I LOVE YOU GUYS! Your reviews make me soooo happy!
Enjoy!
"No," Jerome sighed, shaking his head from his position by Ambers dressing table. Amber sulked slightly "No wait, spin around," Amber spun slowly for him, but he shook his head once more "No, go change, put on number three," he looked down at the sheet of paper, crossing outfit two of the list.
"Okay," Amber sulked, going off into the bathroom to change again.
"You know, it's really weird that you're giving her fashion advice," Patricia spoke up. Jerome turned to her with only mild interest
"Oh I'm sorry, I thought you wanted to win this bet with Eddie?"
"I do," Patricia insisted
"Well then let me make Amber look irresistible so that Alfie will crack." He explained, as if talking to a five year old.
"I know." Patricia brought her knees up to her chest "I'm just sayin' that it's really weird."
"Well it's not like you could give her advice," Jerome shook his head chuckling lightly
"Hey!"
"What do you think?" Amber stepped out. Jerome appraised her
"Good…" he nodded "Spin," Amber spun. "It's almost perfect, just change the belt."
"Why are you even taking advice from him Amber? What does he know?" Patricia called, not able to let go
"Have you seen how he dresses?" she pointed out "If he wasn't so annoying and rude, he'd be mine," and with that she went to change her belt.
Line Break
"Nina, don't you see?" Fabian pushed, showing her the paper once more
"No, sorry. I really don't know," she shrugged
"There are two chosen ones Nina," he grinned
"Well, who's the other one?"
"Well, I'm not sure, but I think….I think it's Mara." He said excitedly
"Mara?" she repeated, "Fabian are you sure?"
"Well, let's think. It's her or Joy right? Because Joy was so close to being born at the same time as you. But Mara, is 1/7 Egyptian, she saw Senkhara and she can read hieroglyphics,"
"She can?"
"Who do you think translated this?"
"So you think it's really her?"
"I wish there was some way we could know for sure," he sighed. Nina smiled slyly
"Maybe there is…"
Line Break
"Hey Alfie!" Amber called from down the hall as Alfie was about to walk into the kitchen. Alfie stopped and turned, his eyes almost popping out of his head.
Amber was normally very beautiful but now….now she looked breathtaking. She was wearing a light blue summer dress with matching shoes and a pearl necklace, and black belt. Her hair looked long and golden. She looked like a princess.
"Wow." Alfie managed, just staring. Amber smiled
"Thanks, Alfie I wanted to talk to you,"
"S-sure, about what?" he walked down the hall towards her
"You really hurt my feelings yesterday, taking Mara's side,"
"Who?" he asked, still dazed by her appearance "Oh, no Amber, no I still love you."
"Really?" she asked, her script memorised by Jerome imprinted into her mind. He had made her practise so many times.
"Really. Listen I'm really so-"
"Hey Man!" Eddie called, walking out of his room to see them "What are you doing?"
"I was about to apologise to my lady," he shrugged. Eddie stared at him in horror
"What about our bet?"
"What does that have to do with anything?" Alfie asked stupidly. Eddie sighed at him, grabbing his arm and wheeling him away from Amber
"Hey no fair!" Amber called after them "That's cheating!"
"Talk to the hand sister!" Eddie called, not turning back as he dragged Alfie up the stairs and into Mara's room.
"Ever heard of knocking?" Joy asked as the two of them walked in
"What?" Eddie asked, "Why would you ask that?" Joy just rolled her eyes, stepping sideways and walking out the door, closing it behind her.
"What are you two doing in here?" Mara asked, standing up from her cross-legged position on the bed.
"Alfie was about to apologise to Amber," Eddie sighed, sitting Alfie on the bed
"Alfie!" Mara exclaimed, standing beside Eddie into front of him.
"She looked amazing! You can't blame me!"
"Amber always looks amazing, what was different this time that made you want to apologise?" Mara asked curiously
"I dunno, but she looked…oh my gosh,"
"Alfie…did she sound like herself?"
"What?"
"Did she act like she normally would?"
"Well, now that you mention it," Alfie thought hard "She didn't hug me after I complimented her, and she normally does. She asked me if I really loved her. She's never done that before,"
"I bet Jerome did this," Mara shook her head, fuming.
"He really wants to win," Eddie stated
"Well we have to do something!" Alfie called
"Right, who's the weakest on their side?"
"Hmm, Patricia's pretty strong willed, Amber won't fall for anything. I'd have to say Jerome, sorry Mara,"
"Why sorry?" she asked Eddie, looking up at him
"You're gonna have to make him apologise,"
"Make Jerome apologise to me? With a bet going on? I can't do that! He never loses anything!"Mara cried
"Well, we'll just make you look beautiful, like Amber," Eddie stated. Alfie shook his head like crazy, his sixth sense awakening. Eddie frowned at him, looking away, to see a very angry Mara
"Make me pretty like Amber?" she repeated, head tilted. Eddie widened his eyes in realisation
"I didn't mean it like that," he said quickly, raising his hands in defence. Mara glared at him a moment longer, before sighing, her shoulders slumping.
She sat down beside Alfie on the bed "No, no, its fine," she said "I mean I hold no place next to Amber, she's beautiful,"
Eddie sat on the other side of her "Don't say that," he shook his head "You are just as beautiful as Amber,"
"I'd say the same thing if she wasn't my girlfriend," Alfie nodded. Mara laughed, wrapping her arm around the two guys
"Thanks guys," she smiled, they smiled back "But what have we gotten ourselves into?"
"It's all gonna end in tears," Alfie agreed
"Much like the Titanic," Eddie sighed. They both turned to him, laughing.
Jerome listened from outside the door, knuckles turning white.
Who do you want to win? Mara, Eddie, Alfie or Jerome, Patricia, Amber? YOU CHOOSE!
