Patricia's POV

I sat in the backseat of my dad's car as we drove into the school grounds. I was listening to my new favorite band T-wizzle's hit single Love the Way You Lie when we pulled up to Anubis." No funny business this year Patricia. I'm counting on receiving a parcel with all A's this term."

"Okay Dad, I'm not 3" I said walking away. Of course I had to be the first one here. This will be the perfect start to senior year. Just me Victor and Cobiere. As I walked to the kitchen I heard giggling coming from Eddie and Fabian's room. I put my ear to the door eavesdropping on whatever was happening on the other side.

Nina's POV

"Eddie stop!...That tickles!..." I cried out eyes full of tears and laughing my guts out.

"Admit it!"

"Never!"

"Say it! I'm the better dancer. Say Eddie Sweet is the best dancer in the group."

"Nope. I'm not sayin' it."

"Then I'll just keep tickling you, Neens..."he said holding me down to the bed. Just then, we heard the wood floor creak from behind the door. He kissed me before finally getting up to see who was there." Hey Trixie ." he said slipping out of the door and signaling for me to hide.

'Here we go again.' I thought as I slipped into his closet.

Eddie's POV

"Hello Eddie who's your friend?" said Patricia as I closed the door behind me.

"Nice to see you too." I said coldly.

"It's not that I care I'm just you know curious."

"Well if you must know, it was a close friend and...actually you don't need to know, see ya at dinner." I said seeing an error in what I was about to say.

"Not so fast Buzz Lightyear , I know I heard a girl in here where is she?" She pushed me back into the slightly cracked door causing me to knock it open. She continued to look under the beds and into the wardrobes but when she couldn't find Nina, she only had one place left to look... the closet. Thankfully, the other students began to arrive and she turned away to go greet Joy. " You're not off the hook yet Slimeball." she yelled walking out of the room. Nina stepped out of the closet almost on cue as the door closed behind Yacker.

"That was close." she said as I plopped down on my bed.

"Tell me about it. Why can't we just be Swaidy and Topin' all the time. We went public through them to the world but now we can't even do the same in reality with our friends." she came and laid down beside me and snuggling into my chest.

"I don't know. The right time will come hopefully"

"We knew this would be difficult but at least there's some ups about this." she looked up me waiting to see what I'd say." One I have you all to myself" she smirked "and two... we get to miss class for concerts."

Patricia's POV

I know Eddie is up to something. Maybe I'm jealous. Maybe I'm just psycho. But I know one thing for sure. Whatever tramp he's doing now better know what she lined up for.
