Eternity (Circle of Light) by April Margeson Read Free Book Online Page B

going to have to watch my thought process a little better.  Back to normal, I thought to myself.
    The remote to my stereo was lying on top of the dresser.  I held my hand out and I guess you could say, commanded the remote with my mind.  Within seconds it was in my hand. I giggled out loud.  This is absolutely amazing.  To be able to have such power could seriously make my life a whole lot easier.  All those weird television shows will sure come in handy now. 
    After an hour or so of moving things around my room, I decided to take a break. 
    A thought came to my mind about changing my appearance.  If I can do that I can do just about anything.  I went into the bathroom and looked at my reflection.  I wondered what I could change.  Maybe my hair would look good blonde. 
    My hair color changed from deep brown to blonde right before my eyes and soon everything about me had changed in one way or another.  My eyes were bright blue with a slight gray tint. My skin was darker than normal. 
    This was completely unbelievable.  Just imagine the possibilities.  I could go anywhere I want to go and nobody would ever be the wiser.  No one would know me.               Now, knowing how to use that power could really come in handy.  I stood there looking in the mirror for a while experimenting with different facial attributes.  I soon got bored with the whole glamour power and changed myself back.
    I was feeling somewhat restless, so I decided to get dressed and go outside for a while. I looked around for my cell phone, but I couldn’t find it.  There is no telling where it is.  I was so sure that I had laid it on my bed, but it was nowhere to be found.  I looked over my room one last time before deciding to try and use my power to locate it.
    I closed my eyes and thought of my phone.  As soon as I finished the thought I could see my phone lying under the bottom corner of my bed.  I opened my eyes thinking to myself that there was absolutely no way that my phone could be there.  I bent down and reached under the bed and there it was. I felt a sense of pride in myself.  I could definitely do some good with the gifts I have been given.  There were several text messages on my phone. All of them where from Eric.  The first one caught me off guard.  I wasn’t expecting a reply from him after I had sent him the message calling him my angel.  I had no idea why I had called him that. Something just came over me and I did it without thinking. 
    Unfortunately, I couldn’t change it now.  I’m not sure I even would, to tell the truth.  The first mes sage read, Am I really your angel?   
    Yeah you are, I thought to myself.  I was seriously infatuated with him.
    I opened the next one.  It read. Goodnight, beautiful.   That one almost took my breath away.  The last one simply said, Dream of me.   
    I was shocked.  My heart felt like it was swollen and burning with a fire of a thousand suns.  Prickling feelings shot all over my skin, leaving behind goose bumps.  He really did like me.  Catching my breath, I headed to the back door and outside. 
    The sun was bright and warm on my skin.  It was certainly warm for this time of the morning.   I had picked my outfit perfectly, hoping that Eric might be outside.  As I noticed what time it was, the hope dwindled a bit.  It was way too early for a teenage guy to be out of bed.  At least he wasn’t going to be able to catch me experimenting around with the new powers I have.
    I had denim shorts, and a spaghetti strap top on.  I had brought a light sweater with me expecting the breeze to be cool.  I was totally wrong.  I left the sweater on the swing since I wasn’t going to need it.  I strolled around the yard trying to come up with ideas for practice. After a while of looking, I started to think there wasn’t going to be anything to do back here.  Nothing that wouldn’t draw attention from the neighbors anyway.
    I circled the small rose
