Magiclicas Nonsense

"Standing Here Naked" came on the radio as I was writing this and my brain went literally directly to "Connor is Standing Here Naked" as soon as I realized which song it was XD

"Okay class, today we're visiting the school garden. As many of you probably know, Everston has many facilities to accommodate for all types of magic and special powers. However, unless you're special ability or interest has to do with many of the facilities, you're not likely to know about them." Mister Foley explained while glancing at Ivy. The girl with the flower crown had almost literally lit up at the first mention of the garden.

"You seem excited," Melissa commented knowingly. Ivy had an elated look on her face.

"Are you kidding?! The school garden is like, my favorite place in the entire school! I love that we get to visit it in class!" She exclaimed.

Melissa rolled her eyes. "Well now ill know where to find you when you mysteriously disappear twice a week."

Mister Foley ushered the class up and out into the hallway.

"G-guess you'll be in y-your e-element, huh I-Ivy?" Chase questioned with a hint of hesitation.

Ivy nodded as she skipped along. "Mhm!" Her eyes widened and she spun on Quinston. "No using either of your powers near my plants! I don't want to see any leaf crisped or frosted!"

The boy's green eyes widened and he raised his hands in a mock surrender. "No plant-harming intended, m'lady," he promised.

Ivy nodded approvingly. "Just making sure."

Mister Foley led the class out the front doors, then went around the side of the school to the back. They went under an arch made out of a bush, and they were suddenly transported to an alternate universe.

The sun shone brightly on the open planters. Butterflies and bees buzzed and fluttered about, making a few students freak out and dance as they dodged the black-and-yellow pollinators. There was a grid of planters about four-by-four feet each, with all sorts of colorful plants growing. Some had vegetables like tomatoes, cucumbers, and lettuce, while others had rose bushes and tulips, hydrangeas and dahlias. Along the edges of the secluded area surrounded by shrubbery and a few planted in pots were medium-sized trees, a few with fruit like apples or cherries or lemons dangling from the branches.

Ivy was grinning like an idiot. "Welcome to the Everston gardens!" She announced for Mister Foley. He frowned but let it pass as the rest of the class gasped in awe.

"This place is awesome!" LuLu exclaimed. Jin said something excitedly in Korean and started bouncing between the planters. Ivy waved to her friends.

"I can give you guys the grand tour! C'mon!" She grabbed Melissa's hand and pulled the laughing bluenette along. Chase and Quinston followed. As they passed by the dinosaur Magiclica, Ivy paused before smiling at Kaya and grabbing her hand too. Kaya was surprised and she made a sound of protest, but Ivy dragged her into her "grand tour" as well. The boys shared a confused look, but said nothing.

Ivy started pointing out signs and marking on the large grow beds. She basically knew this place by heart, as she spent a lot of her lunches here before Mel came and befriended her. Many of the beds were from students with similar powers as the purple-haired girl; or maybe just had an interest in gardening; from previous years, as there weren't many students that had those traits this year. Ivy cared for all the plants when they needed it.

"These plants are my babies," she had said in a dead serious tone when Quinston asked about it.

Kaya giggled. "Like my fanfics!" She and Ivy high-fived. Melissa looked puzzled while Quinston immediately started blushing.
