“Now we have to promise”, she told me, ”We have to promise to never betray eachother with spells….Or words.”
Julie spit on her hand the same time that I did. Then we slapped them together and laughed.
We had both been to chicken and scared out of our wits to cut our palms and stick them together as a sign of our sisterly bond. I giggled and rolled around on the floor,as if I were stop,drop + rolling.
Then my sister and I laughed ourselves to sleep. Tomorrow was just another boring school day.

  I was at my locker.
  I always found it weird how, in every school, Julie and I ALWAYS had a locker next to eachothers.We had to move a lot, seeing as people might find the stuff that we do suspicious and that our excuses were lame.
  “Sarah!”Julie called to me from outside the bathroom.“It’s-it’s,Aunt Mathilda. She’s here again”,she panted.Ugh. Our Aunt always tried to go public with our powers simply ’cause she wanted to show everyone how great we were.
