Wicked Witchcraft (Stiles Stilinski)

Sweet Dreams are not Made of This

I kept my word to Stiles, I stayed out of any and all things supernatural for the next two weeks. The only thing I did requiring any supernatural element pertained to my own abilities.

I had explained to Ginny what had happened over at the Glen Capri Motel, and she hugged me. She never said I told you so or This is why you should listen to me. She just hugged me while I cried for two hours straight. That was one of the things I loved about Ginny, she was never one to push her discipline over my feelings.

I told her I was done with Scott and his problems, and that I was really going to try and live a normal life. Ginny looked at me, her lips in a tight line, but she nodded all the same. She told me that I would still need to work on my magic with her, and that we could delve further into potion craft if I wanted. She taught me every couple of days, leaving the ones in between for me to focus on school.

Knowing literally everything that school had to offer meant that I was bored nine times out of ten. My homework was always done as soon as I got home, so I started picking up other hobbies. One of those was online shopping.

I remember one evening I was sitting in my room, when Ginny came home and walked in to see boxes upon boxes of things from Amazon.

"What's all this?" she asked me, eyebrows raised.

"Stuff," I replied. She scanned the room and pointed in the corner.

"I didn't know you could play," she mentioned as she went to pick up the guitar that I had just bought.

"I learned last night."

"You learned to play an instrument last night?"

"Yeah, took like four hours,"

She shook her head, "And where are you getting the money to buy all of this stuff, June?"

"You know where."

"June Child, that's for emergencies only!"

"Yeah, because I'm going to blow through millions of dollars before a real emergency Ginny."

She pinched her nose, "June, if you're so bored, try getting a job, or writing in your journal, or something - "

"Normal?" I finished her sentence. She looked up at me.

"It's okay to miss them, June."

"Miss who? As far as I know, I still hang out with my real friends. Lydia, Allison, and I were actually planning to go to San Francisco soon, after - "

"After the sacrifices stop and the alpha pack is dealt with?"

I sighed, "I don't get it, Ginny. I'm not involving myself, just like you asked! Why do you keep mentioning it?"

"I just hate seeing you like this, June! You're so – "

"So what? Content? Normal? Fine?"

This was a conversation we had kept having. I was so lost as to why she kept bringing up the darach and the alphas when she wanted me away from all of that in the first place. I was doing exactly what she had planned for me to do.

"Alright, June. If you want to back out of this, fine. But you are not going to be sitting around here wasting your time. Get outside, go volunteer, or do something purposeful with your time. In the meantime, your debit and credit cards are mine."

"Ginny, they're already saved in my computer."

"Well then delete them, June! Jesus."

"Fine, fine! I wasn't getting bored anyway." I deleted the cards out of my computer, and let Ginny fish through my wallet. She walked out of my room and I sighed.
