Sorry for the wait guys... HERE ARE MORE CHAPTERS!! :D
Rachel's POV
I sat in the backseat of Leah's car whilst she blabbed on to Alex about what we were to do. I sighed, putting my feet up, "Look, all we have to do is.. act human. If they pull anything on you, don't react."
"No magic, jeez Rach, that'll be torture for you." Leah rolled her eyes.
"Shut up, Quincy, seriously! Don't let them get inside your head."
Alex made an irritated noise, "Things were just getting good!"
I sighed, leaning forward and putting my chin on my arms, "What do you mean?" My voice turned into a calm, soft tone.
She sighed, resting her elbow on the window sill and pressing her fist against her temple, "Just that... well... Reid's a cute guy. We just need to... get talking."
Rachel rolled her eyes, "I'm glad its all going good for you."
"What do you mean?" She frowned.
"All Pogue wants to do is talk..." I chuckled, "Sometimes he gives in."
"Hey," Leah frowned, "You two were eating each others faces at the bar."
I propped my head up, "Yeah... that was once... and I was intoxicated."
Alex giggled, "Yeah, I gave her one of my beers."
Leah threw dirty looks at Alex before returning her eyes to the road. Alex gave me a look that clearly spelled, oops-we're-in-trouble.
I nodded and sat back.
-
I cursed under my breath on my way to my first class. Reid and Pogue both shared this class with me, and... well, this'll be awkward.
I saw them down the end of the hall and I tried hard to act normal, but instead I just decided to drop my head and push between a small girl and large guy to get to class. I bolted up the side stairs until I reached the back and all the way in the corner, away from anything Pogue or Reid related.
I pulled my folder out and folded my arms over the top of it, preparing to shut down my brain for an hour and a half. Good ol' lessons. They sucked when Leah or Alex weren't in them.
I peeked through the small curtain of red hair to glance down at the two boys. They weren't too far from me. A row down and across. Reid nudged Pogue's arm whilst looking in the opposite direction, muttering something and Pogue nodded. He then turned, looking slowly up behind him.
I dropped my eyes and started to scribble down on paper.
Relax, you idiot. You're supposed to pretend that you don't know what they're talking about. You're human. All human. Relax.
My frantic thoughts rang through my ears and I snapped out of it when paper landed in front of me. Sleek and fancy manuscript was on it, spelling out; 'We need to speak after class.'
I grabbed a pen with shaky fingers and tried to write, 'Sorry... have plans.'
I crumpled it up and threw it down at the two boys. Reid caught it before it bounced of the edge onto another's head. They read it and both looked up to me. This time I wasn't fast enough, and our eyes locked.
"Why?" Pogue mouthed.
I opened my mouth, then closed it again, repeating and looking like a gold fish for a moment.
"Mr. Garwin!"
"What?" Reid shot as if speaking to his mother.
"I'd appreciate it if you read passage four for me."
Reid rolled his eyes and shot a dirty look at me. The second one I had gotten this morning. I tried to give Pogue an apologetic look. I don't know if it worked or not, but he turned around and stared at his paper.
That had got to be my most uncomfortable hour and a half in class. Never before had I had to hold my breath and close my eyes, counting back from five when one of the Sons had looked at me. I shuddered when the bell rang and picked up my stuff.
I almost tripped down the stairs in my rush, but a firm hand grabbed my upper arm, pulling me away from the ground, "Watch out, Rachel." Pogue's deep and rough voice was close to my ear. I wanted to run away like my hair was on fire, but I decided strongly against it.
"Oh... thanks," I turned to him and tried on a smile, "Pogue."
"No worries, how are you?" He walked beside me.
I shrugged, "G-good... a little tired. Had some research to do last night, and well-" I cut myself off. Stupid, STUPID! That was the complete wrong thing to say.
"Research? For what?"
"Poodles!" I said the first thing that came to mind.
He frowned, "Like... the little dogs?"
I shook my head, "No... um... some sort of... Bulgarian... noodle dish or something... stupid really."
He gave me a bemused smile, "Uhh... can we talk?"
