continuing. “I have always known my spirit guide as a child my parents thought I had an imaginary friend as I was always chatting to myself but it was actually my guide who has been a great source of comfort and support to me. Elizabeth may well be your guide but it is difficult to tell now, as the communication is weak. Elizabeth was a very strong witch but gave up witchcraft many years before she passed away and as you are a new witch and have discovered your skill in unusual circumstances neither of you are able to communicate effectively.”
“Do all witches have a guide?” I asked.
“To a certain extent all witches can reach out to someone when they require help but not every witch has an assigned guardian. Some witches never learn the skill and do not embrace this side of witchcraft and others are happy with their life and do not require the support from the spiritual side. I can help you with mediumship if you are interested but it’s probably best to stick to the basics for now.” Annalise said.
“Yeah I’ll definitely stick to the basics for now,” I said patting the bag Annalise has given me “Thank you for your help today.” I said as I hopped out of the car.
“You are very welcome Lauren. I’m here whenever you need me.”
I waved goodbye to Annalise and walked into the house and quickly reassured Gavin and Alice as they both looked so worried “Its ok, I’m fine. It was quite interesting and I’ve leant some stuff. Hopefully no more bursting light bulbs. I think I’m going to be ok with all this, I just need a bit of time and then I’ll be ok.” I smiled and Gavin came over and hugged me tight and kissed the top of my head.
“I’m so happy Lauren, I’m so glad you have accepted all this stuff so amazingly,” he smiled at me and I could tell he was at a loss for words.
“It’s ok. I know you feel guilty but don’t. No one knew any of this would happen and you can’t help who you fall for,” I kissed him and smiled to reassure him “Would have been nice not to have turned into a witch but I think I can live with it.”
“Lauren I am so pleased you are adjusting so well and so quick. I do appreciate how hard it all must be and I just wanted to say it’s a pleasure having you here and part of our family.” Alice said smiling at me and Gavin “You can ask me anything and I will try my best to give you an honest answer and if you need any help with spell practice I’m here,” she continued and shrugged “not that I know how to cast spells but you know I could get you candles or whatever else you need.”
“Thank you Alice. I’m fine honestly Annalise has given me loads of stuff and I think I’m just going to stick to the basics for now and try to get back to normal for a while although she told me some really interesting stuff about spirit guides which I might look into at a later date. For now I need to get back to work and home and seeing my friends. I’ll stay here a few more days and then I think normality needs to start again.” Gavin hugged me again and then we all wondered into the kitchen where everyone settled down. Just to show them I was getting used to the whole witch thing I dug into the bag Annalise had given me and placed a candle on the table “Hey you guys look; you’ll never need matches again.” I smiled and placed my hands over the unlit candle. “Ardescat” I said, and the candle wick began to glow. “Wow!” I said with a big grin “I didn’t even finish the spell Annalise taught me.” I raised my hands and the flame grew and then I dropped them to the table and the flame went out.
“That’s pretty impressive,” Gavin said.
“You will be a fine witch Lauren, I’m very proud of you.” Alice said and hugged me and I finally felt like everything would be fine.

The next couple of days were great me and Gavin just did some normal stuff, cinema and going out for lunch. We had to be discreet though as I was still faking being
