The Academy
HEY! So this is like my first Tangled Fan fiction and I've had this idea for ages! Please tell me what you think about me putting other Disney princesses and princes! This story is about how all the princesses and princes go to school as normal Teenagers. Main paring is Rapunzel and Eugene, feel free to tell me what pairings you would like to see (Canon only!) *sigh*. Anyway...
Enjoy!
Chapter One: Another Year Of School.
The only thing most students like about 'The Academy'- apart from their friend's- was the generous amount of time given for the holidays. Now that was great, you could hang out with your friend's, go to late night parties, have a total smash, but on the other hand you could always stay home, eat pizza and stare at the TV for hours on end. The point is you could do almost anything you wanted to- If your parents said so. And that's exactly what Flynn did.
Well most people did that anyway.
He spent all his time at parties or eating pizza, watching repeats of 'Revenge', I guess you could say he was a bit of both worlds- not my words, totally his! And to his dad's disappointment, the only thing he achieved in school was getting the dumbest blond in his year- although he preferred brunets.
Ok, now let's get this straight, Flynn Rider is the most popular boy at the academy along with his best friend Aladdin, meaning he was invited to all the parties and had all the girls and if you asked him what his best trait was, he would always say his 'Smoulder'.
Every single kid in his year was dreading the moment their parent shouted for them to get out if bed and this Rider was defiantly one of them. He was NOT looking forward to yet another year of school. More new students bumping into you in the hall ways and asking for directions, he was so not up for it this year.
Being a third year did have its perks though, not that he knew, he was gonna start that this year, but he had heard and seen thing's about third year privileges, like getting a table just for them instead of having to look for one and of course everyone was scared of you witch he though was pretty bad ass.
Flynn was the kinda guy who improvised on everything, he was the definition of wake-up-late-and-rush-to-get-ready type, and today was no exception.
"Eugene! Get your ass down here now!" his dad bellowed from the down stairs. No Flynn was in no way up for it today.
"Go away!" He shouted back pulling the pillow over his head. He hated waking up early especially on the first day of school There was a minute of silence and Flynn had though he had won until his door was thrown open by his dad.
"You're going to be late for school!"
"No I'm not I always wake up at seven thirty." He mumbled from under the pillow.
"Well then, you should know it eight." Shit, this was not good he only had fifteen minutes to shower and do his hair, so not good. Flynn jumping out of bed and ran into the bathroom to get ready, there was no time for his usual soak, and as girly as it sounds he did love his bath's. He brushed his teeth while waiting for the shower to get ready, as lame as that is he didn't have the best shower in the world, it took hours for the water to get ready.
"I'm gonna get going to the garage now!" his dad said from the other side of the door.
"Ye, see ya!" He said trying not to spit his tooth paste out everywhere.
Once he had finished his bathroom routine he came out in a towel and a jar of gel in his hand, he set it down on his desk, he looked around his room to see his dad had already left for work. He got dressed and walked over to his desk and picked up the jar. He looked himself over in the mirror. Hmm what style today, bad ass or biggest bad ass?
"Let's go for biggest bad ass." He said to himself as he started to get his hair into portions and gel them up then let them flop back down. He had to admit he did look sexy this morning, he blew himself a kiss through the mirror and got his bag.
He ran down stairs and grabbed himself a breakfast bar and then made his way to his truck, it wasn't the best mode of transport but it had to do until he had enough to buy a better one. Flynn had the felling today would be a bad day- but then again he was always wrong.
Remember how I said MOST kids only liked the holidays and their friends, well ye, anyway most just meant around six and one of them just so happened to be a girls called Rapunzel, now Rapunzel had never been to school before and well you could say she was home schooled although from only three books- not a lot right.
Once she was recovered by the police Rapunzel's real parents could not be happier after 18 years away they had a lot of catching up to do and said they would get her a privet tutor, so she could be at home more- having a small jewellery business did have its up's. Rapunzel wanting to be around other people her age and promptly disagreed saying it would be better to go to a public school. For example, 'The Academy' and after a lot of persuasion they finally said yes.
Rapunzel was thrilled with the idea of going to school unlike the schools bad boy Flynn Rider. She had bought all the necessaries books, pens, pencils the whole package.
She was awake before the birds sitting in the bath having a grand soak with vanilla scented soap- oh how she loved the smell.
"Rapunzel dear, are you ready?" her mother said as she knocked on the bathroom door.
"Umm ye mum, just getting out of the bath now." She said as she drained the water out and stepped out wrapping a towel around her small frame.
"Ok honey, do you want a ride to school?"