My eyes went wide, "Oh... oh, look I'm really sorry, Pogue... but-"
"It will only take a moment," He pulled me aside from the door, my back against the wall. He smiled, "I just wanna ask you something."
I looked to the side and ducked under his arm, grabbing my stomach, "Look I'm really sorry, but I have to go do... something... I- don't feel well. I headed to the girls bathroom, trying to make it look obvious, yet mysterious. Hopefully my fake of cramps had worked on him.
Alex's POV
I headed out of the library, putting a few small books into my bag. I looked up to see Reid smirking at me from a corner. For once I didn't return any facial expression. I blinked and then pulled my phone out of my pocket, reading through old texts. I started walking but some arms slipped around my waist. I mentally groaned.
"Hey sexy." His husky voice was right at my neck, his hands we
on my waist and he pulled me back to sit on the side wall.
I folded my arms, "Reid... I gotta go to class."
He pouted his lips slightly, making him look so damn hot it was like staring at chocolate behind glass. I wanted to melt as he said, "Don't you want to skip with me?"
"I do..." I whined, "But..." Think of what Leah would say... "Think of what Leah would say!" Okay... Maybe I took that a little too seriously.
"What would she say?" His hands rested on my thighs, parting them slowly and placing himself between them. I pushed my skirt down, looking around frantically. Thankfully no one was around.
I wouldn't have worn the damn skirt anyway, if it wasn't the school uniform. His fingers trailed lightly down my leg and then around to hold my calf, rising once more and going up my skirt. I slapped his arm, "Seriously! She'd murder me!"
He jerked his eyebrows, leaning in and kissing me once, before trailing to my neck. I shut my eyes tightly before trying to push him away. In my desperate attempt, he pushed his torso closer to me and I just went loopy.
I grabbed onto his collar, pulling his tie from around his neck and then grabbing onto that, pulling his lips back to mine.
His hands slid around my waist to the back, his long fingers sliding the zip down of my skirt. I yelped, pulling back, "Ah, Reid!"
"Yes?" He smirked, leaning down and kissing my collar bone and then my neck.
"Umm... Oh, right... I have class..."
He bit down and sucked on my skin, making me want to melt all over again, "Reid!" It came out in a groan, but a groan of annoyance, not pleasure. Okay, I lie. But it was meant to get him to stop.
His hand was now on my ribs, pushing up to rest on my chest. I whimpered and then pulled back, grabbing his hands and pushing them back, "Seriously... I have to go to class."
"But I need to speak with you..." He said.
I raised an eyebrow, "That was speaking?"
He sighed, "No, it wasn't... But I really do have something important to ask you."
I shook my head, "Maybe later... I have to go." I did up my top button and zipped the back of my skirt again.
I slipped off the edge of the wall and picked up my bag, "See you, Reid."
Leah's POV
I bit my lip, tapping my foot. Finally I slammed my hand into the machine and it spat my five dollars out again, "Thanks... for nothing." I spat at it.
"You always talk to machines?"
I turned to see Tyler standing there. I gaped, "Oh, uh, yeah actually. Y'know, it's great drama practice."
He smiled, "You like drama?"
"No." I sighed, "It won't give me water," I turned to machine, "A stupid, single bottle of water! Not one!"
He put a hand on my shoulder, "Why don't you try the cafeteria?"
I turned to look at him, then my eyes went wide, "You're so smart!"
-
Tyler walked me to the cafeteria, his hand on the small of my back. I bit my lip as I knew he would want to ask me soon.
"Umm... Leah, can I ask you something?"
"Sure..." I started digging around in my bag to distract myself.
Tyler cleared his throat, "Uh... in private?"
I looked up quickly, "Ohh... private? That's no such a smart idea."
"Why not?" He frowned.
"Because," I rolled my eyes. It was now becoming an annoying hobbit, "In private it's usually really quiet and in quiet, I get nervous... Then nervousness usually causes me all sorts of trouble."
"Oh..." Tyler paused, and then sighed, "Well, it's just about something Rachel did."
I tried to loo casual, "What did you so this time?"
He chuckled, "We found some information."
"We?"
"Well... Caleb."
"How did he find it?" I pressed.
