Chapter Text
"Frobisher boarding school?" Eddie told the taxi driver as he looked at the leaflet of his acception. The taxi driver nodded and started small talk to make the next 20 minutes not awkward. Eddie wasn't up for talking to anyone. He got forced to move to England from his hometown in America all because he never backed out of any dares that his friends put him up to thus causing his transfer for bad behaviour. "Y'know not too long ago I picked up another girl from America. Lovely and bright girl and she was going to Anubis house as well! You will enjoy it here! It just takes a bit of time to get adjusted!" the driver laughed. 'If only it was that easy' Eddie thought as he scoffed under his breath and looked out of the window.
The drive wasn't as bad as he thought but he was glad when the driver pulled up outside some old dingy building. Eddie presumed this was where he was going to spend the next 3 years at. Eddie paid the driver and mumbled a 'thank you.' Pulling his suitcase roughly he walked up the steps and walked into the house. "Hello?" he raised his voice loud enough to hear it echo right back to him. His green eyes looked around and saw how creepy this house looked. As he went to trace his fingers over the weird bannister handle a voice shook him. "Eddison I presume?" the deep voice asked. He felt intimidated by the pitch of this guys voice remained calm as he turned around to match the face to the voice. "I prefer Eddie actually-" he got cut off by the caretaker's voice. "Eddison is what is on the papers so Eddison it is." Eddie rolled his eyes and scoffed. "You will not get away with that sort of attitude here! After all that is why you transferred isn't it? Get your stuff," Victor growled and began walking Eddie to his new room.
"This is your room. The rules of the house has already been acknowledged to you. Dinner is at 6. You are not allowed out of your room past 10. Is that clear Mr Miller?" he stared Eddie down and Eddie didn't feel like arguing so he just nodded. Victor left and the only noise in the room was the ticking of the clock on the wall. Eddie paid no attention to anything besides emptying his suitcase to get it out of the way. It was late 2 in the afternoon so the boarding school students were currently in school. This gave Eddie plenty of time to unpack and maybe even go to sleep for a few hours. He knew he was going to find it incredibly hard to adjust to this new scenery. Eddie unpacked everything he had on him and put it away before laying on the bed and stared at the ceiling. He hoped that it caved in so he didn't have to stay here but he knew there was no going back after this, his mother made up her mind. Closing his eyes he felt a slight feeling of some relaxation filling his body to which he was incredibly thankful for.

"Sibuna meeting tonight?" Nina asked the little pack of friends that consisted of herself, Patricia, Fabian and Amber. Everyone nodded and started walking out of the school and back to Anibis house for the rest of the day. Everyone got in and immediately went to their rooms to get changed out of their uniform. Patricia walked upstairs and opened her door before entering and closing it back over. She placed her bag down with a slight thud and turned. Her eyes widened when she was greeted with a sleeping boy on the bed across from her. "Who are you?!" Patricia yelled awaking the boy from his once peaceful slumber. He squinted his eyes and groaned, "Hello to you too." Amber and Nina came running into the room to see what the commotion was all about. Both girls eyes squinted as they saw the unknown figure stretching on the bed. "Who is that?" Amber asked to nobody in particular. Nina and Patricia looked at her sarcastically before turning to the boy again.
He stood up, his height towering over all 3 girls. "Im Eddie, I just got here like an hour ago. This is the room I was assigned to-" he got cut off by Patricia, "Since when is it allowed to share with a boy? Has Victor like hit his head or something?" Everyone was puzzled. "What is all this commotion about?" Victors voice boomed as he reached the door of the room filled with the teens. Everyone quietened down as they were awaiting the reasoning behind why the boy was there. "Mr Miller has transferred. He will be sharing with you, Patricia. Im not having all the fuss of clearing out a cupboard when you have a spare bed in here with you. There will be NO funny business when you are sharing this room and If there is you both will be in more trouble than you could possibly imagine. And for the love of God stop shouting!" Victor grumbled and walked away without another word.
The room fell silent before Nina smiled and introduced herself. "Hi! Im Nina! It's nice to meet you!" Eddie snapped his gaze away from the girl with the attitude and offered Nina a smile whilst shaking her hand. "Im Amber!" the other girl smiled and instead of shaking his hand ended up giving him a big hug. Eddie was taken back but laughed slightly at her confidence and good energy. Patricia scoffed and left the room before Nina and Amber asked Eddie if he wanted to go and meet the rest of the house. "I- I... sure.." he shrugged and shut the room door behind him as he followed the girls. Eddie soon got introduced to Fabian, Jerome, Alfie, Joy and Mara. Patricia was nowhere to be seen. He liked her attitude but she could be intimidating, just what he liked. Dinner rolled around and everyone was sat in the seats. Trudy gushed over the new face at the table before pouring everyone's dinner out.
