The Magic of Scala Midge 2 (461 words)

"Mr. Perdue is the most disgusting professor I've ever met." Gary told everyone. "He wants to sleep with me."
We were stunned for that one moment and then we all burst out in hilarity. Catching our breaths and holding our stomachs.
"That's because you have a gay ass." We told Gary. much to his repulse.
"Oh please," Gary exclaimed. "What's a gay ass anyway?"
"Go look at the mirror. It's always calling out ... eat me ... eat me," Tori mimicked the infamous line from The Fly.
"Well, if he was a better looking dude I don't think I would mind."
"You guys have so much sex in your head," Tori said.
"I know .... both of them." Gary laughed before we could respond to his cheesiness.
When the laugher had died down Tori announced to Gary that I was in love with Russell. "She's head over heels with Russell the Elephant boy."
"Gross out."
"Fuck you," I tried to defend myself. "I never said that. I told you he was bugging the hell out of me and that was it!"
"Hey, hey calm down girl," Tori grabbed my arm as though it was going to fall apart. "I was just messing with you."
"Sorry, I got a little spooked when I thought about him."
"If he gives you anymore trouble, let me know. I'll gladly fuck him up the wrong way."
"Yeah girlfriend. And I'll fuck him up the right way!" Tori added.
We couldn't help ourselves but cackle like witches.

I was walking home from the library after Sam, Tori and I split up to go our way. Sam had a date with the cheerleader and Tori was supossedly acting in a home video shot by an art student. I was left alone and the library was the best place to camouflage myself since I had no dates, appointments or rendezvous. But as luck would have it Russell was waiting for me at the entrance of the girl's dorm when I arrived.
"Hello, wonderful."
"Why are you following me?"
"Technically I'm not. But I'm waiting for you."
"What do you want? Let me get it straight for you." I took a deep breath. "I don't like you, okay."
"It's fine with me. But I just want to pass it to you," he smiled broadly.
"Pass what?"
"Magic."
I moved away from him. "Piss off."
"You can't deny it," he continued. "Even if you don't want it, it'll come for you."
I clenched my teeth together and swirled around to unload my steam on him but he was not there anymore. He was gone. Vanished from thin air. Was he even there in the first place? I shuddered in the cold kiss of the wind and run up my room.
