    Camp Cauldron (A Short Story)

    By Juli Alexander

    Chapter One

    My phone vibrated and I hit Ignore for the fifth time. I wasn't ready to talk to Sophie after the stunt she'd pulled. Turning back to the television, I tried to convince myself I was watching the show. If I'd known she'd be so stupid, I would have taken out that dusty cauldron and unused potion book and learned how to brew a common sense potion.

    Mom had been on the land line for twenty minutes. Finally, I heard her hang up, and she stepped into the family room to check on me.

    Emma, I talked to Sarah.

    Sophie and I were finally old enough to have a modicum of freedom when her mother took us to the beach for the week. I had been looking forward to this for months! My first Spring Break trip in high school. Mom, this stinks! I'm already packed!

    With a frown, Mom said, I noticed, and I'm pretty sure you would have needed some of that underwear before your trip.

    Mother!

    I am sorry, Emma. I wish we could take you somewhere, but your father and I both have to work.

    I need a new best friend. Sophie and I had grown up together. Our families were magic, and there weren't a whole lot of witches in Athens, Georgia. At least, not real witches. A whole lot of crystals and flowing skirts though.
