The air was still warm outside for the early time of the year. Alex stepped out of his parent's car with a short sleeved shirt and jeans. After closing the door, he turned to wave to his father, who gestured to his wristwatch by tapping it a few times in the window, reminding his son to be at that same location in the parking lot of the strip mall in a few hours for pick-up. Alex nodded in understanding and then took off towards the group of friends. He wanted to tell them everything he had learned the day before, about him being a wizard, but his father made it explicitly clear, followed up with his mother's own stern warning, that the normal people, or "muggles" as he learned they were called, were not to know of it. It was absolutely forbidden to reveal magic to non-wizards, and there were harsh punishments for doing so.
Reminding himself to act casual, as if nothing had happened, Alex forced himself to wear a neutral, uncaring expression on his face; even it if felt unnatural. The strip mall was relatively busy today, he noticed. Among his own friends he saw familiar faces from around the neighborhood, even a few he didn't recognize. One of the strangers on the lot was a stunningly pretty girl about his age with long blonde hair. She wasn't apart of his group of friends, but he sure wished she was.
"Got your eyes on somethin' there, Alex?" Kaiden, his best friend, asked while nudging him in the arm.
Alex felt the blush on his cheeks and instantly looked in another direction. "Uhm, no. Why d'you ask?"
"Roigh'..." Kaiden mused, rolling his eyes.