"No thanks I'll take my bike if that's okay?" she said hopefully, she didn't want everyone's first impression of her to be the little spoiled girl, she just wanted to be known as Rapunzel.
"Sure honey, I'm gonna make breakfast so come down when you're ready."
Rapunzel gave a small grunt as she dried her brown locks. She had cut it short and dyed it brown as an act of rebellion against Gothel. The best thing about it was that it was easy to manage and didn't take long to dry, so before she knew it she was ready to go.
She had put on a pair of dark jeans and light purple jumper that she thought contrasted nicely with her hair, she wanted to look her best for her first day at school. She brushed her hair down and then went down stairs to where her mum and dad were.
Her dad was reading a newspaper and her mum was cooking bacon and eggs. "Morning Dad." She said as she sat opposite to him at the dinner table. Her dad put down his paper and looked at her with a bright smile.
"Morning sweetie, excited about your first day of school?" It was so obvious that she was, as when she talked her voice cracked slightly with her excitement and she was practically bouncing in her seat.
"You have no idea!" she said "I can't wait to meet new people!" he gave of a hearty laugh at her enthusiasm.
"I can see," her mother said as she came in with the food. "Eat up your gonna need all the energy you can get."
"Thanks mum it looks delicious." Her mother nodded and sat down next to her. They ate making small talk about all the rules and there was an important one had to say to her.
"And remember NO boys until your twenty understand?" Rapunzel laughed she hadn't really been thinking about boys she was much too excited about meeting the girls to care. She had heard they were all nice and fun to be around.
"Yes dad, I understand."
"Ok good."
"Ok" she quickly glanced at the clock. "Well I gotta go."
They said there good byes and Rapunzel made her way toward the door she put on a pair of converses the same colour as her jumper. She walked up to her bike clipping her helmet on she jumped on and started paddling to school. As the wind brushed against her hair and the sun shone bright in the clear sky. She had a feeling that today would be a good day- and she was usually right.
Once Rapunzel reached the school she looked at the large structure engrossed by its beauty, she had never seen anything so grand in her life the windows were stained and the bricks white as snow. It was truly a scene to behold. She stood there just looking at the building until she heard someone clear their throat behind her.
She turned around to see a red head standing before her.
"Hey I'm Ariel!" She said sticking a hand out, she looks nice. Rapunzel thought as she stuck out her hand to meet Ariel's in a hand shake.
"Hi, I'm Rapunzel, I'm new here." She said sheepishly, now she was nervous about meeting new people.
"Really! So I'm I maybe we should stick together huh? What do you say?" Wow school hasn't even started yet and I already have a friend. Rapunzel had a big smile on her face now.
"That would be great!" She said jumping and she clapped her hands together. "I mean sure." She shrugged. Arial laughed and grabbed her hand.
"Come on we don't want to be late on our first day now do we?"
"I guess not!" she said still smiling. They ran down the busy hall way dogging the other student saying 'Sorry' every time the bumped into someone. The bell went and then they realised they had no idea where they were going so they asked the nearest person to them.
"Umm, excuse me do you know where b5 is?" Ariel had asked a girls who seemed to into her book to care. "Excuse me, hello." She continued waving a hand in front of the girls face.
The girl snapped out of her trance and looked up at them. "Ah, Hello."
"Hey. Do you know where b5 is?" She asked again.
"Oh, I'm going there too! I just saw this book on top of the lockers and kinda got distracted reading it. My names Bella by the way."
"Ariel, and this is my friend Rapunzel." She said gesturing over to the said girl. Rapunzel smiled and waved.
"Great follow me, I think I know where it is."
"Ok!" they both said and followed Bella down the corridor. Soon they reached a door that had a sign saying B5.
"Well this is it then." Bella said when no one made a move to go in.
"I know but I'm scared were late you know what if everyone stares." Rapunzel said. There it was again she was turning into a nervous wreck.
"Oh, come on it can't be that bad right." Ariel comforted.
Rapunzel looked up at her unsure. "Well… ok."
"Cool let's go!" Bella said. She opened the door to the class and every one turned their head to look at them. Rapunzel was right.
"See there staring at us!" she whispered to Ariel, but she just shrugged.
The teacher turned to them. "Hello there, you must be Bella, Rapunzel and Ariel right?" they all nodded.
"Okay the take a seat, I won't mark you in as late as this is your first day but make sure it doesn't happen again, ok?"
"Okay Miss. They said in sync and took a seat at the back. They each had a table and chair to themselves.
