A/N: many thanks to Weaselette01 for her help with this fic! She's an awesome Beta! Here's the first chapter of the story. House Of What Ifs Fic(kinda)
It's the start of another school year for the residents of Anubis House. Jerome, Mara, and Joy have already arrived at the house and are waiting for everyone else to show up. Five minutes later, Mick and Fabian arrive and there's hugs galore. Patricia, Amber, and Alfie show up right behind them and the hugging starts all over again. They decide to wait until everyone has arrived to talk about what they did over the break, so they talk about other things. Amber looks at Patricia and Fabian and sees that they both have worried looks on their faces. She pulls them aside and says, "I know that the pair of you are worried about Nina and Eddie and why, but there's nothing to be worried about. They care about the pair of you, so they wouldn't hurt the pair of you, by cheating. Give it a week or two and everything will be back to normal." They thank her for the advice and realize that they were acting silly. Ten minutes later, Nina and Eddie show up, talking and laughing, like old friends. When they walk into Anubis House and enter its lounge, everyone gets up and hugs them, happy to have the gang back together again. When Nina gets to Fabian, they hug and kiss hello. Patricia and Eddie do the same, but there's more bickering than kissing. They all take turns telling each other what they did over the break. As they finish up, Trudy walks in and hugs them each hello and says, "Supper will be in one hour, so you'd better head to your rooms and get yourselves situated." They nod their heads yes and head to their respective rooms.
Nina and Amber's Room
Nina and Amber enter their room and start to put their things away. As they do, they talk about everything, except Eddie. Nina brings up Sibuna and the girls agree that it will start up again. Finally, Nina, who knows Amber's been wondering about Eddie, speaks up and says, "Eddie and I are friends, that's all. We've gotten close since last year, but we don't like each other that way. I love Fabian, but I can't speak for how he feels about Patricia. I do know that he would never hurt her." Amber replies, I'm glad that the pair of you have gotten closer, as long as you don't hurt them." "Me and Eddie could NEVER hurt them. They mean too much to the two of us. He cares about them like I do. We're just close because of the Chosen One/Osirian thing, that's all", says Nina. Amber tells her that everyone in Sibuna expects them to be close since Eddie is her Osirian. Then Amber asks, "Is it weird having two guys that are totally devoted to protecting you?" Nina replies, "It's a little weird, but it is what it is. I just hope they don't fight over who gets to save me every time I'm in danger, since trouble tends to find me a lot." Amber looks at Nina and says, "Yeah, no kidding!" The two girls laugh because they both know it's true. The girls spend the last fifteen minutes finishing up getting settled and head down to dinner.
Trudy says to everyone, "Supper is almost ready so you can sit in the lounge until it's time to eat. Fabian, Eddie, could the pair of you be dears and set the table?" to help her by setting up the table. The guys follow her into the kitchen area and get started preparing the table for them all to eat. The two guys barely talk to one another, except when necessary. Nina and Patricia look at one another. Nina asks, "Why are they acting like they hate one another?" Patricia replies, "No idea!" Everyone else sits in the lounge and they start talking. Nina and Amber are sitting next to each other on the sofa, so Nina turns to her and says, "I want to call a Sibuna meeting tonight at mid-night, in our room. Tell Patricia and Alfie and I'll tell Fabian." "What for?", Amber asks. She replies, "I'd rather wait until we're all together to tell you, okay?" Amber tells her that she'll tell them about the time and location of the meeting. Nina smiles and says "Thanks!" Trudy walks into the lounge and lets them know that supper is ready, so they get up and head to the table to eat.
During supper, everyone's enjoying the food and talking about what's to come in the new school year. Nina, who's sitting next to Fabian, turns to him and says," I would like to call a Sibuna meeting tonight, at mid-night, in my room." "I'll be there!", says Fabian. Amber's sitting next to Patricia, who's sitting next to Alfie, so she quietly tells Patricia about the meeting and then tells her to tell Alfie the same information. Then, Patricia turns to Alfie and tells him about the meeting and he tells her that he'll be there. She turns back to Fabian and quietly tells him, "I've told Alfie and we'll both be there."
They finish eating and decide to hang out, before they have to get ready for bed. They part ways and go to their respective rooms, to get ready for bed.
Nina and Amber's Room
The two girls are getting their room ready for the meeting that Nina's called. Fabian, Alfie, and Patricia are waiting for mid-night to come, so they can sneak out of their rooms and head to the girls' room.
