Rowan Louise. You may call me, Michael. I'm your Angel." I closed my eyes as he bent down again, the pain numbing, "Michael..."
I turned, Michael sitting beside me, I whispered, "Michael...!" I grabbed his shoulders and with my heart still open, I sobbed as I pulled him against me. He held me, stroking my hair like when I was a child. When I thought someone was touching my hair, but when I looked, no one was there. But I remember before then he did that, too.
Michael sat there, rubbing my shoulders as I cried. We sat like that for a long time. When I was done, he kissed my forehead and the crying stopped. His eyes were as blue as the sky and his hair as fine as the clouds of dawn. Before now, before I remembered him, I never knew I had missed him so much. I hugged him tightly as he got up from the piano bench and sat me on his lap. He told me, "Tell me everything, little one." His eyes were kind, and without looking away from me, he played the piano, a beautiful tune, too low for any Angel.
So while he played that lullaby, I told him. How I felt, how I was still remembering, why I didn't cry. Everything. So I didnt even notice we were in front of the Girls Door, until he smoothed my hair, and patted my cheek. I blinked and he kissed me. It was like I was in a daze. But when I opened my eyes, I felt better, and Michael looked at me. I nodded. "Thank you, Angel." I said, my voice soft. He nodded, too. Slowly, he took my hand and walked me to Room 315. "I'll be there, just call on me." he said, his voice gentle. I curtsied, than blushed when I did. I was getting Princess Instincts. Lovely . He chuckled and bowed, kissing my hand at the same time. My heart stuttered. Michael smiled, and let go, dissapearing.
I walked into the room, smiling when Hana looked up. She rushed to me, crying. I hugged her and called out, aware of the spies. "You can come on out Lupin. I'm not gonna smack you. Yet..." I smiled when he came out of the cabinet, giving a Come here look. He looked startled but came over. "Group hug!" I laughed, reaching out for him. He started laughing, and tried to get away when Han joined in and we tackled him. It seemed our friendship got bigger. We were laughing when I caught a movement out of the corner of my eye. Witch senses ,you gotta love 'em...I shook my head. "Tristian, you join in too!" I called out. I stared him straight in the eye, daring with my eyes to walk away. "Get 'im!" Lu growled. I laughed, tickling him, and patted his shoulder, looking at Tristian's scared face. "You can go to, Han."I encouraged her. She smiled, and leaned into a crouch.
"Wait!" I said. They were practically half out the door. I smiled at Tristian."Thanks, I needed him. Next time though, don't butt in with my mind or my memories." He looked at me in shock, eyes purple and green. They changed to green though, thankfully Molly and Ella went shopping. I picked up the bat beside my bed, a present from Lewie, mentally. I said in a mock angry voice,"Get 'im boy-os!" the bat swung in the air, pointed at Tristian. "Gee, your welcome!" I heard him shout down the hall as the bat, Lu and Han chased him. I heard bell-like laughter from the hall below, including the shouts as Tristian ran.
Smiling, I picked up Loki and went to the coffee pot we all shared to make cocoa. He meowed at me, his beautiful green eyes staring lovingly into mine. I nuzzled his soft cheek, giving him a kiss. Sighing happily with my kitty and cocoa, I burried myself under the covers, window open and TV put on to watch Spongebob. My day turned from sadly shoking to awesome bright. Things couldn't get any better, even for a witch like me.
Going My Way

When Lu and Han showed up an hour later, sweaty and smiling, I knew they had fun. I smiled, forgetting I was a witch, imagining Tristian covered in bruises. The thought cheered me up instantly. Ella and Molly had met up with them earlier, to give them a bag of candy. It was chocolate, caramel, and butterscotch mixed. Spongebob was still on, so Lupin plopped down on the floor while Hana layed down next to me on the bed. We laughed ourselves silly, and when Hana gave me a caramel, I smiled. "Candy makes people happy. If you put it in your mouth, and savor its sweetness, a blossom will bloom." Lupin stared at us, his mouth hanging open as he was about to pop a butterscotch on his tounge. Those words reminded me of when I knew them before.
