Living with a woman who just happened to be engaged to be married to Straw Buckett was not an easy gig, Kelly Evans was beginning to realise. While Straw had more or less lived at her apartment before Kat came back, and they rekindled their star-crossed romance and decided to get married, he had at least bought his own food, or had paid for take away. Now, though, he claimed everything. He ate her food, he used her wand to clean his ears and he did not put the toilet seat back down. It was frustrating for a neat freak such as Kelly Evans, and she was almost at her wits end.
Don't get the witch wrong, though. She loved Straw, he was like the older, annoying, filthy brother she never had. He had been her rock for a very long time, and she imagined that he would remain as such for a very long time. But her food was always gone, and while she had copious amounts of money at her disposal, though she prefered to use only the money she earned by hard work than by inheritance, Kelly did not like to spend lots of it on food not even eaten by her. More than once the witch had approached Straw on the subject, and more than once Straw had laughed her off as being too strict.
He'll see too strict when I curse his jaw closed, came the bitter thought as she recalled that particular encounter. Thus, Kelly Evans, a hard plastic basket trailing after her, apparently hovering through mid air, stalked through Wand Mart for the fourth time that week, looking for food that she knew Straw would not like, and so would not eat. She got hungry too, despite her wraith-like state lately. She got hungry, and when she opened her fridge, she wanted food to be in it. Not wrappers or empty containers that used to hold food. Real food. And she wanted it now.
