Why I Hate Magic
Chapter 21
The first hour was easy.
At Gloria's insistence, Daniel had changed out of the outfit he was
wearing. She felt it was important to keep Daniel's mind off of his
predicament and she felt that embracing his growing femininity was not
the best way to fight the curse.
Gloria was also slightly disturbed by the sight of the man she loved
dressed in her dirty laundry.
As Daniel took a cold shower, Gloria ventured out of the room to
retrieve the food she had bought.
Gathering their lunch off of the floor where she had dropped it, Gloria
looked around for Brian. His continued presence in the apartment made
her nervous. As long as Brian was around, there was fuel for Danielle's
strength to grow from.
Peering outside the window, though, Gloria saw that Brian's pickup truck
was gone. She breathed a sigh of relief as she picked up a bag from Wal-
Mart that lay by the door.
While buying food, Gloria had stopped at the store and bought a pair of
boy's pajamas for Daniel to wear. Now, as Daniel toweled off, Gloria
opened the package and handed the clothing to him. Pictures of Superman
and Batman danced over the material. The pajamas' soft fabric would not
do much to distract from Daniel's growing curves, but it was a major
improvement over what he had previously been wearing.
Carefully Gloria took a washcloth and wiped off the remaining streaks of
the makeup that clung to Daniel's face. Even dressed in superhero
pajamas and removed of makeup, Daniel still looked like a young woman.
There was nothing Gloria could do to change that. Even as she found her
eyes drawn to Daniel's full lips, Gloria was determined to take comfort
in the small victories she could achieve in the war against Danielle.
For the rest of the afternoon Gloria and Daniel confined themselves to
Daniel's room, playing video games and watching movies. Gloria found
herself constantly glancing at her friend, to check if he was awake.
During one of Gloria's peaks, she glimpsed Daniel staring at a picture
on his bookshelf. In the picture Daniel had one arm around Gloria, the
other around Brian. Gloria saw a look of sadness and longing in Daniel's
eyes and began to grow worried.
"You and Danielle were roommates, you know," Daniel said. "During your
freshman year."
"Oh," Gloria said, not wanting to discuss Danielle's memories.
"Yes. You were so kind to me. I was far from home, but you made me
forget about all my worries and anxieties. I can remember how, in our
first week in the dorm, you and I stayed up all night and watched Brad
Pitt movies. I told you about how I had a crush on Brad from 'Legends of
the Fall' and you told me about how you had the hots for him in 'Fight
Club'."
"I really don't think we should be talking about this right now," Gloria
said.
"Another night, before the freshmen dance, you helped me get ready for
my first date with Brian."
"OK, now I really know we shouldn't be talking about this right now."
Gloria did not like how Daniel was shifting pronoun usage when
describing Danielle's memories.
"You did my hair and my makeup. I looked beautiful. That night Brian
said I was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen."
"Why are you telling me this?" Gloria asked.
Daniel turned to Gloria and smiled.
"It's just that... I've decided that after all of this is over and I'm
back to my normal self, I want you to always be a part of my life,"
Daniel said. "You have always been there for me, in both of my lives,
offering me support when I needed it. I want to do the same for you. I
want to always be there for you - in the good times and the bad.
Wherever you wanted to go, I'd follow. I'd even go to another magic show
for you."
It was Gloria's turn to smile.
"This experience has made me hate magic more then I ever thought
possible but I'd sit though a hundred card tricks if it meant being
close to you. I love you Gloria. I will always love you."
"I love you too."
And so, as the night stretched on, the end of the curse was in sight,
the two of them settled into the bed to watch television, their minds
only on their future together.
Chapter 22
Gloria glanced at the clock on the wall. It was four in the morning -
only a handful of hours to go before the nightmare was over. Daniel was
on the computer, watching videos on YouTube. Gloria was trying to read a
Stephen King novel that she had found under Daniel's bed. She found
herself having trouble concentrating, though.
"Are you getting tired?" Gloria asked.
"A little," Daniel replied. "But I'm fine. We're not too far from the
finish line, are we?"
Gloria gave Daniel a small smile.
"Well, I'm starting to get a little tired," she said. "I think I'm going
to go make a cup of coffee. You want anything?"
"I'll take a cup."
"Are you going to be alright by yourself?"
"I'll be fine. If I start to get tired, I'll take another cold shower,"
Daniel said.
Gloria got up from the bed and stretched. She was far more exhausted
then she had let on to Daniel. Without two or three cups of coffee,
Gloria felt she was liable to collapse where she stood.