Mid-night arrives and Nina hears a knock on their door. She walks over to the door and opens it, letting them in. Nina waits for them all to sit sown, and then says," I would like to start by telling you that there's a reason for why I've called this meeting." She pauses for a few moments, and then says, "I want to invite Eddie into Sibuna." She takes a few moments and decides to look at Patricia's face, first, to see how she's reacting. They all sit in silence for a few minutes and then Nina asks, "Well?" Amber and Alfie agree to invite him into the group, Patricia says that having Eddie in Sibuna would make her relationship with him go smoother than it went the year before and that it makes sense for him to be in the group, since he is the Osirian. Fabian's doesn't say anything at first because he's not sure of his feelings about the subject. Nina looks at Fabian and can tell that he's not sure, so she tells him, "Patricia's right, it does make sense to invite him in. He's my Osirian and he'll need all the protection that Sibuna has to offer." Fabian thinks about what she said and says," You make sense... Let's invite him." Nina is happy that they've agreed to let Eddie into their little group. They sit and discuss how to tell him and who will do the telling. They decide on two things: that they should tell him the first chance that he's alone in the next morning, together and that he should know what they've been doing since day one. They say good night to each other and Fabian, Patricia, and Alfie leave the girls' room and head to their rooms. Patricia and Nina, along with the other Sibunas, are happy that Eddie will soon know the truth.
The Next Morning
Everyone's sitting at the table eating breakfast. Patricia tells Eddie that she has to talk to him about something after they eat. He asks, "What about?" She replies, "I can't tell you, but it's important." He tells her okay and then shrugs his shoulders.
Breakfast is over, so Patricia and Eddie get up from the table and head to his room to talk. As she does, she nods her head sightly to the others to follow. The others nod back and get up, too.
Eddie and Patricia walk to Fabian and Eddie's room, where they all decided to talk to him. Once in the room, Patricia tells him that while he knows what she was basically doing last year, he doesn't know about everything that she did last year, nor about the year before. He looks at her with a confused look on his face and asks her to explain. She says, "For me to explain, I have to bring other people into the room, is that okay?" "Who?", he replies. She responds, "Nina, Fabian, Alfie, and Amber." He nods his head and she walks to the door and opens it. The others walk in and Nina asks Eddie to sit down. He says, "I'd rather stand! What's going on?" The Sibunas look at one another and then Patricia speaks, "Eddie, there's something we have to tell you. Last year, we did things that were dangerous. You know what the end result was, but you don't know everything. You don't know how we got to the result, nor about the year before. It's time to tell you the truth." Amber says, "The reason that we're telling you everything now is because we think that you need to be in our group, being Nina's Osirian. You need protection, too, so it just makes sense for you to join Sibuna." Fabian looks at Eddie and sees a confused look on his face, so he explains, "That's the name of our group, Sibuna, or Anubis spelled backwards." Eddie waits for a few moments and then asks, "What did you do that was SO dangerous?" The Sibunas tell Eddie everything that happened in the previous two years. As they're finishing up the first year, he decides that he has to sit down and finish hearing the rest from his bed. Nina, who notices that he's now sitting down, looks at the others and says, "I think he needs a break, he looks like he's going to explode." He looks at Nina and then the others and says, "I'm fine, I just needed to sit down for a while."
They finish telling Eddie about all the things that they've done over the past two years. When they finish, he turns to them and says, "I'm glad that you've all finally told me the truth about your group, Sibuna, I feel like I can trust you all more than I could last year." They show him the official "end of meeting" ritual and tell him the dos and don'ts when it comes to it.
Nina walks up to Eddie and shows him her necklace. His eyes lock on it and he gasps. He gets up, suddenly, and goes to his dresser, where he opens the top drawer. He pulls a box out and opens it in front of them. In it, there's a gold ring that's an exact replica of Nina's necklace, only smaller. Now, it's their turn to gasp and then Patricia asks, "Where did that come from?" He replies, "My dad had it, he gave it to me, before I left for summer break, last year. He had it, this whole time, until he knew that I was ready. He hasn't explained what it's used for, but he told me that he will, in time. I want you all there when I meet with him." They thank him for ting them with something that probably has to do with him being the Osirian. The others look at him in awe, too shocked to say anything else. They sit down, in shock, and take in what's happened. After half and hour, they get up and leave to start the day. Before they leave, they end the meeting as usual, and Eddie does it perfectly.
Monday Morning
All of the Anubis House residents spent Sunday getting ready for classes. This morning, they all got up early, in anticipation for the first day of of the new school year. Nina and Fabian have planned to walk to school with the rest of Sibuna. They told Eddie at breakfast, "We want you to spend time with all of us, and not just Patricia. It's the only way to make Sibuna as strong as it can possibly be." Patricia and Fabian are secretly worried that Nina and Eddie will get too close and shut out the others.
All of them are hanging out like they were the year before, except Eddie's in the group. Jerome, Mara, Mick, and Joy realize that Eddie is hanging out with them, but Mara and Mick think nothing of it. Jerome and Joy, who were apart of last year's mystery, think that it's weird for him to be hanging out with Sibuna.
As time goes on, Patricia and Fabian start to realize that Nina and Eddie are spending more and more time together. Amber and Alfie think that the pair of them are acting silly. After a few days go by and they see just how close Nina and Eddie are, they realize that Patricia and Fabian, maybe right to worry about their relationships with Nina and Eddie. Amber tells Patricia and Fabian, "I'll find out what is going on with the pair of them and get back to you both." She leaves them with a determined look on her face, hell bent on finding out what's going on with her roommate and the newest addition to Sibuna.
