Wild magic 46

We pulled into the garage at Tim’s house, still feeling the rush from the vision we'd shared. I felt so relaxed and stress-free. I’m glad we were at his parent’s place, because I had a feeling that as good as I felt, and as close as my heart was to Tim, I might do something I could regret later.

I was already worried that I might have impregnated myself magically. I scanned, but saw no indications. Intellectually, I don’t really think sex would be a good idea. Emotionally, I was ready to find a big comfy bed and try some of that “horizontal mambo” that I’ve heard Mom and Dad talk about.

Down, girl. Damn hormones!

I let Tim open my door and I got out. I surprised him by cuddling immediately and hugging him.

“I love you so much, Tim. I’m sorry that I ever worried about your feelings for me. I hope you’ll forgive me.”

“Nope,” he said with a frown.

“No? Tim?” My heart skipped abeat in horror. I know I had disappointed him, but I really thought everything was fine, now.

“There is nothing to forgive, sweetheart. I saw your fears, and I know how worried you are, and I know you have good reason to worry. Change can always be frightening, but you need to remember, you have a lot of people who love you, and you really need to learn to talk to us when you're worried."

I smiled. “Elisabette told me the same thing. Maybe I’ve been holding things in too much.”

“There’s no maybe about that, honey. You are a born worrier, my love." Tim said as he gave me a quick kiss before we went in the house.

We’d hardly made it in the house when we were met by Tina, Tim’s mom. She gave me a big hug.

“Hi, Emily! Let me guess, you’ve come to see if you can regain your Uno crown?”

I blushed. “Well, yeah, but I’ve also got something for you and Jack. Tim says you have a problem with migraine headaches?”

“It’s one of those special things that both Jack and I share,” she scowled and laughed. “I’m sure Tim’s told you he has them, too.”

“Yes, he did, but an old relative is visiting us, and she taught me something I think you’ll enjoy.” She let me work my magic, and seconds later she began to smile.

“How long will this last, sweetheart?” She asked me.

I quickly ‘pathed a message to Elisabette, and she confirmed that the remedy was permanent.

“They’re gone for good,” I told her, but I could tell she was skeptical. I laughed. “I know, it’s hard to believe, but give it some time, you’ll see!”

She hugged me. “Thank you, sweetie! Give me a minute to grab Jack; he’s out in the workshop.”

“Oh? Where do you plan to grab him? Do you two need some “alone” time?”

She giggled, and slapped my hand lightly. “You’re bad!”

We all laughed as she went out to get Tim’s dad. When he came in, I gave him a treatment.

“Wow! That was fast and incredibly timely. I was just feeling one coming on, which is really why I was in the workshop. I didn’t want to be rude, but now it's gone! Like magic!”

I hugged him and looked quickly at Tina, who shook her head no. “You can be rude with me, if you have to!”

He smiled and blushed. “Thanks, Emily.”

I made a small curtsey. “Why yo verruh welcome, sirrah. It was mah great plesha, ah'm shure.”

Okay, I do a lousy southern belle. Gimme a break, I’m from Michigan.

We laughed and sat down, except for Tim who brought out some coffee and the teakettle, along with the Uno cards.

“Okay, question time. We need to start making plans, and I want to get together with your parents, Emily.” Jack said. “Tim graduates in a very short time, and then Emily will be a senior. I know you two said you plan to get married after Emily graduates, but how soon after? Have you two made any plans, yet?”

“Well, you already know I’ve applied at Grand Valley State, Western Michigan and Ferris State. I’ve always loved the idea of working for you, Dad, so I’ve taken all the drafting and I.T. classes that our school offers.”

“And he’s tops in the school, too! Now, me, I’ve always loved working with people. My mother’s a nurse and Grandma was a therapist, so I’m considering either nursing school, or learning to be a physical therapist. I think I could really help at either of those, but the nurses have those cute uniforms!” I giggled.

Tim smirked. “Well, you could also work with people as a domestic, and wear one of those even cuter French maid’s outfits...”

I smacked him playfully on the shoulder. “Really, Tim!”

“He’s just like his father, dear. Absolutely incorrigible.” Tina said as she drank her coffee. Jack gave her a wink, so I leaned over close to Tina, and whispered, “Bonus!”

I hope I didn’t hurt her when she suddenly started coughing. I mean, that coffee was probably still pretty hot! I had never actually seen a “spit-take” before, but it sure was messy! Fortunately everyone laughed it off!

“I know that I won’t be able to see Tim as often, but we will still get together. This could be a very long year for both of us, or, considering we want to set up the wedding, it might go very fast. I want to be careful about setting a date, though.”

“Yeah, we’re concerned that it could affect our classes.” Tim told them. “As much as we want it, school comes first. Things that aren’t date sensitive, like picking a dress, or choosing a location for the wedding, can be done without time pressure. Other things are going to need definite dates. Emily and I want to wait until after this coming Christmas, after we have an idea how school will be affected, before we set the date or do any scheduling.

“That sounds very mature of you two, and I’m very proud of you both.” Jack said. You could tell he was impressed, which kind of surprised me. I guess now was the time to drop the next bombshell.

“Umm, we’ve also decided that whatever we do, we don’t want a big, expensive wedding.” I said, and I could see that Tina was surprised. “We want it to be memorable because it was beautiful, unique and well-planned, not because it was expensive.”

“We also thought that you and Emily’s mom should be important in the planning.” Tina was surprised at Tim’s statement, so I finished it.

“I was so impressed at how you set up your house, so subtle and classy, yet very beautiful.” I told Tina. “I want that for our wedding, too.”

Tim smiled at his mom’s surprised look. “We’ve already discussed it with Jenny, Emily’s mom. She is very open to the idea, and when the time comes, she wants the two of you to get together to see what you can come up with. I hope the two of you will become friends.”

Mom had originally been thinking of a huge, expensive wedding, telling me how she knew it was the dream of every girl. I reminded her that I hadn’t been a girl all that long!

“I’ll be glad to help, of course!” Tina said.

“Good thinking, kids. I love that you’ve got the right priorities, and that you would rather go with class, rather than flash. I’m extremely impressed!”

“My relative, who is visiting with my parents, told us that fancy is for now, classy is forever, and expensive is a waste, and we took it to heart.”

“Your relative is very wise. I’d love to meet her.” Tina said, and Jack nodded.

“Oh, I can almost guarantee that you’ll meet her soon,” Tim said, as he shuffled the cards. “We’re trying to set up a small party for just a few people at Emily’s, and you’re definitely a part of who we want to be there.”

“I very much look forward to it.” Jack said.

My phone rang, and when I answered, Debbie was upset and crying so that I had a hard
time understanding her at first.

“I-I need you, Emily. M-mom’s had a heart attack(sound of her blowing her nose), and they say it’s very serious. We’re at Eastside, can you please come right away?”

Damn. I’ll bet it’s another attack. I'm gonna kick someone's ass!

“Hang on, Debbie, the reserves are on the way.”

Shitshitshitshit.
