Your Secret Admirer
Chapter Two
Fabian had delicately wrapped the necklace in blue wrapping paper with a cream and navy bow with a blue rose taped on to the note that lay on top the gift and placed it on Nina's pillow before sneaking out of the room soundlessly. Once out he relaxed walking down the stairs with ease. Now, he had to wait for Nina to find it. Maybe she will be wearing it at the Sibuna meeting tonight. Fabian thought happily. When he got into the common room he sat on the couch next to Nina. Wait, Nina! Oh no. She'll probably ask me what I have been up to and I can't exactly say that I was planting her Secret Admirer gifts! Good one Fabian! Fabian scolded himself.
"Hey Fabian!" Nina exclaimed smiling joyously.
"Hi Nina." Fabian answered smiling back.
"So what thing exciting have you done while I cleaned up?" Nina asked. I knew it. I just know her so well. He thought.
"Oh you know...Same old, same old..." Fabian told her.
Sounds fun," Nina said, "well I better head upstairs, I have French homework and I need to get some sleep before the meeting tonight." Nina continued grinning deviously towards the end.
"Of course. Maybe I can help you study though? I have an A+ in that class and I know it's hard for you." Fabian said giving himself a chance to see her again. And possibly with the necklace on.
"That would be great thanks. I'll meet you in your room in half an hour?" Nina questioned.
"Sure. Catcha later then." Fabian said winking as she got up, when he winked Nina blushed as red as strawberry; what she didn't know was that Fabian did the same but he just hid it better than she did. I don't think that I would ever be more grateful for having Mick as a roommate than I do right now. Fabian thought before getting up to freshen up a bit himself. First he went to his room to get his pajamas and then he hopped in the shower. After ten minutes he got out, got dressed, and walked back to his room to gather his French book and homework. A few minutes later Nina walked into his room wearing blue and purple plaid pajama pants, a purple long sleeved shirt, and the necklace he gave her. She must have noticed him eyeing it because then she started fingering it.
"You wouldn't believe it Fabian, my secret admirer came again. He got me this necklace. Isn't it beautiful?" Nina asked him.
"It is. Very beautiful." Fabian said to smiling. I knew she would love it. He thought grinning.
"Thank you. So shall we?" Nina asked gesturing towards the French book that lie on the desk in front of him.
"We shall. Come, sit." Fabian told her patting the chair next to him. She did as he asked and they finished their homework in only about an hour.
"I guess I better go. I want to get some sleep before the Sibuna meeting tonight. Thanks Fabian. I'm really glad that you could help me, without you I probably would have failed this paper."Nina thanked him graciously while hugging him.
"It was no problem Nina. Anytime you need anything, just ask me." Fabian told her hugging her back hoping that he would never have to let go.
"I will never hesitate to." Nina said pulling back.
"Hey, can you wait here for just one second please. There's something I need to give you." Fabian said. He knew that he was actually going to place another gift for Nina. He was going to place a matching bracelet to the necklace in her school bag with a note that said:
I'm so please you liked your necklace, I hope I see you wearing your bracelet soon. Only one more gift left and then you get your big surprise.
Love,
Your Secret Admirer
After placing the gift in her bag, he ran into the common room where he pulled the gift he got her out. It was a Cheshire Cat wallet. She had told him that she loved the movie Alice in Wonderland so he went out and got her this wallet for a moment just like this. He walked back to his room with the gift behind his back. He sat back down in his seat and gave Nina the wallet.
"Oh Fabian! It's the wonderful! Thank you! I love it!" Nina exclaimed kissing his cheek.
"You are tremendously welcome." Fabian said blushing and rubbing his cheek where she kissed him, hoping to preserve the moment forever.
"I better head out. See you later tonight." Nina said ruffling Fabian's hair as she left.
"Catcha later." Fabian told her as he watched her walk out of his room. Fabian then decided to Nina's advice and get some sleep as well. He didn't know how long they were going to be in the attic. So he walked over to his bed and sat the alarm on his phone for midnight. He then got under the covers and layed down, hoping his short dreams to be filled with Nina.
MIDNIGHT
BZZZ! BZZZ! Fabian heard his phone vibrating on his night stand. He quickly reached for it, as not to wake up Mick. Once he had silenced the vibrating he silently got out of bed, put on his sweatshirt and shoes, and quietly snuck out of the room. Once out of the room he walked down the hall and up the stairs to Nina and Amber's room. He gently knocked and heard who he thought was Nina whispering to Amber to wake up. Amber replied by saying that she would just get Nina to fill her and Patricia in and that they needed sleep. So Nina answered a quiet 'okay' and walked to the door. She peeked out and smiled when she saw Fabian.
