The Ball. The Kiss. The Karaoke.

Hey everyone! This isn't my first fan fiction, in fact I have one that's over a thousand pages long and about eight more that are close to three hundred pages if not over already. But… this is my first fan fiction on here, so… take it easy on please. If I get a lot of reviews I may do some more songs… let's see how this one goes first.

In this short song-fic takes place at the masquerade ball. But it's a little different. For instance I'm leaving the mystery out (I know… bummer. But I want to focus on Fabina's romance.) And Fabian and Nina are still dating. Things have been rocky with Joy, she's been trying to steal Fabian from Nina since she arrived at the beginning of term. Also Eddie came and Mick never left. Couldn't bear not having Mick here.

The song used is "Impossible" by Shontelle and "True Love" by Loek Beernink or some know it as "Ware Liefde" by Loek Beernink. "Impossible" is sung to Fabian. While Fabian sings "True Love" to Nina.

I DO NOT OWN HOUSE OF ANUBIS! Though I wish I did, I DO NOT! Or the song "Ware Liefde" by Loek Beernink, or "Impossible" by Shontelle. ENJOY!

Nina's POV

I should've seen it coming. The day Fabian and Joy kiss. How could I not? I mean it was so obvious that he cared about her. Every time I voiced my opinion about her to him, he'd shoot it down and say I was being overly paranoid. Every time I told him about what she said to me, or what she did, he'd say that she just had to warm up to me first. Was it really that? NO. She wanted me out of the way so she could get to Fabian, and that's exactly what she did. She thought I stole him, though they never were dating, and ever since she came back her one goal was to win Fabian's heart. And as I stare at the two of them kissing at the masquerade ball, oblivious to the world around them. I start to feel my world fall apart, as it feels as if Joy took a hammer and pounded my heart to shreds.

It seemed like a life time. That is until they pulled apart. I stood speechless, though so many things ran through my head. Why? Why would Fabian kiss her? I had just came in from outside, seeing that Fabian put his foot in his mouth; AGAIN. I loved that boy to death, but he really earned the title "Stutter Rutter" for sure. See, the problem started when Jerome sold me and Joy the same dress. Mental note: Kill Jerome later for ruining the ball. Joy, Fabian, and I went to hunt him down. Once we did, he turned the tables around.

"We want our money back, Jerome!" Joy exclaimed as she tapped her foot. That was one thing we could agree on.

"Jerome, you must give them their money back. That wasn't right of you to do." Mara instructed, who was standing right next to Jerome. Thank you Mara, for having Jerome's heart wrapped around your little finger.

"But aren't we all missing the main point here?" Jerome tried to turn the tables.

"And what is that?" I asked, the rage on my face was priceless.

"That both girls… look absolutely stunning!" Jerome exclaimed gesturing to both girls, "Don't you think so Fabian?"

Both Joy, and I turned to face Fabian. My arms folded across my chest, and Joy's hands on her hips.

"I think everything is stunning, and everyone." Fabian stuttered out. Oh Fabian… don't you know you're supposed to back your girlfriend up on everything.

Bright side is we did get our money back. Down side is, we still were stuck in the same dress, both competing for Fabian's love. The only differences were I was dating him, and I had a prettier mask then she did. However after that little episode of not backing me up I stormed outside. I heard Joy try to comfort him, but he just had walked away.

Now I'm standing here, watching them break away from a kiss. A kiss that should have been shared between me and Fabian. And I can't help but hear the own cracks my heart is making my the millisecond.

I see Fabian stare at Joy in shock, but a dream shock. Then, I watch his gaze as it goes up to my face. His jaw drops. He's speechless, just like I am. It must have been a few minutes before he says anything.

"Wait… Nina?" He asked scratching the back of his head. I couldn't take it. I bolted out the door, I didn't want to hear his story explanation of how he didn't know it wasn't me. Because you know who you are kissing.

I ran out into the hallway where I found Amber and Alfie kissing. I hated to pull my BBF away from her boyfriend, to help me cope, but I was desperate.

"Amber…" I croaked, I more tears fled from my eyes and down my face. I watched her pull apart from her kiss she shared with Alfie, just like I had watched Fabian and Joy.

"Nina, what's wrong? What happened?" Amber hurriedly asked as she rushed to my side, Alfie followed behind her. He was sweet when he wasn't pranking someone.

"Fabian kissed Joy." I sobbed, "I should've saw it coming." Amber dragged me into a hug and rubbed my back comfortingly.

"What do I do?" I asked as I wiped my eyes, after a few minutes.

"The only thing you can do. Make your love clear to him." Amber smirked as we sat down against the old school walls.

"You mean, revenge?" I asked dreading the response. I had always been taught never to stoop to the other person's level. That revenge was for the birds, and that revenge only led to a full blown out war.

"No. Listen, I am in charge of this ball. I get to say what happens next, and I say we have a karaoke ball." Amber smirked. I could see the little blonde wheels spinning in her head. She was smart and ditzy at the same time, a lot of people didn't give her any credit. "You are going to sing a song to Fabian, which explains the pain he just caused you and how you trusted him with your heart. How that a major trust is gone now, and that he really cut a wound deep into your heart."

