Charms

Chapter 18: Falling Into Place

The next day, Sabrina approached Spencer at school with rage.

"Hello, backstabber!" Sabrina said.

"Woah! What's wrong?" Spencer asked.

"Don't play dumb with me! I know that you went out with Ally last night," Sabrina replied.

"So?"

"You're such a jerk! I can't believe you right now!"

"I don't understand why you are mad. It's not like you and I are actually dating!"

"I know, but Brock told me last Saturday that he still has feelings for me! I rejected him because I knew that it would be selfish for me to ruin your chances with Ally, but now I know that you're the selfish one." Sabrina walked away from Spencer without looking back.

"Wait!" Spencer shouted.

"What do you want from me?" Sabrina asked.

"I want you to forgive me. I'm sorry for not putting myself into your shoes."

Sabrina scoffed. "Sorry isn't going to cut it, Spencer! I might never have a chance with Brock again!"

"Why can't you just go back to Brock and ask him if you can start over?"

"I'm not sure if what he's feeling for me is real this time."

Spencer gave Sabrina a warm hug.

"I'm sorry, Bri!" Spencer said.

"Wait, what did you call me?" Sabrina asked.

"Bri. It was my nickname for you back in fourth grade. Don't you remember?"

Sabrina remembered being called Bri, but not by Spencer. Sabrina tried her best to connect the dots.

"That mystery caller was referring to me!"

Spencer gave Sabrina a confused look.

"A random person called me last night, and she referred to me as Bri. I thought she had the wrong number, but that may not be the case," Sabrina explained. "What if that mystery caller was Aunt Ruby trying to send me a message?"

"Why wouldn't her ghost tell you directly like she's done in the past?" Spencer asked.

"I don't know, but I'll figure out. Will you go to the Charmanian Headquarters with me after school?" Sabrina said.

"Sure!"

At those last words, Sabrina and Spencer walked into their first period class. When they walked in, Brock handed Sabrina a note as she took her seat.

"I hope you feel the same way," Brock said before passing the note to her. Without hesitation, Sabrina opened the note and began to read it.

I heard that Spencer is going out with Ally, so I decided to pour my heart out to you and tell you what I really feel, the note read. I wrote this poem for you, and I promise that I'm telling the truth. I'm no longer confused, and quite frankly, I'm embarrassed to have ever been.

Sabrina looked up at Brock and smiled. He smiled back, and Sabrina could see the sparkle in his eyes. She then looked back at the note so she could read Brock's poem.

When I first met you on that beautiful night,
I knew that it was love at first sight.
In this crazy ride, your voice is what takes me home.
It makes me feel safe in this world that I don't know.
Your eyes draw me in as if I'm in a trance.
Oh, how I can't ignore this romance!
The feelings I have for you cannot be denied.
It is impossible, even if I tried.

Sabrina couldn't believe her eyes. Of course she felt the same way about him, but she was tired of getting her heartbroken because of Aunt Ruby. She told Brock that she would consider being his girlfriend again. Sabrina needed some time to think things through before she started a relationship that might not last.

School finally ended, and Sabrina and Spencer made their way to the Charmanian Headquarters. Even though they were walk-ins, they were taken immediately, since there was barely anyone in the waiting room.

"Your Highnesses," Sabrina and Spencer said in unison as they bowed.

"Welcome, Sabrina and Spencer! How may we be of your service?" Queen Blue asked.

"I received a mystery call the other day, Your Highness, and I figured it was Aunt Ruby's ghost trying to communicate with me. I'm not sure what she was saying or why she didn't tell me directly," Sabrina replied.

"Grayson didn't tell you what he did?" Queen Violet questioned.

"No, Your Highness," Sabrina said, confused.

"That day when he said he'll make it up to you for complicating your life, he did. He came to us and asked us what he could do to make your life better. He followed our orders, which was to simply appologize to Aunt Ruby's spirit. She forgave him, which eliminated the reasons for her being an Charmanian-bound spirit. She couldn't tell you directly or clearly that she was going to Heaven because she was slowly losing her connection to Charmania. Grayson couldn't have told you until today because if anyone mentions her name before 4 days are up, she'll return back to Charmania. Don't worry, Sabrina! Aunt Ruby is no longer your problem! Everything is falling into place," Queen Jade informed.

Sabrina was a mixture of surprised and thrilled. Spencer gave Sabrina a warm hug. Everything is finally the way it's supposed to be! Ally is with Spencer, Sabrina will soon be with Brock, and Aunt Ruby can't do anything to change that. All of the weight fell of Sabrina's shoulders.

"Thank you so much, Your Highnesses!" Sabrina exclaimed.

"I'm glad to be of your service!" the Ultrakeepers said in unison.

Sabrina walked out of the Charmanian Headquarters with light steps for the first time in what seemed like forever.
