A New Beginning | Emma Petrova (TVD & TO) [BOOK 2]

Let's make this moment last

Miracle's Pov

I breathe heavily as I keep dragging Maria from the kitchen to the living room. God, I should've just made a spell to move her from one place to the other because I'm sure as hell it would take less time than dragging her.

No, she's not dead if that's what you're thinking, I just did a little sleeping spell on her and even when I wake her up she won't notice that time went by or that I did what I did.

Maybe, you're asking why I did that...

...well, I just found out that my mother has been missing for the last few days. I eavesdrop on their phone call and I knew that I'm completely useless if I stay here. So, I decided to put Maria to sleep and now I need to find a ride to go to the Salvatore School.

Also, I'm super pissed no one told me about my mother missing, my dad and mom being back in New Orleans and Hope is back at the Salvatore School, while Caroline is in France for some reason which makes this better since fooling Ric is the easiest thing to do.

My mom used to tell me all the time that when Hope and I would do magic together, we were much more powerful than aunt Freya alone. I figured that if we join our magic together again that we will be able to track our mother down.

For many years now I have been writing and rewriting a shield spell that could allow Hope and I to be in the same place for a few days, I've never been able to extend the spell for longer.

How do I know how long it lasts?

I might've tested it when aunt Rebekah came to visit my mother, thinking that I was at a sleepover far away enough from her but I sneaked back into the house just to catch a glimpse of her and nothing happened, which is why no one ever found out about the spell or my aunt's and I conversation.

I finally reach the side of the sofa and I grab a pillow, putting it under her head. I really have no more energy to pick her up and put her on the sofa. I'm really sorry Maria and I just hope you don't complain about your back pain afterwards.

Now I need a ride to the airport, but who do I know that drives?

I sit on the couch, looking at the empty four walls and I'm wondering who could help me before a light goes off in my brain. I can't ask him because I don't want to make it look like I'm using him because I know of his feelings for me.

What's so special about me than all of those girls at school? Yeah, I have powers but he doesn't know it!

I walk over to my room and pick up the bag that I have packed in emergencies because I'm paranoid about the house burning down and I need all my important stuff packed in a bag to grab and just walk out whenever.

Strolling out of the apartment after locking the door properly and sending a text to my mom through Maria's phone, I look around still wondering how the hell I'm going to get a ride to the airport.

"Hey, what's up?" The voice snaps me out of my hopeless prayers and makes my head swing to the side to look at who the voice belongs to but I keep walking as the car slowly follows me. "You're way too pretty to be out here by yourself."

"Andre, I'm fine. I just..." I shoot him a small smile but my eyebrows raise because he literally appeared out of nowhere.

"Why are you here? There's basically creeps every ten steps you take." He exaggerates like usually, making me crack a huge smile while I look around the street.

"I'm looking for a ride." I confess with a small shrug.

"To where? Your house is the other way though." He bluntly states, taking me back in surprise not knowing how he knows where I live but he seems to notice the look on my face because he starts stumbling words to explain himself. "I've been there on your birthday last year."
