It was a quiet Friday afternoon. The students of LTBS, Liverpool Towers Boarding School, were leaving to their designated house. The bright sun casted a warm glow, complete with a slight breeze to cool everyone off. Housemothers in every house prepared for supper. In the distance, you could hear the far off honking of taxi cabs. However, the peace was easily shattered by the shouting and laughing of a certain couple.

"PATRICIA!"

Patricia Williamson openly laughed as she ran towards Anubis House. Her boyfriend, Eddie Miller, was hopping a few feet behind her. He was missing a shoe, and was trying, in vain, to catch up with her.

"Oh, hurry up, slow poke!" Patricia replied over her shoulder. She put on a burst of speed when Anubis House came into view, but it wasn't very easy to run in heels. She already knew it was a losing battle.

"Gotcha!" Eddie exclaimed in triumph. He easily scooped her up and spun her around. The happy couple laughed so hard that tears were coming into their eyes.

"Give me my shoe!" Eddie demanded, smirking at her.

"What's the magic word?" Patricia teased, holding Eddie's shoe away from her.

"Puppies?" Eddie guessed, giving Patricia the most innocent look he could muster.

"It's please, actually, but close enough." Patricia handed Eddie his shoe and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.

Jerome and Mara appeared behind Eddie and Patricia. Jerome's arm was around Mara's waist. "Oh, stop with all the lovey-dovey c-"

"Jerome, no cursing!" Mara chided. She tilted her head to Victor, who was stepping out of a taxi cab a few feet away from the two couples.

Patricia gave Jerome a playful glare. "You hypocrite! You're telling us that, when you're exhibiting the exact same thing?"

Before Jerome could respond Victor walked up to them. "What are you doing? Get inside! Just because there is only a week left of school does not mean you can do whatever you please."

Everyone, excluding Mara, rolled their eyes when Victor turned his back to them. They reluctantly followed Victor up the steps and into Anubis House.

"Who put something in his breakfast this morning?" Eddie muttered.

"I heard that, Mr. Miller," Victor said. "Nobody put anything in my breakfast, but is there something you would like to tell me?"

"Nah, I'm good," Eddie answered, trying his best not to chuckle or smirk. Victor simply glared at all of them and stalked into his office. When he was gone, the four burst into laughter.

"So you did put something in his breakfast?" Patricia asked.

Eddie gave them a mysterious look. "Maybe...

Mara began to slowly back away. "I'm just going to... Uh..."

She gave Jerome a quick hug and practically ran up the stairs.

"Well, I'm going to go do homework," Jerome said, walking to the room he shared with Alfie.

"We don't have any homework," Patricia called after him.

"But I do," was Jerome's only reply as he closed the door to his room. Patricia frowned slightly, hoping it wasn't her who was going to get pranked.

The phone began to ring. Before Patricia or Eddie could react, Trudy was bolting to the phone and answering it. She exchanged a few words and then held the phone out to Patricia. She mouthed the words, "It's for you."

Patricia took the phone and put it to her ear. "Hello?"

"Patricia, it's so good to hear your voice again!" exclaimed a voice with a smooth British accent and a hint of French.

"You too, Penelope," Patricia replied to her sister, a smile working its way onto her face. Eddie gave her a small smile and went to the room he shared with Fabian and Mick.

"So, do you have any plans for the entire month of June?" Penelope asked.

Patricia already had a hint of where this conversation was going, and she was getting excited. "Nope."

"Well, I'm taking the month of June off, and I was wondering if you and the rest of Anubis House would like to come and stay with me for the month of June?" Penelope announced.

"Sure, that would be so awesome!" Patricia nearly yelled. Nina, Fabian, Amber, and Alfie, who were walking in, looked curiously at her before they went to the kitchen. Penelope was Patricia's twenty-six-year-old sister. She worked as a fashion designer and had her own private mansion in Paris.

"Slow down, Trix!" Penelope exclaimed. "Why don't you go and tell everyone? Give everyone's parents my new phone number. Get a pen and paper."

After Patricia wrote down Penelope's number, they talked for a few more minutes and then hung up. Patricia was practically skipping to the living area when Joy and Mick entered the foyer.

"Why are you so perky? Are the Sick Puppies in concert?" Mick asked.

"Nope, even better!" Patricia replied.

Before Mick or Joy could ask what was better than Sick Puppies, Patricia was yelling, "ANUBIS HOUSE MEETNG! EVERYONE COME TO THE DINING ROOM!"

"PATRICIA WILLIAMSON! WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?" Victor yelled. "NO YELLING!"

"First Jerome, now Victor?" Patricia demanded. "What is with the hipicritcy in this house?"

Patricia sat on the couch across from Mick and Joy. Eddie sat down next to her and Jerome leaned against the wall. Nina, Fabian, Amber, and Alfie came and sat down on the two love seats. Mara came from upstairs and went to stand next to Jerome. Trudy and Victor supervised the meeting from the kitchen.

"All right, Patricia, what is so important that it interrupts me from my pranking?" Jerome questioned, and then, realizing his mistake, slapped his hand over his mouth.

"So you were planning to prank somebody!" Eddie realized. "As long as it's not me, I'm cool with it."

"Any-way... My sister, Penelope, is twenty-six. She's a fashion designer, and she owns a private mansion in Paris. With your parent's permission, she has offered for us to stay with her for the month of June."

Immediately, all the guys began to whoop with joy. Patricia grinned. "You guys agree? We can fly out on the last day of school."

"Of course we agree!" everyone chorused.

Amber let out a high-pitched squeal. "Oh. My. Anubis. This is going to be the best summer, like, ever!"


A/N: Hi everyone. I'm new to the House of Anubis archive. This is set after Season 2, but it's not my version of Season 3. I don't really know how things go in England, so I guess I'll find out along the way. Please review. :)
