The next day at school, Chris sat on the bench, reading a book his father had given him called "The Truth about Warlocks". Terrence had decided that Chris needed to know a lot more about evil beings so he'd be less trusting in future.
"Any idea where Ella is?" asked the voice of Sarah, as she sat down beside Chris. "I knocked on her door on my way to school this morning, but the lights were all out."
"I'm not sure she'll be in anymore," said Chris, wishing he could tell Sarah the truth.
"I thought there was something suspicious about her, but I'm suspicious of everyone I hardly know. I guess it means you need a new date for the prom?"
"I wasn't gonna go," answered Chris, closing his book and putting it away in his bag.
Sarah blinked her eyes at the bag, and the book flew into her hand.
Chris's mouth opened in shock - Sarah had a magic power! "That was clever," he said, not wanting to reveal that he was also magical yet.
"Ella was a warlock? I'm glad I didn't get too friendly with her. Y' know they trick good witches into being friends with them, then turn them evil, right?"
"Yeah, but I learnt that the hard way," answered Chris, feeling comfortable talking to Sarah about super-naturals and magic now.
"Oh, you okay?" asked Sarah with concern. "I wish I'd known what she was sooner, then I could've warned you." Sarah offered the book back to Chris.
Chris put his hand out and accidentally brushed Sarah's hand as he took the book back. Chris's eyes closed and he started to get a premonition.
Chris saw him and Sarah dancing together at the school prom. They danced closer and shared a kiss. Then the premonition ended and Chris re-opened his eyes.
"You get premonitions, right?" guessed Sarah. "And you just had a good one judging by that grin plastered on your face."
Chris stopped grinning, feeling suddenly nervous. "About the prom..."
Sarah smiled, guessing exactly what Chris was going to say next.
