Here is chapter three, I thought this one was kind of fun to write, so hopefully everyone enjoys!

"How did you do that Derek?" Casey asked. "Derek? Derek! DER-EK! Answer me." Casey yelled as she was being pulled out of the house by Derek.

"I didn't do anything Casey, but we need to get home now." Derek said as he still had hold on her arm. They were almost to the car before Casey fought herself against Derek and finally got him to stop pulling her away.

"Casey, please. We need to leave."

"Why? Why do we all the sudden have to leave so fast? What are you hiding?" Casey demanded.

"I'm not hiding anything, it's just the stereo broke, and I didn't want to be around in case a fight started over why it broke." Derek answered as he unlocked the car doors.

"So you think hurrying away from the scene makes it look any better that you had nothing to do with it? I still don't get it. You were not any where near it when it fell, so why leave so quickly? I mean, because you didn't have anything to do with it; right?"

"No, I didn't. Why do you keep thinking that I did?" Derek asked defensively. He started the car and began to drive down the street. "I think you had something to do with it because… well, because…"

"Because what Case?" Derek asked as he came up to a stop sign.

"It sounds silly so just forget it."

"No, I won't just forget it. Come on, answer me."

"It's just you moved your arms just as it fell. Like you made it fall; with some kind of magic of something."

Derek began to laugh, "Magic? Come on Casey don't be crazy. It was just a coincidence. That's all."

"I know you are hiding something, in no time at all I will find out." Casey said as she leaned back in her seat and crossed her arms.

When Derek got home, he went up to his room and closed the door. He pulled out the Book of Spells and began to flip through the pages, reading over various spells and how to do them. He stopped when he came across a love spell. He read how to do it, and it seemed pretty easy. Derek then got a clever idea. He went into his closet and pulled out his yearbook from the past year. He flipped through until he got to his grade. Derek began looking at all the pictures until he found the person he could use. "Joseph Minsky, he should work perfectly as Casey's new love interest." He smirked at his idea then went back to the spell book and began reading the spell over again. Derek began practicing the spell so when the time came to do it for real, he would have it down with out any complications like before.

There were two parts to this spell; one part was needed for each person, so they could fall in love. Otherwise it would be a serious case of unrequited love. Derek began reciting the words aloud to himself when Casey walked in. Derek didn't see Casey come in, until it was too late. He finished the reciting the words and turned around. Casey's eyes became wide as she stared at him.

"Case, I can explain. This isn't what it looks like."

"Explain what Derek?" Casey asked grinning at Derek.

"Are you feeling okay Casey?" He asked a little concerned.

"I feel fine Derek." Casey said as she walked closer to Derek. She stopped and smiled before continuing, "Have you been working out?" She asked as she trailed her fingers along his arm. "Your arms look more muscular."

"No, I haven't been. Why are you acting weird all of the sudden?"

"I'm not acting weird. You are." She answered; her hand still on his arm. Derek looked down and noticed this and moved his arm out of her grip. He cleared his throat, "Did you need something, or did you just come in here to bug me?" Derek felt himself growing more and more uncomfortable with this situation.

"Can't a girl just come and hang out with her favorite brother?"

"Step."

"Same thing, but I guess if I am bothering you, I can just leave." Casey said, as she sighed to herself. She turned and began walking to the door. She turned around to look at Derek, hoping he would change his mind about making her leave. He just watched her walk away until she was out the door. He ran over and closed it again, and locked it this time.

"I think I just cast the love spell on… Casey." Derek shuddered at the thought and pulled the spell book closer to him. He reread everything over again until he read the part that he seemed to miss before.

Both parties of the love spell MUST be present at the time of spell, otherwise it will only work halfway, and the person you are choosing to cast the spell on, will fall in love with you, instead of who you chose previously.

"Oh man, what have I done?" Derek asked to himself as he frantically paced his room. "I got it. I'll just find the reversal spell… if there is one."

Derek flipped through every page trying to find a spell that would take back the one of Casey falling in love with him, but there didn't seem to be one. "Maybe I am just looking too much into this." Derek got up to leave his room and go find Casey to prove himself wrong.

