The door was answered by a very attractive young girl you recognized as Mel, John's twin sister. She was wearing a pink, strapless dress that highlighted her features very well, making her look hot. You had to fight not to drool as she looked at you with an air of impatience.
"Wow, you look sexy." you whispered, without thinking.
Mel did not look impressed. "Hello, Luke." she said, trying to be polite. "I doubt you came here to compliment and stare at me, what do you want?"
You shook your head, forcing yourself to look Mel in the eye. "I... I found a pretty antique for my girlfriend, Britney, at a garage sale a few miles from here," you said, showing her the pendant. "I was hoping John or his friend could give me a history on it." you paused, smiling at Mel's beauty. "Then again, maybe I can persuade you to dump that Harry freak and go out with a real man instead."
Mel fought her anger while, inside, her mom (Natalie) held back and silenced a furious Harry in a black tux, who had just asked Mel out earlier that day, hence the sexy dress. Only Mel was quick to recover and smiled at you. "Why, do you know where I can find a real man?"
"Very funny, Melanie." you said. "It's your loss... is John home or not?"
Mel shook her head. "He's sick right now." she told you. "I don't think he's in any mood for company."
"It'll only take a second." you promised. "May I please come in?"
Mel paused to turn to Natalie, who shook her head before whispering something to Harry, as Mel turned back to you. "Sorry, Luke." she said. "Mom told me not to let anyone disturb him." she gave you an almost evil smile. "That's a very pretty pendant, though. Bye."
With that, she slammed the door in your face. "Little bitch." you thought, walking away.
Unknown to you, Mel had a conversation with her mom after she had slammed the door. "Poor Luke doesn't realize what he has." said Mel with a giggle. "What do you think we should do?"
Natalie shook her head. "I will tell Elvira, the head witch, that Luke had purchased a magical item from Samantha." she said, seriously. "After that, it is out of our hands." she then grinned. "We will be having our hands full as it is with John, he should have known better than to try to break up a 'cat fight', least he now knows magic is real."
Little did you know that John was truly sick and irritable, being hit with a sick day spell after trying to break up a 'fight' between Hayley and Mel. As you got back into your car, you looked at the medallion, thinking. "Mel probably lied out her ass and is laughing at me right now." you thought, glumly. "Hopefully, I will catch him at school tomorrow, I can't take the risk that Brit will carry out her threat."
Staring at the medallion, you felt the sudden urge to put it on, not knowing that it was the medallion itself compelling you. It was very pretty and it did seem to match your style, again the medallion playing on your mind. "Maybe I'll just keep this and forget about Britney." you muttered. "She was a pain anyway."
