You ambled along in the greenhouse. Cordelia had given you a quick tour before coming here. She showed you the important rooms and the two of you also greeted some other witches hanging around. They seemed nice. Apparently this was basically like a witch school, where witches from all over the world came to learn about their abilities and how to control them. She told you that she was a thing called supreme. They're like the leader of all witches. Powerful and in charge. My supreme crush, you thought while giggling to yourself. They've always lived here in this academy through the generations. You found yourself deeply interested in this new world. Well you didn't really know how your former world was like anyway. However, you felt something when Cordelia began talking about the past supremes. From what you understood her mother was the former supreme before her. Which meant that, Fiona Goode as she was called, lost her powers so that her daughter could rise. The two of you had watched the painting of Fiona Goode hanging on the wall with other supremes. You had peaked a glance at Cordelia. She didn't look that bothered about her mother's death. But, being the sensetive person you were, felt some type of pity from her. You didn't usually snoop around in other's business, but you could feel there was a complex relationship between them. You wanted to comfort her, but quickly came to realize she already moved on from the past. She was a strong woman, both mentally and physically. You admired her for that.

You blinked, coming back to reality as you watched the plants infront of you. You usually doze off like this randomly. You daydreamed a lot. Perhaps that wasn't the best trait in a person.
The greenhouse was beautiful. Full of plants, vines, potions and pots. It felt and looked so aesthetically pleasing. It also smelt nice. You leaned yourself slightly on the table in the middle of the room. Gazing around in the beautiful place. You inhaled the fresh and slightly floral smell before deciding you were ready to meet the rest of the coven.

You entered the kitchen, trying to smile confidently. Your lower lip felt like it was trembling with anxiety. Yes, that was you. A shy girl with horrible social anxiety. You wished you could be like Cordelia. To feel confident and do things without hesitating. But when you felt all eyes on you, you just simply wanted to hide. To hide from all the judging and staring eyes. What if i trip? What if i mix my words? What if i tell a joke and no one laughs? No stop. You mentally slapped yourself again and turned your attention to the already talking Cordelia. She was holding your back in a reassuring gesture. You smiled, grateful for her care.

"And she will be staying here until she feels ready to leave," she said with a loud and clear voice. You could tell she was the supreme by the way she talked to others. So commanding, but not bossy. Oh wait. You didn't listen to a thing she said. Oops. Someone from the crowd of girls reached her arm in the air.
"Yes?" Cordelia said softly.
"Why can't she just go to the police instead of staying here?" the girl questioned. You could tell she wasn't trying to be rude. Just curious.
"I'm sure everything for Sandy is overwhelming to take in. I want to be sure she can settle in, take a few breaths, and then go wherever she'd like when she's ready."
Cordelia was so thoughtful. So pure. So damn gorgeous. You couldn't stop staring at her, and she noticed. She stole a quick peak at you before smiling and answering other questions. Oh shit oh shit, she saw me staring. You felt your whole face burn with embarrasment. The other girls' voices were dull. You couldn't make out their words. It felt like it was just you and Cordelia in this room.
You lifted your palm and rested it on your cheek in an attempt to calm your blushing cheeks down. You were smiling unintentionally.

After meeting the rest of the coven you all sat down to eat in the dining room. Unfortunately you didn't get a seat next to Cordelia. Instead, you sat between a dark ginger haired girl with a lot of curls. She had green eyes and loads of freckles on her face. She looked like a fairy. The other girl to your left had black, straight, hair in a bob style. She had pale skin and looked very intimidating with her black makeup. But you thought she looked cool. You yourself had a short haircut with wild curly blonde locks. You also had amber eyes and a mole on your right cheekbone.
The food was also delicious, but you didn't eat that much for some reason. Just a few bites and you felt full. You never noticed before, but when you patted your stomach you could feel how slim you really were.
"Are you gonna eat that?"
"Huh?"
"No? Okay."
The blackhaired girl took the chicken drumstick from your plate and ate it, not bothering to waste another second. You watched her quietly.
"What's your name?" you asked her while she continued to dig in. She swallowed hard and held out her hand in a stop motion. You waited patiently.
"Cassandra. But you can call me Cass," she answered. She had this edge to her tone that made her sound annoyed, or tired of everything, kind of. You liked her.
"O! And i'm Avril!"
You turned to look at the red-haired girl. You automatically smiled when you saw her excited expression.
"Do you like frogs? Or bees? Or maybe books?" She was bombing you with questions but you only laughed.
"I do like frogs and bees. I like any animal except most insects. And i also like to read books," you chuckled, trying to keep up with her questions.
"Avril calm the fuck down," Cassandra growled and leaned over her plate to get a clearer look at Avril.
"Oh! Sorry!" Avril quickly said and squeezed your hand. "I just get so excited when meeting new people, and you seem so nice!"
"Avril just stop talking for god's sake..." Cassandra muttered. Everything quickly faded away, as you caught Cordelias brown eyes staring directly at you. You could hear Cassandra and Avril starting arguing but it was dull. Because Cordelia had her attention on you. You were frozen in place. You didn't even think of smiling before the moment was over. Just like that. As if it never happened. She had gone back to talking to the others. You bit your lower lip. She's so damn attractive, you thought.