"Hey." Nina whispered smiling.
"Hey." Fabian answered. She's wearing the necklace. He thought happily as he followed Nina to the door to the attic, watching her silently pull her bobby pin from her hair and unlock the attic door. They climbed the stairs as quietly as they could because of the creaking stairs. Every tiny creak sent Nina and Fabian's mind soaring, each jumping almost a foot in the air. Once in the attic's secret room they could be louder, but not by much.
"Nina, hey. I think that we should go soon. It's almost 1." Fabian whispered when he was saw that she was practically falling asleep studying over her latest hunch.
"No, no. I need to figure this out. I have to. I can't rest until we do. We've been stuck on this clue for a week. I have to figure it out tonight. I just have to." Nina said sleepily.
"Then atleast come over here so I can keep you warm. You're only wearing a short sleeved shirt, I'm wearing a hoodie." Fabian explained hoping that the dark would hide his flaming cheeks. Nina as he told her and snuggled into his chest, soon after she started nodding off. I took out my phone and texted her that he and Nina were in the attic and may not be out til morning. So he picked Nina up, got out her locket (blushing because he had to pull the chain and pull and ended up having to stick his hand a little bit down her shirt to get it), put it to the wall so it opened the hidden room, walked into the room and layed Nina down next to him about a foot away, but only to have her crawl back over to him and snuggle deep into his arms. Needless to say, Fabian fell asleep with his love in his arms.
MORNING AROUND 2:30ish
"Nina. Nina. We need to get up and go downstairs." Fabian whispered in Nina's ear, rubbing circles on her lower back.
"Five more minutes please, you're warm." Nina barely mumbled snuggling deeper into his chest.
"Nina, you need to go to bed." Fabian told her.
"No. I want you, not my bed." Nina whispered again, a light flush rising on her sleeping cheeks.
"Come on. I have an idea. I'll carry you but you have to pretend to be sick." Fabian whispered again.
"Alright." She said. Fabian then picked her up and carried her out of the attic and into the hallway. He made a loud thud in the hallway before dashing into Nina and Amber's room and placing her on the floor next to the door. Just as he had planned, Trudy and Victor came racing to the sound. Fabian had left the door wide open where Nina was lying on the floor.
"What happened?" Victor and Trudy asked loudly.
"I heard a loud noise and I came up here hoping to find it. I didn't see anything in the hallway so I decided to check the bedrooms and since Nina and Amber's room was the first door I checked it first so I opened the door and found this." Fabian explained to his housemother and the caretaker of the house.
"Oh dearie. This is just wretched, I think she may be hurt. Fabian sweetheart, could you take her down stairs please. I need to fetch the first aid kit." Trudy told him. He ever so gently lifted Nina into his arms and carried her to the common room and laid her gently on the couch next to the fireplace. He whispered in her ear slightly, "They are falling for it Nina." He heard her giggle quietly in response.
"Thank you sweetie. You can go back to bed now if you'd like." Trudy told him.
"No, no. Trudy, I'll sleep in here so I can keep an eye on Nina. I'm very worried about her. You go back to bed Trudy, I'll take of her. You need your sleep." Fabian explained to his housemother sweetly.
"If you insist dearie. Thank you. Goodnight now. I'm sure you know where the blankets and things are." Trudy told him before walking back to her bedroom. He suspected that the loud snoring sound was Victor so he knew he was safe to talk again.
"Nina. Nina, they're gone. I'm here now." Fabian whispered in her ear, kissing her forehead.
"Good. Now come here, I'm freezing to death!" Nina said wrapping her arms around his shoulders, trying to go back to sleep.
"Alright, alright. But how are we both going to fit on the couch?" Fabian thought out loud.
"Are you implying that I have a big butt? Because you won't get many girls by telling them that. Just so you know." Nina told him snuggling into him as well as she could.
"I was not. I was just saying, how are we-two high school juniors-going to fit on the same couch. We just won't fit." Fabian backed himself up.
"Well I guess you do have a point. Well once we get warmer we could sleep on different couches." Nina explained looking almost sullen.