Leaving Daniel at the computer, Gloria slipped out of the room, closing
the door behind her.
As she walked into the apartment's common area, darkness surrounded her.
Tall and wicked shadows danced on the ceiling. Gloria fumbled against
the wall, looking for the light switch that would drive the shadows
away.
As she flipped on the lights, though, she was startled to see Brian
sitting alone at the kitchen table.
"What are you doing sitting in the dark like that?" she asked. "You
almost gave me a heart attack."
"I couldn't sleep," Brian said with a dry voice. "You neither, huh? No
rest for the wicked."
Gloria ignored Brian's strange comment and walked into the kitchen.
"Daniel and I are watching a Kung-fu marathon," she lied. "I'm just here
on a coffee run."
"There's some in the pot," Brian said, pointing to the kitchen counter.
"You're a lifesaver."
She poured two cups, taking a big sip of coffee from the first.
"Why are you making coffee if you're having trouble sleeping?" Gloria
asked.
"So it's just you and Daniel, huh?" he asked, ignoring Gloria.
"Yeah," Gloria said, taking another sip of coffee. "Just the two of us."
"Did Danielle leave?"
Gloria frowned as she took another sip and tried to read Brian's
expression.
"Yep," she said. "She took off not long after I got back. She said to
tell you goodbye, though."
"Why are you trying to take her away from me, Gloria? What gives you the
right? Why do you get to decide who stays and who goes?"
"What are you talking about?" Gloria said, suddenly nervous.
She set her coffee cup down and began to walk towards Daniel's room.
Brian stood up and blocked her way.
"Drop the act, Gloria," Brian said. "I heard you and Danielle talking. I
don't understand everything that's going on, but I think I get the gist
of it. Daniel is becoming Danielle. I love Danielle. In order for
Danielle and me to be together, Daniel has to stop being Daniel. That's
all I need to know."
Something was wrong. As Gloria took a step back from Brian, she realized
she could not feel her feet. Worse, she began to notice that her vision
was becoming fuzzy.
"But Daniel's your friend!" she said, her voice a whisper.
"And Danielle is my fianc?e. I heard her say that."
Gloria felt her legs begin to buckle. The darkness was starting to creep
back into the room. As she stumbled forward, Brian caught her.
"The coffee..."
"Just a little sedative," he said. "You'll be fine. Tell me Gloria,
you'd fight hard to keep Daniel, right?"
"Yes," Gloria managed to sputter out before collapsing into
unconsciousness.
"Well I fought harder."
Brian scooped Gloria up in his arms and carried her over to the living
room couch. As he laid her down on the couch, he placed a blanket over
her, tucking her in.
"I'm sorry Gloria, I really am. You and Daniel were meant for each
other. But Danielle was meant for me. What was I supposed to do? Don't
worry, in the morning all of this will be over."
Chapter 23
Gloria woke from the couch with a start.
Sunlight was drifting in from the apartment's window. As Gloria rubbed
her forehead, she began to remember the events that led to her collapse.
Oh no, she thought in a panicked rush. What had Brian done?
As Gloria sat up on the couch, she began to notice that the apartment
had changed around her.
While Daniel and Brian's furniture had previously been a hodgepodge of
styles and designs, the result of an afternoon spent dumpster diving,
the apartment she now sat in seemed to have a matching decor. Rugs and
lamps gave the room a personality that had previously been lacking.
On a normal day Gloria would have been overjoyed to see Daniel and Brian
actually taking an interest in the appearance of their home. Today,
though, the connotations that this overnight change brought only
frightened Gloria.
Even worse though were the pictures.
Everywhere Gloria looked, there were pictures. She picked up a framed
snapshot that sat on a nearby table.
In it, Gloria saw herself, Brian and a young woman. Gloria recognized
the woman's face right away. In the picture, though, Danielle had long,
flowing hair and was dressed in a cute college sweatshirt that clung
tightly to her ample chest. Her arm was wrapped tightly around Brian's
waist; her eyes stared intently into her boyfriend's. Gloria could see a
look of devotion in both of their faces.
Gloria threw the picture onto the ground and picked up another.
In this picture Danielle was at a costume party. She was dressed as a
nurse, her crisp white outfit showing off both her slender legs and
cleavage.
In another photo, the young woman was with her family. Gloria couldn't
help but notice how much Danielle resembled her mother and sister.
Gloria's heart began to beat wildly.
With trembling hands she picked up one more picture.
In the photo, the girl was smiling, tears streaming down her face, as
she flashed the camera an engagement ring.
