Hey!
Enjoy!
"That's a pretty locket." Fabian smiled. Nina tucked it into her jumper immediately.
"Thanks," she whispered, returning to making notes. Fabian sighed, wanting to make conversation with her. He tried to rattle his brain to think of suitable questions. And suddenly, he leaned back in his chair, remembering
Fabian was sat out by the front of the grass on the trimmed green grass. The sun shining as he read his book. He didn't care that people would walk past him and think he was a total nerd, he liked it here.
Joy and Patricia sat beside him "Hey Fabes," Joy greeted, grinning. He blushed smiling back.
"Hey…what are you doing here?"
"Ugh…you looked like a total loner so we came to keep you company," Patricia grumbled, stretching her legs, and leaning back to feel the sun on her face.
"No," Joy whacked Patricia's arm, smiling apologetically at Fabian, as she turned her body around to face him "Just wanted to talk to you, that's all," she smiled. Fabian grinned, amazed that someone as beautiful as Joy would be taking the time to talk to him.
"Sure….about what?" he frowned, mentally slapping himself, he was no good at this.
"Well…" Joy thought, reaching over to pick up his book that he had dropped by his side "Let's see what Fabes is reading," she grinned, turning to read the title. She laughed loudly "Moons of the universe?" she laughed, patting his shoulder "Fabes!"
"Hey! In my defence it's actually really interesting," Joy nodded her head sarcastically, Fabian laughed "No! I'm serious! Here-" he opened the book to a page near the end, and showed Joy a picture, her eyes widened slightly, but she quickly hid it.
"Lame." She stated, smiling. Fabian pointed at her
"No! I saw you! I saw you! You're impressed," he smiled victoriously.

It made his heart ache for a moment, but then he took a deep breath, scanning Nina's desk. "What book are you reading?"
Nina pulled it out, and read the cover aloud to him "The tower," she smiled "Have you read it?" she turned to him and Fabian grinned, he's gotten it right, he was having a conversation with a beautiful girl.
"No I haven't, what's it about?"
Line Break
Mara frowned, itching her palm "I didn't realise you and Patricia were so close," she sighed. Jerome shook his head, sliding on his phone.
"We're not. I don't know what this sudden bombardment of texts is all about," he frowned, opening the next message "She really wants me to meet her at the house,"
His phone trilled again, Mara's shoulders slumped and she let go of Jerome's hand, standing "Come on, she obviously wants to talk to you,"
Jerome picked up on her disappointed tone immediately, and he stood quickly, clutching her shoulders, bending down and trying to meet her eyes "Mara, nothing is going on with me and Trixie," he whispered.
Mara pulled away "Come on,"
Line Break
"Hey guys," Amber grinned, she and Mick came down the stairs of Anubis House as Jerome and Mara walked in. Alfie walked into the entrance hall from their room
"Hey man," he high-fived Jerome "Hey Mara, you treating Jerome right?" everyone laughed, and Mara smiled
"Of course Alfie," she turned to kiss Jerome gently on the cheek. Jerome grinned, it had only taken a few minutes to convince her that absolutely nothing was going on. Jerome realised he and Mara weren't so different after all, they both got jealous, easily.
"Hey guys," Fabian and Nina walked in.
"Have you asked her out then?" Mick asked, the six of them turned to look at Fabian.
"Asked her what?" Fabian asked her in a high pitched voice. Mick and Amber winced, Mara looked away, Jerome and Alfie laughed, and Nina's face burned.
"He totally fancies you," Jerome chuckled, Alfie nodded along.
"Fancied?" Nina repeated frowning "What does that mean?"
"Are you guys coming in or what?" Patricia's loud voice cut them all off. It was coming from the living room, but when they all walked in, there was no one there. "Just…just sit on the couch!" she demanded. Jerome frowned, looking over by the door, Fabian seemed to have the same idea. The seven of them all sat down.
"Um…Patricia, why are you hiding behind the door?"
There was a sigh, and Patricia stepped out.
Mick, Fabian, Alfie, Jerome and Nina all burst out laughing. Amber and Mara watched in pure horror. She was dressed in a cheerleading outfit, obviously not hers, with a giant 'Sorry Jerome' on the front, she was holding pom poms, and her hair was in pigtails.
"Give me a S!" she called, she was blushing profusely and everyone kept laughing so you could barely hear her. Jerome tried to stop, but he couldn't contain himself "Give me an O! Give me an S! Give me an S! Give me a Y! What have you got? Sorry!" she lifted one leg into the air and almost fell over. She started to spell it again, and Jerome raised his hands, clutching his sides because it hurt so much.
Alfie was on the ground, laughing his head off, Fabian had his eyes shut tightly, shaking with laughter. Nina just found it funny. Mick was howling his head off. (get it? Howling? Because he's in wolfblood? I thought it was funny...)
"Trix Trix Trix!" Jerome cut her off, managing to stand, still laughing "Oh god, stop it please! I'm gonna have a heart attack!"
Patricia stopped
"M-My god," he gasped for breath, a smile still gracing his face "What was that for?"
"About embarrassing you the other day," she said "I felt really bad about it." She continued quietly. Jerome straightened up, becoming serious.
"Really?" he whispered, jumping over the arm chair "Trixie, you didn't have to," he smiled at her "Totally forgiven," he hugged her tightly.
Mara's nostrils flared and she left the room. Amber understood before anyone else, after all, this was her area of expertise, and followed after her. Nina then realised, standing and following the girls. Fabian stopped laughing once he noticed Nina was gone, before clearing his throat
Jerome turned and frowned, when Fabian spoke "Jerome, Mara just ran ou-"
The blond boy immediately wrenched himself away from Patricia, running a hand through his hair frustrated "Man! I completely forgot!" he wanted to kick himself, he headed for the door
"Don't go after her!" Mick stopped him "She's up there with Amber, Amber will kill you!"
Alfie nodded "Although….that'd be a good fight,"
Mick laughed, and Jerome rolled his eyes "Hilarious Alfie." He grumbled, looking upstairs from the door way "How angry do you think she'll be on a scale from one to ten?"
"I'll check on her," Patricia smiled, heading for the door
"You don't have to do that, Trix," Jerome stopped her "You've done more than en-"
"I'm making it up to you, now accept it, because tomorrow I'm gonna be back to my old self again," Jerome chucked, watching her leave.
"Why so soon?" Alfie called after her, and a pom pom was thrown at his head.
