Chapter 1

- "ANNAAA! WAKE UP!" Ariel yelled frustrated while knocking hardly on the door. Anna was not a morning person and this particular day was always the worst. This was her first day in school on her senior year. She yawned exhausted and muttered,

- "Please bring back the two months of summer vacation I've lost, Ariel." She lay down her head and closed her eyes, but was immediately woken up when a pillow hit her head. "Ugh!" she moaned displeased. She opened her eyes and was met by her laughing older sister. Ariel said cheerfully,

- "Wake up sleepyhead! And I'm serious, I really recommend you fix that before leaving so get up!" She ran downstairs before Anna could throw a pillow back at her. Anna got out of bed with a discontented moan. When she saw her reflection in the mirror, she grumbled at her bedhead,

- "Well isn't this just wonderful. This will take hours before looking the slightest bit of presentable." She sent her brush through the messy locks and grinned at the pain. "Oh well, what a girl won't do to look beautiful," she forced herself to think while frowning.

After five minutes of intense torture her hair was straight and she started braiding it into the usual two braids. As a final touch she let her bangs hide parts of her freckled forehead. She had a strange relationship with her freckles. Some days she loved the natural charm they brought to her face and other days she despised them for making her look like a tomato in the head. This day was one of the bad days.

She envied her sister for being a redhead with no freckles. After all Ariel had always been the lucky one of the two sisters. She was beautiful, fun, interesting, and her High School years had been so easy for her because of her outgoing attitude. She had always been so popular she even dated the most popular guy in school at the time. Eric was his name and now when he had to leave town to go to college they still managed to keep in touch. Ariel was taking a year off school to earn some money and travel a bit. So for the next four months she would be living at home and bothering Anna with her endless positivity.

Anna was quite opposite from her sister. She had a huge problem with rambling too must for her own good sometimes and she was so clumsy that she often brought herself in awkward situations at school. She had often stumbled upon something while holding her tray with food in the cafeteria, which always turned out that she got food all over her face and the whole cafeteria laughing at her.

Her awkwardness did not allow her to have that many friends in school but she managed to gain a few anyway. Rapunzel and her twin brother Kristoff who was sometimes just as clumsy as Anna and Belle, who was so obsessed with reading books all the time and live in her fantasy world that she did not realize how beautiful she was. Gaston, the biggest asshole in the world but also the most popular guy in school, often stared at Belle in a totally inappropriate way but she never noticed because her mind was always stuck in her favorite story of all – Beauty and the Beast. Rapunzel and Kristoff lived on a farm where they had all sorts of animals inclusive the elegant and brave horse, Maximus, the sly chameleon, Pascal, and the faithful until the end reindeer, Sven, who was Kristoff's favorite. Anna loved visiting all the animals and not at least their loving family, which was a bit different from her own.

Anna's father worked as an agent in CIA, which caused him to be away a lot to work in foreign countries. Her cousin Kim, who was a year younger than Anna, looked up to him so much. Anna wished she could say the same but with all the birthdays, ceremonies in school and other important days where he'd promised that he would be there but didn't show up, she had been so disappointed of him that it had hurt. But she also learned something important about it and that was that she shouldn't expect anything from him anymore. And that had helped a lot.

She took one last look at her reflection, sighed and left the chair to go to her closet. She chose a pair of army green shorts and a white T- shirt, the usual stuff, and went downstairs to get some breakfast. Her mother and sister were talking over a cup of coffee at the table when Anna got there. She could smell the aroma of hot chocolate the minute she walked into the room. Even though it was summer, Anna would never say no to a cup of hot chocolate.

- "Wow mum," She said pleased. "What are we celebrating?" Suddenly her mother caught her in a warm loving hug while she said close to tears,

- "Oh my little girl, I can't believe it is your first day as a senior." Anna chuckled at her hypersensitive mother and hugged her bag just as warmly.

