"Good," Madison said, letting a tiny smile slip. Adam beamed even more widely, and Madison turned away from it before he did something stupid like say he believed Adam and why didn't they just skip right to dinner on Friday? "We need to do the spell. I don't want to be out here tomorrow because we missed the window for casting."

"Right, of course," Adam said, falling into step beside Madison as he headed towards the circle. "Thank you for doing this, really. I don't know what I would have done if—"

"Adam," Madison said, cutting him off. "We've been over this. You don't have to thank me. I would have done it for anyone." Adam's face fell slightly, and Madison hesitated, but in the end couldn't keep his mouth shut. "Look, if it turns out you're telling the truth, you can thank me with dinner. That's more than enough. Now get in your spot and shut up."

Adam laughed, brightening, apparently not at all put off by Madison's bossiness. That was good— Madison was bossy a lot, and if Adam couldn't put up with it… and now Madison was thinking long- term, and he really needed not to do that. At least, not until after he talked with Lydia again. Shaking his head, Madison followed Adam to the center of the spell circle.

Adam took his place in the topmost triangle carved within the innermost circle, while Madison put one foot in each of the remaining two triangles, then held out his hands. He ignored the thrill he felt when Adam took his hands and instead looked up to study the position of the sun.

"Good?" Madison asked. Adam nodded, squeezing his hands. Madison ignored that, shutting his eyes so he could concentrate. Calling up the energy that always burned, bright and steady at the back of his mind, Madison let it course through his veins. Holding it for a moment, Madison simply reveled in the feel of his magical energy, taking slow, deep breaths before feeling out the lines of the spell circle.

Once he could feel the lines of the circle, Madison shoved, pushing all of his energy into the spell circle. Brilliant green flames spun out along the lines of the spell circle, flaring high above Madison's head. Madison didn't feel their heat—he never did—and he smiled to see them, even as the flames immediately began to die down.

He was gripping Adam's hands too tightly, Madison realized, and he forced his hands to relax. Madison frowned, wondering if the spell had worked. There was no way to tell from his end of it. He had successfully fed all his energy into the circle, though, and that was a good sign. If the spell circle had been incomplete, the energy would have ricocheted back around to find him again.

That would have hurt more than being drained would, and Madison hoped the after effects waited a few more minutes before kicking in. He felt oddly hollow, but that was normal. He'd only drained himself
