*Trudy`s POV*

I don`t understand it. He never mentioned Larissa before. Then he just said

"Trudy, you`re a sweet woman, but I have to be honest. There`s somebody else. I love you, yes. But I don`t love you like I love Larissa."

Then he just upped and left. I was feeling down anyway, because the Anubis students don`t come back yet, and Victor has left to go and live with Vera. Now, though, I have to live with a child and heartbreak. If only I could have known about it before my boyfriend left me. I may have been able to persuade him to stay, for the sake of his baby. I should`ve known he had a new woman. He stopped spending the nights with me, stopped calling and texting and he was away a lot. A loud knock at the door startled me out of my thoughts. I answered it and came face to face with a Jeremy Kyle look-a-like.

"Can I help you, sir?"

"May I come in?"

"Yes, of course."

I stood aside to let him in. He entered and said "Nice place you`ve got here."

"The old housemaster`s left, so you`re stuck with me. Though if it`s a big emergency, I can call Mr Sweet."

"No, no, Miss. It`s OK. You`re who I came to see."

"Excuse me?"

"Yes, I saw Jasper leave a few days back. And I felt bad that you were here alone. My name`s Rufus."

"I-I`m Trudy."

"I know you. You`re the pretty one that used to work The Treasures Of Egypt exhibition."

"Well, co-worked."

"You seem so sweet."

"I can say the same of you. I just don`t know how I`m going to cope. I found something out that could alter the future of Anubis House, as Victor`s gone and so has Jasper."

"What is it, Trudy?"

"A baby, that`s what. And it`s Jasper`s, but I didn`t know in time to tell him."

I was crying. He hugged me gently.

"Don`t worry. I`m here for you. We can raise it together. And no fear of him coming back."

"What?"

"I`m here, Trudy, and he won`t be back to break your fragile heart again, my darling."

I looked up at him, and we kissed, deeply and passionately.

So, Trudy and Rufus? Who else saw that coming? I didn`t. Please R&R, your reviews mean so much to me. This is a one-shot, so I don`t think I`ll be continuing it, but please tell me what you think. RandomDizzy. :D
