I don't own House of Anubis!
Nina's Pov
After 15 minutes of walking down the hill with the guitar case swinging between both of our legs, we finally arrived back at my house. I ran inside to check the time, 1;56. Perfect. I could see all of my other friends, teachers and won't have to worry about running into Jess because her parents always let her take her birthday off from school.
"Okay, Fabian do you want to drive?" I asked
"Are you sure? I'm not sure if my license is valid here" he said
"Well, that's better than my license that doesn't exist!" I threw him the keys
We hoped in the car and I gave him turn by turn directions in my 'GPS navigator lady' voice until we pulled into the school parking lot. He got out then held the door open for me to get out. When we got in to the school, I went into the main office and approached Miss Laporta, the school's secretary.
"Miss Laporta?" I asked
She looked up from her apparently extremely interesting computer screen and answered;
"Yes?" in a very snooty voice
"You probably don't remember me, I'm Nina Martin. I used to go here before I got a scholarship to a boarding school in England. I was hoping I could go visit a teacher or two?" I asked in a very sweet tone
"Oh! Nina! Sure, just don't be too distracting to the classes and be quick. This is a school" she answered
"Thanks!" I skipped out with Fabian trailing behind
"Fabian hury up!" I called behind
I kept looking forward when I felt two arms wrap around me and laugh. Fabian. He picked me up and span me around, he let me down and raced me up the stair case. There it was, room 713! Miss Sondek's room. Miss Sondek was the best teacher in the world, she was a friend, a mentor and just a big kid. She was the teacher I found out about the scholarship from. I opened the door slowly and knocked softly to get her attention. Her whole class swiftly turned their heads and then she did. She put down her pointer and said;
"Nina Martin! What are you doing back from England? And whose your friend?"
"I'm here for a friend's birthday! Oh! And this is Fabian" I said pushing him forward
"Nice to meet you ma'am" he said sticking out his hand for her to shake it
"Oh please! Call me Sondek! All the kids do!" she said avoiding the hand shake
"Run over anymore deer?" I asked jokingly and the whole class and Fabian gasped
"One time!" she said
"This woman was late for school because she hit a deer on her way here and then she didn't even call for a sub! Her homeroom had to be held in the gym and be watched by the coach! When she did call, it was already 4th period! Then, we had the WORST sub ever, her name was Dr. Jones. If you called her Miss or Mrs Jones, she gave you this huge lecture on how she earned her doctorate and you should respect her enough to call her by her title. All the other teachers made fun of her the next day by requiring to be called Dr. Hudson or Dr. George" I said the Miss Sondek and I burst into laughter, the others just stared. I guess you had to be there
"So what are you guys learning?" I asked Miss Sondek
"The exciting world of Cells" she answered as we caught our breath
"Fun" I said sarcastically
"So how is England?" she asked
"Great! I made a whole bunch of friends! We all live together in Anubis House. Fabian here lives in the house with me along with Amber, Patricia, Mara, Mick, Jerome, Alfie and then our house mother Trudy and the groundskeeper Victor" I said shuddering at the sound of Victor "it's actually really odd NOT hearing an English accent! You should here Fabian and his British slang! It's SO confusing! Fabian, say something!" I said poking him
"Umm… It's Robin Hood ter meet ya aw!" he said
The class oooed and ahhed at his statement and I just smiled at him
"It seems that Fabian and Nina are more then just friends" Said Miss Sondek
We just tried to shake that comment off by laughing even though, I wasn't sure if we were dating or not. What is your relationship status In this very odd situation?
"Well, I'm going to be in the building and so is Fabian for another hour or so… I guess I'll see you around! If I don't see you, I guess until next time? Farewell Sonkep! Oh! And to her students, call her Sonkep. Her first year teaching 9th grade, she had her name printed wrong on the phone list and she was from then on, Sonkep." I said as I dragged Fabian out the door "Ado!"
