*Her outfit for the dance.*

The following day at school, Faye is at her locker trying to open it with her magic, however, it won't budge. As she sees Diana pass by she shouts at her, "What happened to my magic?" 

Turning around the girl says, "Could you be any louder?" "I can't open my locker." "Did you try the combination?" "Novel idea, Diana. Why can't I do any spells?" 

"You can. I think that now that we've bound the circle, we can only do collective magic." "Oh, you think. I never would have bound the freaking circle if it meant losing my power." 

"You didn't lose your power! According to the book, you just have to have another member of the circle present. The more you have the greater your power." "This sucks." 

"Have you forgotten that you almost killed Sally? Instead of complaining, you should be thankful that things are under control. And you better hope she doesn't remember.", finishes Diana before walking away. 

As Faye stands there in her locker pulling, and hitting the lock Sally stands not far away watching her, and as Faye walks away so does Sally.

Meanwhile, in one of the chemistry classrooms Evie and Jason are talking. As Evie fixes her books into her book back, Jason stands behind her, "Hey, are you okay? After what happened with Sally last night, I mean? You seemed pretty spooked when I dropped you off at home." "Yeah, I'm good. I was just a little jumpy." 

"Okay... then why won't you look at me?", he asks, a little worried. "Because I'm fixing my books. There you go.", she says, finishing her task at hand and turning around only to kiss him. 

He reacts by putting his hands on her hips and then holding her neck. When the bell rings they both pull away slightly panting, grab their things and make their way out of the classroom and to where they are supposed to be. 

As the bell rang, Diana came up to Cassie, "Hey, Cassie. I left you a message." "Uh, yeah, sorry. I've been busy." "Is everything All right? I was thinking we could hang out tonight. Maybe we could talk about what's been going on." "Thanks, but I can't." "What's wrong, Cassie? Did I do something?", asks Diana as they come to a stop in the middle of the hallway. 

"I did your binding ritual to get our powers under control so no one else would get hurt. That doesn't mean we all need to be friends." answers the blonde. "I know. But we can be. Or at least you and I can." "I don't like the secrets. And I don't like lying to Sally about what really happened. This whole thing-- it's-- it's too weird!" "I know. Which is why I think we should stick together." "I'm sorry, Diana. It's the way it has to be." says the blonde leaving Diana standing there. 

As Evie walks down the hallway she sees her twin standing there and she approaches her, "Hey, weirdo, what's with the face?" "Nothing, don't worry about it. You seem happy." "I am happy. Come on, let's go."

Further in the hallway, the girls see their dad and principle come out of the office together. "Hey, girls.", he greets them. 

"What are you doing here, dad?", say the twins simultaneously. "Some budget wrangling. You know I handle all the school's legal work. Do you girls need a ride home?" "No, we're good." "Okay. I'll see you at home." he walks away leaving the girls to give each other knowing smiles.