Everyone was trying to get Eddie's attention, especially Joy. "So, Eddie. Tell us about yourself!" Joy smiled and everyone went quiet to hear his answer. Eddie froze as he hated attention but powered through. "Well... I was raised in America and my Dad lives here. I got kicked out of my last school for fighting and shi- stuff. So my mum decided to send me to a boarding school and here we are," he mumbled taking a drink of his water. Patricia looked at the new boy in disgust, all the girls were gushing over him cause they all thought he was hot. The boys were gushing as they wanted to know some tips on how to get all the girls attention. Dinner flew by and the pupils were scattered here and there throughout the house. Eddie didn't like Victor, he gave off a bad vibe. He walked past his office and met his eyes, a flash of panic washed through him before heading into Fabians room. His head buried into a physics book. Eddie knocked lightly with his knuckles, Fabian's head snapping up and inviting Eddie in.
"Hey man, I know we don't know each other but I just wanted to say hey." Eddie said at the door and went to leave but Fabian Invited him back in. Eddie sat on the other bed and looked around his room. "Finding it hard fitting in?" Fabian asked brining Eddie back to reality. He found himself nodding without thinking. "Trust me, You will get adjusted in no time." Eddie nodded, trying to believe it. "Why has that girl Patricia got such a bad attitude, what a warm welcome." Eddie scoffed and Fabian laughed. "When Nina came she was...difficult. That's just how she is but she will come around, she just needs to get used to you. Give her a run for her money, she will come around." Fabian's advice seemed alright for Eddie just arriving that day. Fabian seemed quiet and trustworthy. For the next hour Eddie sat with Fabian until Nina and Amber barged into the room. Everyone looked between everyone. "Fabes we need to do that thing," Amber said in a specific tone. Eddie clicked on that they didn't want him knowing so he got up and left without another word. He thought it was weird behaviour but he thought he was just being silly.
Patricia got up to go meet in Fabian's room to go up into the attic. She opened the door and barged into a muscular figure. Her eyes met with the new boys and pushed him away from her. "Get out of my way, Weasel." before walking past and up the stairs. Eddie shook his head with a small laugh before he went in to the room and sat on the bed. He decided to listen to some music when a loud grinding sound echoed throughout the house. He took off his earphone and wondered what it was. He got up and opened the door and listened out in the hall but he had no idea what the source was coming from. He shrugged and went back in. Eddie wanted to call his mum but strongly decided against it and just lay down.

"How loud was the door opening? Do you think Victor heard?" Nina asked everyone. They had just figured out the puzzles and a door had opened in the attic. "The whole of England must have heard that!" Patricia exclaimed grumpily. There is no way that the whole house didn't hear it. "I think we should call it a night...incase Victor comes up here and we get busted." Fabian suggested and everyone agreed. The sneaked out of the attic and tiptoed to their individual rooms with shared partners. Patricia walked into the room and nearly had a heart attack when she saw the unfamiliar body laying on the bed in the dark. "Why are you sitting in the dark you weirdo?" she asked him with a scoff when she sat. "Oh hello little miss attitude," he mocked as he took out his earphones. Patricia's eyes widened as he decided to get cheeky with her back. "Listen here, Americano. The only reason your here is because you cant behave and I will not stop myself from kicking you in the face when your asleep." she narrowed her eyes at him even though he couldn't see. He had a strong feeling she was growling at him but he just found it funny.
"Im so scared, Yknow what im gonna call you? Yacker." he laughed at the nickname he had thought of just for her. Damn all this girl done was talk and ramble. It was quiet for a minute before she spat out a nickname for him, "Weasel." He smiled and accepted her nickname in return. It was silent for a few moments before Eddie spoke. "Where did you run off to all night? do you have a secret club with all your little british friends?sipping tea whilst reading the bible?" he chuckled. "Excuse me? Listen here you little cockroach, just because your in this room and I can't get rid of you doesn't mean i need to talk to you. Stay in your lane, Idiot."
"This is gonna be so fun sharing a room. Right, yacker?" he smiled and was met with a pillow to the face from her side of the room.