Gloria couldn't take it anymore.
She threw herself on the couch and began to cry. She had lost
everything. Daniel was gone forever.
As she cried on the couch, she heard the front doorknob turn. She picked
up her head and, through tear-stained eyes, looked at the front door as
it opened.
Even after looking at the pictures, Gloria was still not prepared for
what she saw.
Danielle was beautiful, glowing. She was dressed in a peach-colored
sundress and flat sandals. Her long wavy brown hair flowed down over her
shoulders. Perfect white teeth shined through a radiant smile.
Gloria was hard pressed to spot even an iota of Daniel in this woman's
gorgeous face.
This girl, this stranger, ran over and hugged Gloria, giggling
uncontrollably.
Gloria noticed that Danielle even smelled different.
"I'm glad to see that Sleepy Head is finally awake!" the girl said,
between bouts of laughter.
"Daniel?"
The girl tilted her head and gave Gloria a funny look.
"You missed your fitting appointment, silly, but don't worry," Danielle
said. "I rescheduled it for this afternoon."
"Fitting?"
"For your bridesmaid dress."
Exasperation was starting to show through Danielle's voice.
"Gloria, are you okay? You're eyes are all puffy. Have you been crying?"
"I guess I'm kind of out of it this morning."
"Don't worry; I have some tea that will clear up all of that bad mojo
you're feeling."
Danielle began to giggle again.
"I still can't believe you're back in town. This weekend is going to be
so amazing!"
Back in town? Did she not live in the city in this new reality? Where
had she gone, Gloria wondered.
"Hey, would you mind helping me and Brian unload some groceries from the
truck?"
Gloria frowned. She couldn't wait to see Brian. She was going to punch
him right in his coffee-drugging face.
"Sure," she said.
Gloria slipped on her shoes and walked outside behind Danielle. She saw
Brian standing behind the truck. His usual shoulder-length blonde hair
had been cut short to his head, almost like Daniel used to wear it. He
was dressed in a polo shirt and khaki pants, a change from his usual
Hawaiian shirts and grungy jeans.
Even though Danielle was obviously the type of girl who changes her
boyfriend's appearance, he seemed happier then ever.
Gloria watched as Brian bent over to gather some cans that had fallen on
the floor. Danielle snuck up behind him and slipped her hand in his back
pocket, grabbing his bottom in the process. Brian turned and kissed
Danielle on the lips.
Gloria was shattered. They looked so happy together.
As Danielle carried a bag of groceries into the apartment, Gloria walked
over to Brian.
"How could you?" she hissed through clenched teeth.
"Whoa now. What did I do this time?" Brian asked, laughing.
"How could you have taken him from me?"
As Brian's laughter died down, a look of confusion swept across his
face.
"I'm not sure I know what you're talking about," he said.
And Gloria could tell that Brian really didn't know what she was talking
about.
Reality had shifted and Brian didn't even remember betraying Daniel.
Gloria began to cry.
Brian, a look of genuine concern on his face, put a hand on Gloria's
shoulder.
"What's wrong, Gloria?"
Gloria violently removed Brian's hand, shuddering.
"Don't you touch me," she said. "Don't you ever touch me."
Even if he did not remember what he did, Gloria still did. She would
never be able to forgive him.
"What's going on out here?"
Danielle was standing at the front of the pick-up truck, staring at
Gloria and Brian, a look of worry spreading across her face.
"Hey... I'm not really feeling well," Gloria managed to say, genuinely
sick to her stomach. "Would you guys be fine if I ran inside and used
the bathroom real quick?"
"Sure," Danielle said, smiling. "But make it real quick. I wanted to
show you some floral arrangements this morning."
Gloria managed to give the girl who used to be Daniel a feeble smile
back and ran inside the apartment.
Chapter 24
Gloria stood inside the room where she had twice made love with the man
who owned her heart and felt the very same heart break. The room was now
a guest bedroom. More pictures of Danielle and Brian decorated the
walls. Gloria could not bear to look at any more pictures.
She went into the bathroom, sat down on the toilet and began to cry.
"Why?" Gloria asked out loud. "Why would this happen to you Daniel? How
could anybody do this to you?"
Gloria's voice could barely be understood beneath her deep, gasping
sobs.
"I wish you were yourself. I wish you were mine again."
As Gloria cried, the lights in the bathroom began to flicker.
