Chapter 11:
Reid
and Nova walked into the library and sat down at an empty desk. "A
library isn't the place I expected to do it with you but if it
makes you happy," Reid said with a seductive grin. Nova slapped him
over the head knocking him out of the chair. Embarrassed, he quickly
got up and sat back down.
"I need to talk to you about the new
girl," Nova whispered as she noticed that the dark haired girl was
sitting only a few tables from them. She was deeply engaged in a
book.
"Kelly C. Valentine, 5'8, 19 years old, dark hair, hazel
eyes, and about a D-Cup," Reid said smoothly looking at the girl.
Nova frowned at Reid's last comment. She didn't take it
personally though she knew that was just how Reid was and she
couldn't change that.
"Did you know next week is my 18th
birthday?" Reid questioned. The new girl known as Sarah leaned
towards their way, interested at the question. Nova glanced towards
Sarah but didn't expect anything.
"Reid that's not what I
wanted to talk about!" Nova snapped irritated.
"Fine then...
What is it?" Reid asked. Nova came in closer to Reid.
"Sarah...
I think she knows about the survivors from the witch hunt... She had
a book today Powerful Items through the Ages. It has a lot of info on
Salem and the witch hunt. It also lists many powerful items hint,
hint the title... And I think whatever the hell made my sister sick
was one of those items," Nova whispered to Reid. Reid gave her a
doubting glance.
"She's probably just reading it for a
assignment or something... And your sister was just sick with the
flu," Reid said simply.
"But our magic can't heal regular
illnesses," Nova said. Reid just nudged his shoulders.
"I
think you're imagining things," Reid said as he got up to
leave.
"Reid... Please believe me," Nova said with a tear
sliding down her face. "You're the only one who probably ever
would."
"I gotta get to swim practice... Meet me at Nicky's
tonight and we can talk about it," Reid said getting up to leave.
"Love you." HE said giving her a peck on the cheek.
