Here's a multi-chapter about the last few episodes of House Of Anubis in Jerome and Patricia's POV. Hope you agree that this is how the show should have ended.
Enjoy!
Jerome's POV
Nina, Mara, Alfie, Amber, Patricia and I all crept down the stairs as quietly as we could. Patricia was behind me, her breathing heavy. I was still angry at her for what she said earlier. I could tell she blamed me for Rufus knowing about what they were up to. True I had blabbed, but it still hurt that she felt she couldn't trust me now.
"Could you please not breath down my neck?" I snapped quietly to her. She glared at me, pushing me on towards the kitchen window that looked in on the front room.
"Just move faster and keep your mouth shut!" she snapped back. I could hear the others giggling behind us. I rolled my eyes, gripping my phone camera tighter in my hands as he all crowded around the window.
I could feel Patricia next to me, breathing heavily still.
"Clearly you're not good at sneaking around are you?" I asked. She didn't even answer so I continued. "I mean there was no way you have been sneaking around for the past few weeks while everyone was supposed to be asleep." her head snapped to look at me, her eyes looking scared.
"How do you know that?" she hissed. I smirked at my Goth Princess.
"Like I said, you aren't good at sneaking." she rolled her eyes, chancing a glance over into the front room. Using her hand she beckoned us up and I switched on my camera. We all held in our laughs, with a lot of effort, as we watched Mick lead Fabian in a bad rendition of the waltz. It was when he dipped him, taking the opportunity to smile brightly at a none existent crowd, did we all burst out laughing.
Both heads turned to us before Mick dropped Fabian, a sheepish smile on both of their faces as Fabian scrambled back up. We all clapped at the hysterical display.
"By Jove I think he's got it!" Alfie exclaimed in a posh accent. Patricia laughed harder, her body leaning against mine for support with her head resting on my shoulder. I blushed bright red, my laughter dying as a lump formed in my throat.
I stepped away from her, causing her to stumble a little. I steadied her carefully. She turned to glare at me.
"Watch it Slimeball!" she snapped. I winced at the name. Although it was Patricia's name for me, it hurt whenever she would spit it at me in distain.
No one knew of my feelings for the spunky Goth Princess, they all thought I was in love with Mara. That was helpful as it gave me a good cover up. The truth is…I'm completely in love with Patricia. She was so wild and spirited. She knew what she wanted and was always ready to fight for it. But at the same time she could be compassionate and caring. Like me, all you had to get through was a hard outer shell before you got to know the real person underneath.
"Sorry but the mere sight of you would cause me to turn to stone so I just pretend you're not there." I replied smoothly. Her face turned red but I could see hurt flash across her brown eyes. Before I could try and apologise she was already heading for the stairs.
I hadn't talked to Patricia since she stormed off at my 'joke'. I don't know what it was that upset her so much, but it was killing me that I had hurt her. It was breakfast of the following day and I was just walking down the stairs, all ready to get going after I had eaten. I spotted Patricia leaving the room, an annoyed look on her face. Perfect! I could apologise.
"Hey Trixie what's-" she shushed me before I could finish, her ear pressed to the door. "What's going on?" I asked, leaning over her to press my ear to the door. She twisted and I felt her face hit my chest, winding me a bit. She pushed me away.
"Watch it Slimeball! And Fabians' finally asking Nina to prom." she hissed. I guess she was still mad.
"YES!" we heard Fabian shout from the room. Patricia rolled her eyes as she opened the door, peaking her head through.
"Adorable." she muttered sarcastically. "Now I am starving." she clarified as she walked back to what I assumed was her place. I followed, sitting off to her right. Nina and Fabian were both smiling like idiots. I rolled my own eyes, focusing on my bowl of cereal while trying to think of a cool way to ask Patricia to prom.
"Hey Patricia, Fabian just asked me to be his date to prom." she said proudly. I lifted my head and watched Patricia's face fall.
"No way! I thought I was going with Fabian!" she cried unhappily, glaring at them. I felt my heart drop. She didn't like me, she liked Fabian. Nina and Fabian both looked extremely awkward and if my heart wasn't breaking, I would have laughed. I stood up from the table and walked away, grabbing my bag as I walked.
"Jerome? Where are you going?" I heard Nina yell. I didn't listen, just walked out the door and slamming it behind me.
After school I returned to the house, still feeling a little upset at what happened this morning. As far as I knew, there were only a few of us in the house so I decided to get ready for prom. As I walked through the doors I noticed a package sitting by the door. I smirked, Amber was not going to like what was inside. I turned from the doors and walked upstairs, ignoring the person that was coming downstairs.
