An Emotional Connection

A Potions Mishap

Amity POV

Amity awoke to the alarm on her crystal ball blaring. She managed to silence it after poking it twice and got out of bed to get ready for the day. After brushing her tangled hair and putting it up into her signature ponytail  she rummaged around awhile for her Hexide uniform. After a few minutes she spotted the black and pink colors of the uniform and quickly changed into it.

Amity silently open her door and peek down the hallway to see if Edric and Emira's doors where open or not. 'they dont appear to be up.' She thought to herself as she silently made her way through the hall and down the stairs. Amity froze on the last step as a creak echos through the house and two doors swing open loudly. 'FUCK' she thought as the twins reach the top of the staircase.

"Good morning Mittens." they call out simultaneously as if they were one entity, wich Amity is starting to think might be true. "Morning Ed, Morning Em" she called out, the lack of sleep laced in her voice. They walked down the stairs and flanked her on both sides. "Up all night obsessing over Luz again?" Emira called out from her right.

Edric than began to speak " Y'know it would be easier to ask her out if you stopped obsessing over her for a bit." Amity felt a blush rise to her face and spread to her ears as the twins keep talking about Luz. 'Unfortunately they might be right. There is a chance that Luz doesn't like me back and if I keep obsessing I run the risk of saying something stupid around her.' Amity begins to walk into the kitchen as Ed and Em begin to annoy each other. With their sights set on each other she my be able to have a quiet breakfast.

She decides to have cereal for breakfast and began to gather the required ingredients and mix them together in a bowl. She decides to eat in the kitchen since our parents were already gone and the dining room felt too empty even if they where here. Amity eats in silence as Edric makes the mistake of teasing Em about Viney. The sound of a spell being cast could be heard before they both walked in.

Amity looked them both up and down before snorting at Edric's appearance. They both looked the same except on Edric's forehead the word 'Glandus' could be seen. She had to admit that Em was good, that one word would make Ed's day hell. Amity forced down her laughter as she put her bowl away to clean. " Have a Great day at school you two." She called out with a slight chuckle as she grabbed her books and started out towards Hexide before losing herself in thought.

40 minutes later the castle design of Hexide came into view as Amity looked around and saw students from all the tracks begin to enter the school. She bounced up the steps and began to make my way to my first class.

<<Time Skip brought to you by Plot progression>>

Amity began to brighten up as she approached the best class so far, that ranking may or may not have to do with her crush attending said class. She entered the class to see that Luz has saved her a seat for the partner project of todays class. She quickly sat down and tried not to stare at Luz as we wait for the teacher.

After a few minutes the teacher clapped his hands to gather everyone's attention. "Good day Class. I see you have followed instructions and partnered up for todays brewing of a diluted Two Way Binding potion. The effects of this potion will only last a few hours, but I must warn you to only take a sip and absolutely avoid getting any on your face. Past witches have suffered the effects becoming permanent or at the very least lasting longer"

Amity look over to Luz who seems to have shrugged off the warning. She look down to see her cut some ginger root down for the potion. Amity does her best to stay on task with cutting the ingredients but ends up glancing over at Luz constantly. As the class trudges on the potions begin to take on a dark black color. "So how was Abomination Class" Luz asks to break the silence.

"Oh well we had a test on how to use the least amount of ingredients to make an abomination." Amity says as she tossed in a Duality bug

"Cool, did you do well on it?" Luz asks as she slowly stirs the pot as Amity adds in some Enth spice.

"Actually yeah, I just asked myself 'what would Luz do?' and I managed to find a formula that worked. She says as she blush and her ears slightly go down.

"Well I guess I am a good influence." She says as she puts her hand under her chin. Amity let out a laugh as she playfully punched her in the shoulder before getting a bit distracted by her cute laugh.

She watched as she adds a liquid with a pop before going back to stirring. Amity then cracks a spider egg into the potion

She take a dropper of venom and squeeze it into mixture as Luz disregards personal space like normal and reaches around her for a Sither Root.

She pops back up seemingly unfazed from the contact. Amity turns as she begins to peel the root to hid her ears moving down and the blush that covers her face.

Luz looks down to the book and then to the pot with a frown. "So Amity, since I cant do magic without glyphs can you heat up the pot?"

Amity looks to the instructions to see that they have to heat it up to a low boil but thet they shouldn't over heat it or it might become unstable. She looks to the liquid that Luz was slowly stirring and began to draw a spell circle in the air to slowly heat up the pot. After a few minutes she finds her gaze drifting back to Luz.

Amity looked at her and immediately forgot about the potion. She looked at the way the sun highlighted her brown skin, how she stuck her tongue out whenever she was concentrating. And then she looked at her lips and became entranced with the thought of one day being able to kiss them.

"...mity...amity...Amity...Amity!" She heard her partner call out as she snapped back to reality. "Ye-yeah Luz, whats wrong?" She ask as she met her gaze. Luz looked at her for a second before tuning her attention back to the bubbling potion. "Umm should it be bubbling that much Amity?" she asked as she looked with a worried expression.

They both leaned in to get a better look just in time for the potion to erupt in their faces .
