1I am disappointed, people. I give you two chapters in one day, and all I ask for in return is a couple of reviews! What do I get? Nothing. Just nothing! REVIEW OR MY FRIEND PAIGE (who is collaborating with me on this chapter) WILL HARM YOU! (not really because I think that's illegal, but still I won't update until I get a review!)

Fabian's POV

I was sitting in my room, tuning my guitar just before curfew. Of course, because nothing can ever be normal around here, when Victor started his annoying "pin drop" speech, something odd and completely confusing happened.

"It's ten o'clock!" Victor began, but he was cut off by the new girl, Sydney's voice.

"DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR CHILDREN ARE?" she shouted down. I heard Nina laughing in the background, saying how she totally gets that, but I am thoroughly confused.

"What does that even mean?" Jerome shouted up.

"It's an American thing!" Nina said, laughing again. Her laugh was so beautiful... shut up, Fabian! I said to myself, as though someone could read my thoughts. I do like her, I'll admit it. I've liked her since I first saw her running after that taxi man with her bag. That totally just ruined the romance of that description, didn't it?

The next day I walked to school with Nina. We were talking about Sibuna and the mystery, but I sort of wish we were talking about something else... preferably... us?

Unfortunately, that does not happen. The only thing that's holding me back is: HOW THE HELL DO I TELL HER I LOVE HER?

At school, I'm called into Mr. Sweet's office, and Nina continued on to her locker, giving me a concerned look like what did Fabian do? To be honest, I have no clue. I sat down in the seat across from Mr. Sweet and see that there's another student in the room. A girl with bleached-blonde hair up in a high ponytail and a purple sweatshirt on instead of her uniform jacket.

Apparently, Mr. Sweet wanted me to show her around. Okay, I can do that. I was just relieved that I wasn't in trouble or anything.

So I showed the new girl, Leah, to our first class of the day, History with Mr. Winkler. We were talking about the Panama Canal and which presidents favored it and which didn't. Apparently, Alfie was COMPLETELY spacing out because he said, "oh yeah, wasn't that, like, Moses? The dude who opened up the river and drowned those Egypt dudes?" Oh, Alfie.

Everyone laughed at the oblivious Alfie, while Leah just looked over at me, completely confused and asked "What is this school?"

"You should've been here last night!" I exclaimed, "it was thoroughly confusing!"

Leah laughed and Nina, on the other side of the room, shot me a look. One that said who's she? I shrugged and grimaced at her, a silent apology. I'd meet up with her after class and introduce her to Leah an let her know that I most definitely do NOT have a thing for this new girl. Besides, she was eyeing Mick across the room.

I saw Joy glaring at Nina, which is completely odd, first of all and second of all, how did I not notice that she was in my history class until now? Because I was too preoccupied with Nina, that's why!

I was walking with Nina after school, talking about my burning hatred for Brad Kavanagh, who, if you don't know, is a singer/songwriter. I don't know why I hate him, I just do, okay? Nina said something about some singer guy from America called Justin Beiber. Apparently, some girls love him and some hate him with a burning passion.

"Why do they hate Justin Beiber?" I asked.

Just then, Sydney walked by, heard my question, and replied in a very creepy whisper, "Because we have every right to hate Justin Bieber."

"There you have it!" Nina said, laughing.

"Is it just me or is that girl thoroughly confusing?" I asked

"Naw, I get her." Nina replied, which kind of implied that it was just me.

"Awesome," I muttered.

As we walked into the common room, everyone was sitting around the coffee table, playing a game.

"Hey Fabes, hey Neens, want to play some Funglish with us?" Amber asked.

"Yeah this game is pretty intense," Jerome said intensely.

Alfie was sitting on the couch, concentrating on his next move, when he reached into the couch cushion. Who knows why he did that, but he pulled out a highlighter! He uncapped it, looked around and started to sniff it. Oh that poor, mixed-up Alfie.

I shrugged and went to join the others at the coffee table and Nina did the same. I'm quite proud to say that I won. Yay me!

REVIEW! NO PLEASE THIS TIME, JUST DO IT! the Moses thing actually happened, except it was Paige's little brother not Alfie. The Brad thing is just a thought: what would happen if Fabian hated Brad Kavanagh? Funglish is a real game that I've never played, but I plan to today! I HATE JB AND SO DOES PAIGE! I DO NOT OWN HOA, BRAD KAVANAGH, JB, OR FUNGLISH! I do however own Leah and the other newbies and Jack, Paige's little brother. No I don't. REVIEW!
