Thanks for the comment Connie! Haha, I don't know, we'll see.

Within ten minutes, Coralie and Jaxon were standing on the edge of a lush, green yard. A dirt and gravel pathway led to a small cottage near the back of the property, which was hiding behind some trees and bushes. A grayish column of smoke was coming from the chimney.
“It’s so nice.” Coralie commented. She adjusted her grip on the satchel in her right hand, and with her left, she pushed a strand of brown behind her ear. Jaxon glanced sideways at the girl, watching her expression.
“Come on, then.” he said, smiling. Jaxon grabbed her hand, pulling her along the path and up to the small house.
He knocked on the front door, and after a few minutes, it finally opened. A young witch stood in the doorway. She wiped her hands on the apron around her waist, then said “Hi Jaxon.”
“Hey Sage.” he replied. “Where’s Reyes?”
The witch looked back into the house, curly brown hair bouncing off her shoulders.
“He’s here.” She smiled. Sage pushed the door open further, and let the two enter.
“You,” She said to the girl, “Must be Coralie.”
She nodded and Sage took her hand. “It’s nice to meet you.”
“You too.” she said quietly.
Jaxon had left her side, to find Reyes, who had apparently been in the family room, reading. He reappeared moments later with the man by his side.
“How are you Coralie?” Reyes asked pleasantly.
“Ok.” she replied.
Sage took the satchel from her. “Will you go check on the stove for me?” she said to her husband. “I want to show Coralie around.”
“Of course.” he said. “Jaxon are you staying for dinner?”
The teenager looked at Coralie, and she nodded slightly, maybe even desperately.
“Yes.” he replied, trying to hide the edge of a smile.
Sage smiled again. Reyes and Jaxon disappeared into the kitchen, already deep in conversation.
Coralie looked at the witch expectantly, waiting to see what she would do.
“This way.” she said finally, gesturing towards a small hallway.
She showed her Reyes and her’s bedroom, which consisted of a large bed, two nightstands, a dresser and a mirror. The walls were painted a light shade of brown, and the wood floor was sparkling.
“Your room will be here.” Sage said, opening a door across the hallway. “It’s not big, but it’s cozy.”
The oak door belonged to a small guest bedroom. The walls were a white-grey and all of the furniture had a matching wrought iron them to it. Sage placed the satchel down on the dark purple bedspread.
“The bathroom’s right next door. There are towels you can use, just hang them up when you’re done. If you need anything don’t be afraid to shout.” With that, Sage left her by herself.
Coralie ran her hand over the footboard of the bed. Glancing around, she noticed that the room was filled with all sorts of things; Family pictures hung on the walls and sat on the dresser. A couple of books were placed on the nightstand, along with a small lamp, a glass for water, and a vase of flowers. The place had a homey feel to it. And Coralie liked that.


While Reyes turned down the stove, Jaxon began rambling on about the day’s events.
“What’s going to happen?” he asked. “Are you going to search for Christopher and Carson?”
“You asked me this already.” Reyes said. He shook his black-brown hair out of his eyes as he spoke. “Of course. We aren’t just going to let this go.”
“Do you think she’ll be alright here?” he spoke more quietly.
Reyes looked up from the potatoes in the pot on the stove.
“She’ll be fine here.” he said, kind of quizzically.
“With the sudden change?”
“She’ll be fine.” he repeated, a peal of laughter echoing in his voice.


Hmmmm. Can I leave it at that??
