Chapter 5

Ander's POV: All the preparations were done for the welcoming party, to celebrate the covens' meeting together. I sat down, up in between the trees and looked from afar to the scenery. I didn't know what to think, Were we friends? Johnathan and I? Or were we more? Maybe I was just looking too much into Johnathan's kindness. Al said," Hi, Ander." I looked down from where I was, and said," Oh..Hi, Al. Shouldn't you be with your instructor, right now?" Al said," Well...Remember when you told me that you'd do one thing I asked, if I had went back to classes with my instructor about a year ago?" I nodded and  said," Yes, I make cookies every single week, because of that promise. Why?" Al said," Well, Johnathan never gets any of your cookies because you never go over there with the cookie tray, and since I told you that I wanted cookies at the time, since I couldn't think of anything. I think I finally know what I want you to do." I said, nervously," What's that?" Al said," You have to make a cookie for my brother,personally, and deliver it to him." Shocked, I didn't say a word in response. I have to give Johnathan, a cookie that I made for him..on a personal level..? 

I had the tray in my hand, now all I had to do was deliver it to Johnathan. I looked down at myself to see if I had washed off all the frosting and dough from my clothes. I did, thankfully, a good job. I looked behind me to see Al, hiding in the bushes, I looked in front of me to see Johnathan and almost all the young ladies over there. I was frightened of what the girls would think I was doing. Being over there, where I didn't belong. I let out a shaky sigh and walked over there, of course I was noticed immediately by Lilian. Lilian was one of the girls that didn't like me. She said," A tray? What's in it..?" I said,quietly and carefully," Al wanted me to deliver it, They're cookies.." Lilian smiled, and said," Here, let me deliver it, I don't think Johnathan should have to look at someone as monstrous looking as yourself." She took the tray away from me, and before I could say anything, ran up the steps, towards Johnathan. I sighed, as I watched her deliver it to him. I didn't want to hear whatever lie she told, as I walked over to Al. I was upset with what she called me, but I hoped Johnathan liked what I baked for him. I brought my hand to my cheek, I didn't look monstrous..right? I was never complimented on my looks, because well, friends usually didn't do that. I never asked, because I thought that I looked ok..but if someone as monstrous and selfish as her called me monstrous, does that make me look like the real monster?

Johnathan's POV: Lilian went over with a tray in her hand, she smiled at me as she said," Look what I made for you." I took the tray from her and opened it to where only I could see it. It was a pill of cookies, the one in the center with my name, and the whole thing made a heart. 

-Picture of the cookies, Johnathan sees-

Johnathan's POV: I took the tray and left, I didn't really know how to respond to my name in a heart. Lilian, while she was a nice girl as far as I've seen, I didn't like her in that way, I didn't love her. I mean maybe if someone else had given me this I would have responded differently, but.. Al looked over my shoulder at the cookies in my tray and said," Wow, I didn't think he'd go that far, must have got lost in cooking." I turned to him and said," He?" Al said," Oh..well..umm.." I said," Lilian told me she made them.." Al laughed and said," Lilian? She barely knows how to cook.. besides, Ander made them for you. Though I'm not surprised he couldn't deliver them himself, like I told him too, those girls that hang around you, are very pushy." I asked," Why would he make me cookies though? with a heart..?" Al said," Well.. I know you never really get any cookies when Ander makes them, so I decided to have Ander make some for you. Of course, he had to do it because of a promise, but I didn't think he'd go that far into the whole personal business.. Anyway, I have to go...Bye!" Ander made this for me because my  brother wanted him too, maybe he was trying to show brotherly love and meant nothing from the heart. And maybe he did mean that he loved me. I knew that if I probably asked him, he would probably never admit to either of my theories, so I will have to drop it for now. I took a bite of the cookie with my name on it, The cookie still being fresh and a little bit warm, the chocolate melted in my mouth. All in all it tasted magnificent, and I understand why Al would want me to have some of Ander's home-baked cookies. They were just simply something that you wanted to share with other people. Maybe that's why Ander made so many..I mean considering where I was these cookies everyone probably could have gotten at least one. I debated on whether I should share them, but then thought of Lilian. If there's one thing I can't stand, it's being lied to. Lilian didn't deserve to eat Ander's fine cooking. Maybe, I should calm down. It's just a cookie, no need to get over protective of it, cookies are made to be eaten...Nah, I'll just have them all for myself, maybe I can save them for a little bit, they should last a couple of days. Has Ander ever tried his own cooking before? I went into my brother's room and like I knew he did every day, Ander was cleaning up his room. Most people usually had to ask him to clean their room, but Ander cleaned up some rooms, that he knew were ok like Al's room. Ander was acting a little off, when he noticed me though.