"Hey Slimeball," I froze as a clothed stomach blocked me from going further. "What was up with you today? You just stormed off." she asked. I narrowed my eyes, pushing her aside to get up the stairs.
"Why don't you just go ask Fabian?" I muttered under my breath.
"What?" I heard her ask as she followed me. "Why would I ask Fab-oh my God! You think I like Fabian?" she cried. I cringed, stopping outside the door to my room. I gripped the handle in my hand tightly. "How could you be so stupid? Don't you think I would have said something by now if I did?" she laughed. I was gripping the door handle so tightly it could break. "I mean really Jerome how could you really think-" I whirled around to face.
"Because maybe it upset me that I thought the girl of my dreams was in love with someone else! And that I was going to ask her to prom with me, only to have my hopes crushed five seconds before!" Patricia stared at me after my rant, her eyes wide.
"Jerome…" she tried but I didn't want to hear it.
"So now I'm going to prom alone. Not even Alfie is going dateless...sort of. All I wanted was to ask you. All I wanted was to tell you that I lo-" I was effectively cut off by Patricia, who grabbed the front of my shirt and pulled me down to her lips. I was surprised at first, but almost instantly kissed back, my arms circling her waist and pulling her closer to me. Her hands were running through my hair, grabbing junks of it to pull me closer. Soon her lips weren't enough so I detached myself from her mouth and kissed my way down to her neck, nipping and sucking until she was effectively marked as mine.
Just as my hand started to fumble for the door handle again, Patricia pushed me away. I panted as I stared at her. Her cheeks were red, flushed with heat and her eyes were half lidded. Before I could say anything though, she was gone-sprinting for the stairs as fast as she could. I heard a slam and knew she had retreated to her and Nina's room.
"That I love you." I sighed heavily, going into my room.
I was now fully dressed for prom, save the jacket. I was waiting for the others to get ready but for some reason the girls were taking forever. A shrill scream made me jump before I remembered the little surprise I left Amber. I opened my door to see Amber running up the stairs. Patricia and Mara were standing on the steps, both looking appalled. I gulped at the sight of Patricia, we hadn't spoken since she'd kissed me.
"What happened?" I asked, feigning confusion. Mara gave me a distressed look.
"Amber ordered a dolls dress by mistake and now our clothes are going to pay the price." she grumbled, heading back up the stairs. Patricia stayed where she was, staring at me.
"I suppose you're going to make a remark about my clothes?" she asked. What? Why couldn't she see that what happened outside my room was amazing?
"Only that Amber would be lucky to have the beautiful sense of style that you do." I stated bluntly before heading back to my room.
Alfie was already there, sitting on the bed.
"Alfie mate, you have got to check this out." I said with new life as I bent down beside my bed. I pulled up a beautiful shoulder strap blue dress. Alfie's eye brows shot up.
"You stole the dress?" he asked.
"Yeah, it arrived yesterday." he gave me an unhappy look. "Oh come on I had to get Patri-Rufus off my mind somehow." I reasoned, blushing slightly. Alfie rolled his eyes. I shrugged and turned around, picking up my jacket and putting it on-making sure it was wrinkle free.
"Alfie are you ready?" I asked, turning around. He was gone…and so was the dress. I sighed, shaking my head. Of course he would choose Amber over me. I can't blame him, I would choose Patricia over everything.
As I exited my room I spotted Alfie charging down the hallway with the dress, pushing past Mick and Fabian while dodging around the girls on the stairs before disappearing. I rubbed my eyes as I joined the other guys, watching as Mara, Patricia and Nina walked down the stairs in their dresses. My breath caught at the sight of Patricia. Mara and Nina looked pretty, but compared to Patricia they could be wearing track-suits. Mick and Fabian were fumbling for words, only giving the occasional whoa. All the girls had expectant looks on their faces.
I rolled my eyes and walked past them, standing in front of Patricia and staring directly into her eyes.
"You look beautiful." I whispered to her. Her eyes widened and a blush exploded on her cheeks. I smirked before walking away, letting the others convene in the front room. I knew they wouldn't want me there so I waited down the hall. When I heard clapping I re-joined the others, only to be called a dress thief by Amber. It was fair, I'll give her that. I followed Mick and Mara as they left the house, heading for the dance. It hurt that I was alone, but at least I could take solace in the fact that Patricia didn't have a date. By the end if tonight I will make her mine.
I love her ad not even Rufus can scare me away.
CLIFFHANGER! Hope you Liked it.
