Summary: Elsa Winters has been labeled "the Replacement" since she dated Hans Isles get him over her sister. Now she's the girl you pay to date with for a month to get over your girlfriend. And quite frankly, Elsa can't care less. It gets her out of suspicion. But when Jack Frost asks for her services, Elsa riskily finds herself regretting being The Replacement.
The Replacement
Girls were getting better at sticking by their boyfriends. Either that, or the girlfriends were the ones being dumped. It didn't matter which, it annoyed me a bit anyway.
It wasn't that I was beginning to doubt girl power or anything ludicrous like that. No, I was just barely irked by the fact that I wasn't getting paid to be some other guy's pillow. The money was always good. Good enough to allow my parents and I space. But now that girls had taken a turn in their history, I was getting low on money.
So maybe that was why I had agreed to Jack Frost requirements.
It had begun like a normal day would, how a normal student's would. The thought of that nearly killed me by shock, but I liked it nonetheless. Then Jack Frost had to ruin it.
We were in the same history class, and I was finally comfortable (and maybe even bored) now that we had passed the Witch Trials unit. The teacher had stopped saying anything noteworthy, so I had begun to doodle. The pictures were of snowflakes, snowmen, ice palaces...
Someone tapped my shoulder. I had to bite my tongue to refrain from yelping.
"Nice pictures," Jack whispered from over my shoulder.
I turned my head over my shoulder and got to business.
"Twenty dollars per weeks for one month," I said simply.
Jack raised his eyebrows.
"How'd you know?"
I leaned back forward.
"I've been at this for a while. I know that signs," I began picking at my nails with my pencil, "Besides, my cousin won't stop blabbing about your guys' huge break-up."
Jack laughed humorlessly.
"Well, I'll give forty for per week for two months." Jack said.
"Sorry," I replied, "I don't go over a month."
"Eighty dollars for per week for a month and a half," Jack offered.
I turned back to look at Jack, who, now that I looked closer, looked more tired than anyone else in the room.
"Wow, my cousin really did a number on you." I sighed, "Fine, I accept." I noticed that the teacher was beginning to eye us and seemingly did Jack.
"We'll finish this up at lunch," Jack said. Then I (maybe we) decided to listen and see if the white board and/or teacher were saying anything important.
Oh great. He was referring back to the Trials.
Lunch came around soon enough, history did happen to be the second to final class before it. I sat at my usual table in the far left corner where Anna, my sister, or Rapunzel, my infamous cousin, occasionally joined me.
Luck was in Jack's favor, because none of the above had decided to come and keep me company today. I strained my ears to single out conversations.
Shoes? Nope.
Football? Nope.
Malls? Nope.
Girls? Hmm... None about were about me, so... Nope.
Good. So no one was talking about my agreement to be Jack's Replacement for over a month. Now, I my rules could be set.
Jack, half an hour after lunch had begun, finally joined me.
"You're late," I said dryly.
Jack chuckled.
"I didn't realize that there was a particular time," he replied. "Besides," he added, "you can't blame me for detention."
I sighed through my nose and refrained from telling Jack that I could blame him for getting detention.
"I pay for only half the bill, so I'll let you choose were you want to go." I spoke with simplicity.
"Belle's Garden," Jack replied before adding, "Oh, and you better not be such an ice queen."
Ice queen.
The words hit harder than anyone could imagine.
"I will act any way I'd like!" I snapped.
Jack held up his hands in mock defense and the cafeteria quieted down a notch.
"But I will be kinder," I said, regaining my composure.
Jack nodded and the cafeteria's volume went up again. When I was positive I wasn't spotlight anymore, I began again.
"I have some minor rules," I looked to see if Jack was following, which was confirmed with a nod. "Here we go:
Rule 1: Hugging is as far as we go in physical terms. That's it. No exceptions.
Rule 2: No bringing my family into this. I can go see your family, but you, in no way, can see mine.
Rule 3: I get paid weekly. That means, every Sunday.
Rule 4: Don't tell anyone about the extra two weeks. I made an exception to you because your pay was good and I know what kind of damage my cousin does.
Deal?"
Jack sighed at my many rules, but agreed.
"Alright," Jack said, "Friday at Belle's Garden then?"
I'd been to Belle's Garden on occasions like this, and it was a pretty good place to go.
I nodded.
"See you then."
A/N: I apologize for the shortness; I'm just trying this out. Also, for those who like My Name Is Elsa (I'm going to refer to it as MNIE from now on), I'm working on the next chapter.
I hope you like this so far!
