Chapter 9: Change

"Come on now, Liam!" Ariana shouted, "We're going to be late for school."

"Seeing as I'm the one carrying all the bags, I wonder why," Liam grunted. "Why do you even have all these books? Some of them aren't even at Junior-level highschool."

"I guess I like to read," Ariana shrugged and continued to walk. Liam chuckled and looked down.

"Nice outfit," he said, noting her change in attire.

"This is the most me I've ever felt in approximately 7 years," Ariana said, smiling at her skintight leather pants.

"No complaints on this end, love," Liam said, admiring her ass but quickly looked away as soon as she noticed.

"Real classy," Ariana grunted. Liam slightly laughed but went back to a more serious tone.

"You realise Lisa performed a witch's sacrifice without actually being a witch, right?" Liam asked.

"I realise that," Ariana said as she could feel her anger rising. A small streak of blue lightning shot out of her fingers on to a cat, killing its small body without Liam realising it. Ariana let out a small chuckle and turned her attention back to her boyfriend.

"Okay, cool. You also realise that she killed your adoptive mother mercilessly too, right?" He asked once more and stopped walking. They had already gotten to the hallway.

"Well, I don't care about Miriam and death was already Knocking at her door so this all seems to work either way for me, love," she said coldly, emphasizing the word "love" to provoke Liam's accent.

"Whatever you say. I'm going to class," Liam said. He dropped Ariana's bag on the floor and walked to his locker, not looking back.

Ariana sighed in annoyance. "Well, thanks, anyways babe!" She shouted. Everyone in the hallway stared at her worryingly. "What!" She screamed at them as they looked at her with more worry.

The bell rang and everyone left. Ariana took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. She could feel the energy rise up in her hands and her eyes brighten up to a blue shade.

"Fuck this" she said and quickly walked into the Janitor's closet, taking numerous deep breaths. The time continued to pass. She didn't care at all about missing classes. She had too much power in her and needed to control it.

"Channel something that makes you feel better," Ariana said to herself as though she was remembering something she had been told. "Sex!" she shouted loudly enough for the entire school to hear. She took out her phone and texted Liam, "Meet me in the Janitor's closet after class xoxo."

She smiled in delight, willing to sit in there until the end of all the classes. She tried to fall asleep but failed as all the energy consumed her.

After class
Liam walked to the Janitor's closet and opened the door unsure of what he would find in it. Lucky enough, he found Ariana at the corner of the room, her eyes still as blue as ever. She got up in delight.

"Liam," she smiled.

"Your eyes – are you okay?" He asked, filled with worry.

"Kiss me," she said.

"Are you really in the state for that? I mean I know it's hard and you're changing and all but we can get through this–" he went on but got cut off by a deep kiss from Ariana leaving him speechless.

"Still worried about my eyes?" She smirked.

"You know, it's kind of hot now that I think about it," he said and kissed her back passionately, pushing her to a wall to take her in. She smiled at him and kissed him back deeply.

She quickly took off her shirt, exposing her full breasts in a bright-pink bra. "Wow", he said, mesmerized by her. He gently carried her up, her legs wrapped around him and his hands firmly holding on to her buttocks.

She kissed him once more and whispered evilly into his ear, "I bet Pheobe would've really enjoyed this." He quickly let go of her and placed his hands on his head in frustration.

"Pheobe – Where's Pheobe!" He said with anger.

"Hey, don't go all werewolf on me," she walked over to him and began caressing his hair gently, "Don't act like you didn't absolutely love that, Liam. We can go on. It can be just us." She smirked.

He turned his head away from her. "Not without her," he said sternly.

"Fine. She's going to breakup with you anyway," she moved closer to him, her body pressed on his "Plus, I just liked you for the sex. I mean, didn't you like it?" She said as she moved her hand slowly towards his grey-area and clenched it firmly. Liam's eyes widened as all he felt was violation but equally, pleasure.

"Stop that," Liam said almost breathlessly, only making her run her fingers around it, still smirking maniacally at him before being interrupted by the Janitor, who stared at them in bewilderment. Liam closed his eyes as he could feel the embarrassment overflow him. Ariana let go of him, still with a smile on her face. He quickly left, leaving Ariana in the room, trying to pay as little attention to the Janitor as possible.

The Janitor stared at Ariana, signaling her to leave. "Can I at least wear my blouse first? It is getting quite hot in here, isn't it, Mr," she stopped to read his name tag, "Kagona," she smiled.

"I'm gay, young lady," he said causing her to sigh.

"Too bad. I would've enjoyed you," she shrugged and put her blouse back on. She smiled at him and exited the closet.

"Stay in school!" He shouted and sighed. He grabbed a mop.

"Kids." He grunted.
