The new kid [anyone]

"Bite me, Addy." Patrick grumbled

"Just try me, Luke." Emm bit back glaring at Patrick.

Ellie stepped in between them, holding up her hands as if to stop them from going at each other. "Guys, chill," she said, looking from sister to brother. "Emm, I can handle wacko and I'm good at monitoring drunk friends," she told Emma. "And Patrick, no making the teacher's lives a misery. At least not much. And if you plan on getting drunk, not at school and please do it in a normal way," she added, looking at him.

Patrick made a face and held his hands up surrendering. "Ok, ok. I promise to be good boy."

He glanced at Emm who rolled her eyes in disbelief. "Alright sis, feel free to kick me in the morning. I'll be good."

"I'm so glad I met you, Ellie." Emm said feeling happy that in the end she did listen to her brother and they ended up here rather than somewhere else.

"Ok. You said that." she pointed finger at Patrick.

"Sorry, sometimes he gets too excited. Slight case of ADD probably. Don't worry, I'll try to keep him away from anything alcoholic." Emm said to Ellie.

Patrick promised to stop his bad habits and she will keep an eye on him.

Ellie smiled at him. "Good. Besides, good guys are so much better and hotter than the bad guys," she added with a smirk.

Ellie grinned at Emm. "Aww, I'm glad. I'm really glad I met you too." She looked back at Patrick for a moment then at Emma. "It's ok, I'll help you handle him," she said with a grin.

"I have the feeling you two are twins." he shook his head. "But I'm glad you're here with us." he flashed really charming smile at Ellie.

"I promise to behave. But in case I get too far glad to know I have another pair of eyes to whack me back to reality." he smiled hugging both girls.

"And what's wrong with being twins? Twins are cool," she told him with a smile. When he gave her that charming smile, saying that, the smile turned into a grin and she gave a slight chuckle. He was definitely a charmer. "Thanks. I'm glad I'm with you guys too."

She smirked. "Yes, yes you do. So you'd better behave," she said softly with a smile.

Emma giggled at her brother's antics. He was being charming self again. That was much better. Previous one was drunken nutjob tearing up high's gym and his own room.

"Yeah, twins actually sounds good." she said smiling brightly. "Why not twins. Then I'll get one more."

"We'll be like Chicago's version of the Weasley twins," Ellie said with a grin. "Well, Chicago's international version of the Weasley twins," she corrected herself.

"Yeah and throwing stink bombs at annoying teachers and wrecking havoc at lab." Patrick smiled. "And being the good one." he added so Emma wouldn't chop his fingers later.

Ellie laughed. "Ok, we won't fully do that. At least I won't; not sure about Emm over here," she teased her friend. "But do you know how awesome it would be to set off a firework dragon in the middle of exams? Would be epic!" she said happily, remembering that scene from the HP movie.

Patrick laughed "Ok ok. Won't do that. And my sister's not that nasty. But I love that dragon idea. It's really epic. Love epic stuff." he said excitedly.

Ellie nodded, grinning, her eyes shining brightly. "I know, right? We so should do one of those Chinese dragon dances at some point," she said with a giggle. "How fun would that be?"

"Oh yes." he clapped his hands excited "I can imagine how fun. Epic and fun. I can imagine everyones shocked faces."

Ellie giggled. "That'll be the best part of it! Seeing everyone all shocked and being like 'uh what in the world are you doing?'. And we'd be like, 'we're being epic, that's what!'," she babbled on excitedly.

"Oh I can't wait that day." Patrick smirked ignoring Emm's eyeroll

Ellie giggled. "So do you guys still want a tour? Do you have any classes next or...?" she trailed off, looking from brother to sister.

"Oh sure. Dunno 'bout him but I need a tour if I ever want to go somewhere alone." Emm giggled.

Ellie grinned. "Then mi'lady, I will be your official guide for today," she told her new friend in a posh tone. "Let's go. And that charmer can join us if he wishes," she said to Patrick with a smile.

"Ha ha. Very funny. Of course I'm coming. I don't have whole place stored in my memory." Patrick said teasingly.

Playfully she stuck her tongue out at him, just a tiny bit. "I expected you to be an insane genius and to already have this place memorised," she joked teasingly.

"Ah! My gps got connection problems this morn." he said in mock hurt tone

"Aha. Connection problems? So that's the new title for hangover, huh?" Emm smacked Patrick's head.

"Oh come on. I had to visit that club last night. We just arrived. Why not to celebrate successful arrival." he teased rubbing his head where Emm's hand touched.

"And we can have party today too." Pat tried to suggest his newest flash-idea
