Okay, before I start the story I would like to say that I am not posting a full summary inside. I want to keep the plot a little bit of a mystery. I will try to update as soon as possible, but cannot guarantee that I will be able to post a new chapter every day. I am constantly busy with school, family, friends, etc.

I do not own House of Anubis. I am just a crazed fan! (:


Fabian walked with me to my locker. "I'm going to put my books away, I'll be right back." He said, kissing my cheek. I nodded and put my French books back into my locker. Fabian was back in an instant. He held my hand, and we talked about the school day.

"So, what should we do as our topic on Ancient Greece?" Fabian asked. I tried to think of an idea. Jason had assigned us an important project on Ancient Greece due in three weeks. "Um, maybe a god or a goddess? The Greeks had created an entire mythology." I suggested.

He nodded, and then we walked in silence. The moment seemed, so awkward. Finally, when we were back at the house I broke the silence. "Do you want to do homework together?" He asked. I remembered that Amber had asked me if I wanted to go shopping after school.

"Well, I already said yes to Amber..." I explained. "Oh, that's okay." He said, walking to his room. I walked into the living room, where everybody was talking and doing homework together. "Nina!" Amber ran up to me as I was getting a water bottle from the refrigerator.

"Yeah?" I asked, taking a sip from the water bottle. I put the cap back on and put it on the counter. "How about we leave at six, right after supper?" She said. "Okay," I said, remembering Fabian's offer. Amber went back into the living room and started talking to Patricia about Victoria Beckham.

I grabbed the water bottle and walked down the hall to Fabian's room. I knocked softly on the door. "Nina?" He asked, opening the door. "Amber said we're going to leave after supper, so, we can spend some time together." I said.

He smiled, and got out the Algebra assignment. I opened my bag and got out my Algebra assignment. We both did the work for the first problem, and then compared our answers. The time went by quickly, and we were already almost done with our work.

While putting away my Biology essay, I knocked my backpack and purse onto the floor. All of my books and personal belongings spilled onto the floor. I blushed a bright red, and picked everything up and put it away. Fabian helped me.

He smiled at me. I smiled back, and he leaned in and kissed me. It felt as if sparks began to fly in the air. Then, there was a loud pounding on the door, interrupting our perfect kiss. Fabian pulled away from me. I frowned, and walked over to the door with him. "Trudy told me to tell you it's time for supper." Amber said.

"Oh, okay. We'll be right there." Fabian said, getting my things from off his bed. "Thanks," I mumbled, dropping everything off in my room. Amber followed me. "You two are so perfect for each other!" She squealed. I felt my cheeks beginning to burn.

We heard someone calling from downstairs, it was Trudy. We both walked downstairs and into the kitchen. Everybody was sitting at the dining room table. Fabian had reserved me a seat; he could be such a gentleman at times.

I sat down. He wrapped his arm around me. Jerome and Alfie started to make kissy faces at us. Everybody began to laugh. I rolled my eyes at the two; they could be so immature at times. Trudy came into the room holding a large, steaming pot.

My stomach growled quietly. I had barely eaten anything for lunch. I placed a large portion of spaghetti on my plate. I felt like gobbling the entire thing down in one bite, but then Fabian would think I was a sloppy, un-mannered pig. I ate slowly.

"Nina, a brand new Aeropostale opened in town! We should so go there later." Amber said, excitedly. I nodded, taking a sip of my Coke. "Joy texted me earlier, she said she is coming back to school tomorrow!" Patricia announced. She seemed, Amber-level happy. This was the first time I had ever seen her this way.

"Is she coming back here to the Anubis house?" Mara asked. "No, she said she will be staying at the Ra house though." Patricia replied, disappointedly. She and Joy must have been really close. I finished eating, and took a quick glance at the clock. 6:15.

Amber got up and put her dishes in the sink. I followed her, and then slipped on my shoes in the Main Hallway. I went upstairs and grabbed a light jacket, it wasn't too cold outside earlier. I also grabbed my purse from off my bed.

Trudy waved goodbye to us, handing Amber a twenty dollar bill. We both thanked her, and walked outside. It had gotten a little windier outside, but it wasn't cold. Amber and I walked to the large iron gates in the front of the school. Memories of my first day here began to fill my mind. We crossed Main St. Wow, what a creative name for a street!

The small, average, English town looked very similar to that of an American one. There were many shops, cars, buses, and pedestrians walking along the sidewalk. Aromas from deli's and bakeries filled the air. We passed a small park with a large fountain and a couple of benches around it. Amber had to lead me to the Aeropostale store; I had never really been outside of the school grounds before.

We passed a small toy store, and then there was an Aeropostale store in sight. Amber's phone began to ring; she took it out of her purse and answered. "Hi dad," She said. "I'm shopping with my friend, Nina." "No, she just came to the school like, eight months ago."

We finally approached the store. "I have to go daddy, bye." She said, giving him a goodbye kiss into the phone. She put her phone away. "Sorry about that, my dad called." She apologized. "Its fine," I said, scanning through the pink tank tops. I was never really crazy for pink, I preferred purple, but hot pink wasn't too bad.

