Hehehehe:)

I'm on time again! I don't know about you guys but it makes me very happy that I can keep my word and post on time for y'all. I have to say that I am pretty dang surprised. I normally don't write a whole chapter in a week:()

But I have for you!

Thank you So much everyone who Favorited, Followed and reviewed, and thank you InfinityMidnight for being my beta. god knows I need it:)

K so if you want I can make the chapter longer but it might take longer for me to get them to you. So you can tell me what you think in that Awesome little box down there that makes it possible for you to tell me what you think!

So without further ado: Chapter 3

(Disclaimer, I do not own Alex Rider altho it would be AWESOME if I did!)

Alex Pov…

The second I stepped out of the car I was engulfed in Sabina's arms.

"Alex! I missed you so much!" She cried. I stiffened and had to mentally tell myself that it was fine, Sabina wasn't going to hurt me, she wasn't the enemy. I silently shook my head and wrapped my arms around her.

"I missed you to," I said. I watched as she pulled away and took in my appearance. My sandy blond hair had gotten a bit longer and shaggier and my bangs fell into my face, partially hiding unnerving blue eyes. I had gotten taller then her in the past few months, I was also noticeably thiner. When her gaze made it to my eyes she could only hold my gaze for a few seconds. She would later tell me it was because they held so much pain, that you could tell that I had seen and done way to much for someone my age. She smiled and ran to her father, Sab was quickly replaced by Elizabeth Pleasure. She embraced me and, just like Sabina pulled away and looked at me, taking in my appearance, then trying to figure out what changed sense the last time she saw me. She smiled a sad smile. It was obvious she didn't love what she saw.

"Grab your bags, Sabina show him to his room please," she said. Sabina nodded and grabbed the small duffel bag that I was carrying and went and stood next to the door. I wen't to the trunk and grabbed my two suitcases. Edward had said that he could arrange for a whole crate shipped over but I had declined, saying that I preferred to leave to it behind. It held way to memories, memories that where to painful to remember. Sabina led me through the living room and kitchen before walking upstairs an opening a door over to the left.

"My rooms over there and thats Mom and Dad's," she said pointing to two other rooms, I nodded.

"Thanks Sab," I said. She smiled and nodded before walking back down the stairs. I opened the door and walked in, It was a nice and simple room, it had a bed in the corner next to a window. There was a desk over by the door and a small closet, It had a lamp by the bed and another by the desk. All in all, it was a simple room, which I was very grateful for. I closed the door behind me and left the suitcases in the closet, I would deal with those later. I dropped the small duffel bag on the desk and laid down on the bed. After a minute I turned around and looked out the window. The house was in a small neighborhood on Writer LN.

There was multiple boys and girls outside playing basketball or just talking. They had all stopped and watched as I had gotten out of the car and come into the house. A couple of the girls where trying to look into my new room and see who the new kid was. I got up and flashed a smile before pulling the curtains in-front of the window, my smile instantly vanished as I laid back down on the bed, I had a chance to start a new life here, I couldn't spoil it by letting everyone see who I really was. I was Alex Rider, a fifteen year old boy who had seen and done way to much. A boy who would never again be a normal boy. Alex Rider, MI6's secret weapon.

Half an hour later I came down from my new room, Mr. Pleasure was in his office doing paperwork and Mss Pleasure was in the kitchen making dinner. I walked into the kitchen wondering if I could do anything to help when Mss Pleasure turned around.

"Oh!" she exclaimed and almost dropped the salad bowl she was holding.

"Alex, I didn't know you where up," she said, regaining her composure.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to startle you," I said as a reply.

She smiled. "Its fine, is there anything you want?" I shook my head.

"No, I was wondering if I could help out with dinner," she smiled again.

"No, but Sabina wanted to show you around, she's in her room," I nodded and walked out. I made my way up the stairs and knocked on the door.

"Come in!" I heard Sab yell, a little louder then necessary. I walked in to see Sab on her bed surrounded by homework, she had clothes and random stuff thrown around her in her room and her desk was littered with stuff. She had he iPod lying on the bed next to her and headphones in blasting music. She brightened up when she saw me.

"Alex!" she said and hopped off the bed scattering her homework all over the room. I cringed slightly. She rolled her eyes.

"I'll pick it up later, come on I want to show you around!" she said grabbing my hand and dragging me out of the room.

"I had like seven kids walk over and ask who you where, by the way. Oh and when you smiled at those girls out there, I swear one of them almost fainted!" she snorted. "You'r really not that cute up close," now it was my turn to roll my eyes.

"Gee thanks," I said. She smiled and looked back at me.

"Any time," she said with a playful smirk.

Half hour later I new the house like the back of my hand,but then again I had been trained to be able to memorize things after only seeing things once. Sab was exactly like I remembered her. funny, sassy, spunky, energetic and, well, Sabina.

We where sitting in the dining room eating dinner now. Sab was talking about how school was going and whatnot when she looked at me expectedly. I looked up from stirring the soup in the bowl in-front of me.

"What?" I asked when I realized that she had been talking to me. She rolled her eyes.

"I asked if you liked the soup or if you where stirring it like that because of something else," she said.

