A/N:
Disclaimer: I don't own anything, and I wouldn't want to, SO THERE! ************************************************************************
When I awoke I was freezing and looked like a giant prune. With a sigh I realized what I had done and, shivering, climbed out of the bath. Picking the warmest clothes I could find, I got dressed and headed down to the kitchen and picked up some earl gray tea, and hot chocolate.
I neared the Lounge and gave the door a firm rap. "Come in," Artemis told me, sounding bored.
"Hey," I said, handing him his peace offering, "Here's some tea."
Artemis raised an eye brow before taking it, "Why do you always bring tea when you search for me?"
"Oh, I think of it as a peace offering," I replied seriously, "It puts you in a relatively good mood."
Artemis gave me a dark look, and Butler was trying to hide a grin.
I quickly took a sip of my hot chocolate, planning on hiding the twitching corners of my mouth. It did more than that, it was scalding! I started to choke, letting out a few curses in between breaths.
Artemis just gave me an amused glance, not deigning to notice my discomfort.
I let out a slight growl before settling back into a chair and taking CAREFULL sips of my drink.
"When are you planning on heading home?" Artemis inquired nonchalantly.
I hadn't wanted to deal with that question so early on, but I turned to face it head on anyway. "As soon as possible," I replied softly. Artemis didn't say anything; he just looked away for a second before turning back to reply.
"I suppose you have thought this through," he trailed off, when I gave him a glare.
"Oh get over yourself, Artemis," I snapped, "I just don't want to deal with worrying about my parents and siblings any longer. You aren't so horrible that I can't wait to get away. Bloody idiot," I muttered darkly.
Artemis, quickly recovering, gave me a condescending glance. "If you have nothing intelligent to say," he began in a bored voice.
"Oh shut up," I replied with a return glare.
Butler was trying hard not to start snickering, but I do believe I saw his lips twitch. I directed another glare at him, and he gave me a far to innocent look in return.
"Do you think I could visit you sometimes?" I asked Artemis suddenly.
He gave me a surprised glance before answering, "Yes you could," he replied, sounding as if he didn't care one way or the other.
I gave him a hurt look; "Don't you care just an eensy weensy bit that I'm leaving?" I pleaded pitifully.
Artemis looked like he was caught between a wall and a speeding train, "Well, of course I would, what I mean when I say that is," I cut him off.
"Just say, 'you're a nice person, I like you, and I'll miss you,'" I told him with a slight smirk.
He gave me a freezing glare, but I just gave him a grin. "Would you mind waiting to leave until dinner is over?" he inquired like a good host.
It was all that I needed though, I knew that was his 'I'll miss you.'
"Yes, I REALLY want to stay until after dinner." I told him gratefully.
Artemis gave me a nod and returned to his book. I gave a sigh and grabbed my own from the coffee table and began to read also. It was A strange Mishap, by Jeannie Pokosky. She was famous in this world, but I don't think she existed in mine. I was very disappointed about the fact that I wasn't going to be able to finish it.
Artemis and I just hung out until dinner. We were just enjoying each others company, we wouldn't have it much longer. At dinner there was a feast, and Butler and Juliet ate with us. Also, there was only one fork, spoon, and knife each. I found it very enjoyable; the first relaxed dinner I'd ever had at the Fowls.
"Are you ready?" Artemis asked me as I stood in front of him in his room.
"No," I replied pitifully, Artemis just gave me a smirk. His smirk soon disappeared when I walked up to him and gave him a great big hug. For once he didn't have a snappy comment. I hesitantly walked over to Butler, him giving me a great big grin, and attempted to give him a hug. His response was to pick me up and give me one in return; my shock was great, let me tell you. Then I went over to Juliet, she was looking all teary, and we gave each other a great big girl hug. (The kinds where you hug each other, tearfully say your good byes, then break away and start giggling uncontrollably.)
"Are you NOW ready," Artemis asked me in a superior tone.
"I feel like I should be clicking my silver slippers or something," I muttered.
Artemis let out a sigh and gave me a pained look.
"All right, I'm ready," I told him with a laugh. Before I knew what was happening Artemis pointed his calculator at me and I blacked out.
And that was my dream, for it could only be a dream. Though I STILL don't understand how I could have woken up in my clothes when I fell asleep in a towel.
Or why I couldn't find my orange towel, or how that book by Jeannie Pokosky showed up on my desk. And sometimes, I have the oddest dreams about how I visit Artemis Fowl, but they are only just dreams.
For Artemis Fowl isn't real... ************************************************************************
A/N: This is, and probably will remane the worst story, and least favorite of any storyies I will ever write. Yet for all of that, I can't help but see how I have come a long way, from spelling, punctuation, to writing style. This was largely, and almost entirely due to the fact that I had such wonderful reviewers.
I would like to thank Eliza Star, Silverlight's Shadow, Angelgirl10, and Jessica. You were the people who suck with me the longest, criticised, praised, and earned my respect. I hope you will all review any later stories that I do.
As for the rest of my reviewers, you were the ones that spured me to update. Without you this would have taken another month, I solemly thank you for your patients, reviews, and humor. A special note to Sparrow () and your lively review that kicked me into reviewing actions. I have kept it on my computer and am considering framing it.
That is all I wish to say to the group of you, I hope this story was worth your time, for your reviews were worth mine. Oh, and please review this chapter, I WILL be reading them.
Jessica: Oh, so th ecomplication confused them. What complication? I am blind to my own story. Artemis wanted a fruit to test his machine, and as for explenations, you're not getting any more. That was the best I could come up with. Sorry. Oh, and, I hope you will be content to await my next story. I already have one in the works.
Ashlie(): If you ever read this, I praise you valor and patients.
Eliza Star: I understand that you have a life, I am beginning to receive one. My teachers were kind enough to give me a week to cultivate a life for the rest of the year! I need no steady reviews, but that you care to check up is heart warming. Why am I walrus? Hmm... I hope you like the next story I put up. I'll only be able to do a few chapters, it needs a plot from the very beginning. See, I'm learning!
Hannahbabara(): The other characters are asleep in the room cause the fairies didn't want to deal with them. Sorry about that. My fault. I guess when my story became cool, it ended, Sorry!
Angelgirl10: this is deeper than normal for me, I was wading, but now I have dived deep into the pool of literature. Here's my last update, I hope you review my next story, I already have the first three chapters written. Great Quote.

Mad Sam: I'm glad you get it, I should have been more clear.
Grub Kelp: Yeah! A guy! FINALLY! Anyway, I do tend to be confusing when I explaine things, I am VERY sorry. I am leaving you to read between the lines, sorry, but GUESS! Hehehe!
Selena(): Here's the last chapter, hope you enjoy it. I'm glad it seems possible, it felt real to me.
