Chapter 4: You Would Know It.
Like the past shoreline parties, they were created for the last bit of fun before the school year begins. Somehow, the cops were slow to catch on the pattern and break up the parties (maybe from supernatural influences?). So, the girls arrived to a full-on party. So many people there, they couldn't guess a number. Since they were pretty girls, they instantly were handed cans or cups on sight. They naturally dumped them and intelligently get their own drinks. Elliot went out on her own to meet people because that is what she's good at. Teresa tailed Browen. Alexandra eventually left the other two walking to a cute guy.
She stopped suddenly. She turned her head behind. What was that? Browen and Teresa moved their heads to the same direction. Where Elliot was, she also turned her head with complete attention. They sensed someone, no multiple people using. Their heads were faced to the cliff side of the shore. Out from the shadows of the cliff, the Sons of Ipswich strut to the party. All the girls eyed them with a mix of emotions of fear, curiosity, attraction, and alarm. They knew they could not defeat them even united against two of them let alone four.
Teresa side whispered to Browen, "They have it too, do you think they know who we are?" Browen responded, "No, they wouldn't use carelessly like that. But it's only a matter of time before they do." Elliot was on her way to Browen and Teresa as well as Alexandra.
The Sons grabbed drinks and started with their usual chatter. Then, Reid spotted Elliot walking across his view. He leans to Pogue, "What do you think she has on?" Pogue mused, "Blue lace." Reid added, "Nah, green thong." They set their bet.
Reid's eyes darkened. Browen felt the using as well as the breeze approaching Elliot. Browen's eyes changed. Those bastards! She redirected the wind lower to Elliot's ankles. Browen thought to Elliot, "I think the pervs were trying to blow your dress up." Elliot mouthed to Browen thanks. Elliot changed her path to the Sons. Show no fear, Elliot is here.
Reid was baffled. Why didn't her dress go up? Caleb even sensed Browen's using. They all stiffened. They saw their victim approaching them. Elliot had a smirk on her face. She sauntered up to them and said, "Now you boys weren't trying to pull a Marilyn Monroe scene, were you? Next time, you could just kindly ask." Teresa, Alexandra, and Browen came up next to her. Browen added, "Yeah, it would be wise of you guys to not start things you can't finish." "Browen! What she means is, we don't want to cause trouble. So, don't give us trouble," Teresa corrected. I hope they won't hurt us now. Browen glared at Teresa.
Caleb begins, "How do we know that you aren't trouble?" Browen defended, "I'm sure if we were trouble, you would know it." Reid scoffed and Browen directed her attention to him and clenched her jaw. Alexandra peeped, "Do you need proof that we're not evil hags or something?" Let's settle this now. Tyler spoke, "Guys, we could check with the book." Caleb nodded, "And if they don't mind us checking their minds." Elliot spat, "As long as we check yours." They came into an accord. They were all to meet at the grounds of the Putnam barn used to be.
All the boys were in Tyler's Hummer with Reid at the wheel. Browen pulled up aside them. "Care to drive faster grandpa?" Reid smiled devilishly. "Oh sweets, I don't think you can handle it." "Leave it up to the road." "Why do I feel like I'm going to regret this?" Tyler mumbled. Reid began to peel and Browen caught on.
In the girls' car, Alexandra just observed what happened. "Thank God, she takes her own car." Elliot agreed.
Browen arrived first. Not bad for a girl who didn't know where she was going. Although she has a BMW and no passengers, victory was sweet. The Hummer came up shortly after.
As Reid was parking, he noticed Browen leaning against the passenger side like she's been waiting an eternity. Pogue egged, "Ha ha, you really are slow." "Shut up, the only reason she won because I had your fat ass in the car."
The girls arrived. During the car ride, Caleb used and materialize the Book of Damnation in his hands. Everyone got out of their cars. Rachael had a defiant smug of a smile. "God, I hate it when I'm right." Reid flipped the bird. "You wish kid." Browen laughed. "Let's go into your car right now," Reid said with a fake seductive tone. If only if she said yes. "Anyways, I think intros may be nice," Tyler deflated the situation.
Elliot spoke, "I'm Elliot Nicholson. That's Teresa Miller. This is Alexandra Redford. And smart ass is Browen Green." Caleb replied, "Caleb Danvers, Tyler Simms, Pogue Parry, and Reid Garwin." So, Caleb try to look up their surnames in the Book. "Not gonna find it. We try to look ourselves. It's hard to trace when the women changed their last names after marriage," Alexandra said. It was true.
"Okay, I would like to screen your minds," Caleb stated. "How about we pair up and do it at the same time," Teresa suggested. "Good idea," Browen commented, "Just don't pair me up with that pervert." She pointed to Reid. "What? Come on sweets, you know you want to." I know what's in you head, me. Browen over exaggerated her eye roll.
Elliot was paired with Reid. Browen and Caleb. Pogue and Teresa. Alexandra with Tyler. Pogue counted, "One, two, three!" All their eyes instantly blackened. They all stopped when they were satisfied. "Well, now that fighting isn't an issue anymore," Alexandra broke the silence. After that, they shared about the Powers, Chase Collins, and witch stuff.
Although they were all together, it was apparent that Pogue and Alexandra were getting along as well as Teresa and Tyler. Teresa giggled from what Tyler said and noticed the time. "Hey girls, it's getting late, we should head back home." I don't want to go but it's right. "Go ahead, I'll let you know when I'm in," Browen said. "Fine, Lone Ranger," Elliot replied. She always is by herself. "Yeah guys, we have to get to the dorms," Caleb insisted. They all said goodbyes. Pogue and Alexandra and Tyler and Teresa exchanged phone numbers.
The three girls left. Pogue asked, "You said you're going home later, where are you going now?" "Where ever life takes me," Browen dramatically prosed. At the present moment, I haven't a clue. "It's not a good idea to be alone out here," Caleb warned. "For someone who just met me, you love playing daddy." "Seriously though, one of us should hang around," Pogue added. "Fine, fine," Browen sulked. "Reid, stay with Browen," Caleb ordered. "No! Well, only if I can something special at the end," Reid winked. "Geez, what's worse, being alone or being alone with a pervert," Browen held her hands like a scale. Heaven help me! "No, he won't do anything, right Reid?" Caleb threatened. "Can't make promises," Reid sing-songed. "Reid!" "Okay," Reid said in defeat. At least until you leave.