"Alright." Fabian told her with a smile. He got up on the couch with her and she layed her head on his chest and wrapped her arms around him. He, in return wrapped his arms around her and layed his head on her head, placing a sweet kiss on the top of her head so gently he was almost positive she didn't even notice. But what he didn't know is that she did, she felt a slight pressure on her head and she knew it had to be his lips because a nose wouldn't feel like that, nor could it have been his hands because they were wrapped around her. When she felt his lips on her head she stopped breathing, it was a cliche' but she did. Fabian was everything Nina ever wanted in a guy. He was cute, smart, sweet, caring, musical, and just so Fabian. Before she knew it, she was drifting off against Fabian's chest, she didn't want to go to sleep yet, so she forced her eyes to stay open.
"Fabian, don't let me go to sleep. I want to stay up with you." Nina told him yawning.
"Alright. Do you want to play a game then?" Fabian asked yawning as well.
"Sure. Let's play 20 Questions. But narrow it down to 13 questions." Nina told him.
"Alright. But we should right down our questions that way if we get really good ones we won't forget them." Fabian told her.
"I can do that. Will you come with me to get my bag out of the foyer? I'm kind of afraid of the dark..." Nina told him blushing.
"Of course." Fabian said smiling.
"I guess we better get up if we want paper..." Nina said because neither of them had moved from their spots on the couch.
"I guess we should." Fabian said watching Nina get up. He soon after followed her into the foyer while she grabbed her bag and got a notebook and two pens; and while Fabian had his back turned she grabbed something else and looked at and put it back. Once in their previous positions in the common room, they started writing down their questions.
"Maybe we can just switch papers and write the answers. It would probably be easier." Nina offered.
"Sure." Fabian said switching papers with Nina. Looking at the questions she wrote, preparing to answer them.

"Alright I'm done." We both said with a smile. We switched papers and looked over the answers.
"Wow. Alot of our answers are the same." Fabian whispered.
"Yeah." Nina whispered as well. They sat in silence after that just happy to be in each other's arms, both just too afraid to admit it.
"Nina? What was that thing that you got out of your bag." Fabian asked not wanting to pry.
"Oh. It was actually just another Secret Admirer note and bracelet. I left the bracelet in my bag but I brought the note. Do you want me to read it for you?" Nina asked eagerly. There was just no way that Fabian could say no, not that he wanted to.
"Yes, of course I would." Fabian replied just as eager.
"Alright it said,
I'm so please you liked your necklace, I hope I see you wearing your bracelet soon. Only one more gift left and then you get your big surprise.
Love,
Your Secret Admirer
Isn't it just so sweet? I wonder what the big surprise is though.." Nina pondered.
"It was very sweet." Fabian told her smiling at how happy his little gifts had made her.
"Oh I know!" Nina told him.
"Nina, it's around 3:30 now, we probably need to go to sleep." Fabian told her.
"Well can I atleast get a goodnight hug?" Nina asked standing up and opening her arms waiting for her hug.
"Hmmm...I don't know...I may have to think about it." Fabian teased with an evil glint in his eye.
"Get up here. I want a hug. Now." Nina demanded.
"Alright, alright." Fabian said getting up and walking over to Nina to give her a hug. He wrapped his arms around Nina's waist and hugged her tight. Nina wrapped her arms around his waist and buried her face into Fabian's chest. Nina's hands where gently rubbing absentminded shapes on Fabian's lower back. Fabian's hands were rubbing back and forth across Nina's hips. Nina soon stopped rubbing circles on Fabian's back, she took her hands and put them on top of Fabian's. She interlaced their fingers together and pulled them down to her sides. One of Fabian's hands released her own and started rubbing small circles on the thin strip of skin that was exposed above her hip.
"N-Nina, w-we nee-need to g-go to sle-sleep." Fabian stuttered.
"Shhh..." Nina said placing her free hand's index finger over Fabian's lips. "It's alright." Nina smiled. She placed his hand back on the exposed skin above her hip, forcing his hand to rub on it back and forth. She rose up to her tip-toes and placed her lips over top of his in a smoldering kiss. She kissed him with such a passion that he was sure that his great-great-great-great grandchildren would feel it. They broke apart for air about fifty seconds into the kiss, they both started gasping for air but once they had both caught their breath Fabian kissed Nina's lips, hard. This kiss was much less gentle than the first, their tongues danced for dominance and Nina knew that her Gran would never approve of her actions; but at this point Nina didn't care. She was completely happy and stress free for the first time in a long time.
"Fabian, I-I think I love you." Nina stuttered breaking away from the kiss, her index finger slipping under the elastic band of his pajama pants, the skin there was so soft. Like velvet. She thought.
"I know I love you Nina." Fabian whispered, his own hands sliding under her shirt to touch her abdomen.
