina, I just want you to be safe, alright? No one really knows where he's from, or anything..."
Sabrina longed to tell Harvey she knew him from charms school, and that she and him and the rest of the class had gone on many magic field trips, and not once had he hurt her or looked down upon her—she hated keeping secrets from her boyfriend. Her high school sweetheart.
"But Harvey, he's really nice. I hope you're not jealous." Sabrina said, looking up at him with big blue eyes. Harvey looked into them for the longest time and then sighed, dropping her hands that he had been holding close.
"Of course not."
Sabrina smiled, stood on tiptoe and gave Harvey a kiss on the cheek. "Thanks Harv. I promise, nothing's happening. That scene you walked up on-he attacked the frisbee and we both fell down." Harvey gave her a weak smile.
"What else could have happened? Of course that's the reason."
"You better not be sarcastic."
"No, I promise." He gave her a hug. "I've got to go now. But remember, be careful."
Sabrina nodded, and waved as her boyfriend jogged off. The way his brown hair fell into his eyes, and molded around his handsome face perfectly just gave her the jitters.
Her love life seemed perfect.
Seemed.
