So just to make sure no one is confused (or if you haven't read the first two chapters...which you might want to do...maybe...possibly...) I'm making things a little clearer: Every student starts the day in a homeroom class. It's not really "mess around time" but it isn't as serious a regular class is. Some students will even take the class again later in the day...I know...I made this so weirdly. :/

But anyways, here's a list of who has classes together (and some staff info too):

Group 1: Tink, Fawn, Terrence, Vidia, Rumble, Zarina, Periwinkle

Group 2: Silvermist, Iridessa, Rosetta, Clank, Bobble, Glimmer, Chloe

Principle: Clarion

Counselors: Summer, Autumn, Winter, Spring (yeah...Ministers are counselors here)

Teachers: Ms. Mary (Woodshop), Mr. Gary (Chemistry), Mr. Kerry (History), Ms. Terry (PE), Ms. Cherry (Biology), and that's it...for now...

Sorry for the ridiculously long AN here, please, enjoy :) (I still don't own Disney Fairies)


Pixie Hollow High 3: Love in the Air?

The day was coming to a close as the final minutes of sixth period passed away while a special announcement was made through the school intercom.

"...And we should all be ready to welcome our new Assistant Principle tomorrow morning. We trust our student body will make him feel right at home here. Thank you and have a wonderful rest of the day."

The news wasn't new. Pixie Hollow High had been expecting a new assistant principle for well over a week, but most students didn't pay much attention to the fuss. The staff seemed open enough to it, but the identity of the the new AP was a mystery to everyone, including the principle herself.

While their anatomy teacher, Mr. Larry, finished reminding the class of the quiz they would have in a few days Rosetta pulled out her phone and began once more to text.

Chloe was out sick, leaving the group of friends a member short but things were normal aside from that. Homework was moderately heavy, classes were long, and the pre-release anxiety was setting in as the student body envisioned all the wonderful things they could do outside school grounds. It seemed that only one was focused on the immediate future of the school.

"I wonder what this new Assistant Principle will be like," Iridessa said aloud, though not really aiming her words at anyone in particular, "do you think it'll be a man or a woman? And do you think he or she will be nice or really strict?"

"I hope nothing like the AP from junior high," Rosetta casually remarked while flipping through the pictures in an email.

"Oh, what was his name again?" Sil asked.

"I don't remember but he was a pain, wasn't he?" Rosetta recalled and rolled her eyes as a mental image of the older man popped into her head.

"He was okay," Iridessa voiced her opinion as the teacher sat down and let the last few minutes go to the students.

"He kind of scared me," Clank admitted, taking a moment away from scribbling down some cooky design he and Bobble were working on.

"Could you imagine what it would be like if our new AP was the one from Junior High?" Silvermist asked and giggled lightly.

"Now I'm the one who's scared," Rosetta commented as she put her phone back into her pocket.

"You guys are gonna come to the welcoming tomorrow morning, aren't you?" Iridessa inquired.

"I have swim practice," Silvermist reminded and apologized.

"And Bobble and I have to go in early to help Fairy Mary after she caught us trying to build a-"

"Clanky," Bobble interrupted swiftly, "we don't want that getting out, do we?"

"Oh, I guess you're right, ummm...we were... we were building a snow cone machine," Clank lied through his teeth; Bobble shook his head a bit in admiration for the attempt.

"Well, ok then, what about you Rosetta?" Dessa asked her friend, who was already on her phone again.

"I don't know," she replied, "I just don't care too much who becomes the new AP."

"Please! Please come with me! Tink and Peri can't make it and Terrence will probably be too busy with Mr. Gary again. I'm running out of friends here," Iridessa whined.

"Ok, ok, I'll go with you to welcome the new AP."

"Thanks, it'll be fun," Iridessa assured as the bell rang and the students rose almost on cue to exit the facility.

...

The sun had barely risen by the time Iridessa had tracked a reluctant Rosetta down and brought her to the front of the school to welcome the new Assistant Principle. In honor of the new arrival Principle Clarion was waiting with counselors Spring and Winter, each bearing a small token for the new arrival. Many students were also waiting, though the only ones required to be there were the key members of the ASB class.

