Chapter 7:

||Melissa's POV||: We finally descend to the ground and I jump off. I then see Max, throwing a penny into the fountain. I wonder what his wish was! "His wish was for him to be forgiven by you." Holly answers.

I look back to her and smirk, "Can you stop reading my mind? That's creepy! But thanks anyway for giving me a ride." Holly gives me a wink and flies away.

Stars dart through the sky and I hear Max's voice calling me. I flinch and turn around, running into a tree. I can hear Holly laughing in the sky. I get up and blow leaves away from my face. I then walk up to him and ask, "What?"

He explains, "Melissa, I'm so sorry for lying to you this whole time–" I interrupt him, "And I'm sorry for actually trusting you in our promise, that our relationship will never start and last with a lie!"

He holds my neck so gently that I don't want him to let go. I then flinch and pull away from him. "Melissa, I'm so sorry! What can I do to make it up to you?" Max pleads.

I look at him with puppy eyes and answer, "I don't know! Because how can you mend a broken relationship with a mortal and a wizard?"

He sighs and said, "I'm sorry I ever lied to you! I just wanted to be with you. You're an amazing girl, Melissa! You're not like the other girls I go out with or am friends with. You're special."

That moved me. I look away, trying not to fall for him but I think it's too late!

I still listen to his voice, "You're beautiful, smart, funny, my everything! I just want you to forgive me and I wish everything was back to normal." I turn my head to look at him but before a second, I find myself kissing him.

Our lips pressed but his tongue opening my mouth. He twists his tongue with mine and he is not letting go for some reason. I pull away but he pulls me back in for more.

Those unexpected kisses! Hits me every time.

I then let go and look at him and blush. He then says, "By the way, nice entrance!" He flicks off some leaves in my hair and said, "Wait, hold up a minute."

I freeze, wondering if there was anything in my head. "Stay still..." All of a sudden, he hits my forehead, which smacks me to the ground.

"OW!" I yell. He said, "Sorry! There was a bug on your forehead!" Ew.

I don't feel any sorry for him because he broke my heart first, and worse. And now I think he broke my forehead!

Max then said, "You know, I am willing to give up my powers for you!" My heart started to mend a little, but not much.

"Really?" I ask. He nods his head. The ends of my mouth seem to increase very little but I shake my head and say, "No, I wouldn't let you do that! You're a wizard! Wizards are amazing with their powers."

Max smiled and said, "You really think so?" I nod my head. Just at that moment, that smile, it just makes me smile as well.

I look down and tell him, "You know maybe this whole wizard thing could work out! I'm sorry, Max." He chuckles and said, "No, I'm sorry for not telling you that I was still a wizard in the first place!" We give each other a tight hug and a kiss.

Ok, maybe I will commit my time with this wizard. Even if we won't be together forever, I know that to I need to embrace the time I have left while I still have it.

Max said, "It's a good thing you forgave me because guess what?" He uses his wand and waves it, making a blanket, a basket, and a ukelele appear.

We sit down and comment, "Ok now I'm kinda glad that you're a wizard!" He takes out a five foot long sandwich and we eat off the ends. Then, our lips meet. Although, I kinda find it gross since our mouths were covered in lettuce, ham, mayo, and swiss cheese. We laugh and swallow our food.

Then, Max, turns my chin to face him and gives me a gentle kiss. He scoots me closer and he carries me onto his lap. He rubs my sides and I wrap my arms around his neck.

I let go and smile. He comments, "You know these past hours, I was missing you like crazy! It felt like hours turned into decades! I'm glad we're back together." I blush red and said, "I have to admit, I kinda missed you too! In fact, it was hard for me to get over you!"

He chuckles and said, "Well hey, you're talking about me! I'm always hard to get over with!" I laugh and nudge him, making him land on the ground. He then grabs my waist and pins me to the ground next to him.

We gaze up at the stars and next thing you know, I spy a shooting star. Max said, "Quick, make a wish!"

I close my eyes and think, I wish my life would never end with Max. Never end without complications!

I don't know why I was worrying after all! Yes, our relationship started with a lie but at least it got mended.

I ask Max, "Did you wish yet?" He shakes his head and twines his fingers with min, saying, "It came true." I smile and see his hand trying to reach for mine. I hold onto it and kept gazing up. I then hear Max say, "I love you." A pause came between to relax, "Oh and I'm sorry for hitting Robert!" I chuckle and just shook it off.

I get up, leaning on my elbows and gasp to myself. He stretches his arms and stretches it behind his head, relaxing. I said, "I love you too." I then kiss him. He puts his arm around my waist and pushes me closer to him.

I add, "Oh and I don't care if you hit Robert! He kinda deserved it for almost kissing me and flirting with me so badly!" He chuckles and we just watch the stars.

I close my eyes and try to enjoy this peaceful moment. "You know those kind of couples who just sit down and watch the stars all night?" Max asks. I nod my head and say, "Yeah, but too be honest, this is getting quite boring!"

Max then lets go and asks, "Then what should we do?" He raises his eyebrow, giving me a cocked grin. He leans in until I put my hand to his chest and say, "Too much! Make me laugh."

||Max's POV||: I sigh and try to think of something that can make her laugh. Or at least something to make her smile! I look around and see a family eating spaghetti for their small picnic.

"What do you call a fake noodle. An impasta!" I say. She laughs and said, "That's so corny!" "Hey, it's either this or we can just go home right away." I joke. "Oh well then that was such a hilarious joke!" Melissa says sarcastically. She then starts fake laughing, which seemed to fade.

I then ask, "Hey what did the flower say to the bee?" She leans her head to the side, confused. "What?" She asks. I wave my wand out and point to the flower.

A bee flies on it and tries to take any pollen until the flower actually yelled out, "Buzz off!"

"Ya get it?" I ask. She laughs and nods her head. Like it is, back to normal.
