Ok chapter 2…I update quickly, which I suppose is a good thing. So, no reviews as of yet, it would help if someone could tell me if I should continue with this story. I don't think it's that bad. Well, hope you like it!
Disclaimer: I don't own any character that have appeared in Charmed, it's kinda depressing actually.
A white…lighter? What the hell, and why was he 'mine'? Usually, I'd be perfectly happy with a hot guy thinking I owned him or something, but this was just strange. Besides, my parents had been telling me for ages not to talk to strangers. Or else I'd end up raped, murdered and tossed into some lake. Scare tactics, gotta love 'em. But this guy…hadn't he just saved my life?
"I don't…I don't understand." I tried to say, "what just...happened?" My voice sounded pathetic even to my own ears. I stepped away from him, I didn't know if I should run or stay. I looked out to the street, there were skid marks where I had just stood moments before. My ears rang from hearing the screeching tires…
"Kitty?" Said the man, uncertain. "Listen, we really need to talk…"
"You bet…" I mumbled under my breath. Politeness was not an issue, I wanted answers.
"I know you know..." He started, trailing off. As if he were trying to find the right words to say to me. " You're a witch, Kitty."
I gasped, not on purpose, it just came out. Who was this person, and how did he know my biggest secret? I took another step away from him, something in my brain told me to run, but I was frozen, rooted to the spot. I knew it, when I woke up I just knew this was going to be a bad day.
"Don't be scared." Leo was saying, "there are others like you. Each witch has his or her own whitelighter, that protects them and shows them the way. I wanted to reveal myself to you some other way, perhaps in a less stressful environment, but I couldn't just let you be run over by a car."
Amen to that. I thought. But how did he save me? This must be a dream, but everything else this morning seemed real enough. Somewhere deep down inside, albeit, quite deep down, I was relieved. This was a good thing, I guess, this meant that I didn't have to keep my secret to myself anymore. Maybe I wasn't such a freak after all. Leo continued to stare at me, trying to figure out what I was thinking. Suddenly, he looked down at his watch.
"Your first class is in…2 minutes." He said, frowning.
"I'll be late, it's not that big of a deal."
He shook his head; " I'll have to orb you to school. It's what I just did to save you from that car."
He "orbed" me? Great, this sounded like something from out of Star Trek. He'll probably start walking around saying "beam me up, Scotty" any second now. Nevertheless, when he reached out to hold my hand, I didn't pull away. He could be lying…or not, and I thought it would be worth it to find out. Once again I felt the strange sensation come over me again, someone cracked another egg over my head. I closed my eyes, since there was a bright flash of light, and when I opened them again…I was in back of the school. Luckily, no one was around to see our arrival, I bet Leo planned it that way or something.
"Do you think we can meet back here after you're done school?" Leo asked, he said it casually, but I could tell he really wanted me to say yes. Who was I to refuse a hot guy anyway? Especially one that had just saved my life just minutes before.
"Yeah sure, school ends at 3:10." I said. He shot me a killer smile and then orbed away again. It was pretty amazing just watching him do it, dozens of blue bubbles rose upwards like he was some sort of angel going back to heaven. A whitelighter, eh? I could get used to that.
Leo orbed back to the kitchen table, from which he had been interrupted. The remnants of a breakfast prepared by his wife, Piper, were in front of him. She was bent over the sink, cleaning the dishes left by her two other sisters, Phoebe and Paige.
"Hey," he said, walking over to her and kissing her cheek. " Sorry I had to run out like that, but my new charge was in trouble."
Piper turned around and smiled at him, "I didn't know the Elders had given you a new charge. There's leftover pancakes on the counter for you, Phoebe's at work and Paige's at another temp job."
"This charge is supposed to be different." He said, moving to the table and clearing off the dirty dishes. "According to the Elders anyway, they say she's going to help destroy some sort of evil in the future."
"Hmm, like, near future?"
He shrugged, "No clue, I'm meeting her this afternoon though."
It was a miracle, I wasn't late. Well, I was approximately one minute late, but no one really cares anyway, besides, now I'm seriously considering joining the track team for some extra credit. I might need it, considering that I "don't try hard enough in school". Pfft, I try plenty, it's not my fault we keep on getting dumb assignments. Like this new one for instance, pick someone in the class to work with, and then report on some event going on in the school.
"Hey Kit Kat." Said my friend Sasha, who sat across for me. I waited for her to say something else, but she just kept poking me with her pink glitter gel pen.
"What?" I finally asked, impatient. I bruise easily you know. Sasha was my best friend, minus Jake, of course. She always reminded me of a hippie, dressed in flashy colors and bell-bottoms and the like.
"Wanna do the assignment together? We can pick the school's talent show, super simple. Plus we can scope out some major hotties like…" She looked around us, seeing if anyone was listening. "Zach Bellevue, his band's trying out, but everyone knows they're going to make it." She hummed a bit and put her hand over her heart.
I sighed, but couldn't help cracking a smile. "Deal, but if you bring roses to toss at Zach, I'm so ditching you."
End chapter 2. Pllleeeeaassse review! Muffins didn't work last time so..cupcakes?