While most other students and some of the teachers went about their business, the ones who had gathered at the front gates chattered and murmured amongst each other in anticipation. A cold air blew forward and despite the fact the weather had been quite warm the past few days many people thought it could rain at any time. If conditions were right, a few of them might even bet on it snowing.

"So, where is this new AP?" Rosetta asked her friend impatiently as she checked her phone for both the time and for any new text messages.

"I'm sure he or she is on the way. We only have to do this today anyways," Iridessa replied.

"Why do you even want to do this in the first place? You can meet this person at any time once their here."

"I used to be in ASB, and I've always been the kind of person who does things properly, and with respect. I'm here because I want to make this school look good and make us seem like respectable students."

"So what's your plan when the new AP meets Vidia?" Rosetta jested, though Iridessa felt like there was also a hint of sincerity in the question.

Iridessa looked a bit stumped by the question, but before she could tell Rosetta that no school was perfect in every regard a few of the other students gathered pointed towards a blue car that was familiar to only one person in the crowd. Principle Clarion and the counselors drew closer to the newcomer, as did the mass of gathered students.

Out of the bright blue car stepped a tall man with snow white hair. His khaki pants and short sleeve, white shirt gave him a professional feel, but by his expression and his posture he gave off an elegant air, rather than that of any common worker.

He stepped forward and laid eyes on all in attendance, his stern expression cracking in a few places upon getting a full view. He spoke in a british accent, though it was not too thick.

"Hello Pixie Hollow High, I'm the new Assistant Principle, Milori," He greeted with a small smile and a firm resolve to make a lasting impression.

Principle Clarion took a moment to take him in, but hardly anyone noticed the hesitation before she approached.

"Welcome to Pixie Hollow High, we are pleased to have you work with us to make the future of all Neverland Province that much brighter."

"Hello," welcomed the senior ASB representative, "it's a pleasure to have you here, sir."

The counselors shook hands and have names, but had no special dialogue like the principle or ASB rep. After that, Milori took a moment to say a few things as well:

"I'm quite flattered by this reception, and it is quite clear that this school's reputation precedes it. I look forward to getting to know each of you on a more...intimate level. I know we can do great things together, if you will have me."

With that he grabbed his bag and followed Principle Clarion and the counselors into the main office building for a quick tour and overview of important matters. Within minutes all students had dispersed and were preparing for their classes and Iridessa and Rosetta were no exception.

Yet, though she was smiling and felt content that Milori received a welcome worthy of Pixie Hollow High, Iridessa still felt as though something was amiss. She looked around and turned to find Rosetta looked deep in thought, her cell phone in her hand, but at her side, ignored.

"Rosetta? Everything OK?"

"This is horrible; we've got to do something about this," Rosetta said and then hurried off towards her locker.

"Wait what? What's going on?" Iridessa asked as she followed and tried to catch up.

"How could you miss something so obvious?" Rosetta asked, not in a mad way, but almost in disbelief, and then focused on her phone again, going straight into a fast and furious text.

"What's going on?"

"It's Clarion and Milori," Rosetta revealed, "they're in love...but they can't admit it. They can't go deeper than acquaintances because something happened in the past."

"And you know this...?"

"Trust me, sugar, I know these things."

"So what do you intend to do about it?" Iridessa asked nervously, feeling like she was about to get dragged into something she wasn't going to find very pleasant.

"Well we've got to fix things of course," Rosetta replied as she finished another text.

"But since when do you care about things like this?"

"I always care when it comes to true love...always."

They traversed the school grounds for a while longer, gathering their necessary supplies and heading out to their homeroom biology class.

Once inside, a quick intro lecture for the day was given, the previous day's pop quiz was handed back, additional unit worksheets were passed out, and the students were given time in class to spend as they pleased, so long as it helped to prepare them for the next test.

The groups of students working together formed, and Periwinkle joined Iridessa and Rosetta (Chloe was still sick, and thus was not there to join them as well).

