Broken Circuit The Fourth Chapter Sandra looked at the orb from Hawthorn’s arms. she spoke in a voice not her own. “Chose. Do not. Do so or all is lost. Do not or doom shall fall. Three futures shown in one day, yet only one way.” She fainted, with only Hawthorn holding her. the next day... When her mom got the word she knew an Ever boy, she told Sandra, “you can still be friends with Tessa if you like him, its not a problem!” With her mom on this side as well, she decided to talk to Hawthorn. She found him talking with another boy, George. “hey, Hawthorn, can i talk to you alone?” George blinked and grinned. He punched Hawthorn in the arm playfully. “go at her, bro!” He called over his shoulder as he walked away. Sandra took a deep breath. “i...KINDA...like you?” Hawthorn smiled at her. “hey, i like you too!” She looked at him with a withering glare. “Be warned, I’m fierce, and not exactly as princess-y as you may expect.” He smiled. “And I’m not NEARLY as night-in-shining armor as you expect.” Just then, George came up to them with Azazel. “Hi!” Azazel said sweetly. She held George’s hand and smiled a sappy smile. “Who are you, girl, and what are you doing with the famously cute..ahem, good, prince Hawthorn?” Sandra stood strainer, as if making a point. Hawthorn touched her arm, signaling her to stop. “Ah, just loving each other.” He answered. Azazel glared daggers into Sandra. “You are going DOWN” she mouthed. Sandra shifted. Hawthorn looked at her curiously, but she didn’t want to tattle. ...later, at midnight Tessa was waiting for Sandra, but she heard two people, not one. Sandra came out with Hawthorn. “What is Hawthorn doing here?” She blushed. Sandra tightened her already-white hand on Hawthorn’s. Tessa looked at her curiously. Sandra looked desperately at Hawthorn, who shifted. “Ah, Sandra wants me to tell you...we kinda made up today?” Tessa went white. “Wh-what?” She cried. “Sandra, you know I like him!” Sandra broke into tears, and Hawthorn glared at Tessa, leading San back to the tower. ‘How could she? We are—were—friends!’ She went back to her school, fuming. They didnt meet for awhile, but Tessa saw Hawthorn hanging out with Sandra. That night, she requested a meeting. Flash, flicker, flicker, flash. ‘The bay, by 12, just us.’ Sandra nodded.
