Hans tried to ignore the constant stares and whispers. It was difficult, though his outside appearance wouldn't show the struggle in the slightest.
He had known the second Aladdin asked him about it that Elsa had started telling everyone about his affair with Meg. However, at the beginning he wasn't too anxious about it. Everyone loved him; he was one of the popular people in the entire student body! Despite his best efforts of just brushing off the issue and acting like nothing had happened, people still doubted his statement, thus causing the constant murmuring behind his back.
Don't ever think he didn't do his fair share of gossip. The minute his juicy, negative talk had started around, he didn't hesitate to spread the rumor bout Elsa and Kristoff. Sure, it didn't take off as well as he'd hoped, but his peers were starting to believe it.
The school was now divided in two. Hans side, or Elsa's side. It was all anyone could ever talk about, and the said fueders hated it. Hans definitely enjoyed the attention, but the negative light on which he was under was a little annoying. Elsa hated everyone talking about her, to her face or whispers away from her. It was like a little fly that simply wouldn't go away, no matter how many times you swat it.
Her friends had of course tried to calm her, and tell her how it wasn't a big deal, but they struggled themselves. Jack and Kristoff had to deal with all the insluts about their cheating lover and 'the other man' scenario. Anna, Rapunzel, and Flynn hated hearing everyone buzzing about their friend. As much as it bugged them, they knew Elsa was feeling ten times worse.
"Elsa?" Anna knocked softly on the open bathroom door. Elsa was in front of the vanity mirror, brushing out her long thick hair. Her face was emotionless and she stated pinning back thin strips.
"Yes?" Elsa responded, never turning her gaze from her reflection.
"Are you doing ok? You know, with all the gossip going around," Anna asked with concern, leaning on the side of the white counter.
"Fine," Elsa replied simply. "Hans got what he deserved."
"Yeah, but that doesn't make things any easier," Anna pointed out.
"I know," Elsa slammed her brush on the tile. "I'm good."
"Elsa," Anna replied, waiting for a real answer.
"Fine. It's hard to hear everyone talking behind my back. It reminds me of middle school. Happy?" Elsa answered.
"I can see how this would be hard for you, but you need to talk about it! We can help you," Anna tried to calm the older girl down.
"It's fine. I can deal. Soon enough, this will all be over. Especially once Hans gets what he deserves." Elsa spoke more to herself than her roommate.
"I know what he did to me was wrong, but you seem really passionate about bringing him down," Anna said.
Elsa's eyes were the size of saucers. Did Anna not know about the robbery? "Um, nothing, really. Did Kristoff ever mention anything...crmimnal?" She tried wording her word choice.
"He told me about the robbery. And the framing," Anna explained. "But what does that have to do with anything?"
"Anna, I'm about to tell you something, and you have to promise not to freak out," Elsa looked at the younger girl with intense eyes. Anna nodded and gave er an equally passionate gaze. "Hans was the one who framed Kristoff," she explained slowly.
Anna widened her orbs and stepped back. "What?"
"Hans was the robber at the jewelry store," Elsa spoke slow so the stunned girl would hear every word. "He pulled Kristoff into his plan and ended up escaping. And the police found Kristoff first, and he was blamed for the crime."
"Why didn't Kristoff fight back?" Anna asked. She knew he was a gigantic teddy bear, but of course he would have fought off false criminal charges.
"He tried. But no one found any evidence of him being there, nad he had a concrete alibi," Elsa responded.
"What was it?"
"He was hanging out with Jafar at the dorms."
"Well that alibi was obviously a lie!" Anna was getting angry. "Everyone knows Jafar's the slimiest fibber around!"
"We know, but the police didn't see it. Because he had a witness, no one could testify Kristoff's claims of innocence."
"Well there's gotta be something we could do! I want justice!" Anna exclaimed, stomping her foot for dramatic emphasis.
"Whoa, calm down Super Woman," Elsa walked towards the younger girl. "Kristoff's fine with this. And there's nothing we can do now."
"I'm sure we can think of something."

The forest was pleasantly noisy as Anna and Kristoff walked hand in hand down the woodland path. They walked in silence, relishing in the calming sounds consisting of birds chirping and leaves brushing softly on the branches.
Anna looked down the bulk glued to Kristoff's ankle, covered by his baggy sweatpant. She bit her lip, indecisive about saying what she felt was needed to be spoken. "Kristoff?" she scissored the natural bliss.
"Hmm?"
"I- Never mind," Anna shook her head and looked away from Kristoff's impending gaze.
"What?" Kristoff asked, nudging her shoulder playfully.
"It's nothing," Anna replied, choosing not to tell her boyfriend what was itching her cranium.
"Tell me," Kristoff demanded good naturedly.
"It's really not a big de- oof!" Anna's statement was interrupted when Kristoff stopped them abruptly and kissed her hard.
Pulling away moments later, Kristoff went back to holding her hand and acting his spontaneous show of affection was nothing but a daydream.
"Fine, I'll tell you," Anna sighed in defeat. "I want to prove too everyone that you're innocent."
"What?" Kristoff asked in surprise. He never thought that was what Anna was hiding from him. "I already tried, and that was years ago. No one's going to care now."
"I know it was Hans who framed you; Elsa told me," Anna said. "And I think I know a way to finally give him what he deserves!"
"Anna, we can't do that," Kristoff sighed in protest. "I think you already made him go through enough with the whole cheating thing."
"But that's my way of revenge, not yours! He deserves jail time!" Anna stopped them and released her hand from his.
"No one's going to care about it now, Anna," Kristoff responded. "It's best if we just leave it alone."
"No! I refuse to let you suffer with that horrible house arrest thing!" Anna pointed at the ankle monitor plastered to his lower leg.
"It doesn't matter Anna!" Kristoff repeated, his voice getting louder and angrier.
Anna cowered in fear. "Please, Kristoff, I need to help you. It hurts me to see you like this!"
"And you think it doesn't hurt me?" Kristoff yelled. "Do you think I haven't tried to get back at Hans? It won't work!"
"Yes it will!" Anna's optimism peeked through.
"Anna, it won't," Kristoff ran his hand through his hair, trying to calm himself down. "He comes from old money. High up in society. Even when he was accused, they never went back on one of their own."
"But what if we have solid evidence? I think it could work!" Anna declared firmly.
"It didn't. And it won't. Just give it up, Anna," Kristoff said dejectedly, turning his back to the spunky girl and walking away.
"Kristoff, come back here! I just want to help you!" Anna yelled. However, the stately body never turned around.
She growled loudly in frustration and sat square on the dirt. Why couldn't Kristoff understand she only wanted to help? She knew if she could get a video, or tape, something could be done. Something had to be done. And she was going to do it.
With or without his help or consent.