"So what's the new AP like?" Peri asked as they sat down and scribbled down the first few obvious packet answers.

"He actually looks like you, especially the hair," Iridessa replied before Rosetta utterly and completely took hold of the discussion.

"He's probably very nice and good at his job, but that's not important. He's in love with Principle Clarion!"

"W-What? How do you know that?" Peri questioned, an almost exact replica of Iridessa's earlier questioning, though Peri looked less concerned and more confused.

"Does everyone around here doubt my expertise in the matter of love? I'm not the smartest person in the world, but I know fashion, beauty, and love like the back of my hand."

"OK, even if it's true, what would you do?" Peri asked while rummaging through her bag for an eraser.

"Exactly!" Iridessa supported and she neatly darkened the name, date, and period number on the paper, a habit of hers.

"Well we obviously have to get them to admit their feelings for each other," Rosetta responded, having put off her biology work for the moment to fiddle with her hair.

"Yeah, but how will you do that?" Periwinkle inquired again.

"Well...that's the part I'm still working out, but I know if we do it, we'll make them both a lot happier. It's our duty," Rosetta told them with a little drama added for effect.

"Hold on now, what do you mean we?" Iridessa questioned, letting her pencil hit the desk and her head shift form the question she was going over to her friend, who continued to nonchalantly meddle with her appearance.

"Hey, you're the one who asked me to come greet him with you, don't you think you owe it to do what has to be done now?"

"Not really..." Iridessa replied flatly.

"Well...I don't know if I should...maybe we should ask the others about it?" Peri said, putting her pencil up to her lips but refraining from biting it, an activity she would partake in while in elementary school.

"I know it seems a tad rash, but we owe it to the power of true love to do this, and I'm going to do it no matter what," Rosetta stated to them proudly.

"I guess I should make sure nothing too bad happens," Iridessa lamented, "so...oh okay...I'll help you out."

"Thank you; Peri?"

The girl with hair equally as majestic and refined as Milori's hesitated for a moment, but finally gave in at Rosetta's urging. She might not have been the most passionate person about some things, but when she was passionate about something, she really went all out.

"OK...I think I have an idea. Milori and Clarion will still be talking, I think, and even if they aren't I think we can get them together. This plan is foolproof...I think."

"That's a lot of thinks, Rosetta, but not a whole lot of certainty," Iridessa replied.

"Oh come on, this won't be so hard, and we won't get in trouble...probably."

"Oh whatever...I'm already knee deep, explain your plan," Iridessa told her as she and Peri listened in, occasionally filling in a blank or circling an answer choice from the biology packet.

...

The office door was closed and the hallway was silent. Class was half way in and the staff was already set in its routine. The coast was as clear as it was ever going to get.

Milori's new office was mostly bare of furniture, with only a visitor's couch and his work desk set up, and many boxes scattered along the floor, much of the contents exposed or alongside the boxes on the floor. The only window, on the west wall, let in some of the drizzly day's light, but the office itself was fairly dark, but not on any level that impaired either of the two from seeing the beauty of the other.

"You know...I am truly sorry for what happened a few years back," Milori stated after a minute or so of silence when their conversation about the parents he would be meeting for a school event not too far off ended.

"I believe it...I just don't know if I want what I used to anymore," she replied.

"Then was everything I had done in vain?"

"It was no fault of your own; I was the one who was changing, and I kept thinking that I could find a way to be with you when my heart never sensed one. For that...I am sorry."

"I never recovered after we separated, but I thought maybe you did...little did I know we would meet again."

"I was most shocked myself. If you do want to stay, then I would be more than happy to stand beside you as a friend, a coworker, a pillar...but I do not know if I can make myself your lover again."

"I understand."

"Milori...you were and always will be the greatest love I have ever known, but snow and sunlight just cannot coexist. One will perish. One has to."

"We tried to be together and it didn't work, we both admit that much. But we tried going alone too, didn't we? For these past few years, and I know it wasn't any better for me; what about you? What has the recent past said to you about the two of us?"

