The two female secretaries watched our little interaction and when their eyes landed on us as we got close, both of them blushed like we were celebrities of some sort.
Ugh, great. We're even having an effect on these ladies. They're like as old as my mom. Oh that just sounds weird.
“I—I…Identification... please,” the blonde woman asked, stuttering over the two words.
Logan and I exchanged a look before pulling out our wallets, and taking our IDs out.
Thankfully, Ms. Landsford had hooked me up with a male identification and documents to go with it. I didn't know what connections she had, but to get all my documents and application sorted in only a short few days was amazing in itself.
"Thank you,” the other brown haired female said, giving us back our identifications.
"Step up to that magic scanner. Simply place your hand on the scanning device and the machine will create a temporary wand for you to use for the test."
We nodded and Logan walked up first to the white scanner.
I noticed the people in line peering through the glass, trying to get a glimpse of Logan's results. I fought a sigh, already exhausted with this place and school hadn't even begun yet.
Logan placed his hand on the device and it beeped. Logan's name appeared on the screen before a loading magic circle began spinning on the screen.
After a minute, another beep sounded off and a bright gold wand materialized.
A few people gasped and others began to whisper, but Logan seemed unbothered by the commotion. He picked the wand up and walked back to me, sliding the thing in his pocket like it wasn't a big deal.
I didn't hesitate, walking straight up to the machine and laying my large hand on the scanner.
It beeped again and I felt the heat of the light scan my hand slowly. The magic circle appeared again as it loaded my results. I tried to ignore the looks I was getting through the glass.
I didn't know that boys could be just as nosey as girls.
Maybe it was the whole "ranking" thing that was hyping everyone up.
The machine beeped and a bright red wand appeared.
The gasps multiplied as I picked it up, but I didn't spend my time staring at the smooth wood, only getting a glimpse of the gold flowers that decorated the top half of the wand before I shoved it into my back pocket and returned to where Logan stood.
His expression was blank but his eyes told me I'd done something to catch people's attention. He nodded to me, a signal meaning he'd explain when half the student body wasn’t watching our every move.
"Perfect. Please go down that hall and you will be paired with one more person. The test is three against three,” the blonde woman explained.
We nodded and put our hands in our pockets before we turned and walked down the hall she had indicated. As we followed the signs towards the larger waiting area, I took a calming breath. Logan paused, looking back to see if anyone was following.
When no one appeared, he turned back to look at me.
"That was annoying,” he grumbled, pulling his hand out of his pocket.
"I agree. Pain in the ass. I'm already tired," I mumbled.
He smiled and reached out to ruffle my hair. I figure it was his way to comfort me, seeing as he couldn't brush my cheek or kiss me like he would when I was a girl.
"Your magic holding up?" he inquired.
"Yup. No issue there. I'm just tired of all the sudden attention. I don't get why they were so hyped up over the wands. Not to mention that kid was irritating. Don't challenge someone if you can't fight back," I growled.
Logan chuckled.
"Your feisty side wasn't left behind with the switch, huh?" Logan commented.
We began walking again but at a slower pace.