He got to her bedroom door and took in a deep breath. He knocked quickly three times before opening the door and letting himself in. "Oh hey Derek, what are you doing here?" Casey asked as she pulled a shirt on over her head. Derek saw this and turned away quickly before he saw anything. He was shocked that she didn't yell at him to get out, or at least for just walking in. Instead she kept her smile and told him that he can turn around because she was fully clothed now. He sat down on her bed and watched her.

"Did you need something?" She asked. Derek just stared at her. She seemed, nicer than usual.

"No, not really. I guess I just wanted to talk." He answered.

"Well okay. Did you have fun at your party before we left?"

"Yeah, I guess it was fun." There was as long awkward pause before Derek continued. "So why didn't you have fun tonight? I though you really wanted to go."

"I did have fun, but I didn't really know anyone. I wish you would have talked to me more. That would have made it ten times better." She said smiling at Derek.

"Do you like anyone right now?" Derek blurted out before he could stop himself. Her eyes grew wide and she began to stammer. "Uh n-no, w-why do y-you ask?"

"It just seems like you have someone on your mind. You know, if you do like someone, you should just come out with it and let them know. It will make things a lot easier in the end." Derek said, trying to get her to admit something so he could see if the spell really did work. Casey smiled to herself, "I don't like anyone."

Derek sighed, "Okay." He got up from her bed and went to the door. "Anytime you want to talk Case, I am here. Just so you know."

"I know." Casey whispered as soon as Derek left her room.

Back in his own room, Derek decided to call it quits for the night. He lay down in his own bed and soon was fast asleep. He felt his eyes open and he looked around. He was in the same place as the night before; the blue open space. Derek turned around in circles trying to find the old man again but no one was to be found.

"Hello? Sir, are you here?"

With out any warning the old man showed up right before his eyes.

"Mr. Venturi, I told you that you can only use your magic for good, not evil. Now how are you going to explain this love spell you cast on your sister?"

"Step-sister. And I didn't mean it for evil." Derek said trying to sound convincing. "See I was trying to get her together with this guy from school. She recently broke up with her jerk boyfriend, and I just wanted her to be happy." Derek smirked at his quick wit.

"Well, all you seemed to do was make her fall in love with you. Is that what you planned Mr. Venturi?" The old man asked.

"No, and I don't know how to reverse it. What can I do?"

"There is no spell to reverse this, but there are options that can be done to reverse it."

"What do you mean?" Derek asked.

"The first option is Casey has to fall in love with the person that you originally tried to cast this spell on. You did have someone else in mind didn't you?"

"Yeah, this one guy from school."

"Okay, so all you have to do is get your sister to fall in love with that guy. But it has to be true love, not love you made her feel by using magic."

"Uhh, I don't think that is going to happen. She doesn't exactly… like this guy."

"So you did use it for evil?"

"No no no, it's just this guy isn't really her type, so she normally wouldn't go for a guy like that. Do I have any other options?"

"Your second option is to cast the other half of the spell on yourself. The only way it will be reversed in this case, is if she finds true love somewhere else. But there is no guarantee that she will find someone else to love. So you may be stuck with her forever."

Derek cringed, "I don't think that option will work for me either. Anything else?"

"This is the last option, and the one I recommend."

"Now were talking. Go ahead."

"You must fall in love with her naturally, with out any use of magic. Once she can feel what true love feels like then the spell will be broken."

"Wait, what? Please tell me you're joking. I can't fall in love with Casey. She is my sister."

"Step-sister from what you told me, so I don't see any problems with it."

"I don't think that is going to work for me either."

"Those are your only options Mr. Venturi. This is what happens when you play with your powers. You have to fix this." The old man replied.

"So the one you recommend is where I fall in love with her; on my own. But wouldn't that leave me hurt in the end?"

"Probably so, but who knows maybe once the spell is reversed, you can make her fall in love with you, but with out magic."

"This sucks." Derek said.

He then found himself opening his eyes, and he was still in his bed. He checked his clock and once again it was only minutes from when he fell asleep. He groaned as he rolled over in his bed and pulled the covers completely over his head. He would decide how to fix this in the morning; because there is no way he could fall in love with Casey. Could he?
