A Peculiar Fanfiction

~Chapter 6~

Note: Btw, Miss Peregrine isn't going to be as strict as she usually is cause I don't have experience in writing people that has a strict personality with a big heart.

~Miss Peregrines POV~

After I told the children to carry on with what they were doing before, me and Derek walked around the garden before going in the house where I was obviously going to show him around.

"You accomplished your job at being an ymbryne...impressive" he stated "Yeah...I eventually got my life together after you l-" I was about to say something but he stopped the both of us from walking and turned to me, cupping my cheek in his hands. "Alma, it wasn't my choice, please, if it was I don't think I would have ever left you. It was hard, I could eat or focus on anything, I was to worried about you. I needed you, without you my world felt completely empty" the words he said literally left me speechless so I decided to smile and keep walking.

After what seems like forever but only was like 12 minutes and 32 seconds according to my watch, we finally managed to get to the door that would lead us into the house.

"Come on, we can start on the second floor first" I saw his head looking everywhere and obviously didn't hear me, after rolling my eyes I decided to grab his hand and pull him up the stairs myself.

"This is Claire and The Twins room" I said before stepping inside. When we got inside toys were scattered everywhere and there was a bunk bed on both sides of the room in case Bronwyn wanted to sleep with them. "Pleasant view" he said sarcastically as he tied to avoid the toys on the floor as much as possible. We decided to move to a different room.

"Bronwyn and Fiona's room" there was a bunk bed in the middle. "How do they manage to choose who sleeps on what..I mean like...when I was a kid personally me and my friends would fight with who sleeps on the top or not" he said as he recalled a memory of his young age. "Well, after a day of a lot of work they don't have the energy to fight about that and when I come to check on them, their on the ground sleeping and I put them on the bed myself, usually Fiona is on the top and Claire on the bottom incase she needs to get up in the middle of the night and is to scared to climb down"

~Narrators POV~

After showing all the rooms around the house, Alma and Derek went back outside and finished looking at the garden and went to see Fiona's different types of hedges that she puts randomly around house. After a few hours it is time for Miss Peregrine to start preparing dinner, Derek decided to help. They eventually finished.

~Miss Peregrines POV~

Derek decided to help me start preparing for dinner since he had nothing else to do, besides he told me that he was staying and I started to get excited so I couldn't stop him.

Finally after some time we managed to actually finish, quicker than I thought it was but it wasn't until I glanced at my watch and the time said it was 6:15 and dinner started at 7:00 so we started cleaning.

I noticed Derek was being a bit odd and his hands were behind his back. "Hey Alma, can you come here for a second" I rolled my eyes and strolled over next to him and I heard a sound from behind his back and before I know it, Derek's hand was covered in whip cream and he smeared it all over my face, not missing a spot.

It took a few minutes for me to proceed what was happening and I could tell that Derek was holding in some kind of laughter. I licked the cream off my lips and whipped the cream off my eyes so I could see what was happening, Derek was going red cause as I said, he was holding in a laughter which really annoyed me so instead of screaming at him, I stuck my hand in a Nutella jar from behind me and hugged Derek, he hugged me back since he thought nothing was up until he felt my hand moving on his back a lot. He pulled away from the embrace and grabbed my hand, straight away he saw the evidence.

Then before I know it, we were both laying on the floor covered in cracked eggs and flour. Me and Derek had a game of 'egg throwing' in the kitchen and some landed on us, I jumped on him from behind and tipped the whole flour package on his head, you could barely recognise who we were, then I heard a soft laughter from outside the door.

~Emma's POV~

After visiting Fiona I was getting a bit bored and I wanted to go see if Miss Peregrine needed any help. When I slowly crept up to the house, through the window I could see Miss Peregrine covered in cream and her hand inside a Nutella jar.

I decided to call for all the children and they noticed so they followed me and we went into the house and stood outside the kitchen door. Millard took his clothes off since he didn't want to be caught. When we got there, we saw them embracing a hug but Derek's back was facing us and we spotted Miss Peregrines hand moving up and down. 15 minutes later they were having like a war of food fight which is very unusual since Miss Peregrine never disrespects food like this. All of us started to laugh and that's when Miss Peregrines hawk-like eyes turned towards the door as she got up.

The moment she turned the corner she found all of us standing outside the kitchen door. "Mhm" Miss Peregrine mumbles and turned around "Millard, just because you're naked doesn't mean I cannot see you" with that I heard the younger ones through out those classic 'ooo' that people usually do when someone gets in trouble, except we were all in trouble, well I thought we were.

~Miss Peregrines POV~

I saw all of my charges standing in front of me and I gathered Millard into the crowd since I knew he was trying to avoid getting in trouble. I was about to shout at them but I saw Derek with a bag of flour that he found in the cabinet and he motioned me to be quiet as he made his way behind the children. I know what he was going to do but I didn't know how to gather the children's attention on me for such a long time so I just continued to stare at them.

'POOF' Derek dropped all the powder onto the children as they began to cough, luckily Millard was putting his clothes on otherwise that would have been a rather censored scene. I couldn't help but laugh at their expression and Derek made his way over to me giving me a high five as did something to the children, they began to laugh with joy as well, even Enoch and Horace didn't mind about his shirt being dirty, I hope. I missed this, ever since Victor died nothing has never really been the same and we continued to stay what we looked like.

After dinner I reset the loop and whatnot. After that I put each and one of them to bed and gave Derek the guest room.