At first Gloria did not notice, caught up in her crying. But as the
bathroom was plunged into darkness, something in the mirror's reflection
caught her eye. Slowly, a strange bluish light was beginning to emit
from behind the glass, eventually giving way to something that, for all
intents and purposes, looked like a face.
Even though this face had eyes, ears, a nose and a mouth, it didn't look
like any face Gloria had ever seen. It was a constantly shifting mess of
light and shadows, seeming to be everything and nothing at once.
"How dare you," the face rasped.
With every word its mouth opened up to a dark and deep oblivion.
"How dare you," it said again. "You meddle with reality as if it was
your personal dollhouse."
Gloria was growing very, very scared.
"Who are you?" she whispered.
"Who am I? Who are you? You are but a child, yet you meddle in that
which you do not understand. You deal out curses as if it was your
birthright."
"Curses?" Gloria moaned. "Me? I did this?"
"You know not of the powers you possess. How completely and utterly
predictable."
The face slowly dissolved in the mirror. In its place Gloria could make
out an all too familiar scene.
Reflected in the glass, Gloria could see herself standing in a darkened
parking lot facing Daniel.
At first her heart leapt at the chance to see her love as he used to be,
but as she recognized the anger that spread across her mirror-self's
face, her heart began to sink once again.
"You know what, Daniel?" the mirror version of her asked. "You're right.
I could have brought it up. But you know what else? Maybe I shouldn't
have to. Maybe you should be able to tell that I'm in love with you
without me shouting it from the mountaintops."
Gloria saw shock spread across Daniel's face. The shock was followed
shortly by pain.
"Sometimes I wish you were a girl. Maybe if that magician had changed
you tonight, you would actually be able to tell what I'm feeling for
once. We could share our emotions with each other and I wouldn't have to
wear a giant billboard advertising what I'm thinking every time I wanted
to have a meaningful conversation with you. I really do wish you were my
girlfriend, because you obviously have no interest in ever being my
boyfriend."
The scene faded away, replaced once again by the shifting face.
"I didn't mean - I mean, it wasn't what I was trying - "
"You didn't realize that anybody was listening?" the voice asked. "You
didn't realize that you had the power?"
"Yes! It was an accident. I didn't mean it. I didn't want to curse
Daniel. I was just upset. Don't you understand that?"
"I do understand. You did not intend to invoke magic. But you did. And
now you, like so many before you, must live with the consequences."
"But if I have the power to curse, don't I have the power to un-curse?"
"Have you ever thought that maybe she is happier this way?"
"Daniel's not a she! And he would be happier with me, I know it!"
"Another would disagree with you."
"You're talking about Brian, right? Well, Brian does not deserve
Danielle. He did not earn her. Not really. She was given to him through
magic. I fought for Daniel. I'm fighting for him now. He and I are
supposed to be together."
"If you say so," the face said, no emotion showing in its voice. "I
could take this pain from you. I've done that in the past to others. I
could take away your memory. You would leave this room unable to
remember the way reality used to be. This could be my gift to you."
"Never. I never want to forget Daniel. I don't accept that. I want you
to turn Daniel back to normal."
"Normal has changed. Normal is now."
"Well, I want things back the way they used to be."
"But what about the consequences?"
"Fuck the consequences!"
With Gloria's outburst the face stood still. As it paused its shifting,
Gloria was able to catch sight of its true nature for a brief moment. In
this moment Gloria saw exactly who she was dealing with and instantly
regretted being so flippant in her tone.
"I will do what you say," the face said. "I will remove the curse. But
there are always consequences. Never forget that. You cannot play with
magic of this nature without altering certain things irrevocably."
"Will Daniel be a man again?"
"Yes."
"Then that's all I care about."
The face began to fade from sight. Before it was gone, though, it
offered one last warning.
"Remember, there are always consequences. And sometimes the smallest
change can usher in bigger costs then you could have ever imagined. If
you ever attempt to play with magic of this nature again, it will be you
who pays the price."
With that the face disappeared from the mirror and the bathroom lights
turned back on.
Chapter 25
Gloria stood, staring at herself in the mirror, unsure of what to do.
She picked up a towel and wiped her face, cleaning the tear streaks from
her cheeks.
She took a moment to steady herself as she slowly opened the bathroom
door and looked at Daniel's bedroom.
It was back to normal - down to the dirty clothes on the floor and the
waste basket that overflowed with trash.
Gloria could have kissed each individual piece of trash.
Instead, she did a little jig as she leapt out of the bathroom.
Everything was going to be all right.
She ran out of the bedroom and into the kitchen.