He put a ginger to his temple, trying to think, "Leah... I have to ask, is there anything you want to tell me?"
Yes. "No."
"Are you sure?"
"What do you want to know?" I avoided his eyes. He grabbed my arm and pulled me away from the cafeteria. We walked across the grounds and I was thankful that this was my break.
I knew that we were supposed to be denying the fact that we were... warlocks. But I had a plan of my own. If I told Tyler that we weren't up for any competition, then maybe nothing would happen. Maybe. For the sake of Alex, Rachel and I's new relationship with the bys, I at least had to try and make things work out.
Tyler turned around to me, his blue eyes soft like always, "Leah... please tell me the truth." I pursed my lips and he tried again, "When you heard-"
"-the rumour of you, Caleb, Pogue and Reid... Did I believe it?"
He frowned, "Yes."
I nodded, "Before I tell you anything... I want you to know that we do not want to start anything."
His expression hardened, "Rachel, Alex and I... are the daughters."
He exhaled and looked away quickly as if he was about to lose it. He ran a hand through his hair and finally he turned back to me, pointing, "You and... them... are in so much trouble!"
I jumped, "What?! What do you mean we're in trouble?!"
He nodded, "Reid will riot! Pogue wil probably kill himself! Caleb..."
I shook my head, "Tyler-"
"Do you know what this means?"
"I-"
"This has ruined everything."
"We did not ruin anything!" Tyler ran his fingers through his hair once more, pacing. I put a hand out, "Why is this such a bad thing? So what, we can also do some magic!"
He exhaled again, obviously now very stressed, "Do you even know how the legend goes."
I gave him a sour look, "Of course! Elizabeth was deprived of children, and somehow the gene was passed on to all five girls!"
He let out one single, pathetic laugh, "Is that what they told you?"
I glared, folding my arms, "Fine! What's your version?"
He walked up close to me, "The girls were born for only one thing..."
"And what's that?" I spat.
"To kill the sons."
I squinted, shaking my head, "Are you serious?! That's what you think? I gave a laugh of disbelief, "Men... hopeless!"
"There you go! Why don't you just fess up to what your game is?"
I glared again, "I wont fess up to anything! We are not against you!" I shook my head and paused passed him, walking back to the school. I needed to find Alex and Rachel.
Alex's POV
So the bell rang in two minutes. That gave me exactly four minutes to go and meet Rachel outside the art room. She will probably want to get out of there A.S.A.P, so minus that two minutes. So... three minutes, and then for us to run down and meet Leah at her car, she would already be there. So all together, an average of six minutes for us to et away from the school.
I packed up my books and swung my bag over my shoulder in a comfortable position for me to make a run for it.
Finally, after a long time of bitting nails, the bell rang.
I jumped up, burst through the door and ran straight into Rachel. She yelped and grabbed my arm, steadying me in front of her.
"Whoa!" I gasped, "What's the rush, whirlwind?! I thought was the paranoid one?"
She grabbed my arm, opened the janitor's closet and pulled me in. Her eyes were bright and wide, "They're everywhere... Caleb called me but I got away."
"This is ridicules!" I hissed, "We can't do this forever you know!"
"But I'd rather wait then let them kick our asses!"
"Hey!" I narrowed my eyes, "Who said they'd kick our ass? C'mon, we're the sisters!"
"Great!" Rachel rolled her eyes and tucked a few strands of hair behind her ear, "Look, I'm planning on confronting them... no magic."
"Good plan!" I beamed for a second before letting the act fall and be replaced by a glum expression, "We're toast."
"Oh come on! We can do it!" She nudged my shoulder.
I felt for the lock and pushed her out, and then followed, "Let's do it."
We both walked the halls until we got to the parking lot. None of the boys had come to us. We didn't even get a glimpse of Tyler's Hummer or Pogue's bike.
Leah drove us home in silence, but instead, parked us behind campus.
I frowned, "Uhh... Leah?"
"Hm?" she said, not turning off the engine or even moving her hands from the wheel, "We gota tell them."
"What?!" Rachel gasped, opening the door to the car and stumbling out.
Slid out too, looking at the four boys over near the trees.
