“I thought it was a fluke!”
Turning to look at Sarah, I laughed. “He cast a spell!”
“And it worked.” She pointed toward Lucas with a jerk of her thumb and said, “Can you teach her that trick?”
“Hey!” I said as Lucas tried not to laugh.
Sarah walked over to him. “You know why you can’t say that you’re not a witch?”
Closing his eyes, Lucas nodded. “I can’t say them because I’m…”
I held my breath and waited.
“You’re?” Sarah probed.
He snapped his eyes open and nearly yelled, “Because I’m a witch!”
At that moment, Matt walked in and let out a scream that sounded like someone had stepped on a cat.
“Noooo, Lucas, no! Not you too!” He dropped his head and said, “I need a hug.”
And just like that, Sarah and I both walked up and hugged him. I jumped back as Sarah pushed Matt away.
“Stop wishing for things, jackass!” she shouted.
“I can’t help it!” Matt exclaimed.
“You know what needs to be done,” Lucas stated, and all our eyes fixed on him.
Sarah shook her head. “No.”
Clearing my throat, I replied, “I think he’s right.”
My sister spun around and glared at me. “No!”
With a nod, I looked at Matt. “You need to take him home and keep an eye on him.”
“Me!” Sarah shrieked as Matt perked up.
Attempting not to laugh, I added, “I think it’s for the best!”
Sarah pointed at Matt and said, “You be quiet! This has nothing to do with you!”
Matt’s eyes went wide.
“Take him home, Sarah. Elaine and I will gather everything we need,” Aunt Lucy said as she walked into the kitchen with my mother.
“What about me? Do you need me?” I asked.
“No!” everyone in the room shouted. Well, everyone except Matt.
I folded my arms and huffed.
My mother walked over to me while Sarah grabbed Matt and practically dragged him out of the kitchen, Lucy following behind.
“Hollie, sweetheart. Out of all of us, you’re the one with the most power behind your spells, and now that you’re pregnant, well, your spells are getting a little bumpy.”
“A little?” Lucas asked with a laugh. When I glared at him, he pressed his mouth together lightly.
