Chapter 16 - Chapter Fifteen ~ One Mystics’ Fantasy and Another’s Pain in the Arse

As soon as she left the hall, Azalea bumped into a chest and fell to the floor, as did the person she bumped into, and their books flew into the air and fell to the floor. Azalea looked to see a handsome looking male wearing a grey t-shirt, a pair of dark blue denim looking jeans with black boots on his feet. His raven-black locks were ending at his shoulders, and his brown-hazel like eyes were showing concern for the nature witch, standing up first and offering a hand up to help her. She grabbed his hand and was risen to her feet, as they began to pick up their books.

"Are you okay? I wasn't watching where I was going."

Azalea looked into his eyes and spoke kindly

"Y-yeah... I'm fine... I wasn't watching where I was going either. I'm Azalea." She introduced herself.

'Pretty forward, Azalea, introduce yourself before HE does!' Azalea mentally slapped herself for her forwardness. In the stories she heard, the men make the first introduction. 

"Cool. I'm Adrian Brooks" He replied.

"You're a warlock of water? I'm a nature witch."

"You look like a nature witch, especially with a name like Azalea. It's a lovely name." The water warlock noticed Azalea was beginning to blush like a red rose. 

"Well..... I should get back to my dorm, my friends will be waiting for me. I'll see you around." Azalea brushed a strand of her hair behind her ear.

"Same. It was nice meeting you Azalea the nature witch." Adrian replied in a fake British knight/gentleman voice.

Adrian handed Azalea's books back to her, as Azalea did the same, with his books. Their hands brushed, and all they could feel were butterflies flying all around in their bellies.

Azalea giggled "It was nice meeting you too, Adrian the water warlock."

After waving her hand goodbye, Azalea and Adrian walked away, only to look back at each other after walking a good 10-12 feet away from each other, before turning away and walking to their destinations. 

Walking as fast as she could, Azalea got to her dorm, and closed the door behind her, sighing like those girls in romance movies as she walked to see her friends playing Go Fish. Evelyn noticed the nature witch's return

"Hey, Azalea, got your book back?" Evelyn inquired.

"I just met the hottest guy in all Hecatia." Azalea exhaled.

Blanche and Marina both exclaimed "Really?!"

"Name? Aged?" Marina began.

"Level of hot? Royal status? Warlock of what?" Blanche finished the questions.

Azalea blinked "Adrian Brooks, water warlock, looked around 18 or 20, 100 per cent physically hot, perfect gentleman, I don't think he's royalty, he didn't dress like a royal, and he had black shoulder-length hair, dark eyes and sun kissed skin."

Marina widened her eyes. "That sounds like a perfectly made Hydroshi male. They're essentially every mystic female and gay male's sexual fantasy."

Evelyn was gobsmacked "Really?"

Claire nodded "Oh yeah, Hecate's finest gift to us modern world mystics."

"Although I heard Prince Caspian Van Amstel is very handsome." Blanche added.

"Yes, but no one's ever seen him, not even us Hydroshi. His dad had him homeschooled for all his life. Even palace staff have to leave any form of camera at home." Marina mentioned.

At that point, Ember and Iris walked in the door and sat with their friends on the lounge.

"What are we talking about?" Ember asked.

"Azalea met a hot warlock named Adrian." Blanche announced.

"Wow." Iris said.

Azalea hummed as she nodded.

"I think Potionology class is about to start." Marina said, changing the subject.

The seven girls realised the time, rushed to get the necessary things and practically ran to the Potionology classroom, to see a crowd of New Blood students waiting for Percival.

"Made it!" Claire exhaled.

Percival arrived a few seconds later, unlocked the classroom, and after he entered it, the students practically squeezed through the door and into the seats.

"Welcome to Potionology, everyone. I'm Professor Oswald, and I'll be teaching you about making, recognising, studying and understanding potions. Now, the origin of the potion began in..."

The door was opened by a young man, wearing grey and black. He had greenish grey eyes, brunette hair and a bit of stubble decorating his jaw. He looked pretty damn attractive. Probably spoke with an accent you'd die to hear.

"Ah, Mr Allaway. I hope you have an excuse?" Percival asked in a authoritative tone.

"Yeah, I had your mum's bush in me face!" Reed boasted casually .

Percival remarked sarcastically "Very amusing, Mr Allaway. Anymore remarks and you'll lose your privileges."

Reed rolled his eyes and sat near Claire, Evelyn, Azalea, Marina, Iris, Blanche and Ember.

Evelyn whispered "Who's that?"

"Reed Allaway. He and I attended school back in Demeteria." Azalea muttered quietly

"He's a nature warlock?" Marina quietly asked

Azalea whispered "Yeah."

Percival cleared his throat, which got the students' attention, and the young adults looked at their handsome Professor.

"Thank you. Now, even though Aphrodite Day is coming up, we are not going to learn about any love potions. Headmistress Spellmont and Vice Headmistress Evermond have made it clear that any usage of love potions and spells will automatically have your powers suspended for a week, and loss of privileges. Now, let us begin learning about the various potions we know and use..."

Minutes later, some students were bored, some were eager, some were asleep, and some were just taking notes. Evelyn looked between the Professor, the board and her notebook as she was writing down her lesson.

Claire's blue eyes couldn't help but wander to the rebellious Reed Allaway, where he began to use two of his pens as drumsticks and began tapping them against his desk, garnering the attention of everyone in the room, plus Percival.

Percival crossed his arms over his chest. "Reed, do you want to lose your privileges?"

"Uh... no." Reed responded, whilst snickering. Evelyn thought that response sounded like it came from Beavis and Butthead.

Percival exhaustedly replied "Then please stop being silly and get to work!"

"Yes, sir, teach." Reed sarcastically replied.

Claire scoffed as she wrote in her textbook and looked at her potionology book, but Reed looked to see the Lunarisian Princess.

The lesson continued on peacefully... until Reed got an idea! He tore a piece of paper and wrote

HEY! BLONDIE! WANNA HOOK UP? Reed A.

He then scrunched it into a ball and threw it at Claire, but he was noticed by Percival and as soon as the paper ball hit the solar light witch, Percival was now fuming.

"That's it, Mr Allaway. You have lost your outing privileges. Congratulations, hope it was worth it."

Reed mutters "It will be when I tap that."

Percival gave a stern look "Excuse me?"

"I said sorry sir." Reed shouted.

Percival sighed frustratedly and resumed teaching. The bell rang, and the tired potionology Professor watched as his class rush to exit. Evelyn gave him a apologetic smile, to while he gave her a grateful and friendly smile, and watched as she disappeared into a crowd of young mystics.
