(Might contain spoilers of the 2013 Disney/Pixar animation Frozen and possible references to other films or TV shows so yeah I don't own it Disney and Pixar do)
Chapter One- The quiet yet impossible girl
She was the girl in the corner of the room, on the same Maths class as you. She's been sat next to you for at least 3 months by now and you have hardly heard her utter more than a sentence.
You are in year 11 (or Tenth Grade to a couple of American kids in your classes) you spent till year 10 at Corona Academy. There you had to leave your friends Eugene, Max and Rapunzel whom you had been friends with since the beginning of secondary school and talk to as much as possible since you was transferred to Arendelle Mathematics School. In your classes you showed great prospect especially in you lessons like Maths, Art and Design and Technology, it came to a point where due to the extensive knowledge and radical application of your skills in these subjects that some of your teachers were comparing you to the talented mind of your inspiration Leonardo Da Vinci. But even with your genius you couldn't understand the girl next to you.
She was an enigma, a tall, elegant, well dressed blonde enigma that you can't crack.
Many girls like her would be able to make friends easily and by now be deemed in the social classes that teenage society has as a popular person.
But not this one girl
You could tell there was something more to Elsa Arensen but just what was it.
Going by the conversations and whisperings around you have heard kids whisper behind her back all sorts of things, some say she's got Mysophobia (or simply a Germaphobe), some say she's a snob because of the gloves she wears on her hands.
Girls have called her a nerd because she doesn't party, gossip or sit with the other girls at lunch.
Some deem her as an antisocial freak. But Elsa was known mostly as The Ice Queen simply because how she rejected boys asking her out and girls being social to her, Over the time you've seen her in class you watched her fade into a form of isolation. One like you felt since you joined Arendelle Maths School.
You don't have a clue why but something inside inside you empathises with her, like you could just try to reach out to her, to be her friend, to give her someone to talk to, someone who she can trust in the river of social piranhas that try to nip at her as she tries to make her way through the stream of school life and out into the vast ocean of opportunity.
That is when a ruler slams down onto your desk with a horrible twang. You look over to you right hand side to see the form of Mr. Weselton or as some people called him 'The Duke or The Baron' (nicknames he had earned because of his liking for John Wayne films and for his leather coat he wore which he claimed belonged to the famous world war 1 German fighter ace The Red Baron)
He looks at you and in his thick German accent he addresses you by your full name, you look at him "I'm sorry but was my maths lesson interrupting your little daydream about Miss Arensen?" You look round to see a whole class sniggering and smirking in yours and Elsa's direction as you reply "no sir" Weselton looks at you judging you "well in that case look towards the board and pay attention" with that the short angry German walks off back to his laptop. As you slam your head against the desk in embarrassment.
Elsa didn't even glance in your direction during the incident but you could tell she was used to picking up attention and stares.
It was at the point your head hit the desk you hear a little giggle, pure and sweet like birdsong in the morning, you look round to see a redhead with twin braids and two glowing cheeks dotted in freckles smiling like a cheshire cat in your direction.
You look to see the face of Anna Arensen, a girl who was in all your classes and Elsa's extremely lively and more social Twin sister. She give you a small wave which leads you to point at yourself and then she nods unaware that Mr Weselton had come over and was standing in front of your desk "Once again you seem to be getting distracted by an Andersen girl" as to which you reply "but sir" Anna interrupts "Sir I was asking him if (says your name) had a spare blue pen I could borrow as mine ran out" you intervene "that was it sir" you dash to your satchel and produce a blue pen which you hand to Anna, Weselton looks at you and wanders off.
Half an hour later the lunch bell rings, as everyone else is packing Elsa is gone in a shot, you feel a tap on your shoulder, you turn and see Anna.
"Hi" she says
You smile "hello"
She holds out her hand "Anna Arensen, weird name I know, but I didn't choose it my parents did and I can't do much about it and so" realised she was close to babbling though you could see she was lively like she was on a sugar rush "anyway I was wondering if you wanted to join me for lunch?" You reply sure but by then she is almost dragging you to the cafeteria.
