Disney Channel is REALLY starting to irk me. All of the shows were grew up with are gone and the stuff they're coming out with just is...no. I mean, really? What kind of show is 'My Babysitter Is A Vampire'? 'A.N.T Farm'? Disney is going downhill...Nickelodeon is where it's at! But I do miss Suite Life :( Not Hannah Montana though...that much...but still, Nickelodeon is BOSS. It's the WONDERFUL, AMAZING, FABULOUS, INCREDIBLE, AWESOME, KIND channel that brought us our beloved show, House of Anubis :D HOUSE OF ANUBIS IS DOUBLE TRIPLE QUADRUPILE QUINTEPEL (idt that's a word, but oh whell...) TIMES GOOGLE PLEX BOSSSSSSSSS!

Did you hear that since Demi Lovato is havin' so many problems, Sonny With A Chance is now So Random! and she's not on it? Sorry to all SWAC fans :(

I don't own HOA

BTW, I just made a beta profile :)

BTW, I know I said this would be a 2,500+ word one, but I have part one of ANOTHER final tomorrow (Third day in a row!)! So, unfortuantely, ZIS SHALL BE A ZNIPIT! I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause :( And, I have some trouble I wanna talk to my best friend Lily about but at the same time, I don't want to tell her about it. So what I do in a situation like that and I can't find anyone to talk to (or wants to talk to me, I can get boring to talk to [in my opinion]), I write about it [not publish, though] several times until I work myself hard enough to think of a good solution. And it helps to let it out. Thank you, my trusty pocket notebook! Sadly, I shall being putting you in the bin with the other twenty...three? filled up pocket notebooks and be moving on to my purple (fav color!) with white polka dots notebook :) I shall never forget you! Wow, I'm talking to paper put between cardboard bound with a swirly piece of copper/metal (tastes more like copper. there's a bit sticking of the top I got in my mouth once and it tasted like a penny), I'm such a loser.

~Mick's POV~

I walked into Anubis house overwhelmed with hapiness. There were so many things here that I missed.

One- Mara. My beloved Mara. I talked to her the whole summer, but it still wasn't enough.

Two- This year, I'm captin of the football team.

Three- Fabian finally asked Nina to be his girlfriend.

This year is definitly going to be the best yet.

I saw Patricia and Joy telling off Jerome at the top of the stairs. Oh god, what did that idiot do now? Wait, Joy's here? Cool.

"Hey guys," I smirked at Jerome's horror. I love striking fear into that git. It's odd though, his face was completely white. Usually, he just shakes a little or clneches his jaw... "Little twitchy there, Clark."

Jerome just clenched his jaw like he usually did and came downstairs then went and locked himself in his room.

"What's with him?"

"Nothing," Joy and Patricia answered quickly. Whatever.

"Is Mara here?" I moved on. They've always been weird.

"Yea, in our room," Patricia stuck her thumb in the direction of their room. I went up the stairs and told them thanks when I passed.

When I got to her room, the door was closed.

"Hey babes, can I come in?" I knocked on her door.

"Sure," Mara called. Sure? Sure? She didn't run and open the door, she said 'sure'?

I opened the door uneasily and saw that she was trying to hang a picture of her family up on the wall. That explained the 'sure'.

"Here, let me help you," I climbed up next to her on her bed and hung it up in the desired spot. "There we go."

"Thanks," Mara smiled. I smiled back and gave her a hug. When we pulled apart, I kissed her, but something felt off. Something felt...not right...she felt...hesitant...almost as if she didn't want to, like she didn't want me to be here...

I decided to ignore it, though. I'd later figure out that I'm not a man of many good decisions, and this would be one of those many bad ones.

~Mara's POV~

"Ah! Jerome, did you have to ruin everything? I was so excited about seeing Mick, and you tell me you love me, and now I'm unsure of what to do! Do I still love you? No, I can't...I never did..did I? No, of course not...your a jerk and have nothing going for you! Except, you can be so sweet and your eyes send me into a trance...no! No they don't! Mick's do! Mick's murky, cloudy almost gray eyes...nothing like your bright, beautiful, blue eyes. Ahh! Stop it Mara!" I debated with myself in my head and pretended as if I was actually talking to Jerome. And myself. I've officially lost it.

But now I feel really bad, I'm just pushing myself away from Mick. I love him, don't I? I do, right? I mean, I think I do...

"What's wrong babes?" Mick looked a little worried as we pulled apart from our kiss.

"Nothing," I lied. Thank god I'm a better liar than Nina.

"Okay then," Mick let it go. I heard Jerome's voice echo 'Meathead' in my head. I scrunched my eyes closed, but all I could she was the beautiful, long, and lanky blode haired, blue eyed boy in the room below me. I knew that wasn't a good sign (for Mick) from day one. I just wish I had heeded him warning...

A/N- A few things...

1) Is anyone interested in BetaReading this? I'm new, so I don't know how it works, and I got the slam on 'Fate Is Not A Lengthy Visitor' from an anonymous reviewer saying that my format sucks and that I used adieu wrong (which, according to my English teacher who is a published writer and has taught at universities and learned from the highest professors, said I was correct in my usage [It's a long story of how I explained it without mentioning HOA and FanFiction]. And Dictionary. com said I did it right so HA! but anyways...) Anyone up to it?

2) This is a Jara story, but since I;m not the greatest writer out there, I still find it a little hard to just focus on them. Do you think it would be okay for me to shift to an uprising couple that will come out of this and maybe a little Amfie? if you think it should be only Jara, that's cool, too. I'll see what I can do...

3) Neil Patrick Harris is an AWESOME singer and stage performer! He was in a stage production of Sweeney Todd {Did you know he's the Demon Barber of Fleet Street? They only say it about ten million times, but still AWESOME} and the production was filmed and we watched it and I LOVED it! Patti LuPone was in it too :) Still not as good as Into The Woods, though...

Well, I must be off to bed :(

I'll update tomorrow!
