Curse Removal (Val, Riley & Maybe Grant???)

[bewitchinghaze]

 Val bounced out of bed, early for once in her life. A strengthening potion and a couple good sleeps later and she was brimming with magic and very much ready to start work on the Middleton Estate. Skipping down the hall, she knocked open Riley's door and threw herself across her still sleeping form.

 

"Unniiiie!" she called into her ear, giggling. "Wakey-wakey! I need your help today. I'll even treat you to breakfast on our way."

 

Not even bothering to wait for her to get up, she bounded over to her closet and hauled out an outfit, tossing it behind her onto her sister's head. A moment later, she was halfway down the hall, singing some Taylor Swift song at the top of her lungs as she gathered up chalk and herbs for the spell circle. A ridiculously quick, and noisy, minute later she was dressed and in makeup. The plants in the house had begun to go a little wild, tossing off new blooms, which she admonished them for and promised she'd be pruning later. Taking a deep calming breath, she went back to Riley's room.

 

"Come on, slowpoke! I'm ready when you are."

Comments

Riley's closed her eyes by now just as the grass touches her cheek and she slaps it away. "YA! No! No touching!" She shrugs. "He might be able to do that too? The whole sky went dark and thunder rolled in."

[bewitchinghaze]

Val cackles, rolling away. "You're such a baby about my plants!" she laughs. "Awesome. I'm dragging him into my garden next time there's a drought."

[jiyunnies]

"Only because you're so annoying about it," she corrects. "I'm pretty sure he'll do anything for food so you'll be a-okay."

[bewitchinghaze]

"Nah, it's because you're a big ol' baby," she smiles, letting the grass brush against her cheek. "Awesome. He can have some cucumbers and stuff from the garden."

[jiyunnies]

"I'm sure he'll take that deal in a heartbeat."

[bewitchinghaze]

"Our veggie garden is gonna be amazing this year." she grins, eyes unfocusing as she imagines it.

[jiyunnies]

"Mmmm fresh salads," Riley smiles, rubbing her tummy. "You always grow the best food."

[bewitchinghaze]

Val grins, sitting up to get another cup of tea. "Your potions help out a hell of a lot, don't forget."

[jiyunnies]

"Oh no worries, I haven't forgotten that," she pokes Val. "Just making sure you haven't either."

[bewitchinghaze]

"I would never." she wriggles away, throwing grass at her. "I'd spend a lot more time driving off bugs if it wasn't for you."

[jiyunnies]

Riley sputters, blowing the grass out of her face with a frown. "Oh shoot, speaking of, I need to mix up something for the flower bed around the shop. Those little bugs from last year are coming back. Do you have some cute little spring flowers that can go in the bed? I think it'd be nice for Moira."

[bewitchinghaze]

Val nibbles at her lip, thinking about it. "Yeah, definitely. I've got some great brightly coloured Gerbera daisies coming up that would make the store look super welcoming, I think. Plus a ton of little accent flowers. It shouldn't be a problem."

[jiyunnies]

Riley leans over and quickly kisses her cheek. "That sounds perfect. The front needs a little pick-me-up."
