"Bena" I need your help."

Samantha set down the printed copy of Marc Franco's blog and lifted her amber eyes to her twin and partner in crime, Serena. If there was anyone that could help Sugar, it would be Spice.

Sam wasn't nearly as na've as most thought. It was just that she preferred to see the good in people. Rose colored glasses could have been invented by the blonde witch. Seeing so many things about Darren over the past couple of weeks finally had her thinking a change was in order. The biggest question had been just what to do.

She knew the technicalities of flirting, even if she couldn't get a handle on the nuances and intricacies. That was where her sister was to come in. The twins were both capable of a number of spells; ranging from small and cute to a rather impressive display of darker magics. Yet neither was capable of producing major changes within themselves. Gramma had said it was a way the fates kept their kind from maliciously deceiving others.

Deceit, however, was not Samantha's intent. It wasn't revenge, it wasn't justice. She wasn't even sure she could call it a lesson.

"Spice" I need to you make me a flirt for one night. I just have to understand why Darren does it." Sam carefully watched Serena's expression, after all, Serena didn't like to use her magic...

"Look at my butt in these! It looks fantastic!"

Clad just in a sports bra and a tight pair of worn blue jeans she had just bought that morning in the Marketplace, Serena was turned to the side in the full length mirror hanging on the back of Sam's closet door, carefully inspecting her profile. Vain" Perhaps a bit. However, her pride in her own form stemmed more from the sense of accomplishment of the product of her many hours of working on her physique by jogging, aerobic exercises in a gym, martial arts, and most recently surfing.

Sam's silence drew her dark eyes towards her fraternal twin. The stern look on Sam's face convinced her that there was no way to brush past the issue. Darren. She just couldn't believe her sister was dating much less that a man who had earn Sam's affections would even think about looking at anyone else.

Even before she had turned around, Serena had known she would eventually say yes. She simply could not deny her twin. Therefore, finally Serena nodded her acknowledgment, heaving a heavy exhale.

"Do you have a plan, Sammy?"
