He looked completely exhausted.

I had to blink out of my fog before I closed my eyes and encouraged the switch back to Jinn.

It was quick, almost effortless with my renewed energy.

When I opened my eyes, Brax had a wide smile on his lips.

"Good girl,” he whispered

I glanced away, blushing.

"I'm a guy now, remember?"

I took a hesitant look back at him and he did something unexpected, giving me one final kiss on my manly lips.

I almost forgot to breathe and was so surprised. He pulled back just as we heard the change room doors open and chatter filter in.

"I remember vividly, Jinn,” Braxton teased, grabbing our sponges and body wash and striding away to grab his towel.

I fumbled to close the tap and then followed him to the holders. We quickly dried off and wrapped the towels around our waists. Brax was ready to leave when I stopped him, putting my hand on his shoulder.

I didn't think, letting my body take control as I leaned up and pressed my lips lightly on his.

His eyes grew wide at my sudden gesture and I stared into them for a few seconds before pulling away .

"That was for teasing," I whispered, giving him a seductive smile as I licked my lips.

I moved away from his frozen body and headed for the clear door that was fogged up from the steam of our shower.

When I reached it, I turned slightly to look back at his shocked expression as he glanced my way.

"Thanks, Brax." I smiled before pushing opened the door, leaving a blushing Brax alone in the showers.

I loved Brax's confidence, but I felt really proud to have shown him a bolder side of me and felt better than ever after doing so.

Maybe being a guy had some perks after all.

LACK OF POWER

"Your partners have been chosen. Get ready in your designated rooms. A few students from each class will be watching your performance, so if you want to look cool around your peers, now is your chance," Ms. Landsford announced.

I sighed, ruffling my hair as I stared at my card.

We were entering our third week of classes and I was starting to feel the pressure of it all.

Nixon and Logan had noticed how weak I'd started to get by the end of each day and decided to encourage me to take weekends off, forbidding me from using magic unless it was necessary.

Our break was fast approaching so I knew once we had a week off, I'd be able to recharge and feel more refreshed for the second half of our semester.

I was partnered up with Zane today and Maximus was staying on the sidelines to watch our battle with Eric and Andrew.

Nick was over on the sidelines, smiling confidently like he assumed they would win.

I looked at Zane who seemed to be pretty nervous for this test.

It was 40% of our grade and I stressed that we couldn't do poorly on it.

We were representing our team which meant if we did poorly, it affected him, myself, as well as Maximus.
