Knowing they couldn’t push their parents much further, considering the week they’d already had, Sky and Star told Crista to just send them the link to the spell. With a sigh, they then shakily got dressed and had Crista cautiously sneak them back out of her house to head home for the night; all the while, hoping it wouldn’t be their last night of freedom after all.

The next morning, Star burst into Sky’s room before school that day. Inside, he was still in the process of sliding his zipper-covered tartan pants over those narrow hips. He startled a bit as she interrupted him and raised an eyebrow, “didn’t get enough of me naked yesterday?” he smirked as he shook his head and looked back down to finish fastening his pants around the waist that would make a supermodel self-conscious.

“Did you look at the spell?” Star asked, looking down at her phone rather than her half naked lover, as odd as that was.

“Spell?” he asked with a shake of his head as he finished zipping his pants and moved to reach for the fishnet shirt waiting on his bed.

“The one Crista found” she said as she continued looking back down at the phone with a bit of worry.

“Why would I look at it? It’s witchcraft, and we’re not actually witches. I think we both know that our abilities don’t come from mother nature as much as they do from outer fucking space” he mumbled the last bit as he slid his shirt on.

Star shook her head, “well, I think that means that we’d have a lot better chance at making it work than most actual witches” she scoffed then moved closer as he pulled his hair from under the collar of the shirt he had just donned. “Just look at this” she told him as she handed him her phone.

Sky skimmed the wording of the spell, “blood of a virgin, related to the person you’re trying to heal?” he just shook his head, “that’s a joke right?” he scoffed as he handed her back the phone.

“No, Sky, it said virgin’s blood from someone sharing the blood of the one who needs to be healed.”

“Isn’t that what I said?” he asked as he looked back down at her skeptically.

“Sky, there’s a difference between blood of a virgin, and virgin’s blood” Star told him pointedly.

“There is now?” he raised a brow again.

“Think about it Sky” Star sighed.

He then shook his head again, only to take pause as he realized what she was saying. He took a deep breath before speaking, “so I guess if you had cancer and no one in your family was a virgin, you’d just be screwed?” he scoffed.

Star shook her head again as she looked down at the spell once more, “also says under the stars, with the one who needs healed present.”

Sky shook his head again as he slid his nearly floor length black jacket over his clothes, “why are you even still looking at this, Star? We obviously can’t do this.”

“Well, I know it’s not, exactly ideal” Star began nervously.

“That’s putting it mildly” Sky took the phone back again and re-read the spell, “so, Crista has to lose her virginity, with her fucking sister watching; oh, and under the stars. Maybe that means you need to invest in a strap-on for a romantic evening with our fourteen year old friend, Star” he stated wryly, “yeah, that just all sounds wonderfully ideal.”

Star looked down, “I suppose I could. But I’m pretty sure Crista would be a little more receptive if it was the one of us actually born with the right … tool for the job” she stated with more than a bit of nervousness. Sky just shook his head in disbelief that Star was even considering the idea of the spell at all. Star then added, “and it doesn’t necessarily say that Cassie needs to be watching; just present” she corrected, though quietly.

Sky let out another long breath, “other than the fact that we just explained to Crista why me deflowering her is a bad idea” he began pointedly, “let’s not forget how much Cassie fucking hates us. Then, fast forward, if you will, to me asking the Sampson sisters on a moonlit date so I can de-virginize the fourteen year old, while the paralyzed eighteen year old who despises us so much she made up rumors that drove us to try suicide; she’ll just be hangin out, while I do the deed. Sounds perfect” he added with thick sarcasm.

“And I should probably be there too. Considering our powers only work when we’re together” Star added quietly.

Sky just loudly scoffed, “Star, you cannot possibly be serious about us even trying this insanity.”

Star sighed heavily, “well, Crista did say we wouldn’t like it” she admitted sadly.

Sky just scoffed in further disbelief as he moved past her to head downstairs for some attempt at getting through yet another day.

----------------------------------------

That day at school, it was a more than somber day, considering what had happened on the school trip two days earlier. Curt was of course not at school, nor was Alana, so most of the questioning looks fell on Sky and Star that day. Though, for once, there wasn’t simply hatred and disgust behind those looks, as it was more a wary sympathy, as well as maybe even some hidden guilt over the previously held opinions most of the student body had about the ‘twins’ and their allegedly questionable moral code.

When Star and Crista stepped out of the school at the end of the day, it was in time to see Sky getting into the car already. Star gave Crista a wary smile and the two headed toward the car after him. Once they neared the vehicle, Sky sighed heavily and lowered his window, “you need a ride home, Crista?” he asked, though his voice was strained.

The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.

Crista looked over at Star questioningly, though Star’s expression was nearly as unsure as the younger girl’s then. “Do you guys need my room again tonight?” Crista made herself ask.

“Is that a yes?” was Sky’s only response.

“Sure” Crista agreed with a wary smile as she moved to enter the back seat while Star gave Sky a questioning look as she moved around to the passenger seat.

The three were still rather silent, even after entering Crista’s house again that afternoon. Thankfully her parents and Cassie were back at rehab again, so at least they didn’t have to sneak in this time. Though there still weren’t many words exchanged between them as the two females kept giving Sky those continued questioning glances as he distracted himself with his nails, or his phone or his books, or anything else while they waited in silence for whatever it was they were waiting for.

Finally, Star had to speak up, “so are we just hiding from our parents tonight, or what?” she asked Sky with a furrowed brow.

Sky sighed, surprised it took that long for them to ask for his input on what they would or wouldn’t be actually doing that evening. He finally looked up from his phone with another small sigh, “what time does Cassie get home from her appointments, usually?” he asked Crista.

