This just came randomly to me, really. I was rewatching the HOA episodes and then decided to make a fanfic where Eddie lies to Fabian about the summer fling thing. Hope you like it!

Disclaimer: I don't own anything but the plot and OC's


Fabian:

There was a connection forming between the Chosen One and the Osirian.

Ever since Nina decided to return to the house after the one year leave of absence, it was clear that she and Eddie have that link that even I cannot match up to. And it was very painful for me to see the woman I love talking to another man about her problems. Joy, Amber, and Patricia did try their best to assure me that nothing at all was going on between them but I had a feeling. I had the worst feeling.

It was after curfew when I noticed my roommate sneaking out. I have been very sensitive to my senses after all these years so even the slightest sounds attract my attention. And I narrowed my eyes at him, my hands in fists as I sneaked around just to follow him. If I find out that their not-so summer fling was actually real and that they were going to continue that secret romance in this house, I will get my revenge.

Eddie headed over towards the attic where Nina and I used to spend our time together. That was before he came, when everyone was happy and excited about the mystery.

I had to wait until the door at the top of the staircase was closed before rushing over there, not even bothering to open it because I knew they will catch me. And right now, I didn't want my girlfriend to think that I was stalking her.

There were muffled voices coming from the other side of the wooden barrier, one that sounded so much like my Nina's. But I have my doubts. I can always be wrong and I don't want to jump into conclusions so suddenly.

A man was whispering and I pressed my ear closer to the door to hear the conversation better. This wouldn't benefit me, I know it won't. I just want to know if my suspicions were true or that I was just hallucinating.

"Nina." He said, "You know we can't. Fabian would never forgive me." My heart clenched at how he managed to mention my name when they were going behind my back like that. A side of me wanted to run like the coward that I am but another part wanted to rip his head off right then and there.

She just giggled. "He won't find out. You're good, Eddie. I bet he's just asleep again. It's already been a month since we've been doing this and look at how far we are."

I had tears running down my cheeks. She never cared about me after all. She took me for granted and used me to get the attention of all my friends. And now that she's popular, she doesn't need me anymore. I just never realized that I was a mere pawn, a toy for her to play with.

And that was when my insides started to burn, an intense heat flooding my system and waking up every single muscle and bone that it made me feel as if I could lift a pick-up truck. I looked at my hands and saw them glowing, the fire growing brighter and brighter by the minute before it encased me in comfortable warmth.

I have honestly never felt better in my life.

With my new found strength, I jumped from where I was down to the floor, causing the ground to shake violently and a smile to grace my lips. My mother has been lying to me. She never told me that I was more powerful than Eddie or Nina would ever be.

My feet brought me to the end of the hallway where I know Patricia shared her room with Joy and KT. But I was only there for one of them, the one who has been hurting as much as I was ever since the start of their break-up, the one who I've had feelings for when I was a kid and still cared for very much until now. I kneeled over towards one of my best friends, sleeping peacefully until she opened her eyes to meet mine.

She gasped, sitting up fully. "Fabian?" she questioned, her hand unconsciously moving to my face. "Fabian, you're eyes. They're… gold."

Somehow, I found the idea funny. It only took me a few minutes to realize my true parentage. I now know who my father really was after so many years of suffering under an abusive stepdad who only cared for my family's wealth. "Patricia, come with me." I offered, holding out my hand.

The beautiful person in front of me cocked her head to the right. "What? Why? Where are you going?"

I just smiled, brushing the strands of her hair from those captivating gray eyes. "I'm taking you somewhere far away, where they or anyone else won't hurt you again. I swear to all the gods out there, known and unknown, that I will protect you. You're going to be safe with me."

Her cheeks were wet from her tears but she nodded, already making her way to her backpack and packing up the necessities. I even found the time to do those things myself, my laptop secure under all of my clothes and my guitar in its case. She took my outstretched hand, her bag slung over her shoulder. "What about Victor? Trudy? The others? They'll notice it when we leave."