I jumped when I felt something warm in my hand. Rachel grabbed my hand, before walking at full speed to the boys, "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT FROM US?!"
"Why did you lie?!" Pogue yelled back.
I ran forward, going to Rachel's side and grabbing her arm, "wait... let me do this," She nodded after a few long breaths and I turned to the guys, "Look! If you try to hurt either of my friends, I'll bust your ass and make sure you never forget it!"
"How could we trust you?!" Caleb glared, "After what you did to my friends!"
"Asshole!" Rachel yelled.
"No!" I shouted, jumping forward to stop her, but she jerked her hand, pulling a piece of energy from nowhere and holding it threateningly high.
I glanced at the guys, each one of them, one after the other's, eyes shifting and turning to pitch black.
The anger boiling inside of me; I felt a cold rush over my face, quickly to be replaced with the burning heat of adrenalin. My eyes went black like the rest and Rachel without warning threw the pall at lightening speed.
I ducked down as Caleb sent one my way. I had to dodge frantically, not once being able to form up my on weapon. I jumped and hit the ground hard! I rolled over, cowering behind a tree.
I watched as Rachel was hit in the jaw and then thrown to the ground. If it wasn't PMS, it was picking on my friends that really pissed me off!
I jumped up and collided with someone. Pogue. I grabbed his shirt and swung him around, launching my fist at his face. He caught it quickly, twisting it behind my back and pushing my front to a tree.
I clenched my teeth and he yelled out in pain, dropping my arms. I turn around and glared at him as he fell to his knees, yelling this time in agony.
I was mentally inflicting pain on him. Watching as his brain screamed in the pain, not his body.
"Hey! Stop!"
I looked over my shoulder as Leah yelled at Reid and Caleb, their hands around Rachel's throat, "For god's sake!"
I lifted the curse and Pogue fell onto his hands and knees. I narrowed my eyes at Leah, her eyes were wide and glistening, "What are you doing?!"
Rachel was giving the boys a foul look, as she tried to pull away from them.
Leah pointed at Tyler, "You said you wouldn't hurt them!"
He glared, "And you said no magic!"
She rolled her eyes, "Look we don't wanna hurt any of you. We're not who you think we are."
"Yes we are." I said quickly.
She waved a hand, "Okay, so yes we are who you think we are... but we're not here to pick a fight. Truth is, we're just like you. All we want to do it... go to school, pretend to be like everyone else, have fun and maybe even start families when we're older. Is that all a crime?"
I saw Rachel shudder at Leah's last example and I couldn't help but grin as the mood was lifting. Rachel didn't really like children.
"What about the legend?" Reid hissed.
"It's a load of bullshit!" Rachel spat at him.
"Shut up, Rach..." I said quickly, "What you heard from... whoever... is not true. We weren't born terminators or anything."
Leah sighed, "Can we just... hug and be friends or something?"
Reid let go of Rachel's arm, "So you're not bitches from hell?"
"No, you dumbass." Rachel hissed, looking away.
"We're just cute fluffy bunnies," Leah squealed.
I rolled my eyes at her, "Okay, little too far there Leah."
Reid walked over to me, looking me up and down. He smirked, "Good enough for me." He leaned down, and picked me up, swinging my legs around his waist for the second time today. I yelped and kissed him quickly.
Leah's POV
Caleb bit his lip, Tyler grinning behind him, "Um... so... I guess we're sorry." Tyler hit his arm and Caleb sighed, closing his eyes, "Okay, I am sorry."
I nodded, looking over to Alex and Reid, "I think we forgive you."
"Cool." Caleb grabbed Tyler's arm and pushed him towards me, "All yours, baby Boy."
I grinned at Tyler, "Um..."
He laughed, "Well you guys sure know how to put up a fight."
I shrugged, "I think it was just nerve... and the fact Reid probably would have killed us."
He laughed and put one arm around me, kissing my forehead.
I peeked past his shoulder to see Rachel and Pogue. My smile faded slowly as I saw she was yelling. He was trying to defend himself verbally, I could see that. But she was throwing her hand out at him.
Tyler turned to look down at me, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing..." I dragged my eyes away from the two.