"Okay class now my name is Miss. Jane and I'm going to be the person who registers you in the morning, ok?" there was a chorus of yeses the bell went for the second time and every one stood up quickly. "Don't forget to come here at the end of the day to be registered again!" every one filed out of the class going to their next class. Their teacher seemed nice enough, she had middle length brown hair, a lean shape and very kind features.
"Guys what class do you have next?" Rapunzel asked as they walked to their designated lockers.
"Well I have English." Bella said pulling an English book out of her bag.
"Oh I have Science, what about you Punzi'." Ariel answered also pulling out a book just this one was about science.
"Cool I have science too."
"Hey! Bella over here!" Came a voice from behind them, the turned around to see a girl with blond hair in a light blue summer dress.
"Hey Ella!" Bella said engulfing the girl in a hug. "Guys meet Ella she's my best friend from way back. Ella this is Ariel and Rapunzel" and pointed at them.
Ella held out a hand toward them. "Hello, it's nice to meet you!" Rapunzel and Ariel shook her hand and said hello. It just so happened that Ella -better known as Cinderella- had English too so she would be walking with her to class.
"Well we need to go or we'll be late for class bye guys." Ella said pulling Bella off to class.
"Ok, well we will see you at break you two!" Ariel shouted after her.
"Sure!" She said back and continued off to her class with the blond girls chatting happily.
They were walking for a while before Rapunzel spoke up. "Well she was nice."
"Ye, she was wasn't she?" Rapunzel nodded and they continued on there way.
They walked down the hall making small talk about thing they liked to do and their parents. Rapunzel didn't say anything about Mother Gothel or her old blond hair, she would tell her when she knew she could be trusted, not that she doubted her just that she found it hard to trust people these days.
"So this is the science room, you go in first." Ariel said pushing her towards the door.
"Nu-uh you go!" she said glaring at her pressing her heals into the ground to stop Ariel from pushing her even further.
"No you go, please!" She begged making her blue eyes wide- she looking something close to a crying puppy.
"Ah, Fine!" Rapunzel huffed, who was she to resist such a cute face? She opened the class room door and walked in. It was a large lab with test tubes scattered around along with goggles and other fluids. Most of the student were already at their desks and ready to learn
"Hello, please sit down." The teacher said pointing to two desks at the back of the room. "Now, today were going to learn about the skeletal frame." He said picking up a piece of chalk and writing his name on the board. 'Mr Fraud' "My name is on the board. Ok now I need one of you to go to Mrs Motta to get some books. Anyone?" No one out their hands up they didn't want to go, they didn't know the teacher and didn't want to be alone with them, without their friend's. "Ok, you, with the short hair." He said waving a finger at Rapunzel.
"Me?" She said pointing at herself. What! Her heart started to beat faster, she didn't want to go. No!
"Yes you, go to Mrs Motta and ask for twenty blue books. Her rooms the last one on this corridor." He ordered pointing towards the door, in total commando mode.
"Uhhh, Ok." She said, she looked over at Ariel and she gave her a pleading look and Ariel gave her the I-would-go-with-you-but-I'm-not-bothered look. Rapunzel frowned her eye brows and hurried out of the room.
School was harder than she thought and the day hadn't even started yet. She gave of a large sigh and began walking down to Mrs Motta's class room once she got there she knocked at the door.
A ginger lady opened the door she had bright blue eyes and a paint brush behind her ear.
"Hi. How can I help you?" She asked softly.
"Hu, M-Mr Fraud S-sent me here t-to get some blue b-books." She stuttered. She didn't look too bad.
"Oh you must be knew! Come in, I haven't got a class this morning so you can sit at the desk while I get them for you!" Then she walked over to cupboard and flicked the light on. Rapunzel looked around the room this was defiantly an art room. Many painting lined the walls of the room. She noticed a pencil and piece of paper and started to sketch- she had nothing better to do.
A minute later the woman came back out with the blue books, when she noticed Rapunzel scribbling on a piece of paper, she put the books on her desk and peered over her shoulder. Rapunzel had drawn the outline of a flower and was currently shading it with the pencil.
"Wow, you're a very talented artist!" She complimented, the drawing was beautiful with curling petals and dew drops covering them. Rapunzel blush at the compliment.
"Thanks I guess." She mumbled.
"No problem, so the books are here," She said walking over to the desk and handing them to her. "Do you think you can manage?" They were kinda heavy, but Rapunzel could handle it, she did have to carry a whole meter of hair on her head before you know.
"Yes, it's not that heavy thanks." She said smiling. "Bye Mrs,"
"Ok, bye." She said waving.