Crista looked confused by the question, but answered “like six. Then we have dinner.”

Another sigh as he turned his eyes back to the phone, “and the sun should be setting shortly after dinner” he added, apparently leaving many of his inner thoughts right then unspoken.

“Sun setting?” Star asked as she looked back at him with a bit of surprise, “are you saying what I think you’re saying?”

Sky closed his eyes with another heavy sigh, “it’s going to be difficult enough without us discussing it to death first” was all he said. That easily silenced the two of them, despite the fact that Crista’s heart was now beating so loudly she was sure they both could hear it.

----------------------------------------

When Cassie and her parents got home Crista awkwardly went to join them for dinner so as to not to arouse any undue suspicion. As Sky and Star waited for dinner to end, Star had to speak up again, “so what exactly is the plan here, Sky?” she had to ask.

“When they’re done, we go down the back stairs. Me and Crista” he swallowed a bit, "will go around the side of the house. You show up downstairs and ask to speak with Cassie. Just try to get her to go talk to you outside. Preferably, where she won’t be able to see me and Crista” he added more quietly.

“Excuse me?” Star asked with obvious worry, “you mean I’m supposed to go try to have an impromptu conversation with the same Cassie who hates my guts?”

“Well believe me, my night is going to be pretty fucking uncomfortable too” Sky returned with a bit of a bite to his tone.

Star just swallowed and then they both tried to compose themselves for the night ahead. Neither of them, truly, were very comfortable with any of this; but they also knew they’d be a lot less comfortable in a jail cell or a science lab for the rest of their lives.

----------------------------------------

An hour or so later, Star found herself sitting on the porch swing next to where Cassie glared coldly ahead from her wheelchair. Casting a glance toward the side of the house, where Sky and Crista were hidden from their view, though still barely fifteen feet away, Star tried to force a nervous smile.

“You think the fact that my sister is stupid enough to actually wanna be friends with you two is gonna change what you both did to me?” Cassie stated through clenched teeth.

Star took a deep breath as she tried to keep her mind off of her lover and her friend and what they were about to be doing. She then looked back over at Cassie sadly, almost glad the older girl couldn’t easily turn to look her way. Having to get through any of this at all was going to be hard enough without having to look Cassie in the eye as well.

“You know we didn’t mean for you to fall from the cliff, Cassie. Everyone’s emotions were running a little high that night. And it was an accident, what happened to you; a terrible accident that we’ve regretted every day since then” Star told her, her voice barely getting past her lips as she spoke.

Though Cassie only scoffed, leaving Star to try to scrape for any more words she even could; which was much easier said than done.

Meanwhile, Crista nervously watched as Sky took a deep breath and removed his long jacket to lay it in the grass beneath them. He then looked back at where she just stared up at him with widened eyes. He took another breath and gestured for her to move to their makeshift blanket there in the yard, under the stars that night, while their ‘sisters’ were a mere fifteen feet away, but thankfully out of sight.

Crista took a deep, shaky breath and moved to take a seat on his jacket as she looked up at him with equal helpings of fear of and desire for what was finally going to happen to her; let alone, happen with someone she was overwhelmingly attracted to, at that.

Closing his eyes again, and taking a deep breath, Sky tried to keep his attention on the young girl before him, rather than the one he ached for each moment they were apart. He then moved to pull off that fishnet shirt, dropping it to the ground below. He then took another breath and began undoing his pants as Crista watched him, barely able to breathe herself.

Not pulling himself free from the now unfastened pants just yet though, Sky took another breath before moving to his knees next to her and shakily beginning to unlace the corseted halter she wore that day. When he finally reached the bottom of the laces, he took one more shaky breath before pulling the material open to expose the pale breasts and already hardened nipples. His eyes moved over her as he shakily pulled the halter free, leaving her topless, her pretty eyes closed in anticipation as he took yet another breath to steel himself. Though his body was already easily starting to react to hers.

He then made himself move closer still as he gently guided her to lay back atop the sprawling black material of his jacket. He then swallowed again as he moved to begin pulling her short skirt and panties down her legs. Though his body was already fully ready for the impending activity, he still was having trouble calming his mind as he had to take another long moment to talk himself into continuing, despite the way his eyes moved over her now completely nude body laying there before him that night.

With another breath, he moved his hand to the back pocket of his still undone pants and found the condom waiting there. After all, Star was the one he no longer needed to use that with, he wasn’t going to risk that with Crista on top of all the other misgivings he already had about being her first.

Crista’s eyes widened again as he began tearing open the wrapper, his hands still shaking slightly. “Wow, we’re already at this part?” she breathed.

Sky attempted a smile as he finished removing the condom from the wrapper, “I was assuming you were already wet, and we could skip a few steps” he told her gently.

“Well, I am wet every second you’re near me, so you’re definitely right about that. Just nervous, I guess” she breathed.

Sky sadly smiled down at her then, “we don’t actually have to do this Crista. It’s ultimately your call. Remember that.”

“Believe me, I definitely want to do this. Just afraid my heart may stop the second you put it in” she whispered.

“It’s true that I’m not officially a girl, but I don’t think it hurts quite that bad” he attempted another small smile down at her before steeling himself to pull his erection free from the pants at last and slide the condom on. Trying to ignore the way her eyes hungrily devoured his body as he completed that task, Sky attempted another small smile as he finally took one more deep breath and moved to that spot above her.

One more look down as if to silently ask her if that was what she really wanted. As she smiled up at him through ragged breaths, Sky finally closed his eyes and moved to enter her at last.
