The Fairy and the Prince
"First day of school! Pretty exciting isn't it? Did you already move into your room? Lonnie's your roommate again right?" asks Chad as he casually leans against Jane's locker, hounding her with questions. A daily ritual between them. He would always stop by, pretend to care then leave with the popular people.
"What is it Chad?" asks Jane as she spins the locker combo for the fifth time. She could have sworn it was right on 5, left on 21, right on 17… or was it left on 5, right on 17, left on 21? Or was she forgetting the numbers completely?
"It is right 5, left 21, right 17," stats Chad casually as he struggled with his own locker. It was almost like telepathy between them.
"Yours is right 23, left 30, right 1," explains Jane as she takes out her text books. Chad smiles his brilliant white smile that always makes Janes heart flutter drastically as he took out a few books.
"So did you hear about the news?" asks Chad as they walked to class to gather. They always walked to class together. Just like, after move-in day, they always ate breakfast together before the school woke up since they were both morning people, and how they would split a dessert after diner because they never sat together and they both liked to catch up on what they did that day. It was those little things that made Jane think there was something more between them.
"What news?" asks Jane, trying to keep her heart under control. Trying not to look into that gorgeous brown eyes for eternity or swoon in his presence… which was hard since he was a Charming.
"Prince Ben declared that the Isle of the Lost Kids are to be coming here!" says Chad. "They're going to announce it officially today but Audrey gave me the 411 before we got here."
"Oh," says Jane disappointed. "You rode with Audrey today?"
"Yeah, hey! Audrey!" yells Chad as he rushes over to Ben and Audrey, the cutest couple on campus. The Golden Children of Auradon, the bright future of the next generation. And with Chad they became a triangle of gorgeousness. No wonder Chad didn't talk with Jane as much.
"What do you think their talking about?" asks Jane to Lonnie as she leans against the lockers, looking at those three beautiful people.
"Probably about beauty products… their not much they can talk about," says Lonnie as she tries to work with her hair.
"You know… he is intelligent," says Jane.
"Not to sound mean… but how? He sometimes stops midsentence, forgetting what he was saying or being captured by his good looks," says Lonnie as she give Jane a questionable look.
"He doesn't stop midsentence because he's dumb, he does that because he focused on something else," quips Jane, people always got the wrong idea about him. Maybe it was because of his perfect hair and his brilliant teeth or maybe it was his eye?
"You're drooling," jokes Lonnie as she gives her 'That's so cute' smile. Jane wipes her mouth anyways, just in case, and sighs.
"I'm sorry," says Jane as she tries to stop looking at Chad.
"You've liked him ever since we've been roommates," says Lonnie. "Ask him out already! This is starting to get pathetic"
Jane just lets out a laugh, she couldn't help it! Just ask him out? That was too funny. "I've liked him since before I could talk!" says Jane, after her laughing fit stops. "If I can't even tell him the words 'I love you' then what makes you think I can say them now?"
"Who do you love?" asks Chad right next to her. Jane screams a little in shock, not realizing he had been there the whole time and wondered how much of the conversation he heard.
"If she loves someone, shouldn't she ask him out?" asks Lonnie to Chad. Embarrassing Jane completely in the process.
"Well yeah! If its love sure… wait! Are we talking true love?" asks Chad, looking a little… confused, Jane was guessing.
"The truest form. She can't eat! She can't sleep!" jokes Lonnie, trying to mock Jane. Jane, on the other hand, was mortified. Here was her friend, telling the love of her life that she loved him for her. And all she could do was stare! And he didn't even think he could be the one they were talking about.
"What about the spark?" asks Chad.
"What spark?" Asks Lonnie, intensely curious at this point.
"The spark of true love," explains Jane.
"That's how my dad knew my mom was the one," explains Chad.
"Because when they touched to dance a spark passed through them," finishes Jane. And Lonnie gave that 'you're so cute' smile again. Jane just glared.
"But that rarely happens," quips Chad quickly, the gears in his head were spinning furiously.
"So did that happen to you? You know, you and that.. guy" asks Lonnie as if she was on the edge of her seat, waiting for the next scene to play out and the two to have a happily ever after.
"Lonnie~," says Jane as she shyly smiles away from the two, a blush covering her face.
"Of course it didn't!" says Chad, a little too forcefully. Jane sometimes wonders if he ever did grow up from being that little kid under the Willow tree.
"How do you know? Maybe it did?" says Jane, a little sassier then she intended. Chad look taken aback from this. So did Lonnie. She was a little confused by the situation, Jane never was sassy about anything.
"W-what?" asks Chad, a little confused by this sudden outburst, and Jane's sassiness threw him off. "What do you mean by that?"
"Nothing," says Jane as she just turns to walk to class.
"I thought Chad was your true love," whispered Lonnie as she tried to keep up with Jane. Having to gallop a little, which was strange since she had gorgeous legs that seemed to go on for miles, while Jane had these short legs moved like Twitty Bird.
"He is," says Jane blushing a little in embarrassment.
"Then… Oh! You weren't talking about another guy," says Lonnie finally understanding the situation.
"Why? Did it sound like I was?" asks Jane, starting to get really nervous. What if Chad got the wrong impression? What if he thought she was going to marry someone else? No! She had to breathe. She was in high school for heaven sakes. She should take things slowly. Worry about school now, get her degrees and then worry about Chad, if he was still available by then… If not… there was always other fish in the sea… right?
I just wanted to thank Girlmeetsworldfan123 who helped to describe Chad SO much better! It gave me a lot to work with and it was very fascinating :3 In this chapter I kind of wanted to explain Jane's crush as well as Chad (Which I might expand on the explanation over the next few chapters because I really did a horrible job here,) since I believe the Chad in the movie isn't the whole story. Just like this story isn't the whole story. (Clever no?)
I've been throwing around some ideas for a Chad version of this story. I would like this whole story to be Jane's POV but I was wondering… would there be any interest if I made a Spin-off series with Chad as the main POV? I know Chad isn't the most LIKED character but I really would like to explain his side of the story. Please tell me if there is, Via Message or Review. And I'm going to try and upload these regularly or as regularly as I can.
BloomingDomino I tend to hate Chad as well ;^; But I have think every person has a little good in them and I just think they need the right person to bring it out in them. :3 I know that's very childish to think and Everyone REALLY hates Chad but a lot of evil characters have been turned good, especially in Disney movies so hopefully? (Fingers crossed)
