The next morning, we all got ready. Nina's gran was leaving today. "How's the head today gran?" Nina asked, concerned. "Hmm. Yeah. A little better. Must be the excitement. London, here I come!" her gran replied, hugging her. I smiled at the two. Jasper is the only one who treats me like that.
"Finally!" Fabian said. His face was really red, probably from being upside down like that. We looked at him. "Finally got the shirt." Fabian said. "Oh, thanks Fabian. Now, keep up the poetry and say it loud and clear." she said. She then gives him a hug as he chuckles awkwardly. I smiled.
She then came over and hugged me. "I don't know who the father is, but I know you'll be a great mother." she said. I gave her a look of pure shock. "H-How did you...?" I trailed off, not even bothering to deny it. "A mother always has this sort of glow about her when she's expecting. Let me know if you have any questions about motherhood?" She said. I smiled and nodded, hugging her once more. "Thank you Mrs. Martin." I said. "Of course darling." she replied. She released me and we went downstairs.
Thank Anubis Amber wasn't in there when Nina's gran mentioned it. If Amber knew, who knows what would happen? We went down to breakfast, where Mara was wearing the weirdest pair of glasses. Mick walks in.
"I hate mornings." Mick said grudgingly, going to sit down. "Well, I love mornings. All that peace and quiet for uninterrupted study. We're so different." Mara said. "But so right." Mick said back. Now I see what Mara's doing. She's trying to get Mick to go to Australia with his family to attend that school. "Are those new glasses? They're kind of-" Mick said before Jerome cut him off. "Disfiguring." Jerome said. I sighed. I know he's not going to go for a girl like me. "But I think they're cute. On you." Mick said. Awe! Despite the fact that she's trying to push him away, he's pulling her closer. It's absolutely adorable.
"Princess Amber, your carriage awaits." Alfie said, coming in the door. "No way. Is it a convertible?" Amber asked. Oh lord. "I'm going to say yes." Alfie said, clearly lying. Amber squeals, getting up.
Alfie takes her outside while the rest of us follow. I wonder how Alfie fixed up my old quad. Oh. My. God. It's a good thing I sold it to him. It looks ridiculous. "Tada!" Alfie said, presenting it to Amber. Amber's face falls. "There's no way I'm getting on that raunchy tractor." Amber said. "Dude! This is sick!" Jerome said, going towards him. "Can I have a ride Alfie?" Patricia asked. "No way. Me first." Joy said. That self-righteous bitch. "As the potential gf, I get automatic shotgun." Amber said, walking over to it. She goes over and hops on it, crossing her legs.
As they drive it through the school, guys just high-fived him or clapped him on the back and, as I figured he wouldn't, he didn't give me any credit for it. He drove it outside the classroom and jumped off of it. He leaned against the door frame. "Did I pass the test?" he asked, a gleam of victory in his eyes. "You get an A for ambition, Alfie, but you know, when I said wheels..." Amber started. "You never specified a car Amber. You didn't." Alfie countered. "Okay. You passed the test." Amber said, grabbing her notebook and caving.
"So does this mean we're officially Amfie now? Can I tell the world?" Alfie asked, stepping forwards. "No. We have to go on a trial date before we're official. My people will be in touch." Amber said, getting her stuff as she got off, nodding before she entered the class. Alfie pushed the four-wheeler outside. I entered the class soon after Amber.
"We have loads in common now. Last night, I did my history research and he didn't glance over once." Joy said to Patricia excitedly as Nina and Fabian walked in. Nina caught me up on their conversation. "I don't remember giving anyone any advice." Patricia said. "Trust me Patricia, girls take things that people say as advice, even when it's not direct." I told Patricia as Mrs. Andrews walked in. "Morning everyone." she said, walking over to her desk. Mrs. Andrews mentions some CD to Joy for the bid video. She then asked Fabian to listen to it with her tonight. He stupidly agrees.
Later, Fabian and I were walking down the halls. I was telling him about Joy's plan to separate them when we see uncle Jasper. "J-Jasper!" Fabian said. "Fabian! Violet!" he said in excitement, turning towards us. "What are you doing here?" I asked. "I am going to be the curator of the exhibition if the school wins the bid." he explained. "Great! Oh. Um, did you manage to find any more information on the Mask of Anubis?" Fabian asked. "I'm on to it. I'm meeting an expert I know from an online forum. Calls himself the Collector." Uncle Jasper replied.
I stop to turn around to see how this will turn out with Mara and Mick. It's rather amusing because she now thinks he's more into her. He kinda is, actually. Uncle Jasper came back for me and put his arm around me as we continued walking.