- "It's okay mum", she said. "Its not like I'm moving out or anything". Her mother laughed a bit and let go of her tight embrace. Anna went to the kitchen table where Ariel and the delicious cup of hot chocolate were waiting for her. Once she got there she took a big swallow from the creamy fluid, which left a big mark on her upper lip. Ariel laughed at the picture. Anna frowned,

- "What is it now?" This only caused Ariel to burst harder into her laughter,

- "Next time you decide to make out with the cup you might wanna check the leftovers". Anna rolled her eyes blushing while licking of the sweet paradise that was stuck between her upper lip and nose. She only managed to just be finished with her drink before her mother saw what time it was and stressed out.

- "Oh Ariel, do you think you can do without the car today? Otherwise Anna will be late and make a bad impression on her first day of school," she said nervously. Ariel was totally calm when she answered her mom,

- "Why don't I just drive her? Then she spares the time looking for a parking lot." The proud look in her mother's eyes was answer enough for the redhead.

- "Okay sis, lets go then," she called at Anna. Soon both of them sat in the car on their way to the school. Ariel tried to start conversation,

- "Are you exited?" Anna shrugged her shoulders.

- "Well, not really," she answered. "I don't see why this year should be any different from the last two." Ariel frowned uncomprehendingly.

- "Haven't High School been fun at all?" Anna sighed. She knew she was being ungrateful and unfair. After all, Aurora and her friends hadn't been bullying her with her freckles every single day. And she had her dear friends Rapunzel, Kristoff and Belle.

- "I'm sorry Ariel, of course there has been moments where I have enjoyed myself, but I'm afraid that I will never feel the same way about it as you," she sighed. Ariel stopped the car when they reached the school.

- "Thanks for driving me sis", Anna said cheerfully while kissing her sister on the cheek. But Ariel grabbed Anna's hand when she was about to step out of the car.

- "What is it Ariel?" she asked concerned when she saw the look of her sisters face.

- "I'm sorry that I didn't do anything to make it easier on you", she said with a shameful voice. Anna smiled at her and gave her a warm hug.

- "Its fine, you'd never have to apologies. But I really have to go before I'll miss my class", Ariel put a little squeeze into the hug before letting her go. She smiled at her little sister running into the school before she started the car to drive back home.

Anna hurried though the hall and the corridors until she finally reached her class. She inhaled and exhaled deeply and stepped into the room.

The same morning…

Elsa went through her things with trembling hands. She had checked her bag ten times already, but it was ok. She didn't want to forget something important. She looked at the great clock in the living room nervously. Unconscious her eyes went to look at the picture of her parents, which hang beside the clock. She walked closer and held the picture in her left hand. She felt tears forming in her eyes. She let out a little sob while saying,

- "Please help me dad. Help me get through this year. Its only for one year and then I will leave to live in the forest, somewhere no one will find me and I can be who I am without hurting anybody." The last sentence was pointed at herself. She put back the picture and turned to check the bag one more time before leaving the enormous house. Elsa's platinum blond hair was tied in a bun with her bangs down, covering her forehead. She wore tight blue jeans, a black, polo neck T-shirt with long sleeves and black leather gloves, even though it was twenty degrees outside.

She drove in the car to school pretty early so she managed to find a parking lot. One last deep breath was taken before she stepped out of the vehicle and headed towards the office of the school. She was met by a group of highly muscled boys who immediately stared at her in awe once she got into the hall. They had never seen such beauty before. Her platinum blond hair was glowing like snow when the sun drops its light on it, her pale skin was so clean and shimmering that it almost looked like ice, her teeth was straight and flawless, and the wide icy blue eyes, though filled with fear, shined like diamonds.

Elsa felt uncomfortable of all the eyes that were staring at her. She didn't stop for a second. The last thing she wanted to do was to bring attention towards herself. But she didn't know how impossible it was to avoid. Everything about her screamed elegance and beauty, even the way she moved wasn't like anything these hormone filled boys had ever seen before. It was almost like she was flying through the corridors and into the office. When she got out of sight one of the boys, a black haired one, finally managed to say,

- "What just happened?"