The princess hid behind a tree, crying for being scolded again. Nearby, a girl who worked in the palace, the same age as the young princess, heard her from the shore. She ran to Her Majesty, a smile on her lips. Her hair was cropped an inch below her ears, and her petite face was kind. She offered the crying girl her hand, and the princess looked up. The strange girl placed a sweet in her palm and told her. "Candy makes people happy. If you but it in your mouth, and savor its sweetness, a blossom will bloom. Thats what Maman says." Young Princess Rowan took the candy, and with a smile brighter than the castle's best polished dish, she said, "Thank you! If it does bloom, let's be friends, okay?" And she threw the candy in her mouth, and sucked. A sweet sensation bloomed on her tounge, and her smile was brilliant. The strange kind girl held out her hand to the Princess, "I'm Hana. You still want to be friends?" "Yes! I hope we can stay friends forever! I like you! I'm Rowan, but call me Row." The two new friends ran off, hand in hand, talking about candy and things to do with each other.
I nodded, smiling. I reached out for her hand and squeezed it tight. "Yum. Sweet." I said around the candy. That couldn't not make them laugh. They were happy to see me happy, I knew that much. But, I wanted to enjoy this moment, so I turned to Spongebob. Hmmmm....
"Ah! What time is it!? I got to go!" I scrambled from the bed, taking Hana with me. "Lupin, come with us! We have to get papers today!" I started to throw on flip-flops. Sneakered feet at the door stopped me. A boy with curly blonde hair was holding a folder in one hand and package in the other. "Rowan Walker?" he asked shyly, eyes wide at the look of my apperance and company.
"Um, yea, can I help you? I was just on the way out to get paperwork and mail..." I was staring at the look on his face and realized I hadn't been exactly polite. And that I was the world's most clueless freshman in the history of O Dea. "That's mine...isn't it...?" I asked politely, pointing at the stuff he held.
He seemed a little dazed, looking intently at my face. I cleared my throat, trying not to be rude. The boy shook his head and smiled, "Yeah, this is for you, Rowan." He handed me the papers and package, which I tossed onto the desk nearby. "Do I need to sign paperwork... Mister...?" I could tell he needed some help.
"Sorry, the names Allen. I'm the newspaper kid." He held out his hand. I shook it, pointing to Lupin and Hana. "These are my siblings, Hana and Lupin." He nodded at Hana and shook hands with Lupin, too. "Sorry, gotta run. Gotta deliver." Allen ran down the hall. I shut the door.
My 'siblings' looked at me, and I stared with a poker face right back at them. We started cracking up. It was just too funny. I was just ready to run out for something and I was an utter mess. I tackled them, making us laugh harder saying, "Quit laughing at me! I will not hold back on tickling you!" They stopped laughing, looking at me with concern. I glared at them with raised, ready fingers. What happened next, I didn't see coming. Lu wrapped his arms around my forearms and held me back. Hana started tickling my stomache. I cried so hard as I laughed, yet I managed to tickle Hana's socked feet with my bare toes and start pinching Lupin's sides.
By the time I was through with them, there were tears on our red faces and I was lying on top of both of them. We had a group hug. "I love you two. I thought I was gonna die there for a second, thanks to you, Lupin!" Han punched him while I pinched his cheek.
He had us in his control, in headlocks, while he ate popcorn and watched Scooby-Doo. We weren't to old for cartoons! At least, I wasn't, Lu and Han never watched cartoons or so they said. They were too busy looking for me,'cause they also slept as long as I had when I died. They wouldn't leave me. But, we were still watching cartoons when an hour an a half later, Tristian walked in with Ella and Molly. I was still awake unlike the two couch potatoes beside me. When they opened the door, I gave them the quiet singal. They waved hi except for Tristian, who held my bat. Good, I'll need it later.
I rolled away silently from them, careful not to touch their sleeping bodies, I got off the bed. Walking to the door I turned to my roomies, "I'll be back soon." I whispered. They nodded already getting ready for bed. Once I was out in the hallway, I checked my watch, it read 6:47. I had enough time to take a dip in the pond and get supper before curfew. Footsteps were behind me, and I knew they were Tristian's. His aura unnerved me. I turned around. He stopped, and was turning around when I said, "Don't follow me. If you need to talk to me, I'll be back by quarter of seven, in the cafe, okay?" His head bobbed as a reply. I nodded back.
Once under the doors, I ran to the courtyard. I was too quick for everyone. Entering the hedge, a sigh was the only sound I made. Taking off my outfit, my bathing suit was wrapped around my body, revealing flashes of now yellow bruises. The water looked so inviting I didn't put up my hair, didn't check the temperature. I just dove right in, and when my body was enveloped into it, all of my worries from the last few days, slipped away, like before.
The water
