Walking through Town

Paige and Lily walk through the town, every so often Paige stops and looks back at the school.

"I'm not sure about this, I don't know what we should do. So many people have got caught up in this."

"And every one of them will be understanding when they realize it wasn't you," she reassures. "I don't mean to trivialize this or anything, but this isn't even the oddest thing that's happened around here by far!"

"Give her time - she'll come around. And put yourself in Geoff's place - he is from a time period where 'witches' were rumor and they were imprisoned or burned if there was a mere suspicion of witchcraft activities. Now, not only is he over 600 years from home, but he finds himself in love with someone who is something he didn't believe existed, who would have been treated terribly then, and he must come to grips with all of that."

Stupid is as stupid does.

"You made a mistake while trying to do what you thought was right. There's no shame in that, Paige."

"There's still plenty of time for that." Lily squeezes her hand again.

"She's here now? But you're still in control? What is she saying? Don't believe a word of it, Paige - you know what's right and what's true."

Lily turns and puts her hands on Paige's shoulders. Firmly, she says, "Paige - no. Listen to me. Think of what you had with Geoff. There were good and happy times. You were missing him when he left because he was... he is important to you! 'She' wants only to hurt you and destroy the good things you have here. You know the truth."

Lily shakes her head. "There is no spell I know of for this problem either. And I don't want to take a chance on making things any worse."

"Yes, you can. And you will. I have complete confidence in you."
