The Apology-
It was a Saturday morning in Anubis house. Almost everyone was at the table, Nina and Fabian were discussing their latest discovery. Mara was at the end of the table reading a book, Jerome and Alffie were messing around with their food, Amber and Mick were trying to talk to each other, and the other end of the table was Alexa, quietly eating her breakfast and in deep thought of how she was going to top Jerome and Alffie's last prank on her.
At last Patricia came down the stairs in her pajamas and joined the other at the table. Patricia took a look at Nina and Fabian, and frowned. "What are you two always whispering about?" she asked Nina and Fabian.
Fabian looked at Patricia and said. "None of your business." and he turned back to Nina.
"I can't believe I'm saying this, but I agree with Patricia. Is it because maybe, you two are secretly dating?" Jerome asked, followed by a shocked gasp from Alffie and a excited shriek from Amber.
Nina and Fabian blushed, Nina looked nervous when she said. "Me and Fabian- No." she laughed nervously, and Fabian joined her.
"Whatever." Alffie said, he looked at Jerome, and it looked like the same thought passed trough their minds.
"We'll find out." Jerome said, while he moved to the empty seat next to Alexa and put his arms around her. "And you can help." he said, there was a certain flirtatious tune in his voice, that made Alexa want to slap him.
"Pass." Alexa said, she got up from her seat and walked to her bedroom.
Alexa was reading a book in her room, when she heard Jerome's and Alffie's voice and laughter in Amber's and Nina's room. Alexa went to the hall to see what was going on, but she wasn't alone, Nina was also sneaking up on the half closed door of her room.
Alexa saw Alffie and Jerome reading something that looked like a diary, Nina's diary. Alffie laughed and said to Jerome. "Listen to this, 'Fabian is so nice to me, people at Anubis house think that we're dating, too bad it's not true.'" Alffie read in a girlish voice. Jerome and Alffie erupted in laughter.
Nina looked sad, embarrassed and angry, she walked up to her room and grabbed her journal from Alffie's hand. "I can't believe you two!" she yelled and anger and ran out of the house. Fabian who had just walked in, followed Nina.
Jerome and Alffie shrugged, and walked down stairs to the living room, not noticing Alexa. Alexa couldn't decide on running both Jerome and Alffie with a truck or strangling them with her bare hands. But she decide on a plan that was more humane, legal and that would make Jerome suffer and Nina feel better, she was going to make one of the boys apologize.
Alexa climbed down the stairs to the living room, where Jerome and Alffie were now wrestling. Jerome would be the easy target.
Alexa didn't know how, but she got Alffie out of her way, and now she was looking down at the boy she had just tackled at the living room floor. "If you wanted to kiss me, you could have just asked." Jerome teased her. Alexa stared at him in disgusts.
"Urg… I just want to make you apologize for what you did to poor Nina." Alexa said, she was loosening the hold she had on Jerome, which he took advantage of.
Jerome flipped them over, now he was on top, he stared at her with a mixture of need and wonder on his eyes. "And how do you plan on doing that?" he asked nodding at their current position, Alexa did not like the way his was smirking down at her, but she was counting on him doing that.
"By doing whatever means necessary." she whispered in his ear, bringing her face close to his. He was taking the bate, he was leaning toward her. When their lips were millimeters apart, she pushed him off of her. Alexa stood up, and walked toward the main door. Just as she had calculated, Jerome walked up behind her, blocking he way out the door.
"What would I get if I apologize?" Jerome asked, but it wasn't his usual tune of voice, it was a serious tune.
"Let's just say…" she leaned close to his ear and whispered with a flirtatious tune. "You'll be rewarded."
Jerome was carefully weighing his choice, then he got out of Alexa's way and said. "Fine, by right after I apologize, I want my reward."
Alexa nodded understanding, she opened the door and pulled Jerome out to were Nina and Fabian were sitting on the grass talking. "Nina, Jerome has something to say to you." Alexa said, pushing Jerome in front on her.
"I'm sorry that I read your diary, happy now?" he turned to Alexa, Alexa shook her head.
"Like you mean it." she said, looked into his eyes.
"You're treating me like I'm a six year-old." Jerome whined, Alexa shot him a look, and he said. "I am truly sorry that I read your diary Nina, I won't do it again."
Alexa and Nina smiled. Nina stood up and said to Jerome. "Apology excepted." then Nina whispered into Alexa's ear. "Later you have to tell me how you did that." then Nina and Fabian walked back to the house, leaving Alexa and Jerome alone.
Jerome came behind Alexa and said. "Now for my reward." Jerome wrapped his arms around Alexa, expecting a kiss.
But Alexa had another thing in mind, she hugged Jerome and kissed his cheek. "Thank you." she said, then she broke away from his hold and walked toward the house.
"That's all I get?" he asked her.
Alexa turned around and walked back to him. "You got a thank you, a kiss on your cheek and a hug, I think you had enough for one day." she said.
"So, I won't get anything else?" he asked with a sorry look in his face.
Alexa put a hand on his cheek. "We'll see." she said, then she playfully slapped his cheek and she walked back to the house, where she would have to explain how she got Jerome to apologize. Jerome was left to thinking, and plotting a way to make Alexa kiss him.