Once in the cafeteria, you and Anna get some lunch and then she introduces you to everyone at the table mostly Kristoff you you've seen working at a the local DIY store. You are then introduced to his 11 year old brother Sven. They are both munching carrots whilst Kristoff is on his phone and Sven is playing his games console.
"Hey Kristoff" Anna says but he doesn't look up "Hellooooo"
The rather tough looking blonde guy lifts his head. " Sorry, I was texting my grandad Paddie happy birthday, he's turning 67 today and he got a new cat called Oaken" he turns round his smartphone and shows me and Anna the picture of the cat "Looks adorable right"
"Aww he's a cute little kitten" Anna says
"Yeah he's a nice little cat" you say
The boy looks at you after putting his phone in his pocket. "Hey aren't you that kid who moved from Corona at the beginning of the year?" He says as you reply with a nod. You, Anna and Kristoff talk for a bit whilst Sven Was lost in his game, Kristoff talks about his hockey games both on and off ice, Anna mentions about wintery things such as Snowmen, sledding, snowball fights and of course Christmas and you talk about you talent of Aikido, Arendelle Maths doesn't teach Aikido which upsets you but you now have two new friends.
As you talk about the weekend's football results to Kristoff you see Anna jump up, you look round and see Elsa passing your table, you eyes wander across the room as they are locked onto her, the enigma you still try to unlock. You are unable to avert your gaze as you hand comes alive and where you once was writing notes the page was turned and you was sketching Elsa as Anna greeted her and offered her a seat, which Elsa kindly denies before sitting at a solitary table.
You are then caught staring at Elsa by Anna you quickly avert your eyes to a poster for the Winter Disco at the end of term. "Boy your sister is an odd character" Kristoff says. "Hey Elsa just prefers her own space" Anna replied sharply giving him a small push. Kristoff apologised and kissed her cheek. "It's ok you're forgiven". Whilst this happens you are staring at Elsa, you writing hand still moving as it sketches her as she reads a book on application of geometry to architecture. She really was an enigma.
"Soo" Anna says staring at you with a grin slapped on her face " it looks like you like my sister" grabbing the picture you had sketched before you had the chance to stuff it into your jacket pocket. You look around nervously thinking how did she know? "It's fine" she said "your secret is safe with me" "but how I don't even register to her" you reply "but you think she is attractive, right" Anna says which makes you smile "yeah I guess so" you say.
"You know, a lot of people back away because they hear the whole Ice Queen stuff but the truth is far from that" Anna says with a twinkle in her eye "in fact she is one of the warmest and kindest people you could meet"
"She is?" You reply
"Yeah, you should see her with our brother Olaf" she says
You imagine Elsa playing games in a garden with the small boy.
"Hey how about you come to mine after school and I'll show you" she says with glee
"I would but I can't as I gotta do this thing"
"Pretty please. I just want her to make some friends as she doesn't really talk to me much and well I'm her sister but I look at you and see similarities between you too and maybe you might be the one who can change that. She says giving a slightly wide eyed look.
"Well I suppose I coul..." you look at Anna giving that look and then at Elsa when at that point you see some boys walk towards her saying "hey Ice Queen what ya readin'" Elsa has a small look of fear in her eye. Anna looks round "oh not again"
"Oi Ice Queen, you listening to me or what?" The lead bully says, his second in command grabs her book "Oi Ice Queen he asked you a question" with this Anna looks at you and Kristoff, "stay here I'm gonna go and sort this" to which you reply "I'm coming with" Anna looks at you "No it's not your fight (she says your name)" to which you get up and pass her saying "as I used to say to my friend Rapunzel when's that ever stopped me" you walk over as the bully who look her book hit Elsa over the head with it "and what seems to be the trouble here" you say to the lead bully.
