Magic or Emotion?

Magic or Emotion? is the third posted story in The Adventures Of Lili And Austin.

Plot
The story opens with Lili on the phone to Austin, complaining of "having a feeling", at two o'clock in the morning. While annoyed and more than a little dubious, Austin meets up with Lili outside her house and the two head to Flare Forsyth's house, bickering about the source of the angry feeling, which is starting to become painful for Lili.

After a short debacle involving the two teenagers trying to get through the gate to Flare's mansion, Flare asks Lili some questions to try and figure out what the feeling is and why she has it.

It is revealed soon after that Lili went out with Decima the day before and the two had ended up kissing, to Austin's shock and horror. Flare deduces that Lili has the rare power of empathy, which is triggered by kissing. Therefore, it is Decima's anger that she is feeling.

Lili leaves the room to phone Decima, who unknowingly confirms this by saying that she has just uncovered an old friend's betrayal and is therefore extremely angry. Lili offers to talk with her about it when she gets home, then goes back in to say goodbye to Flare. Austin coldly tells Lili to go home without him, as he is going to stay there for the night, so a hurt Lili leaves alone, not knowing why Austin is so upset with her.
