Boiling Isles: The Next Generation - Act I.

Chapter IX. - Moonlight Conjuring

"...your decision, Celeste..."

Lucia heard this sentence from her mama's mouth when she entered the kitchen with her friends. Luz immediately fell silent when she saw her daughter. Lucia's gaze went back and forth between Celeste and Luz.

"Do you guys want some breakfast?" Luz smiled.

It was then that Lucia realized that there was an empty plate on the table in front of Celeste and her Mama.

"Of course!" Zelmira answered.

Luz immediately stood up and took out a couple of plates, then stood towards the cauldron and began to measure out the portions.

Meanwhile, the others took their seats at the table. A few minutes later, there was a plate of fresh cereal in front of everyone.

"I still don't understand how you can make this simple dish so delicious, Luz." William said as he finished his own portion.

"Human secret." Luz winked cheerfully.

"What kind of human secrets are we talking about?" Gus entered the kitchen with Skara, Willow and Amity.

"Oh, nothing." Luz waved. "Only William inquired about my method of making cereal."

"I see." Gus nodded.

"How is Kevin feeling?" Paulina asked.

"Not very well." Gus replied worriedly. "He is afraid that he won't even be able to go to school on Monday."

"Would a simple witch's cold be so serious for him?" Zelmira raised her eyebrows.

"Unfortunately, yes." Gus sighed. "But I have to go now. I promised Matty that I would go home as soon as I finished here."

"Go ahead." said Luz. "Thanks for the help."

"You're welcome." Gus nodded, then waved to the others and walked out the door.

"Well, I'm going too." said Skara, smiling. "I finally have a free weekend and Boscha doesn't work either, so we can spend it together."

"Mooom!" Zelmira whined. "Do you have to share your love life in front of everyone?!"

"When you'll have someone in your life, this kind of thing won't bother you." answered Skara, glancing at Paulina for a second.

Zelmira opened her mouth to speak, but Skara, without waiting for her daughter's answer, turned around and left the house.

"I can't believe this." Zelmira buried her face in her palm.

"Don't worry about it." Paulina put her hand on Zelmira's shoulder.

The three-eyed witch turned red to the base of her ears as Paulina touched her. Willow hummed and then turned to Luz.

"I'm leaving too. Hunter promised me lunch and I have to get ready for it. Maybe we'll even dance. You also really like slow, romantic dances, don't you Pancake?"

Now Paulina's face was also red and the girl with ash blonde hair, like Zelmira, hid her face in her hands. Willow giggled at that, then said goodbye to everyone and left.

"Thank you for breakfast Luz." William got up from the table and hugged the latina woman.

"Anytime." Luz smiled.

William broke out of the hug and was about to leave the kitchen when Luz said.

"Have a nice date with Violet."

William froze and a small red spot appeared on his face as he looked at Luz in shock.

"From where...?"