He replies "go back to your book nerd, this isn't your concern" as the bully who took her book steps in front of you, you remove the handkerchief from you pocket as the lead bully drags Elsa up from where she sat
"Ah well you see I have a tendency to intervene when stupid rears it's head so I suggest putting her down before I put all 4 of you flat on your asses in the next 8 moves I make"
From this come back you see a small roar of "oohs" from the surrounding tables, this doesn't impress the lead bully.
"And who are you to tell me what I should do" he replies
"you heard me put her down before I put you down like damn dog you are"
With this threat the guy threw Elsa down hard smacking her head on the table as he and his friends lash out. He goes for a punch but you block it and head butt him as his mate grabbed a tray you hear this and duck when he swings it, hitting the lead bully in the face as you stand up and flip him over your shoulder making the head bully fall over , the other two bullies come charging in either side but you step back letting them crash into each other headbutting each other knocking them out,
You walk towards Elsa as the head bully punches you in the back of the head, making you land on the table but you manage to get up and out of his way as he ends up punching the table which you then flip him onto hurting his back, the bully who had the tray was up and ready to pounce but you flip him onto the ground and kick him. You go back to check on Elsa sitting near her when the head bully grabs you for a serious beating when you hear the voice of Mr Weselton approaching, the other bullies bolted "What is going on here?" He spots the bully fist raised over you "HANS SOTHERTON LET HIM GO IMMEDIATELY" the boy shoves you down as Mr. Weselton looks then points to you, Elsa, Hans, Anna and Kristoff and escorts you all to an office, you all eventually leave at the end of lunch.
"Are you Ok Elsa?" Anna asks
"Anna, I'm fine" she replies, the bruise on her head said otherwise as she rubbed it
You pull out an ice pack from the lunch box you keep in your satchel and give it to her wrapped in your handkerchief "here, take this it should bring down the swelling on that bruise"
She accepts the ice pack "Thanks for what you did back there..."
"Oh I'm (you tell her your name) and please it was nothing , anything to help others"
You all start to walk off to class except Kristoff who walks off to his class since he took a public services class instead of art.
As you was walking down the hall you turn to them and ask "that Hans joker, who the hell is he?"
Anna replies "he's the big school bully in our year, and like to target people like Elsa all the time"
"it's not that bad Anna" Elsa replies
Anna looks stunned at Elsa. "Elsa he has been tormenting you for ages now besides he doesn't care for anyone except himself" she says as we walk into class.
After class you walk out with Elsa and Anna only to be joined briefly by Kristoff and Sven before they have to leave on the bus, you meanwhile went to get you bike as Anna approached you "hey you still coming round right?"
Before You can say a word Elsa interrupts "wait as in, come to ours ?
"Yeah.. I um was wondering if we could have (your name) over to study this evening" Anna replies
"But you know how Kai and mum feel about having guests over without telling them first" Elsa says
You look at them both locked in glares so you interrupt "look if there is a situation, I don't have to come ov-"
Anna looks at Elsa giving her the puppy dog eyes she gave you earlier "please Elsa?"
Elsa looks at her but doesn't want to get the guilt for denying Anna, plus she was starting to feel guilt if she to turn you down. "Fine but don't say I never warned you Anna" at this point a black Mercedes pulls up. You and the girls walk up to it thankfully you bike is a city bike that folds up into a bag which you lock to the railings.
The window rolls down and you see a man in his early to mid 60s look at the girls and you he reminds you of Albert from the Batman films. Elsa goes and gets in the back of the car as Anna talks to the driver "hi Kai um is it ok if my friend comes over to study?" The man looks at Anna then you "do you think a guest is wise miss Anna" he says
You wonder why this man says this.
"Yes Kai I do besides he's coming to study" Anna chirps
"Very well then miss Anna" he nods his head at you, then looks at you bag "you may place that in the car boot" his voice reminds you however of Alan Rickman as Severus Snape as you place your bags in the car boot and climb into the back next to Elsa as the car glides away from the school.
