Chapter 3: A Spark
Come with me, the girls will want to meet you." Still holding my hand he pulled me into the kitchen where two women stood over a bubbling pot.
"I told you that it was Rosemary and not Sage." One said.
"Oh and how was I supposed to know I grabbed the wrong bottle?" The other replied.
"Ahem." Both looked up to see us standing in the door way.
"Hey Chris, who's your new friend?"
"This is Taryn Larson." It was as if someone threw on a switch that just froze the whole place.
"I'm Piper and this is my sister Paige." The taller one with dark brown hair and a scar on her eyebrow spoke up breaking the silence.
"It's nice to meet you. I've read about you in my books but I've never thought I'd ever meet you." I replied sort of shakily.
"Chris why don't you show her where she'll be staying?" He nodded and grabbed my hand and did the blue light thingy again.
"Okay before we do that again…what's with the blue lights?" I said shaking the dizziness out of my head.
"It's called orbing. It's how whitelighters get from place to place." He said laughing.
"It makes me dizzy." I said sitting down on the bed.
"You'll get used to it. This is going to be your room for a few days or until we find a way to vanquish your father."
"Wait what? I can't stay here for a few days! Vanquish? Oh no, no, no I don't care if my father is some dark warlock or not, he's my father!" I jumped off the bed and started shouting.
'He's my father. They can't kill him, evil or not.'
"Taryn I don't think you understand. He is going to turn you to the dark side or kill you. We can't let it happen and I won't let it happen. Do you understand? There is no way anything bad is going to happen."
"Oh please. How are you going to protect me? I don't even know you. If I died you'd have one less charge. What would I…" Chris closed the gap between us and pulled me close. He pressed his lips up against mine. At first I was surprised but then I just went along with it. His tongue slowly made its way into my mouth and played with mine. He pulled away a little while later and stepped back letting me go.
"We should go back downstairs." I followed him out the door and down the stairs back into the kitchen. My face must have been red because Paige asked if I was feeling okay.
A/N: A little bit of romance but it won't last too long grins devilishly There will be more fighting and arguing between them first. Please R & R!
