Magnetic Attractions || The Sisters Grimm

Chapter Two : Puck

A fancy car drives away as we park in front of the Grimm's house. It was just like I imagined. The front yard looked maybe a bit bigger. A kids blue bicycle lay alone on the grass. The house didn't look any different. The same walls, the sane doors. The crack in the window I had accidentally made when I was younger was still there there, gleaming  as it dutifully reflects the sun.

"You ready, Puck?" Jake questions. His bushy eyebrows raised.

"I'm the Trickster King. I'm always ready." The smirk on my face felt misplaced and an uneasy feeling run across my body.

"Fighting fairytale character's are different. I'm asking if you're ready to see the family and... Sabrina" He shoots me a pointed gaze.

I shift uncomfortably in the car seat and turn my gaze back to the house.

Jake knew about those certain feelings I have for her. Don't look at me I didn't tell him. Blame it on Grimms and their eerie detective skills.

"I'll be okay."

"Then lets go. They should be waiting for us." Jake climbs out of the car and slams the door.

I let out a breath that I've been holding. Jake crouches down to the window and looks at the no doubt tense looking boy in his passenger seat, then shoots me a smile before walking around.

Just as I begin to contemplate hoping in the driver's seat and driving away, a grey haired old lady opens the house door and hurries to her son with a wide smile on her face.

She embraces him tightly her eyes shut.

The old lady looked the same with maybe a few more wrinkles and shorter hair. Something about her was different from when I last saw her. She seemed more... content and relaxed. Her stress free blue eyes twinkle.

Familiar heads make their way out of the house.
Henry, Veronica, Red, Daphne...Was that little Marshmallow? My eyes widen as I see a short, brunette teenage girl rush out of the house with big wide eyes.
... Little my left butt cheek.

She had grown.

I wonder if Sabrina has too.

Where is she anyways.
She probably hates me for leaving her.

I don't blame her.

I sigh before making my way out of the car. The cold air forces its way into me and threatens to choke me with its icy numb feeling. The feeling of dread overcomes my senses.

The old lady's eyes widen as she spots me. "Puck?"

I knew I had grown older. I was eighteen now, no longer a kid. I wonder why I hadn't grown up sooner. Adults have well more fun. Now I could control the rate I could grow older. Sabrina should be seventeen this year. There was a lot you could do when you were eighteen.

I refrain from squirming uncomfortable in all of their gaze and give them a small wave and smile. A mischievous smile, Jake always says.

The old lady pushes Jake aside and wraps me in her warm embrace. She smelled like freshly baked goods.

"Alright old lady. That's enough" I declare but unable to keep the happy smile on my face.

She pushes back and holds me at arms length. Her eyes water as she looks at me up and down. "Oh liebling you've grown up so much."

"Yeah I know. You have too."

Granny Relda rolls her eyes and smiles amused.

I hear giggling from behind Granny Relda. I glance over to see Daphne and Red looking at me and giggling. I frown, perplexed and smile at them.
