House of Anubis: Reunion

Summer House

"And send." With a click of a button, Alfie Lewis sent off the message to his fellow, former Anubis House buds and Trudy.

He scrolled to make sure he sent it to everyone. Then, his eyes fell on Nina's contact email. "No, no, no! It wasn't suppose to send to her!"

He was talking to himself even though it wouldn't really help. He was too late. Nina was the first one to respond, with the words, "I'll be there. Can't wait to see you guys again! Nina xoxo".

Alfie did a huge sigh. He was a college student, but still the same old, clumsy Alfie.

***********************

By the next day, he received response emails from everyone except for Amber who was most likely busy, and Mick, who was most likely busy, and Trudy, who probably needed a summer to herself. He understood them not coming, but he didn't want Fabian and Mara to come when Nina will be there too. Fabian and Mara were a thing now, and Fabian still never forgot Nina, no matter how much he lies about it. Alfie already had his bags packed and headed to the summer house they would vacation at. He had to make sure everything was tip top before the others came. It was a huge house by a lake that already had canoes. He had the people he rented it from put food in there already so they wouldn't have to run to the store. Everything looked awesome and ready. Boys would be downstairs, girls would be upstairs, and there would be no curfew. They'll never have to hear a stupid pin drop. Alfie placed his bags in the room he would be in. Nobody had to share rooms because there were that many rooms. At night, Alfie heard the doorbell. There was Nina, Eddie, and KT, the Americans. They all had the same flight from America, and Nina and KT got to know eachother. Eddie also gave Nina back the necklace with the eye of Horus on it. Alfie let them in. The three others stared in awe. They went to go find their bedrooms and get some sleep since they couldn't sleep on the plane. It was stormy on their way to England.

***********************

Everyone else showed up late in the morning, around the same time. Alfie quickly ran outside and stopped Fabian before he entered.

"Hey, Fabian," Alfie greeted. "Do you think that maybe you can keep your relationship on the down low? We don't want to think all about relationships on our first day, right?"

"Okaaay...I guess."

"Good." Alfie patted him on the shoulder and raced back inside, up the stairs.

Nina was just getting out the shower. She wrapped a towel around her and opened the bathroom door to go to her room when she saw Alfie waiting, out of breath.

"Alfie, what the heck?!" Nina screamed.

"Shh," Alfie shushed. He hoped the others downstairs couldn't hear it do to all the chatting. "Can you kind of hide out of sight so that it will be a surprise that you're here?"

"Yeah, just go away!" Nina pushed Alfie towards the stairs and hurried to her room.

Downstairs, Eddie and KT were meeting up with everyone else that arrived.

"At first I thought this was stupid, but it might be pretty cool," Patricia told Eddie after they did a little kiss.

"When do you not think something is stupid, Yacker?" Eddie joked.

Alfie went downstairs to the crowd of his fellow, former Anubis House residents. He found Jerome and started talking about everything that he was waiting to tell Jerome in person, which was a lot. The one thing that stopped him was when Willow came and gave him a kiss. They did go to the same college, but he hadn't seen Willow in like two weeks. He was glad to get that kiss from his girlfriend. Soon, everyone found their room. Joy accidentally went to Nina's already taken room, and she screamed with-well joy-when she saw Nina. She immediately went to Nina and squeezed her.

"Oh my god, you're here, Nina!" Joy celebrated. All the other girls could hear so they came in and welcome Nina.

"Hi, I'm Willow," Willow introduced herself.

"Nina," Nina replied.

"So I've heard."

Mara wasn't as happy. She knew that Nina and Fabian still liked eachother. This probably wasn't going to be her easiest summer.

"Is Fabian here?" Nina interrupted the screaming and laughter.

"Yeah, he's right-" Patricia was about to finish, but then she looked back at Mara. "Nope, haven't seen him."

The other girls started saying they hadn't seen him either.

"Why don't you stop thinking about boys, and we'll talk about what we're gonna do this summer!" Willow changed the subject, catching on.

---------------------

Meanwhile, all the boys were in the kitchen.

"This food is amazing," Jerome complimented, stuffing his mouth with brownies and mini cupcakes.

"That's not food, that's junk," Fabian pointed out.

Jerome went over to Fabian, put his arm around him, and he said with a half-full mouth, "You don't know my type of food, dude." He went back over to the plate of sweets.

"Hey when was the last time you actually let loose and got sugar induced from pounds of candy?" Alfie asked him.

"Let me think...when I was eight."

"And eleven years is way too long. What do you guys say-a bro-party tonight, just us four partying all night."

Jerome and Eddie cheered, but not Fabian.

"I don't know," Fabian doubted.

"Come on," Eddie encouraged. "You don't want to be known as the bro that was too chicken for a little party-maybe not even a party, maybe a gathering."

The boys started making chicken noises until Fabian finally said, "Fine. I'll join the gathering."

They all cheered, with Fabian joining in a little bit later. When they all stopped cheering, Fabian could've sworn he had heard Nina's voice. "Do I hear Nina?"

"No!" Alfie answered quickly. "I mean, it all must be in your head." He eyed the others so that they would agree with him.

Fabian and Eddie left the kitchen, but Alfie was held back by Jerome.

"Nina's here?" Jerome whispered, nearly laughing his head off.

"Yeah," Alfie looked down. "I accidentally sent the email to her and she came. You have to help me, Jerome! I can't let them see eachother."

"Even though we're all staying in the same house? You are crazy. But ok."

Jerome left and Alfie was right behind him. Alfie heard a clink and he looked back but didn't see anything, so he ignored it. Big mistake.
