PLEASE READ! DON'T SCROLL PAST! I THINK YOU WILL BE VERY INTERESTED IN THIS!
Ok so someone asked me about the couples in the story. Well I don't know what they will be right now. I garentee by the end of the story everyone will have kissed or gone out with everyone. I guess the cannon couples will be which ever I get the most requested in the reviews. If I get more 'Can you add Peddie' and less 'Can we have Patrome' then Peddie will be cannon. If I get more 'Walfie yay!' then 'Please Amfie' then I'll make that a cannon couple.
Point is, I'll pair people with whoever I feel like it. There will be some crack, maybe a little slash. Don't get upset if a couple you want doesn't get together right away. Odds are it will probably happen at one point in the story.
Also, Willow isn't coming until chapter 4, and she's a small part in the chapter. She'll be more important as the story goes on. Also KT isn't coming yet, most likely not until chapter like five or six. I still need truths and dares, but I don't know when that's gonna happen in the story, cause I decided not chapter 3. Sorry about the long AN, they won't be this long in the future.
Chapter 2
The weekend is over, hangovers are cured, and it's time to get back to school. However, that doesn't mean the fun has to end. I'm always excited for a new day because the Anubis House always brings the entertainment. I wonder what this week will bring! -Jackal
"Mick, your hair is really messy" Amber said.
"I was training before school, so it's a little sticky from sweat" he said.
"Couldn't you brush it?" She asked him.
"Amber, you're doing it again" Mick groaned.
"Sorry beau" Amber said. They looked at Mara and Alfie ahead of them. They had been hanging out more, because Amber, Jerome, and Mick were avoiding them. Plus everyone else were bugging them about the night 'it' happened.
"I just can't imagine it" Mick said.
"Who cares?" Amber asked annoyed.
"I don't, I just think it's weird" Mick said.
"Please, everytime they come into a room you leave" Amber said.
"What about you?" Mick asked. "Alfie and Mara are like your best friends and now you won't even look at them. Why do you care?"
"I don't!" Amber insisted.
"Neither do I!" Mick yelled.
"Ok, fine!" Amber said and they walked silently the rest of the way.
Looks likes there's tension with Barbie and Ken. But that's old news. I'm surprised because of what it's about. Why are they so upset over Big A and Little M? Are there some hidden feelings under the makeup and the sweat? I guess we'll find out. -Jackal
When Alfie and Mara walked through the doors, everyone stared at them. They tried to ignore it, but it's not easy to ignore at least fourty pairs of eyes staring at you everywhere you turn.
"Uh, maybe we should just stay away from each other" Mara suggested. "Just until this blows over"
"Yeah, I agree" Alfie said. He went to his locker, which was next to Jerome's. "Uh hey buddy"
Silence.
"Why are you mad at me?" Alfie asked.
More, deafening silence.
"Ok, fine" Alfie said slamming his locker door shut. The house walked to Chemistry with Mr. Sweet.
"Today, we will be doing a partner project assigned by last name" Mr. Sweet said. He pared people up, which usually went Amber with Eddie, Jerome with Mick, Fabian with Patricia and Alfie with Mara. Joy and Nina were paired together, but Nina isn't there. "Ms. Jaffray, Mr. Lewis could I speak to you in my office?"
"Uh, yes" Mara answered though she knew it wasn't a question. It was a demand. They walked to his office and sat down.
"So, it has come to my attention, that you two have been... a little more friendly than we would like" Mr. Sweet said. "Though I usually let Victor handle this, I'm not sure that it's a good idea that you two work together"
"You know we work well together" Mara said. Mara did the research, and helped Alfie understand what the assignment was. Alfie helped them come up with a good way to present their work. Their projects were always A+ and helped Alfie bring his grade up.
"Mhmm, maybe too well" Mr. Sweet said.
"Mr. Sweet, I swear it's a rumer" Alfie said.
"Mhmm" he said, clearly not believing him. "I do know that your projects are usually outstanding, so I'm giving you a choice. You can work together with a supervisor instead of having different partners. Take it or leave it"
"Take it" Alfie said.
"Leave it" Mara said. "I'm not going to be watched like a fish in a tank"
"You're the only one I work well with! Fabian doesn't explain it to me, Jerome distracts me, and Amber... distracts me" Alfie said.
"Mr. Sweet, it is just a rumor, we aren't doing anything" Mara said.
"You know you can trust Mara" Alfie said. Mr. Sweet looked in between the two of them and sighed.
"Very well" he said.
Aw, our spotlighted couple of the week are paired together for a project! My theory is the chemicals reacted between them when doing one of their A+ projects. Everyone knows they work really well together! Everyone may be rooting against them, but I'm rooting for them! What do you guys think of our unlikely pair? I'll keep you posted! -Jackal
After class at lunch, Amber went up to Mara in the bathroom to talk for the first time since she read about the rumor on Jack Jackal.