"It says that sunlight and snow cannot coexist...I'm sorry," She told him as a single tear slipped down her soft cheek and pelted the office ground with resounding impact.

...

When lunch arrived Rosetta was ready to make her move and she hurried off with Iridessa to grab Peri and someone else she needed.

"Wait what? Are you serious? This is crazy!" Terrence declared and tried to go off with Tink and the others, but Rosetta's words moved more mountains than Terrence's objections, and he too, had been roped into the quest.

"I know Terrence, but Rosetta's serious about this...we're going to get Milori and Clarion together...somehow..." Iridessa consoled...in a way.

"I don't want to mess with their lives," He continued to object as he was dragged along by the sleeve of his shirt, "why can't you get Bobble? Or Clank? What's wrong with Clank?"

Rosetta rolled her eyes and giggled with Peri, who found it funny in a different way, but funny nonetheless.

Finally they arrived in front of the offices for the higher ups of the staff. Not many students hung out around here during lunch, but there were more than a few within earshot of the foursome.

"Ok, now Iridessa, you get ready with Peri-Peri, you do the talking," Rosetta ordered.

"Got it," Peri replied.

"So what do I do?" Terrence asked, having reluctantly accepted his fate.

"You have to kiss me," Rosetta replied as if she had merely said the sky was blue.

"Excuse me?" Terrence asked in surprise and took a step back, attracting the attention of a couple other students nearby.

"Don't be a baby about it. This is for the good of romantic love," Rosetta explained, but Terrence maintained a look of disbelief.

"No way...no way...I can't do this!"

"It doesn't mean anything, we just have do it for the betterment of love; it'll be fine," Rosetta stated and drew nearer, but Terrence took another few steps back.

"I can't do it!"

"Come on Terrence," Peri said, "just pretend Rosetta is my sister!"

"WHAT?" He asked in surprise and flipped his entire body to face her, a nice, red blush filling his cheeks. Peri, Iridessa, and Rosetta had a good laugh at the gesture.

"Terrence please! I'll owe you," Rosetta pleaded.

"...no..." Terrence replied, his legs still shaken and his face still red.

"Terrence my sister doesn't care if you kiss another girl," Peri added to Rosetta's case.

"Pfft, ha ha," he replied sarcastically, "...I don't have any feelings like that, I just...don't want to do this."

"But we need you and time is running out," Peri urged.

"I can't do it...I just...can't."

Peri wanted to speak up again while Iridessa was content to wait and watch the three interact, unsure of what the ultimate outcome would be. Rosetta however, had gone silent and started scrolling down a page on her phone.

"I appreciate the opportunity, and I get what you're doing is important-to you guys- but I just can't..." He trailed off his jaw dropped at the picture on Rosetta's phone.

"If you don't help, I guess maybe I could suddenly remember to text this picture of you, in a kilt, with Mr. Gary to the others...I'm sure Tink would love it," Rosetta threatened with a contrasting sweetness.

Terrence remained silent and stared at the picture. The dares he took sometimes...

"Fine. I still don't like it though," he told them.

"See, was that so hard?" Rosetta asked and giggled, then sent out Peri and Iridessa to fetch Milori and Clarion.

...

"But what could make you consider something like that?" Milori asked Clarion, still inside his office.

"I don't know...I can't know until I see it. I'm just not ready to accept something like that without seeing it first."

"So if you saw it," Milori asked gently, not wanting the conversation to erupt into argument as it almost had once or twice earlier, "you would believe it?"

"I want to believe it, but I've never seen something like that was deep and powerful enough to convince me. As much as I want to, I have never seen it."

"If that changes...I will be there...I am now, just in a different light."

At that, Iridessa and Periwinkle rushed in, causing the two principles to put a little more distance between them.

"Principle Clarion! Oh, and Principle Milori, good! Hurry, you have to see something!" Peri told them urgently, making the two adults stare at each other for a moment and follow the two girls outside.

"What's wrong?" Milori asked as the four hurried through the halls of the building and towards the exit.

