The Musician and the Magician chapter two.

I DO OWN THIS.

Chapter two.

"Urggh!"
"It was not that bad!"
"I could feel my brain dying!"
"Maths was not that hard!"
"It was too!"
"It was not!"
"It was too!"
I laughed. "We have known each other for a grand total of three hours and we are already arguing like we've known each other since we were two!"
He laughed. "So it's lunch now?"
"Yep."
"Thank god."
"Don't say that unless you mean it."
"I'm a christian."
"Hey, me too!"
"What a small world!"
"Isn't it just!"
We were in the school courtyard now. Everyone was turning around to stare at us, (Or more correctly, Logan.) I steered him towards a bench, and we sat down.
"Do you need to buy lunch, or do you have some?" I asked.
He waved a sandwich at me. I nodded. He opened his mouth to speak when he was interrupted by a very pretty girl I had never talked to.
"Logan Hawk?" She giggled.
"That's me." He smiled.
She smiled back and took another step towards where he was sitting.(I noted that he shuffled back a bit.)
"I'm Holly, I came to say you can come sit with us you know, you don't have to stay here with...well..."
She looked snootily at me before turning back to to Logan and fluttering her eyelashes flirtatiously at him. I looked quietly at my hands.
"No thanks."
I looked up, suprised. Logan was frowning at Holly. "I'm fine here."
Holly looked shocked. "Oh. Well, that offer still stands if you change your mind-"
"I don't think I will."
Her suprised expression turned into a glare, (directecd mainly at me.) "Fine."
She tossed her hair and flounced away from us. Logan looked at me. "Well. She seemed nice."
I started giggling and couldn't stop. Logan started laughing with me and we couldn't stop for about three minutes. The bell rang again.
Logan stopped chuckling and groaned. I laughed. "Come on!"
"Please no!"
"Be brave."
"I'm beyond bravery, please don't make me go back in those class rooms!"
"If you're a big boy I'll let you have a pony ride later!"
"Well, if a pony ride is on offer..."

"You cannot tell me you have never seen Stardust!"
"Fine, I won't tell you."
I rolled my eyes at Logan and gave him a small shove. I stopped walking.
"This is my house."
"Okay."
I looked at him. He didn't move.
"Sooo."
"Sooo."
I looked up at him ( he was a good foot taller than me.) He looked back at me. It was a week since we had met now.
I bit my lip. "Would you like to come in?"
"Ahhhh I have earned your trust."
"Against my better judgement."
He grinned. "I'd love to come in."
"Okay." I walked towards the door and unlocked it. "Just wait there for a second."
"Um, okay." He said, looking rather confused. "Just. Stay there."
I smiled at him and got inside. As soon as we were seperated by the door, I started sprinting. "MUM!" I hissed as I reached the kitchen. "Yes sweetie?" She mumbled, using her wand to turn the page of her cookbook, while chopping carrots.
"Where's Dak and Dani?"
"Their rooms I excpect."
"DAK! DANI!"
My sisters came stomping down the stairs. "What?" Dani squealed. "You're interupting my study." Dak stared at her incredulously. "Study? You're doing your makeup!"
"Doesn't mean it isn't important!"
I stared at them with my mouth open. "Guys! I just screamed for you and you're standing there arguing!" My Mum put her hands on her hips. "Shush girls. What is it Darcy?"
I sighed. "Okay. I have a-a friend over, and well, he's not magic and-"
"He?" Dani raised her eyebrow.
"Shut up Dani. Anyway, he can't know we're wizards and-"
"Enough said." Mum said, whipping off her apron. "Girls, hurry and clean up. Hide your wands, your spell books, and everything else magic related, now go, go go!"
"Sorry about that." I said, joining Logan outside the front door. "I knew the house was a bit messy, and that my Mum would want to give it a quick clean up."
He smiled. "That's okay. You should see how messy our house is, having just moved and everything, you can't even find the beds!"
I grinned at him. "Well I think you can come in now, just let me check-"
I stuck my head inside the door and mouthed to Mum. "Are you done yet?" She nodded yes.
"Okay!" I smiled at Logan. "Come in!"
We walked inside where my mother was waiting for us.
"Mum, this is Logan, Logan this is my mother."
"It's very nice to meet you Mrs. Lucas." Logan said shaking her hand.
"Please call me Leah dear." Mum said, with a knowing smile on her face. "Oh, yes. Darcy, you have good taste." Logan coughed to disguise a laugh, I glared at my Mum and mouthed "You are so dead!"
Dak came running down the stairs. "Oh, hello." She said, feining suprise. She looked at Logan. "Darc, who is your handsome gentleman friend?"
I gave her a look of annoyance before saying, "Dak, Logan, Logan, Dakota."
Logan raised his eyebrows. "Dakota? That's an unusual name."
"Yes, Mum and Dad were cruel to their first child."
Logan laughed. (Have I mentioned how nice his laugh is?) "So Darcy, I think you said that you have one more sister?"
I nodded. "Yeah, wait, Dani!" I called. Dani came stomping down the stairs, "Yes Dar-."
She stopped, seeing Logan. Her mouth dropped open. "But- you're..you're...you're Logan Hawk!" He chuckled. "Yes, yes I am."
She looked at him in shock. I grinned. "Dani, this is Logan, as you have pointed out, Logan, this is my seventeen year old sister Daniella."
She was still gaping at him. Mum looked at Logan. "So Logan, how does Dani know who you are?"
"I'm a musician." He said, his hands behind his back.
"How interesting!" Mum nodded. Dak sighed. "Ahhhhh that's where I've seen you before! Yeah, you're okay."
He looked suprised. "Well, thankyou."
"You're welcome."
"Okaayyy, anyway, Logan, do you want to go outside and hang out?" I suggested.
He turned to me. "Yeah, that would be cool. Nice too meet you Dani, Dakota-"
"Dak."
"-Dak and Mrs. Lucas-"
"Leah."
"Leah. So, anyway nice to meet you all."
Me and Logan turned around, and I directed him to the back door.
