Nina
I was pacing around in her bedroom upstairs. I could hear all of the happy cheering and shouting coming from the Anubis residents downstairs. I was so close to Fabian, we were just one floor away from each other. The only problem I had was my entrance. I didn't exactly know how to make my entrance. Should I just walk in there and act all normal. Or maybe I should go Alfie-style and pretend to be a ninja. I heard a couple of footsteps coming up the stairs. I panicked and immediately dived beneath the bed.
"Thanks for carrying my bags Weasel," I heard the familiar goth-pixie say.
"No problem," Eddie said as he set down the bags.
There was silence for a couple minutes. I couldn't see anything, so I slowly crawled out from under the bed to see what the couple was doing. I cringed when she saw them. They were making out with each other. Gosh, I felt like such a pervert-stalker while watching them.
Ok, I had to make a plan. Because who knows how long those two will keep on making out? It could take hours, maybe even days. But anyways, here's the plan. Eddie had Patricia pushed up against a wall, and both of their eyes were closed, so I was basically going to try to sneak out of the room really fast.
Here goes nothing, I thought to herself as I slowly climbed out from under the bed. Just my luck, I managed to hit my leg on the bed post. Patricia and Eddie immediately pulled away from each other.
"What was that?" Patricia asked.
Eddie shrugged and looked around the room, luckily, I'd managed to instantly drop to the floor behind a pile of luggage's.
"Hey, did Mara unpack her stuff yet?" Eddie wondered. Crap, I forgot that I unpacked all of my stuff. Fortunately I haven't unpacked any personal items.
"She was still holding her luggage downstairs," Patricia replied in a slightly weirded out tone.
I heard them whispering to each other for a few minutes and then heard them leave the room. I sighed in relief as I crawled from underneath the bed and sat down onto my bed. What to do, what to do. All of a sudden, the door to the room burst open, and there stood the surprised students of Anubis house.
I felt like a deer caught in the headlights. "Oh, hey there guys," I said as I tried to act as if I hadn't disappeared for a whole year. We just stood there staring at each other.
Jerome threw a cookie at me. "OW!" I exclaimed as the cookie hit the side of my face.
"She's real," he loudly whispered to Alfie.
"Of course she's real you idiot," Joy said as she smacked Jerome on the head.
"Hey guys what's going-" Fabian and Eddie froze when they saw me. "Nina? Is that really you?" he asked in disbelief.
"She's real, look," Jerome said as he threw another cookie at me.
"OW!" I said as I rubbed my face again.
It took them a couple of seconds to process what was actually happening, and once they did, it was like a zoo. They all ran forward and jumped me and hugged me.
Fabian and two other girls just stood to the side. Fabian still seemed to be in shock, while the other girls just seemed to be awkwardly standing there waiting for us to finish.
After everyone filed out of the room to go downstairs, it left only Fabian and I.
"This isn't a dream is it?" Fabian checked.
I laughed. "I'm pretty sure it isn't."
We stood there in silence.
"Hey, about last year-" Fabian started.
I smiled. "You want to give Fabina another go?" I asked
Now we were both smiling. "I think I'd like that," he replied as he gave me a kiss on the cheek.
Fabian and I walked into the common room holding hands. Once everyone saw us, they erupted into loud cheers, but I noticed that Mara wasn't exactly smiling and seemed to be clapping out of politeness.
Everyone went back to having fun and chatting with each other. Until, the door slowly opened. We all froze in our place.
"Hello? Anyone in here?" a girl called. None of us said anything.
"Seriously? An empty house?" a male voice said.
The girl groaned. "Nice going idiot! You got the directions wrong!"
"You were the one holding the map," the male protested.
I noticed Eddie slowly move towards the entrance hall, Patricia following him. The two new students were too wrapped up in their argument to even notice Eddie and Patricia.
"Uh, hey," I heard Eddie say.
The two slowly turned to face Patricia and Eddie. The rest of us moved into the entrance hallway to greet the new students.
The girl smiled. "Oh hello there!" she cheerily said as she stuck out a hand to shake. "I'm Roxanne Mitchel. This guy over here is Connor Dickwood," she said as she threw a thumb in Connor's direction.
"Linwood! It's Connor Linwood!" Connor exclaimed.
Patricia frowned. "They're American," she whispered so only we could here.
I smiled. Only Patricia would worry about whether they're American or not.
I took a good look at the new students. Roxanne had long, dark brown hair and green eyes. Her light brown skin was glowing, and she had dimples when she smiled. I noticed that she had a small birthmark on her cheek. She was wearing a pair of blue, denim, skinny jeans, a plain shirt covered in flowers, and a pair of worn sneakers. She looked like your average American teenager.
