Chapter Twenty Two – Two nights and One Day
It was once again night time, and Cornelia was waking up for the first time, since the small argument that happened earlier.
Irma was sitting on her computer chair, reading a book upside down, and nodding off.
"Irma?" Cornelia hissed.
Irma shot up, and both she and the chair tumbled to the ground. For a couple moments, Cornelia's stomach churned with worry.
Irma sat up, looking disgruntled, but unharmed.
"You decide to come out of hibernation?" she growled.
Cornelia chose not to answer, but studied her friend's face. Her hair was an awful wreak, dark circles under eyes, her eyes glazed over, and her bulging belly...
"Where have you been sleeping?" Cornelia questioned.
"Sleep? I have not gotten any sleep. Too busy caring for you, getting home schooled, because school was today, good thing I made you an Astral Drop, huh, I gave Caleb a good smack, and I got you pregnancy tests."
"Huh?" Cornelia murmured.
"I got you pregnancy tests… they won't work for another three weeks though… I already tossed one out, so if anyone asks it was mine, and I shall keep it at my house, until we find out so if you are not, you do not get into any trouble… and do you know how embarrassing it is to be buying pregnancy tests when it is quite obvious you already are?" Irma rambled.
"Wait… did you say you got NO sleep? None? Zippo?" Cornelia asked.
"Nope, none." Irma said, stifling a yawn.
"Irma! I don't know anything about being pregnant, but I think you NEED to sleep!" Cornelia cried guilty. She attempted to scramble from the bed.
"And where do you think you are going?" Irma snapped.
"Home…" Cornelia moaned.
"Where your astral drop is? Your parent's think you are home… you cannot go home and chance getting caught…" Irma said.
Cornelia stared at Irma. When had she gotten so… mature?
"Now sleep. I am going to sleepover at Hay Lin's… her place is closet. Don't make any noise, and such. You may want to turn invisible, so no one suspects you… Talk to Leaky if you get lonely, Ta Ta Now!" Irma said, as she left the room.
Cornelia flopped back. Things had changed dramatically in such a short period of time. She gave a small moan, as she tried to return to the wonderful land of sleep…
Author Note – Not the best, but right now I am antsy to get to the sequel, XD. Anyways to celebrate my four day weekend, I am going to make one update per day, each day, so yay! That means a total of five updates in a row! Whee!
I have finished book 25… the ONLY book that is about Irma… And it confirms Irma's real mom died when she was three and her dad remarried.
Oh and an extra cool thing you don't want to miss… Starting on Monday, I am going to give you a link to one or two of the WITCH comics, so you can read them too! It is time for everyone to rejoice! Now I need to hit the hay…
