Loading ...Their mother smiled at Cassandra, “My boys really seem to like you, Cassandra.”
She giggled, “I like them too; the twins are cute!”
Juliet came up on her right and whispered, “But what do you think of Arty?”
She raised an eyebrow at her and thought, Yep, I should definitely ask her to give me the tour. But she said with a false red tinge and in a hushed whisper so only Juliet could hear her, “I-I sorta like him…”
So then Juliet grinned from ear to ear, “We need to schedule some girl time! So we can talk all about it!”
Cassandra’s grin, however, wasn’t as cheerful as Juliet’s, “S-Sure? But actually, I need a favor.”
The blonde girl’s smile faltered a bit, “What is it?”
Cassie looked down at the drowsy Beckett and started to stroke his cheek so he could sleep, “If any of you don’t mind…” Her ocean blue eyes watched the expressions of each of the people in the room–especially Artemis and Butler’s, “If I could have a tour of your manor?”
All of them exchanged confused glances, but Mr. Fowl spoke, ”Well, Cassandra, why would you need a tour of the manor?”
Cassie opened her mouth, but Artemis beat her to the punch, “I’m going to be tutoring her for the time being. Is that all right with you?”
His parents exchanged glances again–happy ones– and Mrs. Fowl beamed at her son and his “student”, “Oh! That would be wonderful! And of course you may have a tour of the manor, Cassie.”
She flinched at the nickname, “Thank you, Mrs. Fowl, but could you please do me a huge favor?”
“Of course, dear, what is it?”
Cassie looked “embarrassed”, “Well….”"Don’t be shy.”
“Well, could you not call me ‘Cassie’? Please?”
“Well, if you don’t mind me asking, why not?”
Her eyes casted to the terra cotta flooring, “It… brings up… memories.”
Angeline’s eyes widened for a moment, “Oh, I-I’m sorry.”
Cassandra sighed and smiled at the mother of three, “It’s all right.” She kept her eyes on his mother, but directed the statement towards Artemis II, “Not many people know that much about me.”
It was silent for a few moments, but Juliet piped up, “Hey! Why don’t I give you that tour now? Before Arty has to teach you!”
Artemis glared at Juliet who smiled and Cassie laughed, “Okay, but first….” She got up, stepped over Myles, and gave Beckett back to his mommy. “All right! I’m ready now!”
Juliet beamed again and grabbed her by the upper arm, “Then let’s go!”
Before she was dragged out of the room, Cassandra called out to Artemis, “Can you bring my laptop to where we’re going to study?!”
He nodded and mouthed, ‘The library.’
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Artemis went upstairs to the library with Butler close behind him carrying Cassandra’s backpack (You didn’t actually think he’d carry it? Did you?). During that seven minute walk from the living room to their destinated room, he did some thinking.
Hmm… Cassandra Hemlock. She’ll be an interesting student. I wonder why she doesn’t like to be called Cassie? I think Cassandra fits her better. It’s more old-fashioned, elegant, and beautif–I did not just think that! Blast this puberty! Ugh! It keeps sneaking around in my thoughts waiting for the perfect opportunity to slip into a conversation or a plan! This needs to stop.
“Artemis?”
The boy genius stopped thinking and walking, “Yes?”
“You passed the library.”
“Oh?”
Butler nodded and pointed to something, “Yes, see? There’s Juliet and Cassandra.”
And sure enough, they were there.
Artemis went back into his thinking spot, And not to mention the fact that puberty is affecting my sense of coordination.

March 2nd, 2008 at 4:42 am
I love it!!! This is probaly one of the best stories I have ever seen!!! Great spelling and Grammer, better then the usual story. Perfect plot, who the heck is “Master Kane”? ~Gasp~ Could it be Opal?!! OH!!! That would be so strange. Remember to put a twist, or otherwise it might become a bit boring…
March 3rd, 2008 at 1:02 am
Please update, I can’t wait to read it. If you need any ideas, just ask. I got’s a brain full of them for THIS amazing story.
March 3rd, 2008 at 1:34 pm
Yes! Symojen! Please! I need ideas bad!!!! And for the others as well if you can! Just not Old Friends, New Friends.
March 3rd, 2008 at 10:40 pm
YAY!AN UPDATE!
March 4th, 2008 at 6:14 am
Cool! Cassandra kinda reminds me of some characters that me and AYSN have done, really like it please continue!
March 4th, 2008 at 8:13 pm
WOOOHOOO an upd8!!! this is like my fave story ever (apart from Artemis Fowl of course). any ideas…er well how about cassie falls for artemis and then master kane who really likes cassie tries to ki..attack artemis or hold him hostage or something but noone can rescue artemis even the fairies as master kane knows about them and has some sort of shield against them but at the last minute cassie rescues him somehow by like (oh i don’t know) sacrificing herself or, here’s an extreme idea, bluerinsing master kane and they have a big white wedding and they all live happily ever after all live happily ever after. er…you might want to cut out the end.
I think I should stop typing now…
good luck with the rest of the story!!!!!
March 4th, 2008 at 8:15 pm