"Hurry," Peri urged, refusing to directly answer his question and keep the school leaders in the dark on the matter.

Once outside they found nothing out of the ordinary, though not many people were around anyways.

"Why did you call us out here?" Principle Clarion questioned, a more authoritarian demeanor rising to her voice than was usual for her.

"This way!" Peri once more non-descriptively guided them forward, this time behind a patch of nearby bushes sitting on a small, mostly decorative, field of grass.

Waiting there for them were two figures, extremely close, and the two adults were taken somewhat aback.

Rosetta buried her head into Terrence's chest, silently nudging him to do what he was told before they started, but he was freezing up at seeing the principles gaze at him with apprehensive intrigue. He stumbled about his words before Rosetta then took action of her own.

"We might be embarrassed about it, we might not fit in well together in the eyes of others, but I want you more than anything in this world!" She cried out to him and jumped up into him, causing him to fall back into the bushes in surprise and be caught off guard by a passionate kiss. His face went redder than Tink's did when she got angry, and that was no easy feat.

"What is going on here?" Milori again questioned, this time more seriously, and Clarion also got closer to the two girls that led them there, but they were left unable to do much else but stumble over their words.

Rosetta, who pretended not to notice either two adults, took her lips away and caught her breath, and spoke up again: "Terrence, I know you have doubts, I have them too, but some of the best things in life come from opposites. If you'll love me, then I will love you, let the world say what it wants!" She again embraced him before Milori went over and forcefully separated the two.

"That is quite enough. If you ask me your actions weren't at all appropriate for this school, and I'm sure Principle Clarion-" Milori began to say, but when he looked over he saw her raise and hand and smile softly.

"Congratulations on finding true love Rosetta and Terrence," She told them, jokingly, and Terrence wasn't sure he could take much more without fainting-maybe worse.

Then Milori backed down and exited, Clarion looking over all four students and laughing gently at their antics.

"Principle Clarion?" Iridessa spoke out, not sure exactly what she and the others should be feeling or doing at the current moment.

"Thank you all, for going so far to show me that snow and sunlight might just be able to coexist...especially you, Rosetta."

Rosetta smiled brightly and warmly, but declined to say anything in response. In truth, she was amazed her plan worked so well...she tried to generally cover the barriers against love and illustrate that it was okay to be in a relationship regardless. Elaborate plans were not part of her forte, but as she had promised, in the name of true love, she had helped out two misguided souls.

"I really am glad that you all went through so much for me-especially you Terrence. Good luck," She teased and walked off as well, leaving the four students amazed at what had happened.

"Well that was horrible," he remarked, "remind me to never do that again."

Rosetta put on a look of shock: "Are you saying I'm not a good kisser?"

"What? No, no, no, no, no. I was just-"

"You know you're kind of a bad boy now, Terrence. Always flirting with my sister, and now you've Rosetta coming for you too," Peri joked.

"Har har, come on guys, stop-"

"You dog!" Iridessa joined in and shared a giggle with the others, who laughed even harder after he began to walk away, mumbling.

"Alright...I'm done here...have to put up with this..."

...

As the last of the students headed home and the campus began to lock down, Milori and Clarion stood quietly outside the office building.

"It wasn't that bad!" Rosetta consoled a downtrodden Terrence as they walked off together.

"Perhaps the students here have much more to show the teachers, and principles, than I ever imagined," Clarion told her colleague, who nodded in agreement.

"Like how sunlight and snow might just be able to coexist?" He inquired a little playfully.

"Perhaps..."

"It was an interesting first day, and I look forward to many more to come."

"As do I," Clarion replied as he grabbed her hand with his own.


OK, so how was it? I don't usually do romance/shipping stuff...I don't think it was horrible, but geez...IDK...hopefully it wasn't too bad.

On that note: I do not support Terrence x Rosetta...I kind of made that up on the spot, but i did kind of have fun with that.

Please come back and read the next one, whenever I put it out, cause I have quite a few more ideas, it's just a matter of sitting down and writing them out. Till then, much love and thanks,
