The Magic Between Them (ON HOLD)

Chapter 32

     Mitch continues to stare at me, as if trying to read my mind. I look at him, and immediately look away, blushing. I don't think he believes what I said. Shivering, I realize that even Unicity's and my magic combined cannot prevent the house from getting cold. Mitch notices my discomfort and comes over to sit down next to me, pulling me against his chest.

     "That better?" He asks, and I nod into his shoulder. I watch Dash as she slowly walks up to Rob, and I can't help but wonder about what she's about to do. If Dash has a stance like that, you'd better start running. Then, before he can blink, she snatches his phone out of his hand. He protests, as usual, but she runs away, zooming out of the room. Rob immediately begins that chase, and Mitch decides to follow them, helping me up so I can join him. Running to keep up, we both see Rob jumping on the stairs. Huh - I guess Dash flew up to the ceiling there. Now, that is what I call using an advantage.

"PRESTON!!! Get your girlfriend down from the ceiling!" Rob yells, and Preston runs over, knocking me to the ground in his hurry to get to Dash. Smirking, I decide to join Dash in her plot.

"Preston, you shouldn't have done that...." I give him a sly smile, and he slowly turns away from Dash to look at me.

"Whyyyy...?" He asks, starting to back up.

     "Because.... Then....I'll.....Do.....THIS!" I snatch his phone from his hand and fly up to join Dash. I look back at Mitch and he just gives me a smirk. Running up the stairs, Preston attempts to jump up and grab my ankle, but unfortunately fails. He trips on his landing, and falls on top of Rob.

     "Awwwwww!!! POOFLESS!!!!" Next to me, Dash squeals, making sure to hover just above their reach. Mitch sneaks up the stairs and grabs my ankle, pulling me down into his arms.

     "You weren't planning on stealing my phone, now were you?" He asks, giving me a hug and a kiss on the forehead.

     "Not a chance." I tell him, and he just smiles.

     "Good, or I might be tempted to hug you even tighter." He replies, letting me go - but not before another quick kiss on the forehead. Flying back up to Dash, she gives a pointed look at the other boys approaching, and I silently nod in response. I signal to Flit telling her to come over, and then explain my plan. Flit silently goes back behind the boys and pretends to faint. While the boys are distracted by an "oh so poor Flit that has fainted," I begin my plan of action.

     Using my magic, I take all the boys' phones and fly back up. I send a little spark of magic to Flit, and she miraculously recovers. Flying up to where we are, it is at that time that the boys notice their missing phones. Well, except for Mitch. I just couldn't do it to him! And, what it there was an emergency? What would happen then?

     The three of us in the air give each other a small wink, and we take off down the hallway and out an open window, the boys running after in a rage. Flying into my room, I make sure to lock the door and windows (hey, boys will do anything to get their phones back), and then proceed to teleport all the girls into the room. Now, the speech.

     "Girls.... Do you know what night it is?" I ask, giving them all a mischievous grin.

     "PRANK NIGHT!!!" Peony screams, and we all cheer. Moving a little closer together, we begins to whisper ideas to each other. I mean hey, the boys could be outside the door, so.... We should be really careful with what happened.

     Dash officially begins the meeting by starting with her own idea. Giving us all the details we will need, we make our way to the door, ready to start our plan of action once again. Opening the door, we find the boys staring at us, arms crossed and annoyed looks on their faces. Good thing we whispered....
