Seven

A week later, Sam, Madison’s best friend, is standing in my doorway.

Neither my mood nor my relationship with Madison have improved since meeting with my mother. After shouldering a guy because he asked Madison if she was in line for coffee, intentionally causing him to spill the hot liquid all over his torso, I finally admitted defeat. I’ve always lived by the coven’s motto of “do no harm” and now I’m burning an innocent man with scalding liquid. I’ve gone medieval.

I’m a menace. Unless I want to lose Madison, I need to get my shit together. No matter how much I focus on controlling my feelings, I end up creating a scene. At first, I believed she liked my passion and inability to be close without pawing her. But being a spectacle and the subject of campus gossip isn’t what either of us wants. We’re both miserable and end up bickering or feeling awkward around each other. Not exactly the beginning I’d been waiting all these years to have with her.

“Can I talk to you about Madison’s birthday party?” Sam asks over the angry death metal blasting through my Bluetooth speaker.

Resisting a snarky can you, I close my laptop, turn down the music, and gesture for her to enter. Apparently my jealousy over anyone close to Madison now extends to her friends. “Sure.”

She enters the room and perches on the edge of my bed. I should offer her my desk chair, but I’m currently sitting in it and don’t feel like getting up.

“I’m know things haven’t been exactly smooth between the two of you lately.”

I nod. “Understatement.”

“I’m sure it’ll all get sorted out soon enough. I mean, I have faith in your mother and Madison.”

“But not me?”

“You’re the cursed one.”

“Did Madison tell you that?” What I’m thinking is a lot more rude and sounds a lot like fuck you. My anger begins to simmer.

“She hasn’t said those words, but something’s up with you. Given your mother owns the magic shop, I came to my own conclusion.” Her eyes dart nervously in my direction.

“This is temporary.”

“How can you be sure?”

She’s right. I can’t. I never assumed whatever personality switch has taken over would ever be permanent. Without waiting for my response, she continues.

“If it helps, I’m really sorry. I know how much Madison likes you and it’s clear that you like her. Maybe someone wants to keep you apart.”

“I see you believe the same theory as my mother.”

“I’ve used that same love spell on Tate. They clearly don’t work.”

I resist spilling that the crush is mutual. I’m the last person who should meddle with the hearts of others. “Some people think we’ve switched personalities. Or our personalities have switched bodies. Something like that.”

“Like 17 Again?”

“Something like that.” I rub my hand over my jaw. I haven’t bothered to shave all week. What’s the point if all I do is run, go to class, and lock myself away in my dorm room like it’s a tower? “What can I do for you?”

“I’m planning a surprise party for Madison for Saturday and I think you should be there.
