Enchanters

Chapter 10: Eric

It wasn't long until Christmas break, me and Emilia still hadn't had our first date yet which kind of sucked, but what are you gonna do? It still wasn't Christmas break yet it was the last day of school. Me and Emilia have been "dating" for about 2 weeks and my best friends still didn't know and neither did hers. I was going to give her my Christmas gift today. I didn't know how she would react to it, it was a bracelet, with a black flower and diamond shaped like a heart it the middle of the flower. She will probley yell at me saying "why did you pay so much money on me and blah, blah, blah" I hated how she thought she never deserved something pretty.

When I was making my way to Emilia, my best friend Mark blocked my way.

"Where are you going with that?" Mark asked while pointing to the box I had wrapped in snowflake wrapping paper.

"I'm just going to ah," there's nothing I could do I had to tell him the truth. "I was going to give this to Emilia."

"Why?" Mark asked.

"Ok but if I tell you, you have to promise that you won't tell anyone." I said.

"Ok?" Mark had one eyebrow up, that's not good, it means he's paying full attention.

"I'm dating Emilia." I told him, and as I did his mouth dropped and his eyes went wide.

"What? Why didn't you tell me?" Mark asked.

"Emilia didn't want everyone to know, she wanted to keep it secret." I explained to him.

"Ok, well at least I know now, does anyone else know?" He asked.

"No, not that we know of." I said.

"So no one knows but me," Mark said

"Yes," He was really getting on my nerves.

When I got to Emilia to give her the gift, I realized that I wasn't alone. I looked behind me to see Mark.

"What are you doing?" I asked.

"I'm coming to interview your girlfriend to see if she's good enough." Mark answered.

"If anything I'm not good enough for her." I replied, "And anyways you knew her all your life."

"Yes I have and you're right you're not good enough," he said

"Gee thanks" I said. I knew he was kidding about everything.

When I went up to Emilia, when I did Mark backed off. Emilia was talking to her friends.

"Hey Emilia, can I talk to you?" I asked, Emilia just smiled and nodded. Her friends were laughing in the background.

"Hey, want do you want to talk about?" she asked.

"Well I didn't really want to talk, I just wanted to give you this." I said as I gave her the box.

"It's beautiful," It was weird because she hadn't even opened the box yet.

"You don't know what's in it." I was giving her a weird look.

"Oh I do, just like how I know that you told Mark, and also that you want to ask me something." She was smart, and sneaky.

"I did not tell him he got it out of me!"

"mmmmmmmm sure he did." She started laughing.

"Hey what you guys talking about." Mark came up and asked.

"Hey Mark," Emilia said.

"Hey so you guys are dating," He was annoying.

"I think you already know that answer." She said while giving me an evil glare.

"Oh no, please don't, no," Emilia was muttering.

"What's wrong honey?" I asked.

"First you called me honey, second Max is coming," Emilia was starting to get tense, was her brother really that over protective?

"Hey Emilia, Mark, Eric," When he said Eric, he got tense and his hands turned into fists.

"You didn't tell him yet," Me and Mark said at the exact same time.

"SHHHHHH," Emilia got really mad when we said that.

"Tell me what?" Max asked, Emilia slapped her hand against her for head.

"I really hate you people," Emilia hissed at us. She was never like this before, but Max grabbed her and she went right back into a smile. Could he also be a Enchanter?

"Oh you don't hate Eric," Mark said, ignoring that she was already getting really mad.

"Emilia, want do you have to tell me, and what does he mean by you don't hate Eric," Even though Max was talking to Emilia he was giving me an evil glare.

"Um, Max, Me and Eric are dating," After she told him the truth, she closed her eyes and Max went red.

"Can I talk to you for a minute, young lady?" Max asked Emilia.

Emilia just nodded and went with him, but even when they were walking away from me and Mark Max was still giving me a death glare.

"I'm sorry I didn't know he would take it like that," Mark said.

"That's ok, I knew, and I have a feeling so did Emilia."
