"Here, take this." The supreme handed the small girl a large book, and she stumbled with the weight of it.

"What is it?"

"A spell book, it's about time you learn some."

"I'm only 8."

"You're soft like your mom." Fiona sighed, and the small girl frowned. The door opened, and Cordelia stood there with her arms crossed.

"What are you doing, Fiona?" She asked, crossing the room and taking the book off the girl.

"I told you to stay away from her." Cordelia hissed to her mother, her back turned to the girl.

"That's my granddaughter. I can see her if I want." Fiona said, taking the book from Cordelia's hands.

"You're plaguing her mind!" Cordelia whispered, and gave her mother a wide-eyed look. Fiona knew what that meant. Cordelia shook her head and took the girl's hand, leading her out of the room.

Elora and Michael arrived home quick, as it was early in the morning and there was no traffic. She was in a good mood, so she invited Michael into their apartment, as Nathan was probably still asleep.

Elora quietly unlocked the door, and Michael followed her to the lounge room, where she chucked her duffel bag on the couch.

"Do you want some coffee?" She asked, turning on the machine. Michael shook his head. "I'm going to see if Nate is awake."

The door to their bedroom was slightly open, so she pushed it open.

At first, she couldn't believe what she was seeing.

There were two people in their bed, one was Nathan, and the other was a girl who had blonde hair. They were both visibly naked, and dead asleep.

"Nate?" Elora frowned, and Michael appeared behind her, curious. Nathan slowly sat up, blinking at the sun streaming into the room. His eyes turned wide and his face turned pale as he saw his girlfriend standing in the doorway.

He leapt out of the bed, and both Elora and Michael looked away as he was naked. "Ugh." Elora covered her eyes with her hand. "What the fuck?" She demanded. Both Nathan and Michael were shocked to hear the girl swear.

"Elora, I swear I can explain!" Nathan fumbled with his clothes, and the girl in the bed started to stir.

"Then explain. Who the fuck is that?" Elora yelled, as she felt anger bubble in her stomach. The blonde girl sat up and raised an eyebrow at Elora, looking at her up and down.

Elora stormed into the room, and grabbed the girls' clothes from the ground, throwing them at the blonde. "Get out of here, you whore!" She hissed at the girl, who slowly left the room, smirking slightly. Michael decided that it would be best for him to leave, too.

"Who is that?" Elora demanded, her voice cracking. She could barely look at his face.

"I-it's no one, I swear!" Nathan grabbed Elora's arms. "It was a mistake! I didn't know you were going to be back so early!"
