She walked slowly up the steps, taking the whole sight in.
Home.
Home was the only word that came to her mind as she looked at the vine-covered Anubis sign and the old doors that had just opened up for her. Nina walks inside breathing in the mossy-wood scent of the house.
Yes, definitely home.
A big smile envelops her face and she sets her bags down, walking in the common room. The next thing she knows, a big blur of blonde and pink has her pinned against the floor. Amber. She laughs as the young hyper blonde screams her name over and over in a bone-crushing hug.
"I missed you so so so much Neens!" Amber screams in her ear.
"Amber..your..can't…breathe!" Nina finally manages to choke out.
"Oh. Sorry Neens!" Amber apologizes and helps Nina off the floor.
Nina looks around the room and sees everyone except for Fabian in the common room.
"Hey guys!" Nina tries to hide her confusion as to why Fabian isn't there and greets everyone before she asks.
"So, I guess you're wondering where Fabian is.." Mick adds.
"Um, yeah where is he?" Nina asks blushing slightly.
Mick nods his head towards their dorm and Nina smiles at everyone as she leaves.
Nina walks up to the closed door and knocks a few times.
"Fabian? It's Nina."
Nina hears things being moved around and next thing she knows she is face to face with the love of her life. Fabian James Rutter.
Nina laughs as Fabian grabs her in a huge bear hug spinning her around. He then sets her down and crashes his lips to hers.
Oh, how she has missed him. They then break the kiss and smile at each other, blushing furiously.
"Best welcome back ever." Nina states laughing. Fabian laughs along then grabs her hand with one hand, the other covering her eyes.
"I have a surprise for you." Fabian whispers in her ear and then leads her into his bedroom.
"Once he closes the door behind them, he uncovers her eyes. In front of her is a white table-clothed table with two chairs sitting diagonal from each other. A thin vase with a very healthy red rose in the middle and two lit candles on each side. The chairs are pulled out and a plate with sautéed salmon and some sauce drizzled on it sits in front of each chair.
Nina's eyes tear up as she takes in the sight that Fabian had prepared for their date. She just looks at him with love fully evident in her eyes and kisses him with all the passion she can muster. He kisses back with equal passion and then leads her to the table and once she takes her seat, pushes her chair in for her. He then sits on the opposite side and they hold each other's hand on the table, eating with the other. They talk about anything that comes to their minds and catch up on the events of their summer.
Once the date was done, Fabian blew out the candles and then went to help Nina unpack. Nina couldn't help but think that he was the one she wanted to spend the rest of her life with. From the second that thought entered her brain, the journey of Fabina truly began.
There it is! Please no flames. This is currently a one-shot, but if I get enough reviews, I will make it into a multi-chapter! :D Please R&R! Constructive criticism greatly appreciated!
