Luz carried on up the staircase, wishing she could just take a shower after that mad sprint to Amity's house. 'Eugh I'm all damp and sticky' Luz thought. Unfortunately, and somewhat strangely, Amity forbade it and ordered her straight to her room. Luz considered protesting but then thought against it. 'Better not argue with the girl offering to teach you' she thought, 'There's probably a good reason behind it…I just don't see it yet' Luz snapped out of her thoughts as she arrived at the top of the staircase.
"Alright, corridor on the right, second door from the left, or was it second door on the right?" Luz second guessed "No wait, it was definitely left, I'm sure of it". The dark-skinned witch made her way through the corridor, taking note of all the photos on the wall, some of them showed the twins, some of them showed what Luz assumed to be her parent's. Then she noticed a pattern, each photo with Amity had her holding various trophies or medals, grinning with satisfaction. "dang girl, you really are competitive, aren't you? No wonder we got off on the wrong foot". Luz stopped at the second door on the left, a purple door marked with a bright green pentagram emblazoned into the woodwork. "this has gotta be it" Luz remarked to no one in particular. Taking the door handle in her hand, Luz slowly turned the knob, unsure of what to expect, finally opening the door, Luz was met with a surprise.
Pink, lots of pink. Pink walls, pink bed, pink desk and chairs, a pink cushion on the windowsill. Amity let out a small snicker. She never expected Luz to be such a fan of pink, yeah, she wears it on her robes, but there's no way Luz would imagine Amity was into a girly pink aesthetic for her room. The next thing that caught Luz off guard was just how spacious the room was, this entire house seemed larger on the inside. 'hah, it's just like the Turdis from Dr Pho' Luz thought in amazement 'but that was science stuff, whereas this is all magic. Still pretty cool though'. Stepping fully into the room, Luz spun around on her heel taking it all in, the stuffed animals, the shelf full of trophies, the photos of a young amity and her family, the bed and-THE BED.
Luz stopped as her eyes fell on the large four poster bed. Pink sheets of course and silky see through curtains. At the top there was a large wooden headboard with a heart shaped hole near the top. The pillows where a pure white, as if never been used. She took a hesitant step towards the bed, thinking of just what Amity had planned for her in the next few minutes. Pressing a hand down, it felt incredibly soft, yet it had a springy bounce to it. Luz took a shallow breath and took a seat on the bed, waiting for Amity to join her. 'Okay Luz…. here you are, In Amity's house, on Amity's bed, waiting for Amity…oh god this is really happening, I'm really going through it' Luz's breathing became erratic as her nerves got the better of her. 'calm down, calm down Luz, there's nothing to be nervous about, it's just err, something new, yeah that's right, a new experience and by the end of it, you'll learn some cool new spells to impress Edna with'. The thought of Edna congratulating Luz on learning a new spell during her absence helped ease her mind. 'It'll all be worth it'
"okay" Luz said out loud to herself "I-I should get ready for Amity" She looked down the length of her body, trying to think. 'should I…like, lie out across the bed for her? God no that's a terrible idea. Does she want me to strip down? Ehhh that's a bit hasty.' Eventually she settled for simply kicking off her shoes and tucking them into the corner of the room alongside her duffel bag. Luz then walked back, climbed onto the bed and sat there crossed legged, waiting for Amity's arrival. In the meantime, Luz looked around the room more, taking it all in. "gosh this place is so much nicer than my room back at the owl house" Luz pouted "I should have a serious talk with Edna when she gets back."
After a couple of minutes, the door to the bedroom swing open and in strode Amity, carrying a rucksack over her shoulder. Luz noted her expression, or a lack thereof, she looked…apathetic. After closing the door behind herself and depositing the rucksack onto the floor, she turned to lock eyes with Luz who bolted upright at the sight of those deep yellow orbs.
"Alright then" Amity said, "Let's get to work".
