Hey everyone, this is my first ever fan-fic so please go easy with all the negativity and apart from that I will gladly accept any constructive criticism that people would want to give me. Also I don't really understand how uploading and titling stories work on here so any help with that will be greatly appreciate as well. Anywho enough babbling and onto the story. I hope you enjoy. NH
Furthermore I do not at all own Artemis Fowl or any other characters in this story, the right belongs to the respected Author E. Colfer
Chapter 1 - The Morning
It was a Sunday morning just at the stroke of 11am, since Artemis was working well into the night the previous day he neglected to close the curtains in his bedroom. Now since it was in the middle of summer the bright warming sunlight shone through the window and just catching Artemis' face.
Now slowly but surely Artemis rose from his slumber beginning to recollect his dream from the previous night. Once again he was dreaming of the beautiful, agile and quick witted elf named Holly Short. "Stupid puberty," Artemis muttered under his breath, "one day I will get a hold of my thoughts and stop with these incessant dreams. One it cannot physically happen, were two different species and the second is that she is nearly four times older than I am."
With a begrudging sigh Artemis soon got out of bed and slowly walked into his en-suite bathroom to perform his daily morning tasks or showering and brushing his teeth.
Now in the meantime Artemis' bodyguard who goes by the name of Butler was just finishing off his rounds through Fowl Manor. Now Butler wasn't technically Artemis' bodyguard since he had retired just last year but was begged to stay living in the manor by his young ex-charge but I suppose old habits die hard. Hearing the shower going off Artemis' room he began to relax himself and a small smile spread across his face, "I suppose I should go down to the kitchen now and prepare his breakfast."
As Butler strolled into the main kitchen/diner that the Fowl's owned he saw Mrs Fowl and her husband holding each other in a lovers embrace and giggling to themselves reminiscing of old times, well that was until Myles and Beckett both burst into the kitchen from the lounge area. Butler then began to think, 'Ha another start to a hectic day, bring it on.'
All the while this was happening downstairs, upstairs where Artemis was alone and just finishing drying himself off he noticed his fairy communicator was bleeping away. This small device was given to him by none other than his best friend Holly Short who was a Major in the Lower Elements Police Force, or LEP for short. At a slight jog he reached the communicator to answer the call before it cut off and he had to face the wrath of a feisty small fairy.
"Well good morning to you Miss Short," Artemis replied with his usual smug grin on his lips. "And what do I owe the pleasure of hearing your voice today?"
"Yeah, yeah snip it with your sarcastic ass comments Mud Boy. I was actually wondering if you would let me come over to the house for maybe a day or two you know. I actually have some time off work finally and well..." Holly's voice drifted off into nothingness, for it wasn't only Artemis that was having dreams of the other best friend. But thankfully this was no video call so little, well no so little Artemis could not see her face glowing bright red from blushing.
But before Holly could regain her wits, Artemis finished off what she was about to say, "So what you are trying to tell me Miss Short you have a brief period of leave from work and you would want to spend some of that time with your Human best friend, is that correct?" All Artemis could hear after that was a gigantic huff and he then started to laugh loudly.
"Well since I hit the nail on the head I suppose it would be okay for you to stay over, my parents have been wondering when you will be coming over next. It was been over six months since you have last stayed at the manor, also Juliet has been bugging me constantly about trying to get you to come over as well. Apparently she has a lot to talk to you about. So goodness knows what that would be about." He let himself have a slight chuckle to himself over the way that Juliet was badgering him just yesterday about how she missed the small elf's company and was starting to tire over Artemis' genius inventions or patents.
But all the way down in the Lower Elements Holly Short was laughing too. Even she could imagine what Artemis could have been going through with Juliet badgering him.
"Well tell her not to worry about it, I have just got to finish off two more days of work then I'll be on the earliest shuttle up the surface, so you better have a room ready for me okay. Not that I will use it straight away though, there is far too many things to see and people to talk to before I even get a chance to unpack."
Artemis slowly began to smile as he agreed with her and promised that Butler will have a room prepared for her by the time she will reach the surface and that he was looking forward to the weekend together. Finally after ending the call with a light-hearted goodbye and see you soon he began the preparations for Holly's weekend visit, and once again he could feel his cheeks going redder as he thought about it. 'Damn hormones, nothing is going to happen like that, I mean seriously. Nothing could ever happen between us. Could it?'
Well I hope you have enjoyed the first chapter and hopefully with your support there will be more to come. I know that there will be grammatical errors so please bear with me with that as well, even if English is my first language I can be pretty terrible at writing. But again thank you for taking your time to read this Fan-Fic. NH
