A/N - Ok, so we all kinda figured that Eddie is going to sing! But what song? I've got a few ideas but I want your opinion!
Chapter 24 - Packages
Nina's POV
Last five days of school and my last five days in England. Everyone seemed so happy that I felt happy too, even though I was leaving. After a weird breakfast made by Mick, me, Jen, Amber and her Boo, walked towards the school. Since the four of us had our first lesson together me made our way to Chemistry. Let's just say Alphie blew up his eyebrows and singed Amber's hair. HUGE mistake. We were still laughing when I noticed everyone was really excited for something. I was thinking when it hit me right in the face. No literally, I walked into a banner. I stepped back and read it.
"Moonlight Dance! This Friday! Main Hall!" So Anubis wasn't having a mini party after all. I nudged Amvber who was heading towards Geography and pointed at the banner.
"Ambs, is that the party were going too?"
"No, we were going to have a smaller one... but I suppose we can go to that one! It will be so much fun!"
Normal Amber. Me and Jen walked into French and sat at the back. When Mrs. Andrews walked in, we were surprised. She was all dressed up, she did NOT look like a teacher. Instead of learning actual French we were looking at French designers! That's when she started talking about Dior and a big smile crept up on my face. On the screen she put a super cute dress picture and I instantly fell in love. I looked out of the corner of my eye and saw Jen with that dreamy look. Her hand carefully reached out as if to touch the dress. What little miss 'I'm in a dream' didn't hear was that she asked a question and Jen was basically volunteering for us two to answer!
"Ok, Jen and Nina come to the front and tell us what you know about Dior" I pushed Jen out of her seat and walked up to the front. Jen stood next to me and I began to talk.
"Christian Dior founded Dior and is a French designer. He has a fashion house in Paris and is well known for his late 1940's and 1950's hourglass designs for women after World War II. He recruited apprentices that are famous fashion experts today."
"He is now ranked 8th in the world's top designers. Christian died by a heart attack after choking on a fish bone. Dior now does clothes, accessories, perfumes and make-up. Instead of being famous in France, he is now known everywhere." Jen finished for me. I looked over to our teacher to indicate we'd finished and she nodded to take our seats.
"Now since I don't have to go over Dior, let's move on..." I drowned out her voice and thought. Is Eddie still coming with us too America? I must've been out pretty good since when someone slammed our table, I fell off my seat. Since everyone turned to see what the noise was they saw me on the ground. I stood up, smiled nervously, brushed myself off and sat back down. That's when I noticed the package. It was quite big. I got my scissors ready to cut it open, I mean what if it's from Dior? I chopped it up and saw three smaller parcels! We both mini screamed and attracted attention from people near us.
"Sorry" I whispered and turned back to Jen who was holding a sheet of paper. She passed it to me and it said:
Dear Nina Martin, Jen Sleek and Eddie Sweet
I trust you have received the plane tickets and are heading out this week. You will be staying in a paid for penthouse on the top of King's Hotel. You will be able to meet me on your first dress choosing and then you will have the afternoon off for yourself to look around Dior. Happy Modelling!
Bernaed Arnault - Chief Chairman
I looked over to the girl next to me who was showing the same face. We both screamed as loud as we could and sprinted out of class to find the third person of our group.
We ran into Geography and faces turned to us. Amber, Eddie and Joy were in this class.
"Miss, could we borrow Eddie Sweet for a minute? Mr. Sweet would like to see him" I spoke as if it was an important message. She let him go and Eddie just raised an eyebrow, packed his bag and joined us out in the hall.
"So what'sup?" He asked. I passed him the note and got his outfit.
"Omg!" He screamed. We laughed and I handed him the parcel with his name on.
"So I take it your still coming?" Jen asked. He kept nodding his head and jumping. Wow he sure was excited.
"Race you back to the house?" I asked. There was nothing better to do. I didn't feel like going back to class, especially after that scream. He nodded and I sprinted off into the distance, him catching up extremely fast and leaving Jen in the dust.