"Don't worry about it, love." I whispered to her ear, placing a soft kiss on the top of her head. She blushed, "I have it all taken care of. The only thing you have to worry about is spending your time with me."

She just laughed, any signs of her crying long gone. And I placed both of my hands on her cheeks, my lips pressed insistently on hers. And she sighed happily, moving them to match with how I'm moving mine. "Come now" I told her. "The longer we stay here, the sadder you get and I don't want that to happen."

I directed her towards my precious BMW convertible, never letting go of her hand as I helped her climb in. "I'm going to take care of you, Patricia Williamson. I promise that I'm going to love you like you are supposed to be loved. You don't have to worry about people like Eddie ever again."

We sealed the agreement with a passionate, yet very sincere kiss. And I started the car, smiling when I heard the engine humming quietly.

It was my quest now to search for a new place to stay, a new place to start over. As the son of Ra and her lover, I will protect her from danger.

Amber:

I woke up that morning sweating. Being the person that I am, I extremely dislike sweating because it gives me a foul odor to deal with for the rest of the day. From below, I could hear nervous mutterings and quiet arguments that probably involved another one of Alfie and Jerome's pranks. To my surprise, my best friends was sobbing on her bed, saying things about how she made things worse and that she never deserved him in the first place.

Seeing that I would never return to my beauty sleep now, I headed over to Nina. "What's wrong?"

"Fabian's gone." She moaned painfully.

It took me a while to let the fact sink in, not really realizing the horror in the situation until I finally did. "What? How is that possible? Was he taken? Kidnapped? Did he leave?"

The last one wasn't very realistic seeing that Anubis house was his home ever since he was 11. Patricia, Joy, Mick, Alfie, Jerome, Mara, and I grew up with him. And as much as I hate to admit it, the first two options were the most possible. Instead of giving me a proper answer, she handed me a letter written in his neat handwriting.

Dear friends,

By the time you read this, Patricia and I would be halfway across the country and probably already settled in a new place. I know that this is a very abrupt decision and I should have consulted with you first but it has been very hard for us ever since Nina came back. Just last night I have realized that all of my previous suspicions were true and it ignited a part of me and it made me realize how useless staying is. There are already people there to replace us so it wouldn't be any problem.

I suggest that you don't try to contact either of us in any way because it would only bring you memories of the past and maybe some hope in the future. But, after finding my new heritage, I have learned to let go and move on. This is the last time you are going to hear from me and the last time you are going to hear from her. And if ever you do see us someday, we won't hesitate to greet you again and thank you for making us so much stronger than we are. Please do not blame Nina or Eddie for this. They didn't mean to betray us. Love is just painful that way and I wish that you would just forget about us.

Joy, I am very sorry for leaving you like this. You don't deserve it but it was the only thing I could do and I had to take Patricia as far away from that house as possible. Maybe, if I have the time and the self control, I'll come back for you and bring you with me. Amber, take care of Nina for me and don't stop being yourself because you are absolutely perfect the way you are. Jerome and Alfie, it was both of you who made me laugh and got me annoyed at the same time. I wish that you would never change but at least learn to grow up even a little. Mara, thank you for keeping us company whenever people tend to ignore and disappoint us. You are a very strong and very intelligent person and you can take up whatever the world is giving you. KT, don't stop proving yourself to be the competent woman you really are. And Willow, you have always been very strange but also very caring. Trudy, we will never forget how you always make us feel better and just be the best house keeper in the world. You are like a mother to both of us. Victor, I know you wouldn't have let me go once you find out who I really was and maybe it would be best for all of us if you just forget this. You are a good person, I know it. You don't have to continue through the path that you already are in.

We love you all, so much. And remember that Sibuna will pull through like it usually does even without us.

Fabian Rutter and Patricia Williamson

I had tears in my eyes once I finished the letter. I couldn't believe that they could just leave us after everything and I know that it just wasn't because of their love lives that made them leave. Maybe Fabian realized something when he left, something that would explain the entire thing and how the sides and vacant parts of the paper where the last goodbye was written were burnt and fragile. It wouldn't just be an accident because the markings were very precise. I shook the thought out of my head.

