Chapter nine:
Ross's POV
For the second time that day I was embarrassed. But this time I was also furious. I had told my friends everything on what had happened. But they just couldn't stop laughing at the fact that I fainted in front of everyone. So as soon as I had finished my story I stormed out of the house. I didn't really care that Rory and Gavin were laughing,but I just made myself out to be like a fool in front of Barbara. God I wish I could forget about everything that had happened. I wish I could set my friends on fire. What a strange thought I thought. Then just as I was thinking of what I just thought a beam of fire shot from my left hand. I instinctually jumped back and slowly raised my hand expecting it to be burnt, but when I looked at it, it was fine. I decided to do again. I started to think of fire again and then just like last time fire shot out of my hands. I aimed it at one of the gardens on my street. I kept the fire going for about 20 seconds. Then when I stopped I looked at my still not burnt hands, the I looked at Mrs McSweeny's scorched garden. Then I kept on walking back to my house still shocked with my new found power.
20 minutes later
I was sitting on the couch when I heard a knock on the door. Sighing I got up knowing that it was going to b one of my friends come to say sorry. I walked over to the door and opened it.
"Hey Ross."
"Barbara! Hey. What are you doing here?" I asked quite surprised.
"Sorry for laughing at you. But even you have to admit it was pretty funny."
"Hmm. Maybe for you all but not for me it wasn't" I said scowling at her.
"Well I'm sorry." She said apologetically.
"Ya ok. You want to come in?"
"Ya, sure why not. Going home means going back to Gavin." She said following me into the living room. For a while we just sat the talking, but after a while we stopped having nothing else to talk about. We just sat there for a while staring at each other. Then I moved in and kissed her..
