Chapter 6: Brocina's Date

"You're really sweet, Brock. I can't wait for our date!" Sabrina replied after daydreaming.

"Me too! I was thinking that maybe we could go to the Unico Chibo Italian restaurant. Do you like Italian food?"

"Yes! It's my favorite actually."

"Great! Friday night at 7?"

"I'll be there!"

Brock flashed a bright smile at Sabrina before their math teacher, Mr. Chapman, entered the classroom. Sabrina smiled back at Brock and began listening to Mr. Chapman's lecture.

When the class period was over, Sabrina was stopped by Ally on her way out of the classroom.

"What do you want, Ally?" Sabrina asked.

"Brock, and I will get him! Watch your back, Sabrina. I always get what I want."

At that, Ally walked away with confidence written all over her face.

"Well, you won't this time! Brock just asked me out," Sabrina said, causing Ally to turn around.

As if on cue, Brock walked over to Sabrina and put his arm around her.

"Leave her alone, Ally!" Brock demanded.

Ally let out an angry squeal and walked away. Why did Queen Blue say that Aunt Ruby had unlimited power? I guess the power of true love beats the power of spirits in Charmania, Sabrina thought to herself as she and Brock walked to second period together.

When Friday night finally arrived, Sabrina had already been showered by warnings from Lauren, Carter, and Ally to stay away from Brock. Sabrina ignored them because when she's with Brock, she's the happiest person in Charmania and Earth combined. Sabrina walked out of the room after hours of preparation for her date.

Once she got out, Lauren and Carter's eyes widened. She even saw tears creeping down Lauren's face.

"Honey, you look beautiful!"
Lauren exclaimed.

"Absolutely gorgeous!" Carter added.

"Thank you!" Sabrina replied.

Sabrina had curled her naturally straight, blonde hair. She parted her hair to the side for the first time for more of a transformed appearance. Since she had layers in her long hair, the curls were eye-catching and had a lot of movement. She was wearing a black dress with splashes of pink, lavender, and light blue (literally looking like splashes of paint) with a fuchsia belt that contained gold in the center. She was wearing wedges that matched the belt and a small handbag with black sequins. She also had small, gold hoop earrings and natural-looking makeup to top off the look. The makeup had brought out her blue eyes.

"Ok, let's go! You don't want to be late for your first date," Carter said.

Carter and Sabrina kissed Lauren on the cheek on their way out of the door and headed for Unico Chibo. Carter dropped Sabrina off at the front entrance and left.

"Wow, Sabrina! You look gorgeous!" Brock practically shouted from their reserved seat. Everyone in the building turned around and faced Brock and Sabrina.

"Sorry!" Brock said in a quieter voice.

Sabrina laughed thinking it was cute how Brock announced her beauty.

"It's okay," she said to him, causing him to smile. "You look very handsome yourself."

The couple laughed and ordered their meal. They started asking each other about themselves and their past lives. Sabrina learned that Brock was really sweet-- not that she didn't know that before-- and he wasn't the type that keeps a lot of secrets. Additionally, He
volunteers to help provide food for the less fortunate. He is also very athletic. Brock plays football, baseball, and basketball. However, he doesn't let sports get in the way of his academic life and has made straight A's since third grade. I have myself quite a guy, don't I?Sabrina thought to herself.

The date was going really well. The waitress had said that Brock and Sabrina were a cute couple, and the two lovebirds couldn't have agreed more. It was getting late, so Brock and Sabrina started heading out the door while holding hands.

The night sky was even more beautiful than it was when Sabrina and Brock had first met. It was the perfect romantic scene.

"I had a great time tonight, Brock!" Sabrina said.

"Me too!" Brock replied.

Suddenly, Brock leaned in for a kiss. Sabrina felt as if she was living in a dream and leaned in too. Right when their lips were about to touch, Brock gently pushed Sabrina away.

"What's wrong?" Sabrina asked.

Brock did not reply. Instead, he looked out in the distance as if he laid eyes on the most beautiful thing in the world. With a confused facial expression, Sabrina turned around and saw Ally. What was she doing here?

"I told you I always get what I want!" Ally replied.

Ally looked so beautiful, even more beautiful than Sabrina. Of course she had to wear all red; Sabrina didn't stand a chance. Ally shoved Sabrina even further out of Brock's sight and started to kiss him. Sabrina was so hurt, so she didn't even bother calling Carter to pick her up; she just ran home. Tears, mascara, and eyeliner ran down her face as she realized what had happened.

"I am going to confuse the life out of Brock! He'll never know who to choose," Aunt Ruby's spirit whispered into Sabrina's ear.
