After

Chapter 1

     I woke up, crying in my pillow, knowing that I lost almost everything. At least I still have Marco and his family, and friends. All of a sudden I saw flashing lights, I looked up and it was my wand, flashing from pink to green. I stopped crying, and with the last of my tears falling from my eyes, I stood up from my bed and went to investigate. "Hey, Glossaryck, why is my wand acting up?" I asked. I then turned around to realize that the tiny man of magic and my spell book were gone. I looked down to the floor remembering that Ludo had taken it from me, "Oh...right," I said to myself, with the biggest most depressing sound I've ever made in my whole entire life, I sighed. I ignored and soon after I went downstairs to eat breakfast. It was Saturday, and it was 7:00 A.M. I ignored my body wanting to go back to bed, I was downstairs pouring myself a small bowl of cereal and sat in a chair at the table in the dark.

    At this time in the morning I would usually be sleeping in my comfy bed, but ever since last night at the grave yard my head's been out of whack. Everyone in the house either wakes up at 9 or 10 in the morning, but as I was sitting on the chair, with my night gown looking horrible as ever, I heard the wooden floor to the stairs creek. I looked up and in the little beam of sun I saw Marco rubbing his eyes yawning. I smiled a little bit and then looked back at my bowl with the frown back on my face. "What are you doing up? I thought I thought I heard the little pitter patter of a sneaky mouse running by my door; so I came to investigate when I find out it was a sneaky star instead" he whispered with a very light chuckle and the cutest smile I've ever seen... wait..did I just... never mind, I shook my head to shake away that familiar, but new thought, and made sure it was light enough he wouldn't notice. At the moment, as far as Marco and me knew, Mr. and Mrs. Diaz were still asleep.

   I lightly forced a little chuckle of my own. He came down the rest of the steps and, it looked like, he was still investigating. Marco pulled out the chair, next to the one I was sitting at, and sat down. I looked him straight into his eyes, his dark brown eyes of his, and then he opened his arms. I went into is embrace, I sniffled a little, and then went to lightly crying. After last night, it was my fault, it was my fault because, when I saw them together I got jealous, and I don't know why, but I do know I would get to the bottom of it. Right now I needed to focus on getting Glossaryck and the spell book back. I went out of Marcos embrace, and rubbed my eyes with the palms of my hands. I looked down at his night shirt and saw it was a little damp. I laughed a little as I tried to make it lessen by damping it. Instead all I did was make him cold, making it press against his chest. He shivered a little bit, but then we started to laugh.

   I looked down to the floor, with my body facing him, and said, "Thank you...I needed that," I then looked up and gave him a little smile. Anytime, he stated. He then opened his mouth again to speak once more. Don't worry, well get your spell book, and as much as I dislike him, he smirked, Well get him back too he said in a goofy voice. I giggled a little, and all of a sudden, my eyes started to droop. I shook my head so I could stay up, and it seemed like Marco noticed, because he had a concerned look on his face. "Hey, you never told me," he said calmly and generously, "Why are you up?" he asked concerned. "I...I couldn't sleep, almost all night I stayed up and couldn't sleep, asking myself, what is my mom going to say? Who's going to train me if Glossaryck is gone? Will I ever get him back?" I paused, but he stayed quiet and so I kept going, "I just... I just feel so stressed and so not myself..and..I don't like it. Maybe when I go to school or just be around someone I'll be okay, but...there is no guarantee," I finished and then he spoke, "You need your sleep, maybe it would be better if you slept with me, in my room," he took a three second pause, "Maybe that would make you feel better?" he asked. I nodded my head and he took my hand and we headed to his room.

   We were in his room and we got in his bed, but before we could settle down, he got up, and got an extra pillow out of his closet. I put my head up so he could lay down the pillow. We told each other good night, even though it was 7:48 A.M., and fell asleep. Marco being on the left and me being on the right of his bed, both looking the opposite way. I woke up, and noticed Marco wasn't in the bed. He probably went downstairs earlier, I thought as I felt that it was cold where he slept.I felt refreshed and ready to rock and roll, but when I looked at the clock on Marco's desk it was, 4:00 IN THE LATE AFTERNOON! I knew it was Saturday, but I could have done so many awesome things today with the time that passed. Forgetting all about being sad and depressing, with feeling new and realizing what time it is. I ran to my room to get dressed, in my sea foam green dress with teal colored folded down collar, with teal colored waves at the bottom, and putting on my light purple horizontal leggings, and white boots. I ran downstairs but I suddenly stop to a halt, to find someone sitting in my usual seat next to Marco at the kitchen table.
