Chapter 7
I got up early in the morning and full of energy, I was even one of the first people at breakfast; the only other people were Cecily Temple, Martha Hawthorne, and Elizabeth Poole. Felicity, Pippa, Gemma, and Ann were nowhere to be seen.
"Hello there, Renee," Cecily said. "I think this is the first time we speak to each other, so welcome to Spence."
"Hello Cecily, Martha, Elizabeth. Thank you for welcoming me, I'm sure we'll all get along here." I said trying to sound perky and not bored.
"So do we, we wouldn't want such a nice girl like you on our bad side." Cecily said, showing her true evil colors. Martha and Elizabeth following their ringleader.
"Oh really, I don't want any trouble, I was -" I said but was interrupted.
"Oh really Cecily, just shut up." Felicity had arrived and joined the conversation. "We all know you all talk and no action. " A few low giggles broke out among the younger students.
"Hmm! We'll just see about that one day, Felicity." Was all Cecily could say before marching off. It was completely obvious that everyone at Spence bowed down to Felicity, and I was extremely glad that I was her friend and not her enemy.
"Thanks Felicity," I said after everything went back to normal and we were all seated for breakfast.
"You're welcome, just remember, you're one of us now, and we got to stick together." She said, and I felt like I was part of some secret order or club; like a boarding-school sorority.
"Pass the jam," Ann said. I didn't even notice that everyone else was already here.
"Sure thing, Ann. So how'd everyone sleep last night?" I replied trying to make some small talk.
"Wonderful, thanks for asking. How's your head?" Ann said, spreading the strawberry jam on the toast.
"I completely forgot about it, it doesn't even hurt anymore," I said answering Ann.
"Well, I slept fine," Pippa said with a yawn.
"Magically," Felicity said with a smirk.
"How about you, Gemma?" I asked since I hadn't heard a respond from her.
"Gemma, are you awake?" Pippa asked with a slight nudge.
"Hmmm… s'il vous plait, Mademoiselle," Gemma finally answered. "Huh? This isn't LeFarge's class."
"Well done, Gemma! You've stated the obvious!" Felicity teased, "So, are we still up for tonight?"
"Can we do it tomorrow? The magic has drained me of energy." Gemma said.
"You're just lazy, eat something, you'll feel much better. Either way we have to go tonight, who's going to teach Renee how to bring everyone in?" Felicity replied. It was evident that she always got what she wanted.
"Fine, maybe if we work together it'll be less of a strain on me. Hold on, you used your magic last night too, right Renee?" She asked.
"Um, yea I guess I did." I answered unsure of where this was going.
"Then why aren't you exhausted?" Gemma's question was unanswerable by me.
"I'm not sure, it was my first time. Maybe it was beginner's luck?" I attempted to answer, but it came out sounding a bit suspicious.
"You'd tell us if you were hiding something, right?" Felicity said, also interrogating me now.
"Yes, of course I would. I don't have anything to hide, unless I don't know about it." I answered, unknowingly digging myself into a bigger ditch.
"Then it's decided, we will test your loyalty tonight at the realms. We'll pick you up at midnight." Felicity made sure to whisper.
" What? We never decided anything, though. What kind of test?" I asked.
"You'll see tonight." Was all she said, in her mysterious voice.
Later that day, every time I would look at one of them I received smirks that made me uneasy about what was going to happen tonight. "Was I going to be forced to sign a blood-pact, were they going to make sport of me, lock me in some magical dungeon to rot for the rest of my life?" I thought, each time my mind racing with possible "tests." No pressure, only the possibility of fitting in with a good crowd of friends, or sitting alone fore the rest of my time at Spence until my debut and/or marriage. "No pressure, once or ever." I repeated to myself. I guess I will just have to wait and see if I pass with excellence, or fail miserably.
Hope you liked it! :)
