Hey guys! I'm so sorry it's been awhile since I've last updated! Thank you all for the wonderful reviews you left on the last chapter, they always make me happy! And now, on to the story! I hope you like it:-)

I DO NOT OWN HOUSE OF ANUBIS! NOW GO READ!

Also, I changed the description of this story because I was tired of having to write a warning before each chapter. You all should know by now what kind of things take place in this story;)


(Eddie's P.O.V.)

"Freak."

"Creep."

"Gross- I hope he gets aids."

"Ugh, why won't he just die?"

"Does anybody even like him?"

"Who cares. He's a worthless punk, this isn't that exciting."

"I hope the rest of his life is a living hell. He honestly deserves it."

I can't read anymore. I slam my laptop shut, and throw my head in my hands. Why are they doing this to me?

I don't even know most of the people who have been leaving these comments on my wall. Some names I do recognize, but they're mostly from strangers.

I sigh, and decide that I should probably to go to breakfast.

When I enter the kitchen, all of the girls (Patricia included, to my surprise) are hovering around KT.

"It was the best date ever!" KT squeals

Oh yeah, she had her date with Nathan last night...

"And, Trudy said I could have him over for dinner tonight!" KT adds

Oh, great!

I take my usual seat next to Patricia and Fabian. I think Fabian's still mad at me from last night...

"So...does this mean you guys are together?" Willow asks

KT nods in excitement. "I think so! I mean, he did kiss me last night!" she exclaims

I shrug, and take a roll from a basket in the middle of the table.

I'm not 100% sure why, but I have a feeling this is not going to be a fun day.


-Later That Day-


"Eddie, it's time for dinner darling." Trudy says

I sit up in my bed, where I have been laying all day. "Okay, I'll be there in a minute." I tell her

She nods, and leaves my room. This has been a horrible day. Fabian's ignoring me, the girls have been hanging out together in some secret cult thing, while Jerome and Alfie are doing...eh, I'm almost scared to know what they've been up to. I feel so alone...

I've only checked my Facebook page once since this morning. No one had posted anything new on my wall, but someone did start an "Eddie Miller is a Freak" group. Over a hundred people from my old school had joined the page. And of course, the one and only Todd Spartley joined it too.

Never in my life have I felt so depressed. I don't even remember how this all began, even though it was barely a week ago. Was it because of Todd's unconditional hatred towards me? Whatever, all I know is that I'm miserable, and Todd is amazingly disturbed.

I guess I have to go to dinner now. Nathan will be there, and I'm sure he'll be all over KT. Ugh, just the of that thought makes me want to puke.

Sighing, I begin my walk to the kitchen. When I get into the foyer, I see Fabian standing by the stairs, playing on his phone.

"Fabian." I call out

He looks up from his phone, and at me. "Hey, Eddie." he replies, annoyance in his voice.

I shrug, and go stand by him. "Are you...mad at me?" I ask him.

He slips his phone into his pocket, and shrugs. "Yes, and No." he says

"Well...can you tell me why?" I question

"You really want to know? Okay, well, Patricia and I know something is up with you, and that for whatever reason, you won't tell us!" he snaps

I take a step back. I haven't seen Fabian like this since he found Nina's locket...

"You...you've been talking about me behind my back?" I stammer

Fabian nods his head sadly. "Eddie, we all can see you haven't been acting like yourself recently. We just want to help..." he murmurs

I look at Fabian's facial expression. He looks so desperate, so worried. But I still can't tell him anything...

"Dude look, it's really-" I start

"Eddie! Fabian! Your dinner's going to get cold, go eat!" Trudy interrupts

"We'll finish this later." Fabian mumbles, as he walks away from me.

I shrug, and follow him into the kitchen. When we walk in, Nathan is sitting in my chair, laughing with KT.

"Wow Nathan, you're really funny!" Patricia says

Okay, no! Just, just no!

I trudge over to them. "Oh, Eddie! I have you sitting between Nathan and Jerome!" Trudy exclaims, pointing to the open seat between them.

Really? She's making me sit next to that scum bag? Well, I guess I can't argue with her...


~An Hour or so Later~


Oh my god, I could just punch Nathan in the face!

