I'm sorry. I don't own W.I.T.C.H. magazine or TV. Serie so... this could not be what is happening on either of them. (what am I saying? This is not going to happened in either of them!!)
I know this chapter is too short, but I couldn't thought anything else to post… Sorry once again.
Chapter 17: Cornelia, Elyon and Caleb Holidays.
"Are you ok, Caleb?" Elyon asked him as she saw him looking to a far point on the horizon.
"Yes, Elyon." He said. "I was just thinking."
"I also wonder what my friends the guardians will be doing day after day." She recognised smiling. "And Cornelia is my best friend."
"It was not her who I was thinking about." Caleb recognised turning around to see the corridor where the balcony was placed by.
"Oh." Elyon said confused. "Who then?"
"Never mind." He said softly.
Suddenly Elyon realised on something and smiled.
"Did she liked the bracelet you got her?" she asked.
"Well, she didn't knew of them." He said.
"I knew!" she said happily, then she pocked him on the arm softly and playfully as she smiled. "Recognise it, you were thinking on that 'kitty' guardian Irma calls her."
"I like her, but as I also like the other guardians." Caleb said.
"Caleb loves a girl, Caleb loves a girl." Elyon began singing playfully.
"I don't love any girl!" Caleb said. "Furthermore…" he added sighing. "She doesn't love anyone."
"How are you so sure?" Elyon asked. "Has she told you?"
"No, but…" he said. She had told him, he then remembered. "She mentioned something about her being hurt for that so… she promised herself never again to love."
Elyon then fell silent too, she knew how it was. She had heard some girls say such thing. And then Cornelia, who was not likely to fall for anyone, had fallen for Caleb some time ago. Anyone could fall for a guy and the other way round.
"Caleb, you can go to see her." Elyon told him then.
"No way. First I don't know where she is, and second, I have my pride." Caleb said.
"And she didn't say where she was travelling too?"
"Europe." Caleb said. "Around all Europe, so…"
"Ok, then you should wait till she arrives or ask Oracle to allow you to get where she is." Elyon said smiling.
"I prefer waiting." Caleb said. "After all, holydays are for resting from work…"
"Lillian!!!" Cornelia said angry as he took his hairbrush covered of her favourite lipstick.
"Mum!!" Lillian said running to hide behind her mother. "Mum!!! She wants to hurt me!!"
"What's up now?" their mother said a bit tired of their constant fights.
"She turned my brush into this! And she did it on purpose!!" Cornelia said showing her mother her now blond hair stained with pink lipstick giving her a weird look of punk model.
"Lillian, I have told you a million times your sister's things are not toys you can play with." Their mother said on a fed up tired way. "And Cornelia, I think you should play with your sister a bit more instead of fighting with her. After all, you are her elder sister…"
"She is just a little monster!!" Cornelia said.
"I'm tired!" their mother said angry as Lillian was now crying. "Cornelia, get to your bedroom!"
"I'm tired of always coming here!!" Cornelia said shutting the door of her room angrily.
She then jumped to her bed and hugged her pillow angry.
Her mother was always like that, she always believed that little toad of Lillian instead of her who was elder. Why was she always so unfair with her?
Suddenly she remembered the incident with the butterfly when Endarno was about becoming oracle. She knew exactly how would have been if she was never born.
How sad she had felt when her father, her mother and even Lillian looked at her as if they didn't know her.
Then someone knocked on the door.
"Cornelia…" Lillian said. "I'm sorry to have endirth your hair…"
"You put my favourite lipstick on my favourite hair brush." Cornelia said still a bit angry as she remembered what Lillian had done.
"Sorry… Here I give you my favourite." She said handing her a doll hairbrush and a game lipstick. "They are my favourite too… do you forgive me?"
"Hum… just if you swim with me a bit at the lake." Cornelia said running to tickling her.
She caught her unaware and they began tickling each other for a while till they got to the lake. The same place where some summers before they had fought three Nerissa's servants, the same place where Shagon took Caleb from her.
"Cornelia, are you coming or what?" Lillian said.
"Coming!" she said.
Caleb was just past, now they were good friends and nothing more. He was supposed to be with Elyon. She would give everything she got for spending some days at Meridian with her. They were best friends since they met but Elyon was a princess and she had to return to her place, leaving her alone again. She now had four good friends who shared lot, five now the new one was there.
She then wondered what the rest would be doing right then. Even the new "rock princess" one who was with her sister on a tour all over Europe.
"I whish she brought me something from Paris Modes…" Cornelia thought dreamily during dinner.
