Wyatt's POV
Piper: At least your cake made it to the end.
Mom laughed as she cleaned up the dining room table after the birthday party she just threw for me.
Piper: Chris's caught fire.
Wyatt: Yeah, thanks to Jason.
I turned to see Chris, Sam, and Jason talking in the conservatory. Mom chuckled before taking the used paper plates into the kitchen. I walked into the conservatory to join Chris and his friends.
Wyatt: Hey, thanks for the gifts, guys. Baseball? Funny, Sam.
Sam smiled and shrugged.
Sam: I thought you could learn. Come to me if you need help.
Wyatt: Yeah, I'll think about it.
Jason: I'd better get going. Thanks for inviting me, Wyatt. Oh ...
Jason walked up to me. I backed up a little, not knowing what he's going to do. Jason rolled his eyes before whispering to me.
Jason: Calm down, I was just going to say I'm glad I didn't set fire to your cake.
I smiled and nodded before slapping his shoulder.
Wyatt: Yeah, thanks.
Jason waved at Chris and Sam before heading toward the door, saying "hi" to someone on his way out. I raised an eyebrow and moved to see Jason leaving the house and his uncle coming in. John quickly walked through the dining room and into the kitchen. Chris, Sam, and I watched his movement the whole way.
Sam: Was that Jason's uncle?
Chris nodded.
Sam: He knows your Mom's married right?
Chris scrunched up his face in disgust while I scoffed.
Sam: I'm just asking.
Chris: He's a family friend.
Sam raised an eyebrow.
Sam: Since when?
Chris shrugged as he stood and picked up a few used paper cups.
Chris: Since December.
Sam: Why?
Wyatt: You ask too many questions. Just leave it at that.
Sam stared at me before nodding and crossing his arms.
Sam: Fine.
Piper's POV
Phoebe: That went well.
I nodded as I threw away the paper plates.
Piper: Yeah, his cake didn't catch fire.
Phoebe laughed as she put the unused napkins back in the kitchen cabinet.
Phoebe: Now that we know the cause, it's kind of funny.
Piper: Yeah. Starting a $20 ice cream cake on fire, hilarious.
Phoebe nodded as John quickly walked into the kitchen.
Piper: Woah. What's up?
John started speaking, a little out of breath.
John: The Elemental leader, he said that shift in the climate is happening soon. He had a vision. We have to do that ritual as soon as possible.