"So..." Amber started. "So how did it like, start?"
"What?" Mara asked
"You and Alfie" Amber clarified.
"Look, what happened was, after the party, Alfie and I watched a movie together. We fell asleep together," Mara said hoping to finally clear things up. When she looked at Amber's face she realized how what she said sounded "No, I mean we fell asleep, non-sexual. I mean, yes he was shirtless, but it wasn't like that" Mara said.
"Wait, what?" Amber asked. "Mara that's not possible"
"Why not?" Mara asked
"It's not possible to fall asleep with a guy shirtless and have nothing happen" Amber said.
"It is if you have self-control, if you had self control, maybe you and Mick wouldn't have broken up with you last time" Mara said. Amber glared at her.
"What happens between Mick and I is not your concern" Amber said
"What happens between Alfie and I is not your concern" Mara said
"So there is something happening between you two" Amber said
"Why does it matter?" Mara asked.
"It doesn't" Amber said
"Uh huh, so that kiss you had last month was nothing?" Mara asked
"That was for acting" Amber defended.
"Not the Romeo and Juliet kiss, which was totally low on your part, but still unsurprising" Mara said. "The one by the pool when you let him get to second base"
"Will you shut up?" Amber whisper-yelled. "I don't wanna know how you know that, but you can't let anyone hear that. I swear to God Jaffray I will end you"
"You think you're so tough, but you're really a dumb girl with a pretty face that won't get you but so far in life" Mara said. "I hope you die alone, because you don't deserve Mick, or Alfie. You're a dirty whore"
Amber slapped her without thinking about it and Mara stood shocked as Amber walked out of the bathroom with her head held high but her heart hurting.
BFF...UYFMM! Best Friends Forever... Unless You Fuck My Man! That's what Barbie's thinking. Apparently Little M didn't get the memo that Queen Bee's labeled Mick and Alfie as Barbie's property. (More like Barbie's bitches). Big A's trying to get off her leash so he can dog around with other girls, but Barbie's not allowing it. Don't push her, she's got long pink claws and will totes scratch out your eyes. -Jackal
Fabian walked to the Warehouse. He was extremely interested in how Nina was doing. She seemed like a smart and strong girl, and she sounded like she was holding up just great.
"Nina?" He called.
"Fabian? Hey" she said.
"How are you doing?" He asked
"I'm fine. It's Monday right?" Nina asked
"Yeah"
"Did my teachers ask about me?" Nina asked
"No, they know you have the initiation" Fabian said
"And they allow this to happen?" Nina asked angrily. "Who's running this school? The students or the adults?"
"Not all of the students" Fabian mumbled.
"Yeah, I get it. Just Amber, Alfie, Jerome, and Patricia" Nina said bitterly.
"Once you pass your initiation, you won't have to worry about them" Fabian said.
"But I don't understand it" Nina said.
"Yeah, I get that it's frustrating. It must be really bad in there" Fabian said.
"Tell me more about your initiation" Nina said.
"Well, they told me I had to stay in the attic for a week, much like yours. It was cold and dark all the time. At one point I got sick. I decided I should go exploring through the stuff, and what I found for the most part, was lots of books and dead animals. On the fifth night, I thought I heard voices. It got really creepy"
"Fabian" a voice said. It was soft, barely audible. "Fabian"
"Fabian" a different voice said.
"FABIAN" the first voice screamed. It made him jump ten feet in the air.
"Leave now!" A deep voice said. "Leave now or suffer the consequences"
"The consequences are most severe" another deep voice said.
"FABIAN LEAVE" the first voice screamed. It was definitely a womans voice.
"RUN! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED" the second voice said, also a girl.
"LEAVE NOW"
"SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES"
"THEY ARE MOST SEVERE
"RUN"
Fabian was shaking, bust stood his ground. Then, suddenly, there was banging. Lots of banging all around him. And evil cackles.
"WE WARNED YOU" all four voices said. He saw shadows around him and books were being propelled his way. One hit him and he fell to the ground. He couldn't stay there anymore. He ran down the stairs and opened the attic door, about to step out, when he turned around to see Joy, Patricia, Jerome, and Alfie laughing hysterically behind him. They were wearing all black.
"You should have seen your face" Alfie laughed. The others joined him.
"What's the matter Fabian? Scared of a little ghost?" Patricia teased.
"Fabian, leave!" Joy said in a scared and over dramatic voice. It was the first voice he heard.
"Run Fabian!" Patricia said. She was the second voice.
"Leave now or suffer the consequences" Jerome said, he was the third voice.
"They are most severe" Alfie said, the fourth voice.
