Ch. 3! Sorry for the delay. I got lazy.

As Alice worked on her homework, Norm lounged on her bed. He looked around her room, seeing what kind of person she was. She didn't have much furniture in her room, but the ones she did have made the room look like a cabin in the woods. He looked at a clock on her desk: 8 PM.

"So, got any wishes yet?" he asked.

"No." A curtain of blond hair hid her face from him.

"You don't have any wishes? At all?" he asked, surprised. "Not even for a giant sandwich?"

"Nope." Alice answered.

"Nothing? Not fame, fortune, popularity?" Alice slammed her textbook shut.

"Wishing won't get me into Princeton or Yale!" she snapped.

"Alice, are you okay?" Alice heard her mom ask from downstairs.

"Yeah, I'm watching TV!" she lied. She glared at Norm and went back to work. Norm opened his mouth to say something back, but changed his mind. With a frown and a snap of his fingers, he disappeared with a poof. Alice looked back at the spot where he just disappeared from. She sighed, closed her book and went to bed.

...

"Good morning, Sleeping Beauty!" Alice gasped and opened her eyes. Norm was floating above her bed.

"Aw, man, so it wasn't a dream?" she asked.

"Nope!" he answered.

"What do you want?" she asked.

"You know you talk in your sleep, right?" He asked.

"What? No I don't!" she said defensively. With a snap, Norm poofed up a projector and it started playing a clip of her mumbling his name in her sleep. "That's not me!" Her face turned red. Norm smirked

"So, what are we doing today?" he asked.

"I'm going to work. It'll only be for a few hours, so you're welcome to hang out here until I get back." Alice grabbed her clothes for the day and headed for the bathroom.

...

Near the end of her shift, Alice was talking to Kate at the diner.

"I love these skates! I couldn't believe they fit me." Kate said.

"Yeah, but I don't think you should wear them in History Class anymore." Kate and Alice laughed. Suddenly, the bells on the door jingled. Alice's face dropped when she saw Norm walk in.

"Who's that?" Kate asked.

"Norm, what are you doing here?" Alice asked.

"You know him?" Kate asked.

"I got bored." He told Alice, both ignoring Kate.

"Well, I can't do anything about it, I'm working." She told him.

"Waitress!" Nicole and her friends, who hung out there almost every day when they weren't at the mall, called Alice over. She groaned and went to see what they wanted. "Who was that and why was he talking to you?" She asked with a scowl.

"It's none of your business." Alice told her. Nicole stood up to face Alice full-height.

"Everything in this town is my business. Have you forgotten whose father is the mayor?"

"I don't care!" Alice retaliated. Nicole reached behind her and grabbed a glass of iced tea off the table. She then splashed the drink all over Alice. Alice gasped from the cold drink. However, Nicole wasn't finished yet.

"And where is your dad, Licey? Oh, that's right! He's in jail!" Alice glared at her brother, knowing that he was the one who told Nicole that. Her cheeks were red and she blinked back tears.

"Aw, the baby's gonna cry!" One of Nicole's friends said, which got their group laughing. Suddenly, someone stepped between them.

"Hey! You don't have the right to treat her like that!" It was Norm.

"What are you doing?" She whispered to him. She saw him snap his fingers behind his back and the girls' faces got all red and blotchy. Little white dots appeared on the blotches. He gave them huge zits!

"You got a little something on your face." He casualy mentioned. Nicole took out her compact and looked in the little mirror.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!" Nicole screamed when she saw all the zits. She turned to her friends and screamed more when she saw her friends' zitty faces, which made them scream. All their distress caused one of the zits to pop. All the screaming stopped.

"Uh, Nicole? You got something white on your lip." one of Nicole's friends said. Nicole nervously felt her lip. "Other side." Nicole felt the other side and pulled something white on her lip. She looked and was instantly horrified.

"EEEEEEEEWW!" Nicole flicked it off her finger and ran out, followed by her two friends and the two boys laughing. The other waitresses and the cook all cheered as soon as they were gone. Norm turned around to face Alice.

"Are you okay?" he asked. Alice nodded. Kate came over to them, laughing.

"Oh my god! Did you... that was... oh my God that was golden!" Kate said. "But how did they get all those zits all of a sudden?" Alice glanced at Norm and shrugged.
