and finish quickly. Time to take Amber to the holistic therapy shop to get her some sage and a crystal for her cards; I would give her mine if it would work for her but Ambers would tune only into her own personal energy for the remained of her life.
    “Ok boys and girls, it is time to go to Gail’s holistic therapy centre and get you some supplies Amber.” I say. She nods her head and stands up. Caleb follows and goes ahead to pick up his car. Amber watches him walk away and by the slight tilt of her head it isn’t hard to figure out where exactly she is looking. This is going to be a fun trip I think to myself.

    I watch Caleb walk away, or should I say I watch his ass walk away! Laughter coming from Aunt Betsy has me hastily straitening up and turning around. I blush as I realise she had seen me checking Caleb out.
    “Like what you see Amber?” She asks coyly. I do not trust that look in her eyes and try to feign indifference.
    “Not bad. I have seen better elsewhere.” I say.
    “Oh really?” she asks with a smirk.
    “Yes!” I reply “In fact there was a guy at my last exam that was pretty hot. Who knows maybe something will happen with him? There were defiantly vibes going between us.” I say with a smug smile. Aunt Betsy’s smile fades a little before she answers.
    “Ok, well I guess Caleb should go on that date he was telling me about. I will be good for him to get out and meet a nice girl that when the spell is broken he can settle down with.” She says this nonchalantly and I frown, funnily her comment about another woman does not sit well with me. Aunt Betsy walks towards the side of the road just as Caleb pulls up to the side. He looks at me and all I can think of is him with someone else so I shoot daggers at him while stomping towards the car door. Aunt Betsy gets into the front with Caleb so I pull open the back door and see Caleb’s eyes widen with weary shock. I look directly at him in the review mirror when I slam his precious car door and watch him cringe. I feel a small feeling of satisfaction when he turns his eyes to the front and begins to drive, but then I feel shame. I feel shame that I took out my jealousy and frustrations, with myself, out on him and his beloved car. All men love their cars it’s like their one true love or something. I slouch into the leather and let the regret at my actions consume my thoughts. After a lengthy discussion with myself at how wrong it was to take my feelings out on Caleb, my traitorous mind starts to go in a different direction, one involving Caleb and the reason for my jealousy. Any girl who has had a crush on a guy but didn’t know until it completely bashed them on the side of the head with that huge neon HELLO sign, thankfully you will understand what I am going through. Those of you that don’t, well I don’t think I should talk to you anytime soon!
    It is as we stop outside the holistic therapy centre that I make up my mind to apologize to Caleb and keep my feelings to myself. He is after all a nice piece of eye candy to look at and if I told him I think I fancy the pants off him, well I don’t think his high tech car could take him away in the opposite direction fast enough!
    Aunt Betsy and Caleb get out the car first so I hang back a little hoping Aunt Betsy will go ahead into the centre, leaving me alone with Caleb long enough for me to apologize to him for my behaviour earlier. She does not disappoint and quickly disappears into the building. Caleb locks the car from his side and quickly moves around to the sidewalk. He keeps his eyes averted from mine while making his way to the front door.
    I decide it’s now or never and call to him.
    “Caleb!” I whisper loudly. He turns to look at me with apprehension in his eyes which I cannot blame him really as he has done nothing wrong and I almost broke his car. I walk towards him until I am just a couple steps out of reach.
    “I wanted to apologize for my behaviour earlier. I