Rapunzel walked out of the class the books were in a tall pile in front of her blocking her view slightly. The teacher had been very nice and she hoped all the other teachers would be that kind.
As she walked she herd footsteps coming from ahead, it sounded like someone running. To focused, on the job at hand- carrying the books- she didn't look up until something crashed into her. She heard a voice curse and form the sounds of it, it was probably a boy.
And just like that she was on the floor laying on her back staring at the white ceiling.
The boy stood up quickly "Oh my, gosh I'm so s-" But stopped when she sat up. She was pretty and she was a brunet. Nice she must be knew, play it cool Rider. He composed his self quickly and started his pick-up-the-girl routine. "Hey, how you doin' the names Flynn rider." He said making his smoulder. Rapunzel just looked at him dumbstruck, what was he doing with his face? Was he hurt?
"Umm, is something wrong with your face? Are you hurt?" She asked as she started to pick up the fallen books. Flynn was shocked, no girl had ever, ever resisted his smoulder.
"This is kinda an off day for me." He explained rubbing the back of his neck.
"Ok…" She said standing up all books stacked in her arms neatly. "Well I need to go so… see ya!" She said walking off.
"Wait!" he called after her. She turned around. "What's your name Blondie?" he asked curiously, she had just resisted his smoulder, and he thought he had some sort of right to.
She gave him a funny face. "Why would you call me Blondie, I'm not even blond?" She asked. Could he have possibly knew she used to be blond?
He just shrugged. "Don't know most girls I know are blond so… ye." Oh.
"Oh ok. My name is Rapunzel… and I'm late." She said nervously, if she came back late she would be in a lot of trouble she knew it.
"Ok, ok what class you in?"
"Science." She mumbled, she really had to go!
"Oh you have that dick, Mr Fraud don't you." He said grinning, he knew how bad that teacher could be and trust me you don't what to know how he knows.
"Well I don't know if I'd call him… you know, but he certainly isn't pleasant if that's what you mean." Wow new girl using big words, well big word for Flynn that is.
"Umm ye… what you said." He Mumbled. What the great Flynn rider mumbling never! "Well I'll let you get back to your class, I need to get to class, and I'm late as it is. I hope to see you again." He said voice back to normal sending her a charming grin, that would make any girl faint dead in the hall way.
"Thank you." She said blushing. Wow this stranger was certainly handsome. She walked off she looked back to see if she was still there and when she saw he was gone she let out a big breath. Totally smooth she told herself. She tried her best to play it cool he was cute, but she didn't have time for boys. Plus her dad had told her no boyfriends till she was twenty, and she wanted to listen to her dad.
She made her way back to the class and the teacher turned to her. "Took you long enough."
"Sorry I guess I just got lost." She said nervously hoping that he wouldent catch on to her lie.
"In the hall way." He asked raising a thin eyebrow. Great going Rapunzel!
"Um well up and down… you know, what up and what's down right?" she said giving off a nervous laugh.
"Hmm, give out the books and take your seat." He said. She did as he said and took her seat next to Ariel. Wow great save! She thought. But… also the first lie of the school year. Great. She sighed this was not good.
Ariel looked at her suspiciously she didn't really think she would believe that up, down crap did she? "So what really happened?" She whispered to her when the teacher wasn't looking.
Rapunzel looked shocked was she that obvious. "Up and down remember?"
"Come on please tell me!" she whined.
"Fine I bumped into this guy on the way back and fell over ok?"
"Did he tell you his name what did he look like!?" She asked suddenly interested in the matter.
"Flynn… something can't remember. Oh and he made this face that made him look constipated." She said shrugging.
"You mean Flynn Rider!" she screeched, wow is this really how girls got when talking about boys.
"Ye that's it."
"Omg! He's like the hottest boy in the school, he goes to all the parties! And the face you called constipated is called his 'Smoulder' and it charms every single girl!" She said looking of into the distance.
"Cool." Rapunzel didn't get what the big deal about him was he was just some boy right?
"Not your thing is it, talking about boys?" Ariel asked twirling a piece of red hair between her fingers.
"Nope, My dad told me no boys till I'm twenty, two years too go." she said. It seemed kinda weird that Ariel knew about him and it was her first day here. "How do you know about him anyway?"
"Everyone knows about him he's like a celebrity! Its all-over Facebook," She said "I can't wait to tell Bella and Ella about this! Oh and have you noticed their names rhyme!"
"Ye I did! But I still can't see what the big deal is, he's just a boy." She mumbled under her breath. Right?
