DISCLAIMER: I do not own any of this except for my character Taryn Larson. I am just borrowing the characters to feed into my imagination.
Chapter 1: The Awkward Ways We Meet
"Ms. Larson can you please pay attention and put that book away?" Ms. Pommeroy said for the fifth time in class. Taryn sighed and closed the book and placed it in her backpack until lunch which was thankfully the next class. Her thoughts wandered over to the window where she watched birds fly up into the tree and to their nest where little birds were surely waiting for food.
'I wonder where mom is right now. She's probably at a meeting with her coven. I can't believe she never told me about the witch blood running in my veins. It's like a whole other world when she's teaching me or when I'm reading. I wish I could find someone who understands it other than mom and Billie. I really wish Billie would back off too. When I get initiated into that coven I'm going to really knock him out. He's nice, sweet, and cute and all but he's too…predictable. If only I could find someone into Wicca that would be…'
"Taryn? Hello earth to Taryn."
"Huh? Oh sorry. Class is over?" I snapped out of my day dreaming and saw Billie standing over me.
"Yes and I need to talk to you about…something."
'It's about the coven. I just know it.'
"Okay, now? Because I have lunch right now and I need to stop at my locker. So I'll meet you outside?" I babbled trying to get rid of him. I swung the strap of my tote bag onto my shoulder and started walking out of class.
"Oh it's okay, I don't mind coming along." He followed me out of the classroom and down the hall past classrooms and lockers galore. We stopped at my locker and I spun the dial around working my combination. Opening my locker I switched books and grabbed my spiral notebook that held my thoughts and dreams since I found out about my heritage.
"So Taryn what are you doing this Saturday?" Billie asked as I closed my locker.
"Studying, seeing as I have final exams in two weeks." I made my way out the back doors and into the back school yard. Students and teachers came out here to smoke, read or whatever.
'Wow can he be anymore obvious? I don't want to go out on a date with him. How many times do I have to tell him?' Caught up in my thoughts I slammed into someone and went spiraling towards the ground. The Wicca book I had held fell from my hands and onto the ground.
"I'm so sorry; I wasn't paying attention to where I was going. Are you alright?" The person helped me up off the ground and picked up my book. I dusted myself off and looked up to see two beautiful green eyes looking back. He had light brown hair and was tall and kind of muscular.
"Yea I'm fine. I was just thinking about something and forgot to watch where I was walking."
"I'm Chris." He smiled.
"Taryn." I smile back.
'Wow he's gorgeous! I wonder if he's into Wicca or the supernatural. He looks kind of stuck up though.'
"Oh I believe this is yours." Chris handed her my Wicca book.
"Oh thanks." Taryn blushed a little. No one knew about her thing in Wicca except for the coven.
"Don't worry I won't say anything. It's pretty interesting stuff huh?" With that and a wink, Chris walked off inside the school leaving Taryn's head spinning with many questions and Billie fuming.
A/N: ok that's all for the first chapter. R & R if its any good.
