Modern High school AU! My first fan fiction...Enjoy!
Elsa Arendelle stepped out of her baby blue car. It technically wasn't hers, but her parents Walt and Emma Arendelle were so rich, they usually were driven around in a sleek black limousine. They had no need for this 'simple eight-seater van'.
"Are we there yet? Or is this just another break?" Anna whined, as she popped a chocolate in her mouth.
"We're here." Elsa said and winked. "Stop eating chocolates, you'll get all hyper."
"Says you, who eats two boxes a day!" Anna stuck her tongue out. She jumped out of the car and the chocolates were forgotten.
"Why don't we head inside?" Elsa asked. "We want an early start and all."
"Oh my gosh Elsa! We are finally here! For the first time in forever I can get out of this car!" Anna quickly grabbed her luggage and bounced like a child who was given caffeine.
"Seems like someone's on a sugar rush." Elsa remarked as she calmly took her suitcases out of the trunk, a true contrast to her energetic sister.
"I wonder who will be in our dorm?! What if we aren't even sharing a dorm?" Anna asked. She looked worried, but she shouldn't worry. Anna was amazing at making friends, and she was very genuine, albeit slightly awkward.
"Don't panic." Elsa said. Elsa honestly was more worried than Anna could ever be, but she covered her emotions with a mask of ice. Elsa was viewed as someone who wasn't genuine because of her excellent composure. She would often ask everyone to leave her alone when she needed to focus, including Anna. "I'm sure something like 'different dorm rooms' can't separate me from my sister!"
After Elsa parked the car, she and Anna walked into the boarding school/high school.
"I'll miss Kai and Gerda..."Anna started to ramble on about their home, which Elsa wasn't too sad to leave. It seemed too big for Elsa's tastes. Too perfect. The marble Corinthian columns by the doors made it feel too much like a palace, and the lights were too dim and romantic for reading. It was still lonely: empty halls and rooms still remained even when there was a dinner party.
"..And I think Olaf is picking up your car tonight."Anna finished. "I don't think us Arendelles want to be seen in a dirty car."
"Wait, what?"Elsa asked.
"Olaf is picking up your car?"Anna seemed unaware that she was going to face the wrath of the Snow Queen. When Elsa was mad though, it was truly more scary. She seemed icy cold and deadly, but still quiet. No yelling or screaming. She had a freezing intensity that could freeze an entire kingdom. Burning would pale in comparison to Elsa's freeze effect.
"Mama and Papa said they would leave the car for us. And OLAF is coming to drive it back?!"
Olaf was a squat, short man who worked for Elsa's parents. Elsa would say was related to the Pillsbury Doughboy. Not that he was unpleasant, but he tended to get distracted easily and often crashed Elsa's car.
"...I guess they've changed their minds..?"
"They promised. That's unfair." Elsa's voice seemed like the biting cold of winter. "Olaf is probably going to crash it again and wreck it."
"Oh come on, Elsa. You aren't going to be mad over a car, are you?" Anna asked timidly. "Olaf means well...he's just easily distracted and has unrealistic goals."
"No." Elsa relaxed. "That was quite silly of me."
Anna brightened up again. "Good, because I really want to get to our dorm."
The two sisters walked towards the desk in awkward silence. It was silence that Elsa was used to, forced to stay up late to study in her own room, which seemed more like a locked prison cell at times. Her parents had good motives though for her...while Anna was allowed to do almost anything she wanted. Go shopping, have unplanned sleepovers, get dirty in the mud...while Elsa would be yelled at if she tried to do any of those things.
Elsa half-listened to Anna's rambling as they stood in line for the registration desk.
"Hello girls."The receptionist at the desk said. "May I have your name and age please?"
"I am Elsa Arendelle, and I am age 16."Elsa said gracefully.
She nodded and smiled at Elsa. "Snowflake Dormitory, dear. Down this hall, turn right, go left up the three flights of stairs. You are in Room 345." She handed Elsa a silver key that had a tag attached to it that said 'Room 345'.
Elsa waited for Anna to finish. Anna looked sad, because she wasn't with Elsa. She was with a girl called Merida, while Elsa was with Rapunzel, her cousin, and a girl called Astrid was also there.
"It's alright, at least you are in the next room!" Elsa cheered Anna up. Anna was very social, but desperately wanted to be with Elsa. Elsa stayed calm and reassuring, while she actually felt uncomfortable.
They walked out of the fancy foyer to the Snowflake Dormitory, which was spacious and clean.
'Hi guys!"A girl with long blonde hair smiled widely."Oh my gosh, is it really you Elsa?"
"Punzie!" Elsa hugged her cousin. "It's nice to see you!"
"I never see you guys! Anna!" Rapunzel pulled both of them into a crushing bear hug. "Did you know we are roommates, Elsa? I wish Anna could join us! Merida is really nice though, so she doesn't have to worry!"
Rapunzel prattled on about dormitories and classes, and how she is best friends with Merida, Hijack, and John, or something of the sort. Elsa stopped listening halfway through. She was tired of driving and wanted to settle in and relax.
"And we are here!" Rapunzel took her key and opened the door.
"Bye, Anna!" She said cheerily.
As she moved her luggage inside, Elsa hugged Anna and said, "I'll see you soon! Bye, Anna!"
"Bye!" Anna smiled. "I can't wait to meet everyone! See you soon!"
Elsa grabbed her luggage and went into the room, which had three beds, three desks, and a washroom. Rapunzel was almost unpacked by the time she said finally bye to Anna and promised to make friends. In the bed in the corner, a blonde girl with her bangs falling into her face was typing in her laptop.
"Hello!" Rapunzel said. "What's your name? I'm Rapunzel, but you can call me Punzie! This is Elsa, my cousin!"
"I'm Astrid."The girl said, sounding a bit bored. "Can you open the window? It's a bit warm in here."
Elsa opened the window and a gust of cold air blew into the warm room. Rapunzel shivered on contact with the wind.
"The cold never bothered me anyways." Elsa smiled as she stuck her head out the window and her bun got slightly messed up and her cheeks became slightly rosier.
"Hey guys, do you want to go to CGI Cafe with me to meet some of our classmates?" Rapunzel asked as she moved a green chameleon into a cage. "It is our day out after all."
"I think I'll pass." Astrid said. "Nice lizard, by the way. I have one called Stormfly on my desk, but she's fierce, so be careful she doesn't eat your little guy."
"He's a chameleon." Rapunzel corrected. "His name is Pascal. Oh, come on, Astrid! Don't you want to meet some of our classmates?"
Astrid mumbled, "Not really.", but she ended up saying, "Fine. As long as Snotlout doesn't bug me. I have better things to do."
"That's the spirit! Elsa, will you come?" Rapunzel's big, green puppy dog eyes stare into her soul.
"Uh..sure?"
Elsa had remembered how her parents told her that she had to get out more. Ironic really, who was it again who was forcing her to stay cooped up in a room, studying?
"I guess it wouldn't hurt."
"I'm glad you are coming too! Now we should get ready, we have to be there in ten minutes."
"Wait, what?" Astrid and Elsa asked in unison.
"You can finish unpacking later. Let's go!" Rapunzel pulled her two hesitant dorm-mates out of the room with her and dragged them out the school building.