Connor was pretty muscular and had blonde hair, which he wore in a faux hawk. He had bright green eyes and… a scar running down the length of his left arm. She noticed that he had only one dimple when he smiled. He wore denim jeans, sneakers, and an affliction t-shirt.
There was an awkward moment of silence.
"Soooo. Is this Anubis house?" Connor asked.
Eddie was about to answer when Patricia subtly kicked him in the shin. "No sorry, Anubis house is three houses over," she answered while smiling at them.
Roxanne frowned, "Darn, this place looked really cool, well I guess we'll be-"
The door burst open with so much force that I was surprised it didn't break.
A muscular looking boy walked into the room looking pissed. He had brown hair that was spiked up and he had blue eyes. He had a preppy style. He wore a navy colored polo, dark jeans and a pair of black vans.
He seemed to be muttering to himself about his stupid dad or something.
"And you are?" Patricia rudely asked. "By the way, thanks for trying to break down our door. Because we would just love to start the year off as the only house without a door," she said. Sarcasm dripping off every word.
The unknown boy glared at Patricia. "Ok listen up. My life is pretty messed up right now and I don't need some annoying brit nagging me. Got it?" he retorted, getting into Patricia's face.
"Dude, back off," Eddie said as he jumped in to defend Patricia.
Patricia looked as if she was ready to murder this guy. "Eddie, let me handle this," Patricia said as she stuck her hand out towards Alfie. Alfie said nothing as he handed her a soda can. Patricia smiled as she slowly opened the can and-
"Hello!" a peppy voice called from the open door. A string of curse words came from Patricia's mouth.
The girl walked in, followed by another boy with a hulking body.
The girl wore square, black rimmed glasses and was squinting at a piece of paper she was reading. Her black, curly, shoulder-length hair bounced as she walked. She smiled at all of us cheerfully, and I became fully aware of her heart shaped face and high cheekbones. She wore purple skinny jeans, a pink sleeveless top, and brown sandals.
The boy with a hulking body had dark brown hair that was gelled to the side. His blue-green eyes blended well with his slightly tanned skin. He wore gray cargo shorts, sneakers, and a moss green shirt of two skunks forming a heart.
"I'm Rosario Vincent," she said. Rosario looked over towards the other guy, expecting him to introduce himself. When he didn't, she lightly nudged him. "Joshua Decker," he quietly said.
"Crap! The Americans are invading our country!" Patricia exclaimed in annoyance. She turned to face the rude boy. "You never did tell us your name," she said.
Rude boy glared at Patricia, but replied. "Cameron Jones," he said in an irritated tone.
Patricia surveyed all of the newbies. "Listen up newbies, I only have a couple rules," Patricia started. Cameron fake snored. Patricia just ignored him and continued. "One, don't mess with my friends unless I tell you to. And rule two, Don't. Mess. With. Me," she slowly said. She smiled at the frightened faces of Joshua and Rosario. Roxanne and Connor looked slightly intimidated, while Cameron just looked amused.
"Wait, let me get this straight… is this Anubis house?" Rosario asked.
"Oh Anubis house is apparently three houses down," Roxanne said.
Patricia face palmed. "You idiots. Did you not see the Anubis sign when you walked in here?"
Rosario frowned. "Geez, you could've just said yes," she muttered.
Patricia opened her mouth to retort, but was silenced.
"THIS IS YOU FINAL WARNING BEFORE ALL OF YOU GET TOILET- oh," Victor said as he noticed the new students. "You must be the new students," he said as he made his way down the steps to greet them.
Rosario smiled. "Yes, and you must be-," she squinted at the paper. "Mr. Rodenmeen."
All of the Anubis kids burst out laughing, until Victor shot us a death look.
Victor cleared his throat. "I am the caretaker of this house, Victor Rodenmaar Jr," he corrected.
Rosario flushed and looked closer at the paper. "Oh. Looks like I need a pair of new glasses," she joked. Victor just glared at her.
Cameron stepped towards Victor. "Listen. I was just on a plane for 10 hours and all I want to do right now is unpack and unwind. So, where is my room?" he asked.
Trudy came sprinting down the stairs. "Don't worry Victor, I'll take care of them," she said as she ushered Victor up the stairs
Cameron sighed loudly.
"You should be thankful that you didn't get soaked with this soda," Patricia said. She and Cameron began to loudly argue. Eddie and Trudy tried to stop them, but everyone knows that Patricia never backs down from a fight. Patricia nearly through the soda can at Cameron's face.
The rest of us sighed. This was going to be a long year.
