Anna sat in the lunch room happily eating her food. it was delicious. She had been there a while, but to her surprise there was absolutely no sign of Elsa, who would normally be here shortly after she was. That was strange.
Could Elsa have gotten in to trouble? No that couldn't be. Sure the fact she had broken up with Hans had spread throughout the school that morning, but Hans had apparently abandoned his classes after that to avoid the humiliation that came with it. so it was safe to say that Elsa was probably held up by someone else.
Anna sighed and her face fell into her hands. She knew that Elsa had a crush on some boy, but she wished that she knew where Elsa was, if she was with that boy.
"Anna" said a voice. Anna looked up and to her surprise she saw her boyfriend Kristoff.
"Kristoff?" Anna said in disbelief. Kristoff didn't have lunch right now he was supposed to be in class. "what are you doing here?"
Kristoff shrugged "I had a few minutes so I decided to come and see you."
Anna broke into a grin "thanks". Kristoff looked around "where is Elsa? Don't you to normally have lunch together."
Anna nodded "yeah, but she is not here today"
Kristoff frowned "if you want, maybe I could take you to dinner tonight?"
Anna nodded "that would be awesome!" she said
Kristoff walked away.
Anna returned to her glum mood. Sure going out with Kristoff was going to be fun, they were dating. But still, Elsa was supposed to be here. Where was she?
A sudden laugh broke Anna out of her reverie. Looking up she saw Elsa with a… cute looking boy! Anna blushed. He had a charming smile and he seemed to be the source of the laughter.
Wow. Was this the boy Elsa fell for? If so she could she why. He was hot! Wait what? stop it Anna!
The two approached the table, giggling like mad. Elsa looked at Anna "oh hi Anna!" she said still giggling before bursting into laughter. Anna started to laugh. She couldn't help it. here was her sister normally very calm and regal, bursting into laughter.
Elsa's guest stood there, his laughter gradually fading. He was watching them, with a smirk.
The two girls finally managed to calm down. Elsa returned to her calm demeanor, then turned to the boy and said "Joseph this is Anna, Anna Joseph"
Joseph smile "nice to meet you Anna"
Anna faltered and started blabbing "hiJosephwowyourhotimeanyoursohandsome-shutting up now…."
Joseph might as well have been sunburned he was so red. Elsa facepalmed. Anna was always like this around guys Elsa brought home. It was a wonder how she managed to get a boyfriend. Or how Elsa's boyfriends weren't scared off by such behavior.
Joseph laughed and looked down, as if the table was interesting "no one has told me that before…." He muttered. Elsa and Anna were shocked
"re you serious?" Anna said "your girlfriends should have…" she trailed off
"never had one"
Anna and Elsa felt their mouths drop open. Joseph never had a girlfriend? He seemed like such a nice guy.
"I was scared to ask any girl out" Joseph said "I never saw myself as a catch"
Elsa stared at her friend. He seemed so sad. Like he was lonely.
"either way it doesn't matter now does it?"
Anna leaped out of her seat and hugged Joseph. Joseph was immediately taken aback by this. He stood there stunned. Elsa felt jealousy boil through her. Anna shouldn't be hugging her boyfriend! It should be her comforting him not Anna. Wait boyfriend….
It was official…. Elsa wanted to date him. She wanted to hold him close and never let go. She had fallen in love with him. She had fallen for his kindness, his willingness to talk about his problems with her. He trusted her.
But Elsa realized joseph would never ask her out. He was scared to. He was oblivious to how good looking he was, that he saw himself as alone…. He didn't deserve a girlfriend.
Anna meanwhile, felt sorry for him. He needed a friend to show him that he was loved.
Anna finally let go of him. Joseph stared at her "thanks…" he said softly, before turning to Elsa. "thank you…" he suddenly grabbed her and hugged her close
Elsa stiffened slightly. Why was he hugging her now? Suddenly she felt him grab one of her hands and slip something into it. without warning, he let go and ran before either she or Anna could say anything.
Elsa stood there shocked. That no good…. Her hand clenched around the item inside. Looking down she was shocked to discover a piece of paper. She unfolded it and her face went red. It was a ticket to see Wicked, the play that was going around the country. There was also a note
I've been thinking about the past few days we've had Elsa. I know that when we met, you were having a bad day. I'm glad I was able to lift your spirits. I wanted to show you that no matter what, there was always something to look forward to. So I want to invite you to come see Wicked with me. If you want to come with me, just let me know. The play is next week, on Saturday.
Your Friend
Joseph
Elsa folded the letter and sighed. Joseph had just asked her out in one of the most aggravating, yet romantic ways possible. Of course she wanted to go see it with him.
Anna noticed the look on her face. "Elsaaaa." She said "what did it say?" she sing songed. She grabbed the letter
"Anna!" Elsa screamed, trying to snatch the letter back. Anna put it out of her reach. She read the letter and grinned
"oh that's so cute!" she squealed "he asked you out"
"Anna!" Elsa grabbed the letter back, stuffing it in her pocket, before heading out of the lunchroom.
She needed time to think out this.
