"Annie" came Matt's voice as it popped in Annie's head.
"Hi Matt, what's up?" asked Annie as she smiled.
"I need your help Annie, I got into a little sticky situation" said Matt in a sheepish tone.
"What did you do?" asked Annie in confusion.
"Well I kind of made a mess of things in the lab, and oh, I'm stuck as well" said Matt as he laughed sheepishly and he hung on the white celling of the lab as he was covered in some strong pink looking substance from head to toe.
"What happened?" asked Annie.
"I was making a sticky potion and it went overboard, can you come to the lab right now? I can't even move, I'm stuck on the celling" said Matt.
"My gosh Matt, I will be right there, give me a moment" said Annie.
"Alright, thanks" said Matt as he smiled.
"Oh I'm so sorry, but I have to go right now, Matt was playing around in the lab and he got himself stuck" said Annie as she looked at Clove and Maddie.
"Oh that guy, seriously?" asked Maddie as Annie nodded.
"Should we come with you?" asked Clove.
"No, no you, guys can go on without me, I should be back soon" said Annie.
"Okay" said Clove as she smiled and Annie smiled as she ran in the opposite direction as Maddie shook her head.
"You don't want to go with her?" asked Clove as she looked at Maddie.
"Not at all, she and Matt can be together" said Maddie as she shook her head.
…
Annie walked to the lab as she opened the doors and she was met with a huge pink mess.
"Matt" called Annie as she could not see him anywhere.
"Over here" said Matt as he laughed and Annie looked up.
"Gosh Matt, what the heck happened here?" asked Annie as she could not believe what she was seeing.
"A lot of things" replied Matt.
"How are we supposed to get you off there?" asked Annie.
"I don't know, I've tried everything, but this sticky potion really lives up to its name, I think that I added way too much hagfish slime" said Matt as he laughed and Annie shook her head.
"I think that I have to pull you out then" said Annie as she tapped both her feet and she started to float.
"Nice spell" said Matt as he smiled.
"Thank you, I know right, I've been working on modernizing my levitatis spell" said Annie as she laughed and she floated up to the celling as she was face to face with Matt.
"Where is your hand?" asked Annie as Matt wriggled his hand that was stuck in the sticky potion.
"This is really sticky" said Annie as she held Matt hand and her hand was automatically stuck to his, which was a good thing in this case.
"I know" said Matt as he laughed.
"What I don't get is why you tried to make a sticky potion, and you obviously overdid It" said Annie.
"Well my Grandfather asked me to make some for him, and well here I am" said Matt as Annie laughed and she shook her head as she started to pull Matt but he wouldn't budge.
"Gosh" said Annie as she pulled with all her might.
"Wait Annie, don't hurt yourself" said Matt.
"No, no wait, I think I got I" said Annie as she pulled Matt with all her might as she pulled him out of all the pink sticky potion as he floated along with her.
"Thanks Annie" said Matt as he smiled.
"You are welco…" said Annie as she was cut off and she and Matt suddenly started to fall.
"Ahhh" said Annie as she closed her eyes as they fell and she waited for the impact but it never came as Matt caught her and he set her down as she opened her eyes.
"Oh" said Annie as Matt laughed.
"Gosh how heavy are you? My levitatis spell can't even hold you" said Annie as she shook her head.
"I'm sorry" said Matt as he smiled.
"It's fine, anyway, let's get this place cleaned up, I doubt Uncle Capi would like to see the lab like this" said Annie.
"I agree, but which spell do you think can get rid of this?" asked Matt.
"Hmm, I don't know, let me ask Curtis" said Annie as Matt nodded.
"Curtis, Matt and I are in a sticky situation, which spell do you think we can use to clean up a really messy sticky potion?" asked Annie.
"Just make a potion to dissolve the sticky potion, It should clean up everything" said Curtis.
"Okay, which potion?" asked Annie.
"Check the shelf, you will find an explanation there" said Curtis.
"Alright Curtis, thank you" said Annie as she smiled and she turned to look at Matt.
"It looks like we are going to have to make another potion to clean this one up" said Annie as she smiled.
"Well let's get started then" said Matt as he laughed and Annie laughed as well.
…
"Yes, I will see you later Professor Reagan" said Ollie as he smiled and he walked into the hall.
"Of course, nope, I'm not doing this" said Maddie as she turned around once she saw Ollie and he saw her as well.
"Maddie, where are you going?" asked Clove as Maddie looked at her, she had forgotten that she was with her.
"Avoiding me now are you?" asked Ollie as he smiled and Maddie groaned as she looked at him.
