Chapter Four
Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a great holiday. I wasn't aware that my borders separating the scenes weren't working so now I am putting Scene numbers so it is less confusing. Sorry if there was any confusion. Also sorry to any fans of Belle, Beast/Adam, and Pocahontas for the lack of stories for them I will be focusing my time on them now. I hope you enjoy the next chapter
Scene 1
It was Monday morning, Belle decided to go early she wanted to check to see if the library had this amazing book she read about on the internet. It was exactly the kind of book she loved to read far off places, daring sword fights, and a prince in disguise. She walked into the Library and was surprised to see Adam there, she didn't know him that well but he completely made fun of her for liking to read. She walked passed discreetly trying to see what he was doing but he slammed his book close and glared. She decided to just walk away. She was embarrassed, she should have not been as noisy as she walked out she bumped into someone.
"Hey Belle. Study for the test today?" asked Jasmine in her chipper voice
"Well I can tell someone is feeling better," sounded a pleased Belle
"Why wouldn't I be?"
"I am so nervous for the test I don't think I studied enough," said Belle changing the subject
"Don't worry we'll be fine," smiled Jasmine
Scene 2
"Where have you been stranger," said Ariel as she came up to John locker not realizing he was talking to Pocahontas
"Oh Ariel sorry about not waiting for you this morning I had something to do," said John
"I called you many times this weekend where were you?" asked Ariel
"That is my fault I took him with me on a hike," said Pocahontas as Ariel just realized she was standing there the whole time
"Yeah sorry about that I was meaning to call you back but then I just forgot," said John
"Can I talk to you John," said Ariel grabbing him and gave Pocahontas a smile, "alone."
"Umm but I am kind of the middle of having a conversation with Pocahontas," said John
"I am sure she won't mind," said Ariel turned to Pocahontas," Do you mind?"
"No not at all. I was planning on leaving anyways." Said Pocahontas then she walked away
"So just come out and say it your mad at me?" accused Ariel as john gave her blank look," About the movie and Eric being there. I didn't know he was going to be there and you told me to go with him."
"I don't care if you hang out with that dumb jock," snapped John
"Oh really then why are you ignoring me and using Pocahontas to make me jealous?"
"Has it ever occurred to you that I might have other friends than you and what does it matter to you if I hang out with Pocahontas?" snapped John
"I don't know care who you hang out with," said Ariel
"And I don't care either," retorted John
"Good,"
"Yeah good," said John then the bell rang and they both stormed off.
Scene 3
"I think I failed that test," said Jasmine as they walked out
"I found it really easy," smiled Belle," I guess all that study payed off."
"I should have studied," said Jasmine who was distracted all weekend with her parents.
"Well I invited you to come over and study with me," laughed Belle," Maybe than you would have actually studied."
"Yeah I just had a lot going on at home."
"Are you okay? Still sad about Charles?"
"What why would I be sad about Charles," said Jasmine who forgot about her lie she told," See I am completely fine about it I even forgot about it," said jasmine as she tried to cover up her mistake.
"Okay," said Belle who still thought something wasn't quite right with her friend
Scene 4
It was break and Ariel was trying to avoid John, she made a fool of herself. But he really made her mad. Him and Pocahontas are way to different she couldn't see how they could hang out. And how did they even come to hanging out. Maybe she liked him and she was trying to get him to like her. He would never go for her poor girl. She decided she better go apologize to her for being so rude it was not her fault she liked John.
"Hey Pocahontas I am sorry about earlier," said Ariel
"Oh it is not big deal," replied Pocahontas
"So you and John? When did that happen? I am surprised he never told me, he tells me everything," said Ariel
"We just went on a hike. It is not big deal," persuaded Pocahontas
"If you say so, but if you liked him I totally wouldn't mind," stated Ariel
"No I don't plus he likes someone else," blurted Pocahontas
"What?" snapped Ariel," he never told me that?"
"Oh look the bell just rang. Better be off," said Pocahontas as she walked away
"I didn't hear the bell," muttered Ariel
Scene 5
Belle forgot her English text book in her locker. So she had to go back to her locker and by the time she got to class. The seat next to Ariel was already taken. Ariel looked at her with a sorry look then Belle looked around the class and the only seat was next to Adam. Great thought Belle of all days this has to happen today. She prayed all class they wouldn't have to do a discussion with their partners. There was fifteen minutes left and Mrs. Potikins turned to the class and said," Now discuss your opinion on the character of Heathclif."
"I think he is missed understood," said Belle and Adam just glared at her," He only acts that way because nobody gives him a chance. They just judge him before they get to know him."
"So why were you looking at what I was doing in the Library in the morning. Don't you understand privacy." Said Adam
"I wasn't looking I just happened to glance over in your direction," stated Belle
"Sure you were," snorted Adam
"What is that supposed to mean?" asked an offended Belle
"Can't you just mind your own business?"