Once I got myself decent enough, I rushed downstairs were everyone was a mess. Even Jerome and Alfie looked as if they were just in tears. And I never really thought that Fabian and Patricia leaving would have that much of an effect on everybody. But the worst just had to be Eddie, who was frozen by the corner with his hands in fists and his head bowed in guilt. Joy looked as if she just lost all of her sanity and the only person keeping it together for her was Mara.

Victor, on the other hand, was pacing back and forth in the sitting room. The look on his face wasn't the same as it usually was but replaced by confusion and a hint of fear.

The door burst open to reveal a pretty brown haired woman with the same shade of eyes as Fabian. She looked as if she just came from an anxiety attack and the pain she was feeling was more than all of us here combined. Behind her was a small boy, about four years old, with chocolate brown eyes and honey blonde hair. Unlike his mother, he was still sobbing and my heart clenched at the sight as I picked him up and carried him.

"Daniel" I cooed to my favorite toddler, "It's going to be fine, Sweetheart. We're going to bring your brother back before you know it!"

He nodded, encircling his tiny arms around my neck and I just held him. I remembered when Fabian first introduced us to him, before Nina even came to here. Everything was so peaceful then and we just went to his mansion to visit his newborn little brother. All of us, especially me and Patricia, adored the little thing almost immediately and we just never let go of him.

"I have something to say, to explain everything about my son's identity."

Our caretaker seemed to snap out of his thinking to direct the mother to one of the couches, with us surrounding her and unconsciously pressuring her to tell us the truth. Daniel sobbed again in my arms.

Mrs. Rutter took a deep breath, her eyes sad. "Fabian has always been the special boy. He was very talented when he was a child and it was very painful for me to let him go here. But I know it was only for the best because I wanted him to be away from his abusive stepfather. What I didn't tell him was that he was the child of a very powerful being."

Victor raised an eyebrow before his eyes widened, his jaw falling to the ground in surprise. Then he started mumbling words, so many words that I only managed to catch "Salvation" and "Prophecy child".

She continued, though. "His real father came back to me when Fabian had his thirteenth birthday in this house. He told me that he will be a great weapon as long as he learns to control it though I never really thought that he would have any problem with that. As I said, he was very special." The woman paused for a while before she took a shaky breath. "Last night, he appeared in my dreams and his long lost power was finally activated and it was about time for his eyes to finally change to how they are supposed to be. The letter he wrote to you is burned, am I correct?" We all nodded, surprised that she knew about it.

"It is because his body temperature is beyond feverish. He can stand intense heat now but only gifted people can touch him, people like Patricia. He might not have known this but she was his partner, the person who was meant to be by his side while he changes. He knows what he's going through. He dreamed of it. He is going to burn hot. Very, very hot."

No one said anything for an entire minute and the toddler in my arms nodded off to deep sleep. "Who is his biological father?" Mara asked, afraid and curious at the same time. If Fabian was hurting at this moment, the only people to blame are those who turned against him.

The visitor wiped a tear from her eye, "His father is the ruler of the skies. The god of the sun." She didn't mention the name but I already knew who he was.

"Ra" We all said at the same time, in shock.

Victor:

How can I be so stupid not to realize how strong the child is any sooner? I should have noticed the aura, the power building around him but I was focusing on the pathetic "Chosen One" and how she's going to bring me to my salvation. Rutter was so much more important than Nina Martin. In terms of the power scale from one to ten, the girl only scores 9. But him, he scores beyond a hundred. He can be the person that I was looking for.

But no, it was about time that I stop using people. Fabian was right. I did not benefit from being the villain. If I was going to see the child of Ra once again, I would have to truly cooperate with those pests. Not only because they will get what I have needed for so long but because I owed them my services after sabotaging their plans for so many years already.

They deserved it.


Aww, Victor's so nice! Lolz. Please Review!
