-Chapter 16-
~Arabella~
I had no idea what was going on. I'm pretty sure something up and someone wasn't telling me that something. Truth is, if it's something dealing with Nina, I really didn't want to. She's my mother, and all, I get it... But, if getting to involved with her means being taken away from everything I've loved... Um, no, I'd rather not.
"So why were you screaming last night, exactly?" Alfie asks stuffing food in his face
"You seriously didn't tell them? After all that?" Mia looks at me
"Tell us what?" Mick asks
"We got into Anubis." Mia tells them
Everyone was happy, of course they would but, there was a look in most of their eyes, a look of wild fear, a burning flame of Terror... In almost all of them.
"What are we doing for Amber tonight?" Dad questions
"Yeah, what are you gonna do?" Mia asks " we are gonna go watch the new Thomas Sangster movie-"
"We are going to dinner, that new fancy place, and your not going to be watching Thomas Sangster, cause you are coming." Mick explains
"Seriously? Yay!" I say, excited
"So no hot guy movie marathon?" Mia tries to clear the air
"You do realize he's basically the same age as us, right?" Eddie asks
"Yeah but, he's like Patrick Swayze or Brad Pitt, or Johnny Deep, or Ryan Gossling, he will hot until the day he turns 45. Even then, he'll still look AMAZING in his old movies!" I exclaim
"My god, my daughter had been corrupted by old movies!" Fabian exhausts dramatically
"At least she hasn't hit the 80's movies yet!" Jake points out
"She's watching Dirty Dancing, she's basically there..." Mara says to her husband
"Whats "Dirty Dancing", mum?" Lil Jessamine asks
"Nothing, sweetie." KT tells the little girl
"Perfect nothing, but nothing." Willow laughs
"Call me when you get to Footloose, or Man in the Moon, or the Grease movies!" Trudy comes in
Alfie chokes on his food a bit
"Trudy!" Piper jokes
"Oh, I'm just kidding!" Trudy reassures them
She puts the plate of new food on the table and whispers in my ear,
"No, really, I love those movies!"
We both silently chuckle and exchange smiles.
If this was what the next 5 years of my life were gonna be, old pretty houses, amazing food, good education, my best friend, the greatest House Mother... Than I was glad signed up.
"Oh, did you hear the strange wind last night up in the attic, Mia? It sounded
like whispering..." I ask a few minutes later
"Wait... What kind of whispering?" Nina asks, I could see the fear clear in her now
"It sounded like a woman's, like someone from past Egypt. Someone from one of Dad's educational videos, she kept on says the same words, something like "chosen" and "21" or just "2" and "1" I can't be sure... Oh it was probably just my imagination!" I shrug it off
They all mumble their okays but, I could tell they weren't
A/N who loves sweet Arabella? Who thinks she's catching on to the rest of them? Any new thoughts on Arabella? Was it just the wind, or was someone really whispering to her, and if so, who? Who thinks- ah, I'm probably just gonna stop myself here, or I could go on for hours but, you know I enjoy reviews as much as I love fudge (I live for fudge). So, you know what to do!✌️.