"Oh, yes the soup is very good. Thank you," I directed the last part to Mss Pleasure. She nodded, altho she had a slightly worried look on her face. Actually I hadn't even tried it, I was sure that it was very good but I just wasn't hungry, in truth I was very rarely hungry now a days, after Jack. After she left, I had been eating very little. I flashed a smile and took a bite of the soup, it was good. A little while later Sab turned to me again, this time I noticed and heard her question.

"So Alex, when do you want to start school again?" she asked, I shrugged.

"As soon as possible, I brought homework I have to catch up on but if I work on it I should be able to finish in around a week," Sab gaped at me.

"A week! How much homework do you have?" she asked.

"A lot. It was hard to keep up with, well, my other occupations," I said, they looked a little uncomfortable at the mention of MI6 and there forcing me into all those missions.

"How are you holding up?" Mr. Pleasure asked. I shrugged.

"Fine, I guess," I said. Sab rolled her eyes again seriously her eyes where going to get permanently stuck up there.

"I guess isn't an answer Alex. Its a Yes, No, or a Not really but I'm getting better," she said.

"Its alright Alex, you don't have to tell us," Mss Pleasure said.

"Thanks," I said and took another bite of my soup. Sabina was about to roll her eyes when I started to say something.

"You know Sab, if you keep doing that your eyes are going to end up staying there for the rest of your life," Mr and Mss Pleasure smiled and Sabina scoffed.

"Hardy harhar Alex, your so funny," she said. I smiled.

"Why thank you."

As soon as I closed the door to my room the fake smile fell, the twinkle in my eyes vanished and my posture stooped just a little.

It was so hard to keep up the facade that I was okay, that everything was fine, that I was healing. Because I wasn't I wasn't healing and I didn't feel okay, I anything but okay actually. Jack had died because of me and there was nothing I could do to bring her back.

***One week later***

I sighed and set down the page of my homework. It had been two weeks of basically sitting in my room and doing my homework, I wold stay up late doing it and get up early to do more. I hadn't eaten a lot so most of the time I would have spent eating or getting to know people was spent doing homework. But I didn't mind, I preferred it actually. It kept my mind off of what had happened to me in the past year. I sighed and laid down on my bed, altho I was tired sleep seemed as far away as moon. I smiled bitterly, the moon, to think that I had been there! I rolled the other way and looked out the window. This was my new home. But was it really home? They say that home is where the heart is, but my heart was with Jack, and Jack was dead. No, I didn't have a home, not really. this was just a place that MI6 sent me until they could use me again. And with that thought, I fell asleep.

I woke an hour later to a light knock on my door. I rolled off the bed and rubbed the sleep out of my eyes, before opening the door. I plastered a smile on my face when I saw Sab, she chuckled.

"You look terrible," she stated bluntly.

"Wow thanks, you too," I said sarcastically.

"You ready for school tomorrow?"

"Uh yeah, I think so," The pleasures had arranged for me to start going to school again after I said as soon as possible. That 'as soon as possible' was tomorrow.

"Good. Cause all the neighbors want to meet you and we all pretty much go to the same school. So your getting introduced to like a million kids tomorrow. And they'll all be mostly girls," she muttered. I rolled my eyes.

"Yeah, right. Cause I really want to go meet a bunch of girls who nearly faint just because I smile," I said. She laughed.

"Yeah I know you do, it sounds so exciting right?"

"Haha"

"You know, I really don't think you'll have that much of a problem, after all you look terrible right now, so if you look like this when we go tomorrow then you'll have people actively avoiding you," she said good-naturedly. I held up a finger indicating that I'll be right back and ducked back into my room.

I came back out am minute later with water slowly dripping out of my mouth making my shirt all wet where the water fell. She erupted into a fit of giggles, she gasped trying to regain her breath. I cocked my head to the side and stared at her. That just made her go into another long fit, I chuckled and wiped my face with my shirt.

"If…you…go like…Hahahaha…that then…they'll be running…from you…like the plague!" She said in-between fits of giggles and gasps, she doubled over and continued laughing. After a minute she managed to get herself a tiny bit more under control and pointed back into my room.

"Go change. Dinners in fifteen minutes." I nodded.

"Don't die of laughter out here," I said, which only made her apt into another fit of giggles. I walked back into my room and grabbed a change of clothes before walking into the bathroom down the hall. I looked at my reflection in the mirror.

I smiled. "I do look horrible," I muttered. I had dark circles under my eyes and my hair was sticking up in every direction, I still had a bit of water on my cheek. I chuckled and turned the water on for a shower.

I tossed my dirty clothes in the laundry basket in my room and looked out the window. I looked away but quickly looked back when I saw Jack standing on the other side of the street. I shook my head and blinked, I looked again but she was gone.

"I'm loosing my mind."

Yeah yeah I know, another filler. but hey, I said there was going to be a couple more filler chapters so...yeah.

Anyway, I was thinking maybe 1 or 2 more fillers and then it should pick up the pace:)

Okay so there is an Amazing button sown there. I know y'all know what I'm talking about. Please Please, Please. P-L-E-A-S-E review!
