Okay, I'm not exactly giving up on AUP, but I just watched the season 1 finale, and this idea popped into my head. I had to write it. Enjoy!

Fabian POV

Amber pranced into the room, grinning from ear to ear. "I just spoke to Mr. Sweet!" She said. "And he said we are having another prom this year, but Mara and I have to organize it again." She turned to Nina, whom I'd just been talking to about the last task. "Nines, will you help?"

Nina shrugged, I could tell she didn't truly want to, but, she nodded. "Sure…"

I looked down at the floor, remembering the previous year. I'd been trying to ask Nina for ages, but we kept getting interrupted.

"Good morning!" Nina chirped.

"Uh, Nina, right, uh. I was wondering if…"I wanted to kick myself as I stuttered. Amber was right, I really was a stutter Rutter.

"Yes." Nina interjected.

"You didn't let me finish," I said.

"I can't risk us getting interrupted again," Nina said. At that moment, Patricia entered.

"Morning, guys!"

Nina gestured to Patricia. "See?"

"Wait, wait. But, now I don't know if you said yes to the thing I was going to ask. And you don't know if I was going to ask you the thing you thought I was going to ask you," I said, rambling on.

"What?" Nina said, confused.

"Do you ever make any sense?" Patricia asked, pouring herself some orange juice.

I smacked the table in frustration, turning to the gothic girl. "Patricia, could you go out of the room for a second, please?" I said, trying to stay calm. "There's something I have to ask Nina."

"Oh. Yeah, sure! No problem," Patricia said, finally getting it and walking out of the room.

I turned to Nina, who said, "Okay, now I need you to hurry before there's an earthquake, or a swarm of locusts, or anything else that will stop you from asking."

My heart was pounding, but I quickly choked out the words. "Nina, would you like to go to the prom with me?"

"Yes," Nina said quickly.

"Yes," I sighed, looking down. Then what she'd said registered. I looked up, my eyes wide. "Yes?"

Nina beamed. "Yes!"

My heart seemed to swell, and I tried to hide some of my excitement, but I don't think I did that great. "Yes!" I exclaimed.

I really wanted to ask Nina again, because I seriously still liked her. But, I just couldn't get the courage to do it. At that moment, Joy walked in, and I immediately looked back down at my book, not in the mood to listen to her sickening flirting and have no idea how to let her down easily.

Thankfully, then, Mara came in, asking for Joy to go to their room and talk about something. Nina got up and walked upstairs, though I don't know why.

Amber sat down next to me. "So, you're asking Nina to the prom again, right?"

I looked down, "I, uh- uh…"

Amber looked at me, knowingly. "Okay, it can't be as bad as Nina thinking you liked Patricia. Just ask her, we all know you still like her, just do it, Fabian!" she said, in her whiney Amber way.

"Shhh!" I shushed her. "Look, she dumped me, so obviously she doesn't like me anymore. She just wants to be friends."

Amber rolled her eyes. "Fabian, you are so blind. Like, seriously. Just…" She gave me one of her signature looks, the one that said, 'I know something you don't' and, 'I have a plan.' "Just leave it up to me!" She said. I'm pretty sure as she walked out, I heard her squeal "Fabina!"

Nina POV

I came back down the stairs, the picture of the zodiac in my hand. I'd just gone up to grab it, and as I was about to walk back into the living room, I heard Amber and Fabian talking. I know it isn't polite to spy, but, what they were saying caught my attention. I stood by the doorway, listening.

"…asking Nina to the prom again, right?" Amber chirped.

"I, uh…" Fabian stuttered.

"Okay, it can't be as bad as Nina believing you liked Patricia. Just ask her, we all know you still like her, just do it, Fabian!" Amber said.

My heart began to pound, but I tried not to get to excited. I knew I had dumped Fabian, and I hadn't really been the nicest to him, but he was so sweet! I didn't want to admit it, but I really did still like him! I can't believe how nice he was, he liked me that long? I couldn't believe it. Now I really wanted to tell him I still liked him, but I just couldn't. I couldn't.

Amber walked out of the room, running into me. "Oh, hey Nines!" she said, dragging me up the stairs and sitting me down on the bed. "So." She said, sitting across from me.

"So?" I said, looking at her, confused.

"You like Fabian still, do you not?"

"I-I…"

Amber grinned. "You do! I knew it!" She said. "So, you are going to the prom with him again, right?"

I looked down, despite what I'd just overheard, feeling insecure. "No."

"Why not?"

"Because, he's never going to ask me."

Amber smiled bigger. "But if he did, you would say yes, right?"

I blushed. "Yeah."

"Oh, yay!" Amber squealed. "I can arrange that!"

Amber POV

Aw, finally! Fabina can get back together again! I skipped back downstairs. Fabian gave me a questioning glance, but I just smiled. "You'll see!"

I sat, flipping through a magazine. Joy walked in, sauntering over to sit next to Fabian, but I glared at her. "Joy! Come here a moment, Joy!"

Joy glared back, walking over and sitting next to me. "What, Amber?" She hissed.

I gave her my best glare. "Do not try to disturb things with Fabina. You need to get over your obsession with Fabian, and keep your paws off. Your flirting makes me noxious, seriously. He's not interested," I hissed.

Joy glared at me. "You don't know that."

"Oh, don't I?" I hiss.

Joy got up, stalking over to Fabian and batting her eyelashes. "Hi, Fabes! What do you say about a picnic tomorrow at lunch?"

Fabian looked at me, naturally. I am his dating guru. I smiled at him. "Tell her no!" I hiss.

Fabian breathed deeply, and I hoped he didn't stutter. Every time he did, Joy thought he was nervous, when really he was too kind. He looked at Joy. "Look, Joy. I really like you, but only as friends. I don't like you that way; I still have feelings for Nina, okay?"

Joy breathed deeply, her mouth in a set line. I almost laughed. It really was hilarious. "Wow, Fabian. Dump your best friend for a girl you barely now," she growled, getting up.

Fabian seemed to get mad at that. I hadn't really seen him mad since last year at prom, when he'd screamed and tackled Rufus. That was so romantic, he was saving Nina. They are such a cute couple. "Look, Joy. You do know we were never dating? I don't like you like that, and I never have. I'm not dumping you, I still want to be your friend, but apparently you don't," He growled, jumping up and leaving the room before Joy.

Joy glared at me, and I grinned. "I told you!"

I jumped up, smiling and running to my room. I jumped on Nina's bed, making it shake. I squeal. "I told you! And, Fabian just admitted to Joy and the entire living room he still likes you, and told Joy they were never dating and that he didn't like her like that. You are totally in the clear!"

Nina smiled, but looked down. "That's great, Amber. But, he's still never going to ask me to the prom."

I thought to myself a moment. WWVBD? Then a brilliant plan began hatching in my mind. I squealed. "Not if I can help it!"

So, thoughts? Worth continuing? Please review! ~S~
