Hello lovely readers! I'm back with my second fanfic ever! I hope you guys will enjoy it, thanks for reading my stuff again if you read my last story, and if not thanks for giving it a chance now, feel free to read my other story if you want too! I so appreciate all the support and I can't wait to see where this story goes!
Oh and heads up, if you didn't read my last fanfic, Peddie has twins, Paige and Eli, short for Elijah; Peddie also got married. And then Nina and Fabian have a daughter, Kristen she's part of the reason Nina stayed away from Anubis (think season 3), but Nina gave her up for adoption and her adoptive father never really wanted Nina involved in her life, this whole situation is pretty mysterious though. Again, read Peddie's Prom Predicament for more details.
Disclaimer: I do not own House of Anubis, just my story lines.

Patricia's POV
Even through the difficulties of teen parenthood and an early marriage, I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. Between family and friends, we'd had the most amazing support group and still do. Now I have my own perfect…okay mostly perfect life and family.
"Paige come on! The cab's here and Dad and I will be late for our parent orientation meeting if you don't hurry up!" I yelled up the stairs to my second-born, then turned to Eddie muttering, "I never spent this much time getting ready, sometimes I swear we're not even related."
"Oh puh-lease. If we left in 20 minutes we'd still get there on time." Paige snapped, looking at her watch before rolling her eyes and stomping down the stairs.
"Not related, huh Mum?" Eli asked, chuckling.
Paige glared at him, "What are you laughing at creep?"
"Yep definitely you're daughter." Eddie agreed with his oldest, smirking and receiving a high five.
"Whatever Slimeball." I retorted, giving him my infamous look of disgust.
"Even the same facial expressions." Evan, my nine year-old, jumped in.
"Evan Colin Miller!" I scolded, realizing his striking resemblance to myself.
"It must be from those lovely eyes my mother and sister both have." He faked looking to his dad and brother for support.
Paige looked unamused and crossed her arms, "Suck up." Evan stuck out his tongue. "Don't be such a child," she said in return, trying to sound mature.
I looked at my watch, "We need to get a move on, now where's…" I turned around to see my purse in the lap of my lipstick faced two year old.
"Wook I gwamma now!" She squealed with delight. The rest of us laughed.
"Not quite Pey," Eddie said lifting his little clone, Peyton Nicole, from the ground and handing me my purse. "Grandma's gonna have to clean you up though when you get there though."
Eddie's POV
After dropping Peyton off with my mom, we travelled for about an hour to our, mine and Patricia's old school. Even with all the craziness we dealt with while we were students there, that place was what had made us, us, and we knew that our children should have the opportunities that we did, to come into their own. Although hopefully they won't make quite the same choices, I thought, not that I didn't love my life, but my children will understand their boundaries…very clearly. "Just remember no one ends up pregnant or gets someone pregnant…kapeesh!" I reminded.
Patricia laughed as the twins chorused "Daaad."
"He's right though," Patricia tried to agree.
"Mother we're fine. I swear!" Paige grumbled.
"Yeah besides it's not like either of us have exactly dated anyone…ever." Eli added.
"We know and we trust you two very much…right Eddie?"
"Yeah mm-hm." I nodded, slightly sarcastically.
My wife rolled her eyes, "now if anything weird happens…"
"Call you…we know!" the twins grouched. And they did know…somewhat, they knew about us being involved in the mysteries, they loved the stories…the ones they only partially understood. We told them that people might recognize their last name and that they should watch out for Rufus, Vera, and Denby-like characters because of how those three in particular had things to hide but it was better not to find out. They knew about the kidnappings and rescues, but they didn't know muchabout Sibuna or the specifics of the dangers we dealt with.
"Here we are!" announced the cab driver. I paid and tipped him and we all stepped out, looking up at the school. It's kinda good to be back, I reminisced, grabbing Patricia's hand.
"Ah, the Miller family," I heard my dad's voice. "so glad you're here."
"Dad." I smiled.
"Grandpa!" Paige and Eli ran over to hug him.
"Oh good, you're not afraid to be seen with me," he semi-joked giddily. "You know, your dad wouldn't tell anyone he was my son when he first came, then your mom told the whole school…"
Here we go…I chuckled with Patricia as we followed behind them.
We made our way to the check-in table inside. "Laney, these are my grandchildren…would you mind helping them get their housing assignments?" Dad introduced.
"Sure, I'm Laney! This is my second year here, I'll be a ninth grader" The somehow familiar-looking girl said to the twins.
"Hey! I'm Paige!" Paige greeted, then turned to Eli, expecting him to introduce himself…crickets. "And umm, this is my twin brother, ELI!" she informed the girl, shouting his name in an attempt to get his attention.
"Oh, uhh yeah, we're 8th graders…" he finally spoke, clearly enamored with the girl. Great, we've been here five minutes and he's already looking.
"Cool, so last name?" Laney asked.
"Miller." Eli blurted, trying to deepen his voice.
"Hey you guys are in Anubis too! Wow, usually it's hard too get into!" exclaimed Laney, after flipping through the packets on the table in front of her. Too?...no way, this girl is going to be too close to my son for my liking.
I stepped forward, but Patricia pushed me back, as she went first. "Anubis, there must be a mistake."
"No not a mistake," my dad interjected, we had all forgotten he was still here. "I thought it would be neat for the kids to feel connected to you two, now I'd best be going to get ready for my presentation for all you parents, I'll catch up with you in a bit."
"But…" Patricia started, her eyes bugging out of her head in worry, she looked at me as though I was supposed to help; I didn't know what to do.
"Mom, chill. Now we'll get to see if Anubis house is as awesome as you say it used to be, now you stay here and go to your little parent thing." Eli ordered to his speechless mother. Paige bit her lip trying not to burst out laughing, partially at mine and Patricia's faces, partially at her brother's attempt to seem cool.
The three kids sauntered off together, towards the door. "So you're American, Laney?" Eli, now confidently, questioned.
We have got to do something about this. I panicked, dragging Patricia as I began following them.
Okay, so I hope you enjoyed the first chapter, mostly background, kind of boring I know! But who is Laney anyway (sorry but that one's rhetorical because I have big plans for her!)? Is Mr. Sweet up to something? It will get better soon I promise; next chapter will have a little Peddie romance and Nina stuff too! Also, I have a few ideas for the mystery, like maybe including the last tears of gold from the end of Season Two, I think I've got some Osirian/Chosen One ideas too but this fic for sure needs an adventure, so pretty please help me out with some suggestions! I can't decide what kinds of jobs/professions the original Anubis House residents should have either, so suggestions would be appreciated for that too! Thanks so much my wonderful readers 3