Daniel was putting some canned food into the cabinet, his back to
Gloria. Gloria snuck up behind him and planted a kiss on his neck,
hugging him tightly.
As Daniel turned to look his unseen kisser, Gloria was infinitely
pleased to see that there was nothing about him that seemed in the least
bit feminine.
"Hey, where'd you go? I was worried about you."
"I'm fine," she said. "I was feeling sick, but now I'm fine."
"I'm glad to hear that. We have a big day in front of us, birthday
girl."
Daniel bent down and kissed Gloria on the forehead.
Gloria could have melted.
Daniel handed Gloria a roll of paper towels to put in the cabinet. As
she bent down to open the door, she thought she heard Daniel say
something.
"I'm sorry," she said. "I didn't hear what you said."
"I asked if Brianna could come with us tonight," Daniel said. "Her
boyfriend broke up with her last week and she's been moping around the
apartment all day."
Gloria heard the sound of footsteps from above her, on the second floor
of the apartment. Standing up, Gloria saw a tall, athletic girl descend
down the stairs.
Long, shapely legs flowed from khaki shorts that barely covered her ass.
A large, perky set of breasts bounced beneath a tight, short-cut polo
shirt.
Gloria's mouth fell slightly as she stared at the beautiful blond-haired
girl who walked up to her and Daniel.
The girl gave Gloria a small, insincere smile before turning to Daniel
and swatting him softly on the behind.
"I didn't know you were going to the grocery store," the girl purred. "I
could have come."
Daniel frowned at the girl and whispered something into her ear.
Gloria was barely able to make out what he said.
"What did I tell you about doing that, Brianna," he hissed. "We talked
about how it freaks Gloria out when you touch me like that."
"She knows that these days we're just friends," the girl said, not
bothering to silence her own voice as she smiled innocently at Gloria.
"You're lucky that Gloria even lets you room with me. Most girls would
freak out at the idea of their boyfriends living with a girl like me."
Brianna smiled at Gloria, a sneer slipping through her attempt at false
friendliness.
"That's why Gloria is the best girlfriend in the world," Daniel said,
his voice only slightly shaking.
The girl laughed as she took the cans that Daniel had been holding.
Chapter 26
Brianna stared at Gloria, hate on her mind.
Since the day she met Daniel at their freshmen orientation, Brianna had
harbored a crush on him. In the years since, the two of them had grown
close, become best friends. Together they had helped each other with
classes, relationships and disasters of all shapes and sizes.
Once, during a particularly stressful night of test cramming, they had
even become something more then friends - if only for a moment of brief,
fleeting passion.
The night they made love, Brianna's crush on Daniel had turned into
full-fledged, head-over-heels devotion.
And then Daniel had met somebody else.
Quickly he had forgotten all about his and Brianna's night together,
reestablishing the two of them purely as friends.
All of his attention and love was turned to this new girl, Gloria.
But Brianna was not about to let go of Daniel without a fight. Now that
she had managed to convince Daniel to let her use an extra room in his
apartment, Brianna knew that she had been given a second chance to get
close to him. To win him back, she was going to have to earn it. Nothing
was going to get in her way - especially Gloria.
Soon all would be right with the world. Things would be back to normal.
Sometimes, Brianna couldn't help but wish...
Chapter 27
Gloria knew, as she watched the girl Brian had become stand on her tip-
toes and put a box of cereal in the pantry, that things weren't
completely back to normal.
Gloria was having trouble recalling specific memories, while other,
different memories were slowly shifting into focus. She knew that in
this reality, she hadn't known Daniel since freshmen year. But while
they had spent fewer years in each other's company, the years they had
spent together were beyond wonderful.
Gloria could tell from the glances that Brian was giving Daniel that
Brianna had a past with him. She could also tell that Brianna sought
more from Daniel then simple friendship.
Gloria knew this but did not care.
She had Daniel back in her life. What was a little new competition
compared to the alternative. She had fought for Daniel before, faced
down something ancient and evil, all for a second chance at love. She
would fight for him again if she had to. Daniel was back and all was
right with the world.
"Are you excited about going to your birthday magic show?" Daniel asked
through gritted teeth.
"You know what?" Gloria said. "We don't have to go. Why don't we go
birthday bowling instead?"
"Really? I know how much you were looking forward to watching Dr.
Suspendo's show."
"I think I've had enough of magic for a while," Gloria replied, stealing
a glance at the girl who was longingly staring at Daniel.
"That's the best thing that I've heard all day," Daniel said, grinning
widely. "You know how much I hate magic."
