but I was filled with ire, once me shock wore off.

Twas a lady's writing...and I was almost positive I knew it! But why? Why would she do such a thing to us? Were we not her friends?

Ian noticed other markers in the book and shook his head. "Twas others hit too, I'm thinkin'."

I quickly wrote, "You have the book!"

He nodded and said, "Aye...and when I find the one that hexed us, I'll paddle them good!"

"No," I wrote. "You can fix us!"

He looked shocked again. "Ya know I don't go for that hocus pocus stuff, woman! Ya must be daft!"

I swatted his arm and wrote, "You're the best one, Ian! I trust ya with all that I am!"

He smiled crookedly and hugged me to him. "I donna know, eve...this is na somethin' to play with, ya know."

I nodded into his chest and kissed his neck. I wrote one word on the slate..."Please?"

I think it twas the kiss on his neck that did it...for the next thing I knew, he began flippin' pages.