"Now why would I do that?" I asked stubbornly. I really wasn't in the mood for singing.

"Because, it's good therapy for you. Besides, it will make him realize what he's giving up." Amber replied a bright twinkle coming into her large chocolate brown eyes. I could never say no to those eyes.

"Alright, fine I'll do it." I gave in as I stood up.

"YEAH! I'll go tell Mr. Sweet our plans!" Amber exclaimed giddy as she ran off into the auditorium. I followed behind her with Alfie walking beside me. Was I really doing the right thing? For the time being it was.

I walked into the auditorium just in time to see Amber prance onto the stage. My heart started to be out of my chest, as I glanced all around for Fabian. He was nowhere to be found. I heard Amber tap on the microphone and my heart was beating literally almost out of my chest.

"Attention! Attention everyone!" Amber announced into the mic. The whole room became dead silent as everyone focused on Amber who was in a peach colored dress at the microphone on the stage.

"First of all, are you all having fun?" Amber exclaimed as all the students plus faculty went wild, "Second, who's ready for some karaoke?" Again all the students went wild. "Karaoke will begin in a few minutes time. If you'd like to sing, head to the sign up table at the entrance. There Mara will put your name on the list." Amber instructed as she exited the stage, to return to me and Alfie.

"I couldn't find Fabian in the crowd." I stated timidly, I was really disappointed. Had he gone off with Joy somewhere?

"Don't worry, I saw him." Amber smiled, as she placed a hand on my shoulder. "He's sitting in the corner with Mick and Eddie. I think he's crying." Amber said slightly annoyed.

I nodded, I was overjoyed that Fabian wasn't with Joy. However, I was sad at the same time. I didn't mean to make him cry either.

"Alright Nina… Earth to Nina! We need to get you on stage. What song are you singing?" Amber asked as she prepared to write it down.

"Um… how about 'Impossible' by Shontelle?" I asked, it had all the elements Amber said the song needed to have.

"Perfect, now go wait by the stage." Amber instructed as she hurried off to the DJ, then back to the stage.

"Good luck Nina." Alfie smiled as he gave me an 'Alfie Hug'. I smiled as I made my way to the stage, as Amber came up beside me.

"You ready for this?" Amber smiled as she hugged me once again. She climbed the stairs to the stage, the mic in her hand.

"Karaoke of the Masquerade Ball is now beginning. First up, singing 'Impossible' is Nina Martin. I hope you enjoy it." Amber smirked as she handed me the microphone, passing her on the stage.

This was it, not turning back now. My heart kept beating faster, and faster. My face was becoming flush, and I started to get dizzy. Stage fright all over again, just like in the third grade. However, I couldn't pass out like then. I have a job to do. Faintly the music started to come on, as flashbacks of me and Fabian started to swirl in my head. I had to do this.

"I remember years ago
Someone told me I should take
Caution when it comes to love
I did, I did

And you were strong and I was not
My illusion, my mistake
I was careless, I forgot
I did

And now when all is done
There is nothing to say
You have gone and so effortlessly
You have won
You can go ahead tell them

Tell them all I know now
Shout it from the roof tops
Write it on the sky line
All we had is gone now

Tell them I was happy
And my heart is broken
All my scars are open
Tell them what I hoped would be
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible

Falling out of love is hard
Falling for betrayal is worst
Broken trust and broken hearts
I know, I know

Thinking all you need is there
Building faith on love and words
Empty promises will wear
I know, I know

And now when all is gone
There is nothing to say
And if you're done with embarrassing me
On your own you can go ahead tell them

Tell them all I know now
Shout it from the roof tops
Write it on the sky line
All we had is gone now

Tell them I was happy
And my heart is broken
All my scars are open
Tell them what I hoped would be
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible!
Ooh impossible (yeah yeah)

I remember years ago
Someone told me I should take
Caution when it comes to love
I did

Tell them all I know now
Shout it from the roof tops
Write it on the sky line
All we had is gone now

Tell them I was happy
And my heart is broken
All my scars are open
Tell them what I hoped would be
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible

I remember years ago
Someone told me I should take
Caution when it comes to love
I did..."

I had sung the song perfectly, not missing a key or beat. The whole student body and faculty had taken notice and applauded and cheered wildly. I searched for Fabian's reaction. He was standing by the door, tears were still in his eyes. I guess the song had some impact on him.

I slowly made my way down the stage, awaiting what was to happen next. What I heard astounded me.

"Great job! That rendition of 'Impossible' was sung by the wonderful and beautiful Nina Martin. Up next, we have singing 'True Love' by Fabian Rutter." Amber announced into the mic. Uh Oh.

So… what'd you think? Loved it? Hated it? Want me to continue? Tell me what you think, by reviewing! Positive and Negative feed are both appreciated. The next chapter will be Fabian singing "True Love" by Loek Beernink. Thanks for reading.
