Chapter Twelve

When I enter the changing room, I’m relieved to see that Ciara is still there. There’s only one other girl with her, and, fortunately enough, it’s not Chloe.

“Hey,” I say to Ciara. “I really need to talk to you.” The other girl snickers as if she actually knows what I want to talk about.

“I don’t really have time right now,” Ciara says, zipping her bag. “Maybe we can talk later?” Always so polite, but I am pretty sure that later will never come.

“Actually, no, we need to talk right now.” I block her way and the other girl stands next to Ciara like a bodyguard. Really? “In private,” I add.

The other girl snickers again. “Like that’s going to happen.”

“It’s okay, Jen,” Ciara says. “See you tomorrow?”

Jen gives me the stink eye, but doesn’t say anything and leaves, even though she doesn’t miss an opportunity to bump into my shoulder on her way out. What’s her deal?

When the sound of Jen’s footsteps disappears in the hallway, Ciara says, “I have already told you everything I know, which is nothing when it comes to witchlights.”

“If that’s true, then why are you avoiding Jessie every time she tries to talk to you?” I ask.

“Because she just won’t leave me alone, and I need to focus on other things right now.” Ciara slings her bag over her shoulder, ready to leave. Not so fast.

“Like cheerleading?” I ask.

“We have a very important game tomorrow. Maybe you’ve heard something about it.” I might have, but that’s not the point.

“Game or no game, you have to help us figure out how to make a witchlight. I have an actual demon living in my bedroom, and it’s at least partially your fault.”

“My fault? I’m out of three demon tears, which, for your information, are extremely valuable, not to mention my Mirror of Edana is broken. It means that I won’t be able to get in touch with my aunt until she comes back to Mystic Hollow, which might not happen for a while. I think you’re the one to blame for all of this, Emmy, and you should fix your own mess.”

My jaw drops. Seriously? Did those words really come out of her mouth? If it wasn’t for Ciara, who invited herself to our sleepover and conducted her weird magic ritual, none of this would have happened.

“Now let me through. It’s going to rain soon and I don’t feel like getting wet and catching a cold before the game.”

“So you can predict the weather now?”

Ciara rolls her eyes. “I can watch a weather report, like any normal person.” She tries to walk past me, but I block her way. “Listen, Emmy, I don’t know what you’re trying to achieve here, but it won’t work. I already told you everything I know. There’s nothing else I can help you with, so why don’t you move aside or I’ll have to move you.”

My eyebrows shoot upwards. “Are you actually threatening me?”

“I’m not threatening anyone,” Ciara says, irritated. “But I’m also not getting caught up in whatever it is you’re doing.
