Ok, so I don't know if it is bad to advertise other stories on here buuuut...
Please read Storis (written by yours truly)! It's in Little Red Riding Hood, but technically is a crossover of all fairy tales. At least, all fairy tales I can think of...
Disclaimer: Don't you get it already? I don't own the Sisters Grimm series!
On a happier note, one with the story!
Chapter 5
Sabrina turned off the shower and got dressed in a comfortable sweater with jeans and, last minute, slid on some slippers. She sat upstairs reading for about twenty minutes, glad that the house was peaceful. The she realized that this house was never peaceful. At least, it was never peaceful if everyone was okay.
She walked downstairs, apprehension adding to nerves. When she finally got a look at the living room, she was relieved. Then she became worried.
Puck was lazily sitting on the couch, staring off into space.
"Hi." She looked down, shocking him out of his stupor.
"Hi." He nodded up to her, a slight acknowledgement.
She sensed his gloom immediately, so squeezed his arm gently. After all, he was her best friend (aside from Bella, of course).
"You OK?"
"Uhh..." He stuttered, "Yeah, yeah. I'm all good."
She reached over him and slowly revealed a hidden treasure: The TV remote.
"You are a goddess." Puck said, cheering up. Granny Relda had hidden the TV remote from Puck and his obsession with the "magic screen". Sabrina had just pulled it out from between the couch cushions and handed it to him, praying she didn't create a monster. Luckily, he just flipped a few switches and settled on a channel playing some adventure movie. Sabrina finally sat down next to him.
"Why did you give me the remote?" He asked her, and she cocked her head to the left, thinking.
"You looked like you needed it." She finally said decisively.
"Thanks." Puck grinned. "Did I ever mention that you are probably my best friend?"
She punched him playfully. "And you're basically my annoying little brother. We can call you Basil the Third."
"Got it." He laughed.
The two were watching for a good hour before Elvis, who had been earlier neglected, started barking. Puck and Sabrina looked at each other, and stuffed the remote back into the pillow cushion (after turning off the TV), and ran upstairs to their respective rooms.
When Sabrina heard her family walk in, she walked downstairs, winking at Puck as he traipsed down after her.
"How was lunch?" She asked.
"Cooltastic!" Daphne shouted, and Red covered her ears.
"Cooltastic?"
"Cool and fantastic."
"Of course."
Daphne raised an eyebrow. "Was that sarcasm?"
"Maybe!" Sabrina laughed.
The next day was Monday.
School.
That morning, Sabrina made it to the bus on time and ate an actual breakfast - not her regular rushed granola bars. The bus was loud as usual, leaving her slightly disoriented and coughing from exhaust. Inside school was even worse.
The halls were full of kids running, shouting, throwing balls of paper, paper airplanes, and pretty much any other activity Sabrina found highly annoying. Thankfully, she made it to class before the bell rang and without getting trampled. Bella was not so lucky. She came in and lunged for Sabrina's desk.
"Safety!" She gasped, panting from her "run" through the halls.
"Yeah, I saw outside. Do you know what's going on?"
"Apparently there's a new kid."
"Everafter?" Sabrina whispered.
"I think so." Bella shook her head, eyes full of dread.
Just as she stood up, a boy stepped into the room, drawing glances from all over.
Bella gave a little hop, then leaned back over Sabrina's desk. "Hoooot-ieeeee!" She squealed, and jumped again.
Here we go. For, like, the two millionth time! Sabrina thought, already dreading Bella's long introduction of herself and her friend Sabrina. Of course, "her friend Sabrina" would just wave hi, then say something along the lines of:
"Oh... look at the time! I have... stuff to do! See ya!" And sprint off, leaving Bella to flirt. And Bella, she flirted. The poor guy probably had never seen it coming. Then again, Sabrina sure hadn't seen what happened next coming.
"Class!" Her teacher announced, "This is Jack."
Nope, Sabrina though, not an Everafter!
But then the teacher continued:
"Jack Hill."
Wait a minute...
"Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water.
Jack fell down and broke his crown,
And Jill came tumbling after.
Up Jack got and home did trot
As fast as he could caper;
And went to bed to mend his head
With vinegar and brown paper.
Jill came in and she did grin
To see his paper plaster;
Mother vexed did whip her next
For causing Jack's disaster.
Now Jack did laugh and Jill did cry
But her tears did soon abate;
Then Jill did say that they should play
At see-saw across the gate."
No. No, no, no!
Sabrina shared a look with Puck and Bella. The new kid sure was an Everafter!
