Hello everyone!
This is my first FAMOUS FIVE fanfic, so I don't know if you would like it... so please review (no flames please)!
" text in double quotes are people speaking "
' text in single quotes are thoughts'
A sudden jerk woke Julian from his daydreams. He was sitting in the train compartment, waiting to meet his siblings. It had been two years since he joined St. Petersburg University, and this was the first time he had actually come home. He got up and took his suitcases off the train. He looked around and saw that there weren't many people in the station.
...
"Hey Ju! " Dick's voice broke his train of thoughts. "Over here Julian!" Shouted Anne. Julian turned and smiled at his siblings. He was now a grown boy and was very happy to see his family. Aunt Fanny and Uncle Quentin too were there. He smiled and went towards them.
"It's been so long Aunt Fanny, Uncle Quentin. " Julian said as he was hugged by his Aunt. A lot of quick exchanges happened.
"Charl!" Shouted a small girl. Julian turned to look at her. She wore a small pink woolen coat with a creme beret on her short, wavy black hair. A woman with similar black hair hushed her. "Don't be so loud Marie." Said a tall blond man. He was heavily-built and had a stern expression on his face. "Now, now Ralph.. don't be irritated, we were late to arrive here.. poor Lotte must be looking for us! " the woman said. The Five immediately liked her and we're amused by the queer family.
Aunt Fanny went up to them, " Good afternoon, I am Fanny Kirrin. That is my husband, Prof. Quentin Kirrin. These are my children. I have lived here long but I have not seen you here.. are you new? " the woman smiled, "Yes, we are living near the Kirrin Cottage. We just shifted there last month. I am Clare Smith and that's my husband, Prof. Raphael. This is my daughter, Marie-Ann Smith. We were waiting for our niece. It will be her first holidays with us in a place other than London.." Clare smiled. She was likeable indeed.
"Aunt Clare! Uncle Ralph! Ann! How are you all?!" A girl with peach-brown hair shouted. She quickly ran towards them and was tackled into a hug by Marie-Ann. She laughed, " Auntie , you said that you hadn't seen the neighbours yet. But you have already made friends. And Uncle, you seem very happy! Is it because of me or your new friends? Ann, get off me, please!" She was a unique girl Anne noticed. She wore a hooded jacket and a woolen skirt. She had a scarf which held her unnatural coloured hair in place. Anne went and helped her up. She smiled and said, " Thank you! I am Charlotte Smith, but everyone calls me Charl. Only my Aunt and Uncle call me Lotte." Anne couldn't help but like Charlotte, " I am Anne, and those are my brothers - Julian and Dick. That is my cousin Georgina, but she likes to be called George. We are neighbours it seems." Dick smiled and asked, " If you are coming here from London then you must have seen my brother! Ju, do you remember her?" Julian looked thoughtful, "Wait you're the guy who sat opposite me in the Paddington train! So your name is Julian.. well nice to meet you!" Charlotte said.
...
"So.. Ju, you had been staring at Charlotte a lot, you know.. maybe.." Dick started with a sly grin. "Stop it, Dick! I was not staring!" Julian retorted. Aunt Fanny laughed. " But no matter what you say, they are quite an attractive family. The husband's a scientist and Quentin seems to like him too! Clare is quite a dear and her daughter is most interesting! But the niece- Charlotte, oh my, such a pretty thing! Her eyes were such a beautiful blue.. If you stare at them you would feel like as if you were drowning in clear sea water." " And her hair was so pretty! What a different colour - a peachy- brown! And she has such a great personality. Oh I like her lots! " Anne said. " Well, why don't we have a nice tea- time party?" George said. " Let's invite them over.. We can have tea in the garden and it will be fun!" "George, this is the first time you wanted someone to come over! "Aunt Fanny exclaimed. " I liked that Charlotte, and even Marie-Ann and Mrs. Smith. Even Timmy did. So, why not?" Julian laughed, "Good old George! "
...
"Hey Charl! " Julian called out. Luckily, Julian's windows was just opposite that of Charl's. " Yes Julian! " Charl answered. Julian grinned. " Well, we were planning to ask you and your family to come over for tea tomorrow. What do you say? " Charlotte sat on the windowsill, " We would love to! But please let us help you out too! Say, shall me and my Aunt come over early so that we can help.. maybe at three!? " Julian smiled, ' Seeing her before tea is better! ' "Okay!" Charl smiled and said bye to Julian, and ran down to say her Aunt of her conversation with Julian. Julian too did the same.
So.. that's all for chapter one. I know that a few things are changed in the fanfic. And nothing mentioned here (by me) exists in real life.
Bye bye! Please review!
