Alright! Friday again! Year is flying by. Only 141 more days of school! Anywho, the prompt was given to me by airandfire: guest. Disclaimer: I do not own Bloodlines or the characters within the books (darn!)

Eddie tapped his fingers on the computer in rapid-fire succession. Neil, Angeline, Trey, and Mrs. T were crowded on or around the couch all focused on the screen. Sydney and Adrian were in frame, but the others hadn't arrived yet. It had been Adrian's idea to Skype the event since Sydney was terrified. She had reason to be too, after the way the Alchemists had reacted. Lissa, Christian, Rose, Dimitri, Sonya, and Mikhail filed in and glanced at the couple.
Realization dawned on Christian's face when Sydney had nervously stood up and in that split second Eddie knew that he knew. How though? Sydney began talking and Eddie had to resist slapping his forehead. It was statistics, facts, nothing more. She was nervous. A little too nervous from the subtle shifting on Dimitri, Rose, and Mikhail's parts. Finally, she took a breath.
She had turned her palms so they were facing the group and fire licked up her arms. White and blue. The group moved back collectively before Sydney had the chance to put it out. Christian had scrubbed his jaw thoughtfully. She had begun babbling statistics and facts again. Lissa laughed and Eddie sat back relieved. Adrian gave the camera a thumbs-up before shutting the lap-top and everyone sighed. Thank god.
Okay, not the best, but I really liked the prompt and have been wanting to write Sydney revealing her magic so…yeah. Again, enjoy!