"H-how d-di-did" Fabian started, he couldn't get his words out.
"What was that, Stutter Rutter?" Jerome asked and the others laughed some more.
"H-how did yo-you get up th-there so quietly?" Fabian asked.
"Your teeth were chattering so loud it probably blocked out the sound of us coming up" Alfie said
"You leaving?" Joy asked. "Because if you leave now, you minus well march yourself right down to another house"
"No, I'm staying" Fabian said.
"Time for supper" Trudy called from downstairs.
"Now we have to go, the food is calling our name" Alfie said
"You look hungry" Patricia said with fake sympathy.
"We'll be sure to bring you back some food" Jerome said, though Fabian knew he was lying. Joy walked through first, pushing past him. Patricia followed bumping his shoulder. Jerome pushed him down and Alfie closed the door in his face.
"That sound terrible" Nina said.
"It was" Fabian said.
"I can't believe Joy did that" Nina said. "She's so nice now"
"Well, she wasn't always nice" Fabian said. "They only do that for the newbies. They're not that bad when you get to know them"
"Well, we'll see won't we" Nina said.
"Yeah" He then took a shaky deep breath. "How about after you pass, I'll take you out for dinner"
It became quiet, and Fabian's heart was beating double time.
"Like a date?" Nina asked
"Yeah, or not. I mean, if you want to. I get it if you don't, we did just meet after all-" Stutter Rutter choked on his words.
"Yes" Nina said. "You're the only one who's bothered to speak to me all weekend"
"Really? Yes!" Fabian said. "I have to go now, but I'm looking forward to next Saturday"
"Me too!" Nina said. Fabian smiled as he made his way to the house.
Aw, love is in the air! But wait, I thought Lonely Boy had a thing with Little J! Who has his heart? The dopey looking new girl who's only been here five minutes? Or the washed up and apparently purified Queen Bitch? -Jackal
"What's got you so smiley?" Joy asked sitting next to Fabian on the couch in the living room. She refused to read anything Jack posted.
"Oh nothing. I was just visiting Nina" Fabian said.
"She's really nice" Joy said ignoring the pang of jealousy and seeing it as a nice friendly visit. "I wonder if we can get her out of there early"
"Don't even think about it" Patricia snapped surprising the two of them and appearing out of thin air.
"Isn't that kidnapping or something though" Fabian said, Patricia shrugged.
"I've been to juvie, remember?" she said glaring at Joy.
"Patricia I'm sorry" Joy said again
"Save it" Patricia said and walked off. Fabian, who was feeling awkward now, left and went into his room.
"Juvie huh?" Eddie asked Patricia coming into her room. "Maybe you're more badass than I thought"
"Shut it Krueger" Patricia said. "It's not even funny"
"Whoa calm down" Eddie said
"No! Everything's just one big joke to you, isn't it Sweety Jr?" Patricia spat. "Being in that place was real and I'm not going to laugh about it"
"Ok, ok" Eddie said sadly. It seemed like every attempt to connect with Patricia she would just push him away.
"Great, now go away" Patricia said. "Don't you have a project to do with Amber?"
"Uh, yeah" he said making his way to Amber's room while Patricia went down to Fabians. Eddie went in Amber and Nina's room to see Amber and Mick making out. "Whoa, PDA"
"What do you want Sweety?" Amber said annoyed.
"My last name is Miller remember?" Eddie said. "Which is why we were paired together for this project Millington"
"Ok fine" Amber said sending Mick away. "So, chemistry"
"What should our theme be?" Eddie asked
"It could be about dating! If that's not chemistry, what is?" Amber asked
"I don't think that's what he wants" Eddie sighed.
"No look" Amber said trying to explain. "When I kiss Mick, I feel warm and fuzzy and sparks fly"
"Ok..." Eddie said
"That's chemistry" Amber said. "But when I kiss other guys nothing"
"I still don't think-" Eddie started. Amber kissed him on the lips surprising him stiff.
"See? Nothing" Amber said. "There's no chemistry there"
"What was that?" Eddie asked after recovering.
"I was proving a point" Amber said.
"What if one of Jack Jackals many spies saw us?" Eddie said. "I do not want to deal with Mick"
"Relax, no one saw" Amber said. "By the way, you have lipgloss on your lips. I'd tell you to leave it, but I don't think it's your style"
Eddie wiped his mouth furiously trying to get all evidence of Amber's point proving off of him. Alfie and Mara were working on their project together as well.
"What do you want to do?" Mara asked. "It's just an introduction project to see what we know"
"I guess I'm not doing anything, seeing as that's all I know about chemistry" Alfie said.
"Come on Alfie think" Mara said.
"We should do something that has to do with food" Alfie said. Mara rolled her eyes, but then got an idea.