"Oh so you know blondie, don't stand in my way then" said Maddie as Ollie just smiled at her.
"I am not standing in your way at all Maddie" said Ollie as he smiled and Maddie scoffed as Clove gasped and Ollie finally noticed her as he smiled.
"Oh Hello" said Ollie with a friendly smile.
"Oh my Prince, it really is you" said Clove as she bowed down, it had taken her a second to recognize Ollie.
"I am Clove my prince, I am an agent of the cauldron" said Clove as Ollie was surprised that she was bowing at him and she looked at Maddie who was angry that her mother was bowing down to him.
"Yes, I know who you are, and you do not need to bow to me" said Ollie as he smiled and he helped Clove up.
"You do?" asked Clove in confusion, she did not believe that someone as important as Ollie, the heir to the throne would know her.
"Yes I do, you are Maddie's cousin and Maddie is my friend" said Ollie as he smiled and Clove gasped as she looked at Maddie, she did not know that Maddie knew the Prince of the Witch Realm.
"Let's be clear blondie, you and I are not friends, you are just a friend of a friend unfortunately" said Maddie with a scoff.
"Right, that's what you think blondie, but we aren't friends at all" said Maddie as Ollie just laughed and that irritated her even more.
"Shut up blondie, before I make you shut up by giving you a well deserved punch in the face" said Maddie as Clove gasped and she quickly covered Maddie's mouth.
"Maddie, don't say such, he's our prince, you can be accused of treason" said Clove in worry as she looked at Maddie and then she turned to Ollie and she bowed.
"My prince, I apologize on behalf of my cousin, she does not know what she is saying, I am sure she is just grumpy since she hasn't eaten yet, please do not punish her" said Clove as she apologized for Maddie.
"Don't bow down to him Clove, he doesn't deserve it" said Maddie as she pulled Clove up, she didn't like seeing her like that.
Ollie just smiled, he didn't have to ask if Maddie was getting along well with her mother, it was cute seeing Maddie protect someone she loves.
"Clove is right Maddie, you don't have to bow down to me" said Ollie as he smiled and Clove looked at him.
"I don't take an offence to what Maddie says to me, I am already used to it" said Ollie as he smiled.
"You are?" asked Clove in surprise as Ollie nodded.
"Yes I am, Maddie and I go way back, to about 6 months ago, and well regardless of what she says, we are friends" said Ollie as he smiled.
"So you don't have to worry Clove, Maddie isn't committing a federal offence by speaking to me like that" said Ollie as he smiled.
"You really are generous my prince" said Clove as she smiled.
"But he never did anything!" said Maddie as both Clove and Ollie ignored her.
"Just call me Ollie, everyone does" said Ollie as he smiled and Clove nodded as she looked at Maddie.
"But she doesn't it's a long story actually, your cousin is really something" said Ollie as he laughed and Clove laughed, she could agree with that.
"You know what fine, let's go, now, now" said Maddie as she pulled Clove's hand and she forced her to go with her.
"It was nice meeting you Ollie" said Clove as she smiled and she waved at him as Ollie smiled and he waved at her.
"Same here" said Ollie with a smile and he shook his head, Ollie would never change.
"Maddie, it was rude to just leave like that" said Clove as she looked at Maddie who was holding her arm tightly as if she was guarding her from something or someone.
"No it was not, that blondie is annoying, don't talk to him" said Maddie.
"Maddie, I don't think you are being fair" said Clove.
"No, what's not fair is everyone trying to take you when you are my cousin, they should all just stay away" said Maddie as Clove laughed and Maddie looked at her.
"What's so funny?" asked Maddie as she did not get why Clove was laughing.
"You, I never knew that you could be so protective, it's cute" said Clove as she laughed and she gave Maddie a kiss on the forehead as she patted her head.
"You don't have to worry Maddie, I am fine, no one will take me away, I'm with you forever" said Clove as Maddie nodded and she let go of Clove's hand as Clove laughed, she never knew that Maddie could act so childish, it made her see the always strong, confident Maddie in a different light, she could be so cute sometimes.
"But I still mean it, stay away from the blondie and that horrible guy named Armand, they are bad" said Maddie.
"I hear you Maddie" said Clove as she laughed.
…
"And done" said Annie as she poured a watery green liquid on the pink sticky one and it dissolved as the whole lab as clean.
"Finally, thank you for helping me Annie" said Matt as he smiled and looked at Annie.
"Anytime Matt, come on, let's go have lunch" said Annie with a smile as Matt nodded.
