The Crossroad

Carry On World

    "Baz, come on! Just help me bring this last box upstairs." Simon nudged his former roommate with his arm. After losing all of his magic, he's had to do things the Normal way.

    "No." Baz smirked, "The Chosen One needs to do crap alone. The Normal way."

    "I'm not the Chosen One..." Simon pouted.

    "How many times do I have to tell you, Snow?" Baz snarled,"You will always be my Chosen One."

    "That's sweet," Penelope appeared out of nowhere, "but there is still more work to do. So, less flirting, more lifting."

    "Can I lift Simon instead?" Baz asked innocently.

    "Merlin no, Baz," Penelope sighed.

    What?" Simon protested, but Baz was already swooping him up into his arms.

    "Why?" Penelope asked to the sky.

    Simon and Baz burst into laughter.

    After Simon got all of his stuff up to his room, he and Baz went on a walk, leaving Penny at the flat. It will be the last time they will be this close to each other for a while. When Baz graduated from Watford, he and his now Normal boyfriend, Simon, decided that it's time they try growing up. Simon and Penny got a flat together in London as roommates. Baz decided to get a flat somewhere in Hampshire with some Normal for a roommate.

    "I'm really going to miss you," Simon said to Baz while walking through the streets of London.

    "I'll visit frequently." Baz promised, holding Simon's hand. Baz was, as always, cold.

    "But still," Simon pouted for the second time this day, "I want to always be with you."

    "Snow, it's time we both try something different. Maybe in the future we will get together. But the world isn't a wish-granting machine."

    Baz felt Simon's tail whip around, "It's just-" he sighed in frustration. Snow might never learn how to use his words. "I like you close to me. Just like now." Simon held Baz's hand tighter.

    "I know, Simon." Baz stopped walking. He took hold of Simon's face and kissed him softly. A bit of aggressiveness can be noted, though.

    Simon broke away from Baz, but whatever he was about to say was cut off.

    "Watch out, London, because Captain Leo Mcshizzle is here, baby!!!" A scrawny guy shouted. But that wasn't the weirdest part. There was a huge boat flying up in the air, and the Normals were acting like there wasn't anything peculiar, except for a woman wearing a scarf in summer.

     The two lovers immediately separated and gawked at the puny dude in the gigantic boat. Then, some more people peaked out of the boat. Most of them looked like their age, in purple or orange shirts.

    The said boat landed with ease, a couple of feet away from where Simon and Baz were standing.

    "What in Crowley's name is that?" Baz snarled at the boat.

    "Let's wait and see who they are."

    Simon no longer went off like a smoke alarm, so there was no danger.

    A bunch of teenagers came out of the boat. "Well, isn't London amazing?" One of them, a boy with jet-black hair and sea green eyes, asked a blond girl.

    Based on their american accents, Simon thought they must be tourists.

    "We've only just landed," the girl answered back.

    There was something different about these people. They seemed powerful, yet they seemed more like Normals than mages.

    Simon directed his focus on the boat, but the more time he looked at it, the blurrier his vision became. "That's not right," Simon whispered to himself, blinking a few times.

    "I'm tired of waiting." Baz hissed, pulling his wand from his pocket, "Snow, let's go and check them out."
