Patricia's POV
After school was over, the house separated. Jerome went off somewhere with Mara and his little sister Poppy; Nina, Amber and Fabian went straight to the house and locked themselves in Nina's dorm; Alfie was researching something on aliens and trying to tell Joy about it, and Eddie and I were in his room.
I was laying at the top of Eddie's bed while he laid next to me on his laptop. I saw him open up the iTunes application and start searching through his music library. He smiled excitedly when he found the band he was looking for and clicked on one of their songs. He placed the laptop in front of us and we listened to the sound echoing around the room. He watched me intently while I listened to the heavy vibrations of the bass. I peered up at him and smiled, continuing to listen to the loud, punk band. After the song finished, he pressed the pause button and looked over to me.
"So? Did you like it?" He asked hopefully. I gaped at him and nodded quickly.
"How could I not? They're better than sick puppies!"
"And if I asked you to come to their concert with me this Friday you'd say yes, right?" He asked with a raised eyebrow. My eyes widened and I stared at him, mouth agape.
"Are you saying that we're going to their concert?" I asked excitedly. Eddie smirked proudly and nodded.
"If you wanna go, yeah. They're playing in London."
"Of course I wanna go!" I half-yelled excitedly. He laughed at my kid-on-christmas expression and smiled widely.
"I'll order the tickets then." He said. I smiled at him and he leaned over to kiss me and I happily started kissing him back.
Time flew through the rest of the afternoon. It seems like we had just started kissing when Vera had called dinner at seven! Eddie and I both sat down at the table across from each other. Eddie began piling massive amounts of food onto his plate before everyone else arrived at the table. The whole house stared at him as he kept filling his plate to the brim.
"Has anyone noticed that whoever Fabian's roommates with, they have a huge appetite?" Nina asked, watching with disgust as Eddie poured himself a massive glass of soda. The whole house laughed and watched as he finally finished putting food on his plate. As we all made small talk and ate our dinner, I noticed Jerome and Alfie exchanging sly glances to one another and peering at Eddie and I. I narrowed my eyes at them and crossed my arms over my chest.
"What are you two staring at?" I demanded. The two boys snickered and put their forks down on their plates. Jerome folded his hands on the table in front of him and Alfie mimicked the action.
"Well, dear Trixie, when Alfie was talking to Joy earlier, he found out some interesting information. Isn't that right, Alfred?" Jerome began, turning to Alfie. By now, the entire table had paused their conversations and were listening to what was going on.
"That's right, Jerome."
"And what did Joy tell you, Alfie?"
"Joy told me that Patricia and Eddie were now an item." Alfie clarified. Jerome fake gasped and turned to Eddie and I.
"Is that true? Did the goth pixie actually fall for someone?" He asked in his fake shocked voice.
"Shut it, you two." I snarled at them. My knuckles had gone white under the table, gripping the bottom of my chair.
"Well, Eddie, is it true?" Jerome asked, turning away from me. The entire table watched, interested in what Eddie would say. Putting down his fork and turning his neutral face into a cheeky smirk, Eddie looked square-on at Jerome.
"Yup." He answered simply. Before Jerome or Alfie could make another comment, a loud, girly squeal erupted from the other end of the table. We all turned and looked at Amber, who was practically jumping up and down in her seat.
"Yay! Oh my gosh, I have to make you two a scrapbook! First things first- you need a couple name. Which do you like better; Edtricia or Peddie?" Amber stated in all seriousness.
"Amber-" I began in my 'I'm-warning-you-to-shut-up-now' voice. Before I could finish my sentence, she started rambling on again.
"Personally, I like Peddie. Edtricia is hard to remember. I'll start working on you scrapbook tonight! Oh! I know what the cover should look like! It'll have..." Amber went on and on, describing every little detail of the scrapbook. I turned to Eddie, who looked quite amused by the whole situation, and made a motion with my head to leave. He smirked and nodded, both of us getting up from the table and leaving.
"Wait! Where are you going? We have to discuss..." Amber called, her voice becoming more distant with every step we took towards my room. I sat down at the end of my bed and Eddie sat up against my pillows.
"Well," I began with a sigh. "that was interesting."
"I thought it was funny." He said with smirk. I smirked back at him and raised an eyebrow.
"You would. That was the first time you've seen Amber being, well, Amber."
"You mean she's done that before?"
"Every time there's a new couple in the house. I can't count on one hand how many scrapbooks that girl has made." I said, shaking my head. Eddie's eyes widened and he laughed, amazed.
"She was serious about the scrapbook?" He asked, shocked. I nodded my head solemnly and he muttered, "Wow."
Later that night, Victor called lights out and gave his pin drop speech. Eddie kissed me goodbye and left the room, passing by Joy as she entered the room. I ignored her presence and started getting ready for bed.
"Are you gonna explain why you didn't come straight to me and tell me you were dating Eddie?" She asked in a prissy voice.
"Are you gonna explain why you were hitting on Eddie?" I fired back at her and spun around to face her. She pursed her lips and looked at her hands.
"You said there was nothing going on between you two..."
"And you said you liked Fabian." I pointed out and turned back around to my dresser.
"Listen, Patricia, if I had known you two had a thing, I never would've-"
"I know. When I heard you asking him on a date though, I was a little..."
"Jealous?" She supplied with small smile. I pursed my lips and got ready for bed, not daring to answer that question.
