Charmed Again (Part 2/3)

Chapter 27

Luckily nobody saw us orb in because we were hiding behind a huge plant. Wyatt then casually strode into the restaurant, tugging me along with him.

All of the staff were saying hi and were waving to him. Two of them even cleared a table for both of us to sit down at. Soon after we had our table, two menu's were handed to us.

"You go to you're mothers restaurant for food?" I asked laughing.

"Yeah totally, I can get family discount." He winked.

As I was looking at the menu, Piper had come to our table.

"Hi sweetie, how come you've come here?" She asked giving him a kiss on the cheek.

"Anna and I needed something to do and we were both hungry so I decided to orb us here." Wyatt smiled.

"Okay great, um I'll make you you're favourite and Anna whatever you want it will be on the house." Piper offered.

"Oh look you don't have to do tha-"

"Ah no buts or questions." She interrupted.

They were both looking at me, waiting to order.

"I'll have your best dish." I finally said closing the menu.

Piper took our menu's and then left to go to the kitchen.

I looked around at all the other couples and they had roses on their tables and they were holding each others hands.

Don't worry about those guys, one in four relationships end over dinner....

Wyatt's thought entered my brain and I couldn't help but burst out laughing. I turned back to him and he was laughing into his hands.

This might not be so bad after all...

************************************************

Wyatt and I talked over dinner, telling each other stories and laughing practically through the whole dinner. Wyatt was right, one of the couples did break up over dinner and it was quite the show when she tipped her desert over his head.

It was getting dark and the restaurant was beginning to close up early tonight.

"You know I hate to put a damper on a perfectly wonderful dinner." Wyatt began putting down his glass. "But I need to know what's going on between you and Chris."

My smile immediately dropped and I looked away from him.

Anna, answer me....

I heard his voice sound strong but pleadingly in my head.

"I don't know what's going on. I don't know whether I want to be with him or if I should listen to elders and be with you." I told him.

"Is that the only reason why you'd choose me? Because the elders want you to?" He asked his face hurt.

"No it's not." I started. "If I wasn't in love with Chris as well, I'd choose you within seconds."

He seemed to loosen up a bit after I said that.

"I don't know what to make of this either. But the one thing I do know, is that I'm unconditionally, head over heels in love with you. And I want you to choose me and not my little brother." Wyatt confessed.

I could feel tears swelling up in my eyes but I wouldn't let them fall. I was tired of crying.

"If I choose you, then I'd loose Chris. And if I choose Chris, I'd loose you. Whoever I decide the both of you will never forgive the other. And I can't be the reason why you guys will be torn apart." I said my voice cracking.

Wyatt leaned forward and took my hand.

"You will never loose me. Ever. And I will never loose you. We're imprinted in each others souls and my little brother or you're choice isn't going to stop that. If you choose him I will still protect you with my life." He spoke softly.

I smiled back at him automatically. He gently tugged my hand closer to him but before he could my brain felt like it was exploding.

WYATT!....WYATT! HELP!.....I

The voice was screaming in my brain and I saw that Wyatt heard it too.

"What the hell is that?!" I shouted covering my ears.

"It's Melinda and Chris! They're in danger!" Wyatt frantically said.

He quickly grabbed ahold of me and orbed us to Melinda and Chris.

************************************************

We came to stop in the hallway of the manor. Suddenly there was a tumbling noise and I saw Chris come flying down the stairs.

He slammed down on the floor and was in and out of consciousness. I ran over to him immediately.

"Chris! Can you hear me? Chris open your god damn eyes!" I shouted at him, holding his head in my hands.

Wyatt came rushing next to me and began healing him. All of a sudden, Wyatt got thrown across the room and crashed into the conservatory.

I looked up to see who had thrown him and I couldn't believe who it was. I had to double focus my vision to make sure my eyes were telling me the right things.

Pandora was walking down the stairs, with dark circles around her eyes. Then being dragged by the hair behind her was Melinda.

"Pandora?! What the hell are you doing?!" I screamed at her.

With one motion of her hand I was sent flying back. I hit the wall and crumbled to the floor.

She had reached the bottom of the stairs and stood over Chris. Once my brain could function again I felt a throbbing pain in the back of my head.

I was bewildered and stunned at what just happened. I looked around and saw Wyatt knocked out on the conservatory floor, Chris half conscious by Pandora and Melinda crying next to her.

"Wh-why are you doing this?" I managed to say.

"Because it's time I got my revenge. On you and on him." Pandora said motioning to Wyatt.

"Wha-?" I was interrupted by the shouting of a man.

Rowan.

He came charging at Pandora with a potion in one hand and a knife in the other.

She knocked the potion out of his hand and it smashed on the floor. He only now had the knife.

"Can you actually use that Rowan? You were always pathetic at combat." Pandora snickered.

"R-Rowan, what's going on?" I said.

I put my hand to my head and I felt the warm liquid of my blood pouring from it.

"My queen you have been deceived. This isn't your past friend. Mordered has possessed her to get to you." He explained.

What? Mordered was inside Pandora..?

Of course! That's why she has been so horrible to everyone! That's why she didn't care if Wyatt got hurt because of me. It was Mordered saying those things.

"Well come on Rowan. Give it your best. I'll be sure to make sure you don't survive this time." She snarled.

Rowan then charged at her. It seemed to all happen at once.

She held her hand out in front of her and Rowan began to crumble to the floor. He was suffocating.

I tried my best to gather any strength or energy to form a bolt or to send off an aneurysm. But nothing worked.

Then she took the knife out of his hands and plunged it into his stomach. As Rowan fell to the floor dying, she took one last look at me and grinned.

"I'll see you in Camelot."

Then she, Melinda and Chris disappeared, leaving Rowan for dead, Wyatt unconscious and me utterly hopeless....
