juliet the valentine fairy

kirsty tate paced from the front hall to the kitchen and back again. she pulled aside the curtain and looked out the window. there was still no sing of her best friend, rachel walker. kirsty glanced at the grandfather clock in the corner and sighed. the valentine's card workshop had already started. why was rachel so late? kirsty stared out the window, hoping the walkers' familiar station wagon would magically appear but she knew that she couldn't just make magic happen. the truth was, she and rachel knew a lot about magic! they had learned about it from their good friends, the fairies. the two girls had first met on a trip to rainspell island. there, they helped the seven rainbow fairies, who had been sent away from fairyland by the wicked jack frost. rachel and kirsty made a great team. the king and queen of fairyland came to rely on the girls whenever jack frost and his globins were causing trouble. kirsty was happy that the fairies could trust them, and she knew she knew she could trust rachel,too. she couldn't help smiling when she spotted the station wagon turning down her street. as the car pulled into the tates' driveway, rachel waved cheerfully to kirsty, who hurried out to help with her mom good-bye. "hello, kirsty!" mrs. walker said. she turned back to her daughter. "rachel, please call and let me know what time i should pick you up on sunday." rachel nodded and waved as her mom drove off.
