A bit of magic

seventeen

Guinevere got to her room door to meet it wide open and Tonia was pacing the room,looking a bit flushed and very much annoyed, she wondered what could have put her twin in such a mood and concluded it was probably because of Jeff ,maybe their scheduled class didn't go as planned.

"What's wrong?" Gwen asked her sister,Tonia looked up a bit startled to see her twin there,guess she was more out of it than Gwen had guessed.
"You are back" Tonia noted,not brightly mind you.
"Yes I am,so what happened?" She asked again.
"Ohh its nothing" Tonia lied,it was obvious she was lying cause she was blushing and her face looked as red as a tomato.

"If you want to keep secrets from me,its okay" Gwen replied,pulling the guilt card.
"Gwen its not like that" Tonia rushed to erased that notion from her twin's mind.
"Then what is it like?" Gwen asked ,not really comfortable with secrets between them.
"I just feel very foolish" tonia replied.
"Then let's feel foolish together" Gwen countered

"Well,it went like this" Tonia replied recounting her experience that day with Jeffrey.
As he caressed her cheeks and cupped her face,all the breath went out of tonia,she couldn't think straight,did she want him to kiss her or not,would she like it,Tonia thought to herself overreacting.
"Here, you had ice cream on your cheeks" Jeff flicked the cream away, and backed up,she suddenly felt bereft,what just happened,where did her kiss go to?.

"Ohh thanks" Tonia replied trying to not allow the frustration show in her voice.
"You welcome,had not a terrible night as I thought I would have,but I think I have overstayed my welcome,good night,we should do this another time,the study I mean." and he was off like that,before she had the chance to comprehend what he said,he didnt even wait for a response.

Her dismay at seeing him go,suddenly turned to anger,who was he to rise such a response from her and let it on unanswered?. She stormed into the room and didn't bother locking the door.
"Wow,too much info" Gwen joked but hugged her sister,it wasn't only Tonia having conflicting feelings,she felt as though she was in over her head with Lucas,could it have been Jeff she bumped into when she was on her way to the room,maybe,she soon dismissedthe person from her mind.

"Thank you" Tonia whispered to her sister.
"Well,I too have my moments,am beat, to the bathroom For me" she said as she left her sister. The rest of the night was relatively uncomplicated, Gwen related her own experience too at the gym to Tonia,and Tonia response was as expected,she wanted to pound Sophia into a pulp.

The whole school was abuzz the next day,it would seem another student had been admitted or transfered,tonia couldn't really say,from the little she was able to hear,it wasn't her problem or business,so she soon dismissed the topic from her mind.she was hungry and so it was food and not sleuthing on her mind at the moment.
"What could be the cause of all this talk?" Guinevere asked her sister as they entered the dining hall.

"Hmmm,well since it was both of us that went to bed together and left the dormitory together, I would say I don't know" she remarked drily.
"Someone is hungry" Gwen replied.
"Am sorry,just not in the mood for any deep thought and brain usage at the moment" Tonia replied,as she slid into what has become their permanent table.

"Hey girls" Alexa said as she joined them at the table,things have been a bit strained between them and Alexa,she was so secretive and wouldn't tell them what was bothering her,and they not one to pry left her alone,which caused for very awkward and stilted breakfast conversation.
"Hello" they both replied cautiously,and went back to picking what they felt like eating,summarily dismissing Alexa.

"How are your classes going?" Alexa asked, trying to start up a conversation, after weeks of silence,they both didn't know what to say about the sudden change.
"Well I suppose" Gwen replied.
"Have you girls heard?" Alexa asked,seemingly unaffected by the somewhat awkward feeling in the air.
"About what exactly?" Tonia asked.

"The new transfer student from another academy?" She replied
"Not really,there is another academy?" Gwen replied
"Yes there is another academy, this is the only one on this continent, but there are others in the world,he is said to be from the sister school in london?. We are not great in numbers,we with magical abilities, but the powers that may be had school's situated round the world,to offer shelter for anyone who was considered weird or abnormal by the non magical beings." She replied,Alexa did know how to talk very fast.

"Oh" was tonia's reply to what she just said.
"Back to the new student, he is rumored to be very handsome, a ladies charmer and a rogue, but that is not what got the whole school abuzz" she stopped for effect.
"What is?" Tonia snapped,not having patience for suspense.
"It is said to be that he might be a third,as no one knows his exact power or the extent of it" she said in a stage voice,keeping them all in trance at her story.

Author's note:who do you think, is the new student and can you guess his name?"
