Dan noticed that Maggi hadn't been at school for the last three days. He had begun to worry. After Henry got the threat, Dan began to worry for everyone he cared about. He knew it was low likelihood that something had happened to Maggi, but it didn't stop his anxiety from having a ball. When she didn't show up on the fourth day, he decided he'd ask her. He had her number ,after all." 

Magic Maggie

Hey, I haven't seen you at school the last few days, just wanted to make sure you are alright: Dan

Magic Maggie : im fine. dont worry. 
Magic Maggie : im just not feeling to well

Oh no! I hope you get better soon! : Dan

Magic Maggie : ya me to

Dan was relieved that she was alright, he just hoped she would stay that way. He shrugged and put his phone back into his pocket. He walked through the halls and to his next class. He had never liked ELA, but he knew it was necessary. He sat through the boring lecture, then on to his next class. Then the next after that, and the next after that. When he finally got through the day, he was so bored, he almost couldn't stand up straight. Henry had to almost support him to the car. Dan yawned and crawled into the driver's seat. Falling asleep at the wheel wasn't ideal, so Dan had to be extra vigilant not to fall asleep. Arriving home was a blessing in Dan's mind. He let Henry carry him to the bed and nearly fell asleep right away, but not before hearing Henry mutter : 
"Sleep tight, my sweet." 

Hours later, Dan woke up to it being dark outside with Henry in his pajamas on top of him. Dan smiled softly and laid his head back onto the pillow. He didn't want to wake Henry up, even if he was hungry. He let his mind run over the events of the last month. They captured Captain Night, they became friends with Maggi, they went to a club, and they got a death threat. A lot had happened. Plus, there was more to come, he could tell. The way that Maggi never seemed to truly be there with them at times, the way that the text from the new villain group seemed to be written by someone trying to clearly disguise  their normal style of writing, and how Maggi seemed to be so interested in Kadence, a girl with fire powers. A lot seemed to be revolving around Maggi... He wondered if she was somehow connected..He nearly laughed at himself. Maggi, the wallflower, quiet, kind girl connected with a group of villains? He rolled his eyes. He felt stupid for even suggesting it. Maggi, a villain! Maybe when the sky turns to fire. He closed his eyes again, trying to fall asleep. 

I try not to repeat the same thing for him every. single. time. but, I really hate writing him. I love his character, but he is not better than Maggi. I love her sooo much!! Well, on with it then. Sorry this one is short. Motivation decided to fly out the window! Anyway, I hope you enjoyed!