"What was the rush?" asked Fabian "I thought she was your favorite teacher"
"Well, I kind of wanted to know. Are we dating, like are you my boyfriend or are we friends or like, what is our relationship status?" I asked really slowly
"That is up to you" know I'm confused "I will gladly be your boyfriend but, do you want to be my girlfriend?" he asked with a smile now moving in closer to me
"I would LOVE to be your girlfriend Fabian" I said giving him a small peck on the lips
Then, the door to Miss Sondek's room opened and Miss Sondek appeared
"Not to ruin your moment or anything but, your kind of distracting my class" she whispered and we flew apart "Better" she said and she went back into her room
"Let's go" I said with a laugh
"To where?" he asked
"Well, it's time for lunch!" I said
"Lunch?" he asked
"Dinner, In your terms" I answered making sure he understood
"We already ate" he said looking confused
"I want you to meet everyone and there's no better way to do it when there all in the same place!" the I bolted for the stair with him on my tail
Once we arrived at the cafeteria, I opened the double doors and creeped along the wall with Fabian behind me copying my every move. Once I approached my friend's table I put my hands on my hips and said;
"Girls! Don't you think you should be more aware of your surroundings?" they stopped what ever they were saying in there own conversations and looked at me at the head of the table and screamed;
"Nina! Your back!"
They got up and hugged me, Lexi just stood back and smiled
"Guys, this is my boyfriend Fabian" I said patting Fabians back and smiling
Lexi just gave me the 'What the hell happened?' look, I mouthed later and she nodded
"Nice to meet you all" Fabian said, forgetting about his usual hand shake
Within a few minutes, half the 10th grade was listening to my conversation with my friends to see what I had to say from the outside world that is England
"So, I have been DYING to ask Fabian this;" said Sara, another friend but she wasn't as close as Jess and Lexi "How on Earth did you get Nina here to say yes? Scott must have asked her out like a dozen times over the summer and she says no every time but two weeks after she leaves here she lands a stud like you? How'd she do it?" she asked
"Well," Fabian started "Nina lives with me in England in our boarding house, the House of Anubis. Last year, I had a HUGE crush on her as soon as I met her. We quickly became best friends and did practically everything together. Along with Amber and the rest of the gang, of course who are also kids that live with us. At the end of the year last year, we had an end of term prom and I finally got the courage to ask her and she said yes thankfully" he smiled at me and the crowd 'awed' "We were announced king and queen by our friend Amber and we danced then we kissed. Everything was perfect" at this point the entire crowd was silent and paying attention to Fabian "Then, she left too early in the morning for ANY OF US to say goodbye so, I waited. I waited all summer to ask her to be my girl. Then, on the first day of school, she wasn't there. All of us feared that she didn't get her scholarship renewed and that I would never see her again. THEN, on the second day of school, there was still no sign of Nina and nobody could contact her because we didn't know her zip code and Victor, our groundskeeper refused to tell us if she was coming back even though I had a feeling he didn't know either. But, on the third day, I came home from classes and there she was. Then we came here for her friend's birthday and I finally asked her to be my girl TODAY, actually only a few moments ago. And that, is the story of how she 'Landed a stud like me'" everyone fell to mush when they heard the story and 'awed', even a couple lunch ladies were caught up in the story that I lived. I just gave Fabian the biggest smile I could and gave him a peck on the cheek in front of everyone. I didn't care, I found my prince.
"I think I got my answer" Sara said
"Scott ain't got nothin' on Fabian" said Sierra, another friend of mine
"Well, it was great seeing everybody! Fabian and I are doing a charity concert for Strum's Music Shop on Tuesday so make sure you come! And please don't tell Jess you saw me! I'm a surprise!" I said taking Fabian's hand and walking him out
When we were in the privacy of the hall I stopped and looked at him and said;
"How could I ever have had gone a summer without you?"
"How did I go an entire year without telling you I love you?" he asked
