Magic in the Air

Chapter Two Midnight

"Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!" I hear someone whisper.

"It's early time!" I groan, rolling over on my other side. The person starts shaking me.

I open my eyes and look at the mysterious person in my room. It's Sean.

I punch my broken alarm clock making the time appear. "It's two in the morning!" I whisper.

Sean smiles. "I know. Come on!" I roll off my bed and put my hair in a sloppy braid so it doesn't look too terrible and hover off the ground so I don't make any sound on the creaky stairs. Sean hits a loud board and I hover him too.

Once we get outside my eyes nearly pop out of my head. A path was lit with candles, leading to a blanket and a basket surrounded by flowers.

"Your highness." He says bowing dramatically. I push into him playfully.

"How did you manage to do all this?" I ask in awe.

"I got help from Jen and Mia. You know when you tell a girl something about a romantic gesture, they will either help or kill you."

We both laugh and sit in the beautiful field.

Sean pull out two large lobster tails. I love lobster, but Jen never makes it because Chrystal refused to eat it.

At breakfast
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Like usual, I sat next to Sean, but today our legs were hooked. Chrystal looks down and nudges me. I smile at her and we eat the French toast Jen brough to the table.

After breakfast in Chrystal's room
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I cover my ears as Chrystal squeals, probably notifying the entire house that something major happened. "Will you keep it down?!" I smile uncontrollably.

"Sorry!" She replies. "It's just... you and Sean! God you've had a crush on him forever!"

"It hasn't been forever!" I defend even though it had been since we met. "But I just can't wait to see the look on Rachel's face tomorrow when she sees us together" I squeal. "She's totally been checking him out!" I sigh and flop back on Chrystal's water bed, making the whole bed move in waves.

Erin had bark ocean blue walls and one aquarium wall with pigmy sharks and ten billion types of fish. Erin could name every kind of fish in the tank, and she could actually communicate with them.

It's actually not that weird that she can communicate with fish. All Aqualettes and Hydrolours could. Aeros and Aeroettes can communicate with birds, Geotetras can communicate with most mammals, and Pyrolites can communicate with snakes and allegedly can communicate with phenixes, if they exist that is.

Chrystal chomps down on a handful of Hot Cheetos, which ironically is her favorite snack. I grab one out of the bag a shove the whole thing in my mouth.

"Oh GOD!" I scream. "How do you eat these?!" I spit out the Cheeto feeling like the dust was burning a hole in my tongue.

"I put the Cheeto in my mouth." she explains, showing me as she speaks. "Then I chew. Then this is the hardest part, like, only half of all people survive this part. You swallow the food."

I roll my eyes just as someone, in my four years here, I had seen, walks into the room.

We have a newcomer.