"Yes! What if we made ice cream?" Mara asked
"Can't we just buy some?" Alfie asked
"No, we make ice cream as our project" Mara said.
"That's chemistry?" Alfie asked. Mara nodded. "I'm in!"
"Ok great!" Mara said.
"I told you we work well together" Alfie said. They high-fived just as Jerome walked in.
"Oh don't let me interrupt you" Jerome said coldly.
"Mara can I talk to Jerome?" Alfie said. She nodded and left. "What's your problem?"
"I don't have a problem" Jerome said
"Obviously you do" Alfie said. "People don't go around mad for no reason"
"Did you forget I hate everyone and everything? I get mad easily" Jerome said.
"Is it something I did?" Alfie asked
"No" Jerome said.
"Is this about the Mara thing?"Alfie asked
"I don't know what you're talking about" Jerome said. Alfie eyed him.
"You like her" Alfie said. "Now everything makes sense"
"I do not" he said.
"It's ok Jerome, you can admit it to me. I won't tell anyone" Alfie said. Jerome looked at him before leaving the room.
"Ok, so we're going to need milk, whipping cream" Mara listed as she came back into the room. "Sugar, Vanilla, Sodium Chloride, two ice cubes, a ziplock bag, and a thermometer"
Eddie and Amber were still brainstorming.
"What about that colorful fire stuff?"
"Ugh what's wrong with my idea?" Amber asked
"That's not what he wants" Eddie said
"But it's all I know and that's what this project is about" Amber said. "I mean, do you even know how to make colorful fire?"
"No" Eddie admitted. "But I can google it"
"C'mon Eddie!" Amber pleaded
"No" Eddie said
"Please"
"It's not chemistry"
"Is so"
"You didn't even prove it right!" Eddie exclaimed
"How?" Amber asked.
"You and Mick suck face like vacuum cleaners, of course it feels like chemistry" Eddie said.
"Fine" Amber said. She practically leaped on Eddie and shoved her tongue down his throat. Eddie was, again, shocked, but got over it. He didn't like that she was on top and quickly flipped her over. Next thing he knew she was taking his shirt off and he broke the kiss to lift her shirt above her head. He unzipped her skirt when-
"Oh my God"Jerome said at the doorway surprising them both. The two separated and went to find their clothes, which were scattered all around the room. "What is this?"
Amber and Eddie looked at each other nervously before responding. "Chemistry"
"Oh this is rich!" Jerome smiled. "Just wait until I tell Mick"
"No wait!" Amber stopped him by closing the door and blocking it. "We'll do anything, just don't tell"
"Oh? Anything?" Jerome asked looking at Eddie. He nodded. "Hmm, Ok"
He left and the two looked at each other.
"N-No chemistry right?" Amber asked. Eddie nodded.
"No chemistry" Eddie responded.
Patricia and Fabian finished and Fabian sat on his bed, thinking. His date was on Saturday and he was a nervous wreck. It took all of his confidence just to ask her out, and that wasn't much confidence.
"Hey Fabian" Mick said.
"What's up?" Eddie asked coming into the room.
"I need advice" Fabian said. "On girls"
"Maybe we need all of the guys" Mick said. He called Jerome and Alfie in the room.
"Hey, Fabian needs girl advice" Eddie said when the two came in.
"I asked Nina out" Fabian said.
"Nina? I thought this was about Joy" Mick said. Fabian blushed.
"No it's about Nina" Fabian said. "I really like her. I want the date to go well"
"Charm her" Eddie said.
"I say hit and run. No need for the drama of a relationship" Jerome said.
"No, I don't want her to just be a sex victim" Fabian said.
"Bring her roses" Alfie said. "Give her a small gift"
"Make her feel like a Queen" Mick said.
"If you really don't want to screw this date up, learn about her" Eddie said
"Oh yeah!" Mick said
"How?" Fabian said.
"I don't know" Eddie said.
"If you really like her like you say you do, then you'll do what you have to" Jerome said. The boys left and Fabian thought about what they said some more. He quickly went up to Nina's room and looked through her stuff. He found a diary and read it as he began to take notes.
"Ok, so she's allergic to cats, but loves them anyway. She's also allergic to nuts. She loves looking at the stars, and she likes art. She used to sing but she stopped when she was ten" Fabian thought. He read some more and his eyes widened. "Oh my God"
Everyone has secrets. Secrets that aren't so bad that they may share with two or three people. and secrets that are too horrible to reveal to anyone. At Anubis, the secrets are deadly. They're secrets no one can know, and even I don't know all of them. But I know when someone's keeping them. I don't think Nina's as boring and 'Goody, goody' as she lets people believe. I think she'll fit in at the house just fine. -Jackal