He's such a fake! After sitting through an entire dinner with him, I have decided I literally hate him as much as I hate Todd. Whenever KT looks away, he keeps staring me down; it's really creeping me out!

"Trudy, I'm finished." I say, pushing my plate away

"Alright dear." she replies

I stand up from my chair. As I'm walking away from the table, Nathan stands up from his seat, and starts walking in my direction.

A cold chill runs up my spine. Why is he following me?

I quicken my pace, and try to hurry to my room. But he gets to me first.

"Miller!" he yells

I stop in my tracks, and turn around. He's standing right behind me...

"Hey, Nathan." I mumble

He cracks a small smile. "So, KT and I are together now. I was just coming to see if I...you know, had your blessing."

I stare at him. "Are you serious? After you and your cousin have bullied me to my wits end, you honestly think I would approve of you dating one of my best friends?" I snap

He snorts. "I was hoping you could at least be happy for her."

I roll my eyes, and start to walk away. Nathan grabs me by the arm, and pulls me back.

"Don't. Touch. Me." I growl

Nathan laughs. "Oh yeah? And what are you going to do about it if I do?" he says, clenching his fists.

"I'll...I'll tell KT what you've been doing to me. And I know for a fact that if I did, she would side with me over you." I threaten

He takes a few steps toward me. Now, he's about an inch away from my face. "If you dare tell KT anything about what's going on, Edison Miller, I will kill you. Mark. My. Word." he hisses

I laugh. "Ohhhh, scary!" I tease

Then, Nathan slaps me across the face, nearly knocking me over. He grabs me by the neck, and pulls me close. "You really think I won't kill you? My Uncle is a prestigious lawyer in Liverpool, and believe me, I could get away with murdering you easy." he growls

Okay, now I'm scared. Everything is happening so fast, I don't know what to do...

"You don't say a fucking word to KT. Got it?" He hisses

I nod my head. He lets go of my neck, and goes back into the kitchen.

Luckily, everyone else is still eating. I have time...

I run into my room, and grab the knife I've been keeping under my pillow. I haven't cut all day; now I need to.

I dash back into the hallway, and make sure nobody is around. Then, I run into the bathroom, shutting and locking the door behind me.

Oh my god. This is all too much...time for my release. I position my knife over my left wrist, and drag it up my arm...


(Patricia's P.O.V.)

"Trudy, I'm finished." I say, wiping my face with my napkin.

"Alright dear. I'll come collect your plate in a minute." she replies

I stand up from my seat, and walk out of the room. Where did Eddie go?

My feet drag against the ground, as I make my way to Eddie and Fabian's room. I gently knock on the door. "Eddie?" I call out.

There's no response. "Eddie? It's just me." I say. What has been up with him lately?

I sigh, and walk back towards the stairs. "Yacker?"

I turn around, to see Eddie standing a few yards away from me. I smile at him.

"There you are! I was just looking for you!" I tell him.

"Sorry, I was in the bathroom." he replies

I nod. An awkward silence passes us, before I finally ask him the question that I just can't seem to get off of my mind.

"Eddie, are you okay? You've been acting really weird lately."

He shrugs, and walks a few steps closer to me. "I don't know...I've just been...depressed." he murmurs

I stare at him in confusion. "Wha- is this because of the whole losing your powers thing?" I ask him

He nods. "Yeah, that's part of it. Ever since that happened...I've just felt so useless..." he replies

I stare at him in surprise. How could he feel useless?

I pull him into a hug. "I'm sorry." I say to him, squeezing him tightly.

"It's not your fault, Yacker. Don't worry about it- I'll be fine." he replies

I let go of our hug. Then, I tilt my head up, and kiss his lips.

He happily obliges, and wraps his arms around my waist.

We break apart too soon. "So, am I forgiven?" he asks

I nod my head. "Yes, you are forgiven."

I smile, and then kiss him again.


Weeeeeelp, what did you think? I figured it was time to put a little bit of happy back into Eddie's life:-) But how much longer will it stay? Do you think Nathan or Todd are going to do anything to him soon?

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASSSSEEEEE REVIEW! Bye guys, goodnight!
