*Nina*
I walked into the doors of Anubis house, all the memories of last year flooded through my mind, the good and the bad. I looked down to see on my right hand a beautiful silver ring my Gran had given to me minutes before her death. She said the cup of Ankh was not the only mystery in this house. I was shocked at first when I found out that she knew of what happened last year. After a minute it became crystal clear, for she was the one who pushed me to apply to this school. Heck, she's the one who found it in the first place! She then handed me a letter from my mother, Laura Martin. The only problem was that it wasn't in English. To be honest, I was grateful for that, I was afraid of what it would say. If my Gran knew I was the chosen one imagine what my own mom would know. I wanted to wait for Fabian to help me decipher it and I needed to tell him something about Jerome. I heard my name and was soon hugged by no other than Trudy.
"Oh, Nina dear you look so different!" Trudy exclaimed as she checked my out. I had changed a lot over the course of two weeks. My hair was shoulder length with a slight curl at the end and I had side sweep bangs. "I meant that as a good thing. Trying to impress a certain someone, eh?" she said studying my face.
Those words made me blush and stutter, "N-nn-oo, just needed a change." With that her face changed instantly to sorrow.
"I heard about your grandmother, and I'm soooo sorry." she started tearing up.
"Trudy, its okay it was just her time to go." I said, my voice cracking just the slightest.
"That's such a nice way of looking at it, is just so sad. You've been thpurgh so much." Trudy said pulling herself together thankfully.
"I'm not completely alone." I reminded her. "I have you, my friends here, and Mason. Anyway are the arrangements the same?"
"Yes they are you and Amber are sharing a room, and so is Patricia and Mara." So no Joy I thought, well that brightens my chances of getting Fabian. "You should know that Victor has retired and I'm in charge." she sighed at Victors name and continued. "Apparently he became rather ill the 2 weeks everyone left."
"Well that's sad." Not really I thought to myself. "So, who else is here?" I asked hopeful that Fabian was here. Fingers crossed, I took a deep breath and prayed for the best.
"Fabian and Jerome!" Trudy caught on quick. "He is in his room deary." she winked at me and left to do some laundry.
With that I dropped my stuff off in my room, which was bare, I stopped myself from hyperventilating. It was only two weeks since I last saw him, he couldn't have changed much. But I did what if he doesn't like this Nina. I pushed that nightmare out of my mind. I kissed him first so it was his move now, right? If he mans up we'll have two weeks of pure bliss until the others get here. But if he doesn't things will get awkward really fast. I took a breath and inch closer to Fabians room trying not to seem too eager.