Amber grabbed a hot pink tank top from the rack, and put it over herself. She posed in the mirror, fixing her hair. I noticed pairs of skinny jeans a few feet down. I went to check them out. "Nina, wait up!" Amber ran up to follow me.

I scanned the tags for a pair in my size, and found one. I draped it over my arm, and looked for Amber. I found her looking at scarves, there was a two for one sale. I couldn't stand scarves; they always felt like they were trying to suffocate me.

I found a few tops and leggings and went to the counter to pay. I handed the cashier the twenty that Trudy had given us. "Have a good night." The lady said with a smile, handing me my bag. Amber was buying her clothes. I waited at the front door for her.

"That was so fun!" Amber piped up. She definitely got excited easily. We passed a small pretzel shop. Even after having a large dinner, my stomach still growled a little. "Pretzels?" I asked. She nodded and we both ordered a regular pretzel. The pretzels were good; they reminded me of the pretzels back home at the mall.

We walked back home, talking about shoes. Amber told me her father had bought her Uggs for her birthday, and she was so excited. She had always wanted a pair of Ugg boots. I had an old pair that I always used to wear during the winter. Now, I only wear them occasionally.

We arrived back at the school in a matter of minutes. It was starting to get dark out, the sun had set already. Victor would be angry if we arrived home very late. We finally arrived back at the house, and opened the door inside.

Jerome and Alfie were on cleaning duty, and they were in a full-out soapy water war. Patricia and Mick joined in, and then Fabian got splashed. He dumped a handful of soapy water over Jerome's head, soaking his hair.

Mick aimed for Mara, but missed, and hit Amber. "Mick!" Amber shrieked. She had told me earlier that she had gotten her hair done yesterday. "Oh, Ams, I'm sorry. I meant to hit…" Mick apologized. Amber just stormed upstairs angrily.

Everybody stopped after that. Fabian sat down next to me on the couch, wrapping his arms around me. The sleeves of his shirt were soaking wet with water. He shook his soaking wet hair like a puppy. I laughed, and covered my face as the water droplets hit me.

Trudy came downstairs to see why Amber had become so upset. "Oh my!" She said her mouth gaping open as she stared at the messy kitchen. Alfie and Jerome failed to wash any of the dishes, and just made the kitchen even messier.

Amber came back downstairs, her hair in a high ponytail. She ignored Mick, and sat down next to Alfie. Ever since the winter End of Year dance (referring to the fact that it was the week before winter break, celebrating New Year's Eve), the two had become more of a boyfriend and girlfriend, along with Fabian and I. Mara had dumped Mick and started to fall for Jerome. The two were now happily together.

Mara had her nose buried in a book. Trudy told Alfie and Jerome to clean up the kitchen or else they were grounded for the week. Mick couldn't stand any more of Amber's angry glares, so he went to his room. Patricia was busily texting Joy.

Fabian tapped my shoulder. I looked at him. "Want to go start our Ancient Greece project?" He asked. I nodded, and we walked upstairs to my room. I got my laptop off of the desk and turned it on. "What should our topic be?" He asked.

I thought for a moment, there were so many possibilities. Jason had made this project very open-ended, which was a good thing, and also a bad thing, because it would be difficult to chose a topic. "Should we do a god or goddess, or should we do something like, the Trojan War?" I asked.

"How about we do that, the Trojan War? We could make a model of the Trojan horse, write a narrative about what it was like to be a soldier inside the Trojan horse, and compose a report on the Trojan War, too." Fabian said. That sounded like a great idea.

"Okay, we should do that." I said, typing Trojan War into the search bar of Google. I scanned the websites that popped up, searching for a reliable source. Fabian and I spent the rest of the night researching facts about the Trojan War and Trojan horse. We copied down notes and the URLs to the sites we used on Microsoft Word.

At a quarter to ten, Victor made Fabian go back to his room. I got changed into shorts and a t-shirt, and walked into the bathroom to brush my teeth. Amber was finishing brushing her hair; she had taken a shower, to get the water out of her hair… which didn't really make any sense.

"Wait, Amber, why did you take a shower?" I asked, confused. "Because Mick splashed soapy water all over me." She mumbled. "But, why would you wash water out of your hair?" I asked, still confused. Amber finally realized what I meant. "Oh, I don't know. I guess I… didn't think it out." She said, embarrassed.

I finished brushing my teeth and getting ready to go to sleep. Victor yelled from downstairs. "It is ten o'clock, you have five minutes, and then I want to hear a pin drop!" I sighed and walked back into my room. Amber turned her lamp off and closed her eyes. I climbed under my covers, flipped the switch on my lamp, and fell asleep.


I hope you like it so far. Please be sure to review, and give me some constructive criticism. That always helps! I will try to write and post the next chapter as soon as possible, but no promises that it will be up tomorrow, really sorry!
