Chapter 3
The voice gave it away. So it was easy to guess who it was. "Daniel it's you, "I teased. The hands went away, and got replaced on my waist. I got turned around I saw my boyfriend's handsome face. "Hi I missed you all day," I teased. Daniel smiled, and said "Oh really well you don't have to miss me any longer," he said pulling me closer to him.
"Oh really?" I asked smiling up at him. "Really," he said leaning down to kiss me, but then stopping to brush his lips against mine. Then after all the suspense he kissed me. The kiss was nice. He would have kissed me a whole lot more though. If we weren't it school.
"So do you need a ride?" I asked after the kiss was done. "Na my friends going to give me a ride home," he responded. "Huh," I randomly said. "Are you jealous?" Daniel teased. "No why would I be?" I asked raising my eyebrows at him. Daniel just shrugged. "So who is going to give you a ride?" I asked casually. "Oh you know Bryan," he shrugged again.
"Oh Bryan yeah how is he doing-his leg – I mean," I asked. "His leg is doing fine," Dylan looked at me pointedly. See one day I asked Bryan to use his cell phone because mine had got shut off and he said no. I was still pissed off because I didn't have my phone so I kicked him really hard on the leg. See that is bad because I have a really good soccer kick (I was also very strong though I don't know why). After that I had felt bad and said sorry he said it was okay, but I still feel bad. So I still ask if he's ok because it has only been like a week. Daniel was still looking at me like that- which by the way was weird. So I changed the subject by saying "Well you better go you wouldn't want to keep him waiting would you?" Daniel nodded gave me a quick goodbye kiss then he left -which I should have done long ago. I have to leave like right now, I thought closing my locker and sprinting to my car.
The drive to the shop was quick thanking god it was. When I went in my mom was waiting as always and when I was actually next to her she let out a breath of relief. "Thank you for being on time honey," she smiled. I smiled back and said "No problem mom." I don't know if I had a choice. As she turned to go she said "We can have pizza and brownies. Oh and I'll pick you up around 8'o clock." Of course she's working late but it's okay because I get to read books. Not just books either, books about witches and the spells and supernatural things. Why am I interested well because I am a witch and so was my grandmother. Grandmother was the wisest of the family (out of the witches of course).
Star (grandmother) always used to say 'If you hurt some body with your magic your using black magic. Black magic is very bad see if a witch uses black magic she would turn evil. That's only if you personally hurt someone with magic.
I barely noticed my body was moving unknowingly towards the cash register. I must have been deep in thought. Now that I wasn't in a deep thought I pulled out the book I've been reading. I didn't get very far in the book though before I herd the door open. I looked up to see - surprisingly Dimitri.
"So this is where you work eh?" Dimitri asked halfheartedly. I answered seriously "No I don't have to I own this place," small bluff my mom own the place but… and it was clear by the way his eyebrow raised he didn't believe me anyway, so no harm done.
"Fine," I said "my mom owns it" I finished. Dimitri nodded as though he was satisfied. Then he added "So your moms into all this spiritual stuff?" he asked curiously. I sighed but told him the truth "No she's not," I said bluntly. "Then why-?" he was about to ask but I cut him off already anticipated this. "It was my grandmas and my mom inherited it from her" I answered.
"But if she wasn't into this stuff why is it the same?" he asked. I knew he was asking about the store so…"Why does it matter to you?" I asked suspiciously. "Just curious," He answered casually. I studied him for a moment then I realized how silly this was. When I first met Dylan he asked these questions too. So I really shouldn't be so suspicious. Yet I was, wow this was weird.
The door opened again this time it was someone I didn't know. I watched as he went over to the spells section with a puzzled look. I don't know maybe it was just today but I didn't like the feel in the room change. I was still a novice but I knew some higher level spells that might help. One was an energy change science he seems to know what he was looking for I bet he knew his spells. The energy change spell changed the energy that's in the room to the person's who is doing the energy spell. I was about to cast the spell (which would be harder to do in my mind) when Dimitri asked if I was okay. I said I was fine but he said I didn't look fine. I insisted I was and he finally let up. It was already too late to do the spell the guy was walking over to me.
"Are you in charge here?" he asked. "Yea do you need help with something?" I asked a question of my own. "Yea do you have a spell book for the Black Rose Flower?" he asked. I tried to keep the surprise off my face. The black rose was forbidden to be used in spells. The last one who had used it in a spell was utterly evil. Mostly because that's all black roses were used for. "We don't have those kinds of spells here," I hissed. Coming across like I knew more than I should have let him know. I made a big mistake.
By his smile I knew I was right. "Oh what a pity I'll just have to look else where," he sighed as if he was disappointed, but I knew the truth he got exactly what he came for. He left after that and Dimitri asked "What was the matter?" I said "Nothing." Even though I knew I had to advance fast in my witch studies. Something told me I would need to. It was the exact same thing that had told me that brooding man was very, very bad. I was also very aware that something was trying to come back to me but it didn't come.
