Little Lockwood

1.5 Secrets And Take Out

After finding out he had magic you could say that Linkin felt like his life was finally worth something. He felt as if he had found out that his life did have meaning.

Linkin and Grams spent most of the night talking about witch history and the process of magic. Shelia also told him how he was differnt because unlike normal witches he had to acquire magic by absorbing it from an outside source.

Grams made him vow to never let his Grimoire leave his side. After a little practice he used up the energy he had stored and Grams sent him off to bed.

Unbeknownst to her, Linkin had pulled an all nighter, going through some of the parts he could understand of his new spell book.

But now he was back at school after hitching a ride with Bonnie an Elena.

"I'm not saying don't date the guy." Bonnie said as we got out of the car.

"But you told me to jump right in." Elena rebutted.

"Now I'm saying take it slow." Bonnie repeated.

"How about we change topics." Linkin suggested. Both girls just looked at him befor walking on in silence.

"Why the "about" face?" Elena asked Bonnie not letting it go.

"Ahhh." Linkin mentally groaned.

"It's not an about face." The Bennett girl replied trying to brush off the question.

Elena just gave the girl a look that made Bonnie cave. "Look, your single for the first time in your entire high school career."

"It's the perfect time to experiment and make new experiences with different people." Linkin added.

"Oh, because I'm so that girl." Elena chuckled at her two friends statements. "Plus you've never dated anyone like ever Linkin. You don't know what it's like." She added.

"Harsh." Bonnie said noticing the now sour look on Link's face.

"No she's right." Linkin just agreed. It's not his fault he's never dated anyone. It's not that he's never found anyone attractive, there's been a few girls and some guys that he's had crushes on. But no one seemed to feel the same for him, an even if they did they've never told him.

But after seeing the unstable relationship between his father and Carol, how Tyler treats wemon and his recent run in with Drake. It's kinda scared him from looking for a relationship with anyone.

"Seriously, what are you not saying?" Elena asked now kinda anxious.

"It's stupid." Bonnie said trying to walk ahead only for Elena to geab her arm stopping her. "Bonnie.." she pleeded.

Bonnie just sighed. "I accidentally touched Stefan.. an got I git a really bad feeling." She said.

"Is that it." Elena asked with a disbelieved smile. Bonnie went to walk off again only to be yanked back again by the other aggressively.

"Don't grab her like that." Linkin said in a dark tone, almost like a growl. Elena visibility shocked by Linkins sudden emotional shift let go of the Bennett girl who sent him a slight worried look. She just shrugged it off before turning back to Elena.

"It was bad bad." Bonnie spoke bringing Elenas gaze back to her and away from the angry looking Lockwood boy.

"Is this the whole Witch mojo thing again?" Elena asked jokingly.

"Maby she's just concerned for her best friend." Linkin said mockingly. His voice riddeled with a hint of venom.

Bonnie gave him a quick once over slightly worried about Linkins strange behaviour. "Yair. It's just me showing concern for my best friends new boyfriend." She said to Elena with a small smile.