"Fine I will," snapped Belle who was so happy to hear the bell ring
Scene 6
The bell rang and Jasmine tried to get out of wood work as fast as she could. She had had enough of learning and just wanted to go eat. She got to her locker and heard footsteps coming from behind her.
"How are you feeling today?" asked Aladdin
"Where did you come from? I swear you were just in the class room," said Jasmine trying to avoid his question
"I followed you," blurted Aladdin," I mean I wanted to see how you were feeling?"
"Why didn't you just ask in class a few minutes ago?"
"I don't know I thought maybe you wanted to talk some more. We could go for a walk?" asked Aladdin
"I am fine! I was really just not myself that night I normally don't blurt out my problems to a guy I don't really know," said a embarrassed Jasmine
"I didn't mind and I am here anytime if you want to talk about it some more," said Aladdin
"Thanks your sweet," blushed Jasmine
"We don't have to talk we could just go for a walk," pleaded a hopeful Aladdin. Jasmine smiled back at him and they walked outside together.
Scene 7
"I am sorry," said Ariel as John closed his locker," I come bearing gifts," smiled Ariel who handed him some fries. He smiled back at her and took them," I have no right to tell you who to hang out with? I was over reacting. I was afraid you were mad at me."
"Well I kind of was," admitted John," But I can never stay mad at you for long."
"So Pocahontas told me you liked someone? Who is the lucky girl," asked Ariel
"Oh its nothing. She must have gotten confused I just said I thought Belle was pretty," lied John
"She is also really nice I think you two would be good together," replied Ariel who was trying to hide her disappointment
"Umm yeah I guess," said John
Scene 8
"The weather has been pretty good for October," said Jasmine who was trying to break the awkward silence
"I wouldn't know. My family was living in Australia last year," replied Aladdin
"You lived in Australia?"
"Yes my family moves around a lot. I am only fifteen and I have lived in thirteen different places," said Aladdin
"You're lucky you have seen things and been places. I have never left here. Sometimes I feel so trapped and I just want to run away and see the world," said Jasmine with all this passion in her voice
"At least you have been able to build relationships and keep them," said a sad Aladdin
"Yeah that must be hard."
"It is but I have my brother, he is like my best friend."
"Not to be rude but you don't look like brother at all," stated Jasmine
"I know," laughed Aladdin," I am adopted."
"Oh," said Jasmine who didn't know what to say to that
"It's okay I have a better life because of that," said Aladdin, "Though I have always wondered who my parents are."
"Maybe you'll meet them someday," said Jasmine then her voice got quieter," Plus look on the bright side your parents chose you. And when they get a new job they don't leave you they take you with them. They obviously really love you."
"Hey I am sure your mother loves you, she probably didn't want to take you out of your life," said Aladdin sincerely as he put his arm on her shoulder
"If she really did love me she would have chose her family over her job. Obviously I am not good enough of a daughter to make her stay," cried Jasmine
"No don't ever think that your perfect," said Aladdin
Scene 9
"I wonder where Jasmine is?" asked Belle who seemed really concerned
"Isn't Belle so sweet John," said Ariel
"Yeah," said an embarrassed John who knew what she was doing
"She has been feeling so down lately. I think I will go find her," said Belle, ignoring Ariel's comment, as she got up and walked off
"John told me," said Ariel to Pocahontas, "Were best friends we don't keep secrets for long."
"Told you what?" asked Pocahontas
"That he likes Belle," whispered Ariel
"I didn't say I liked her I said she was pretty. Right Pocahontas?" said John
"Right," said Pocahontas as she gave John a look.
"Well if you did like her you guys would be cute," said Ariel she looked up and saw Eric beckoning her to come," I forgot something in my locker. I'll see you guys later."
"Why don't you just tell her the truth? She might like you she got jealous that we were talking earlier," said Pocahontas
"It would ruin our friendship and she was just mad I didn't call her back," said John
"Well you won't know until you ask," replied Pocahontas
"I didn't know her locker was over there," said John as he pointed towards Ariel who was talking to Eric
"What does that have to do with anything?" asked Pocahontas
"She likes him not me it is obvious."
"Well then she is blind," blurted out Pocahontas
"What?"
"You are nice guy John," said Pocahontas
"And girls don't like nice guys."
"Yes they do," muttered Pocahontas
Scene 10
"Where were you?" said Belle who was looking all around the school for Jasmine
"Around," said Jasmine
"I looked everywhere," said Belle
"I guess we just kept missing each other."
"But you always sit with us at lunch. Are you still upset?"
"No I was just finishing up my word work project I didn't realize it would take so long," lied Jasmine
" You know Jasmine I can tell something is wrong but I can't help you unless you tell me. So you have to stop lying to me," said Belle
"I told you ," said Jasmine but Belle cut her off
"No I am pretty sure that was a lie. I know you never really liked him and I know you don't let guys upset you," said Belle
"There is nothing to tell," said Jasmine
"You know what talk to me when you decide to stop lying to my face ," said Belle and she started to walk away but then she turned around, " And when you do I'll listen to you and try and help because that is what friends do."
