Another year in Aren Academy
Normal POV
Today was a special day, it was the first day of school. Ariel was waiting for her friend to arrive in front of the school, this is their sophomore year so she was excited. Fortunately she didn't have to wait too long because soon enough, a black Escalade pulled into the parking lot. She watched as the driver went to open the door of the backseat and beamed when she saw Anna climbing out.
'' Anna!''
Anna turned her head toward the voice and she grinned when she spotted a girl with bright red hair running towards her. She quickly waved a goodbye at the driver before he pulled the car out of the parking lot and opened her arms in anticipation in time to greet her friend into a big crushing hug. The girls squealed happily and started laughing madly.
'' I missed you Red ''
'' Missed you too Arendelle ''
'' Oh my God, you look awesome!'' Anna pulled away, cupping Ariel's shoulders to have a better look at her outfit. She was wearing a light blue summer dress with a pair of white flat.
'' I return the compliment '' Ariel said taking a step back to look at her friend. Anna was wearing a black denim short with a neon green loose shirt that had a black heart printed on the front and also had a black pair of vans on her feet with neon green lace. '' I love your shoes. ''
'' yeah I know right? ''
'' Still with the pigtail braids huh? '' Ariel tugged at one oh Anna's braids.
'' What else, it's my signature '' Anna said sheepishly, fixing her white holllister tote bag on her shoulder '' did you get a tan?''
'' yes, daddy took the familly to the caribeen for the summer, I went to the beach every single day. The sun is heavenly there ''
'' Sounds fun ''
'' Here, I got them for you. '' Ariel handed her a small bag. Anna looked inside and pulled out a little mermaid on a key ring. '' I got the same mermaid on my key ring too. ''
'' Oh thank you Ariel, I love it. '' She hugged her friend again before pulling a small bag out of her bag for her friend too. '' For you. '' she grins.
'' Oh you got me something too?''
'' Yep, there was this nice shop in France and I just thought about you. ''Ariel squealed when a new pink Iphone case with ' Je vois la vie en rose ' written in black letters.
'' It means ' I see life in pink '. '' She translated the small sentence. '' I knew you had this thing with France and french people. Pink is your favorite colour right? ''
'' Yes. '' Ariel nodded quickly. '' I love it! I think I'll change my Iphone case now. ''
'' Suit yourself. ''
Ariel wasted no time to switch her case before kissing Anna's cheek. '' Oh my God, it looks great! ''
'' It does. '' Anna agreed.
'' So, you went to France for the summer? I always wanted to go there, how was it? ''
'' France was fine, we traveled a lot, mostly for business '' Anna said slumping her shoulders '' My dad wanted to introduce Elsa to the many corporations he works with since she will start to run the company with him after graduation at the end of the year. ''
Anna's parents were the owners of the famous Arendelle worldwild and they own more than a hundred five stars hotels and palaces which is why they were also known as one of the wealthiest family in the world but Anna wasn't really interested about their crazy wealth. She only wishe done thing and it was definitly not money.
'' Why does it sound like it was boring? ''
'' It was all about meetings and complicated stuff. Oh and I also got lost in India and almost got arrested because I didn't take off my shoes in a temple. ''
'' Meh, seriously? '' Ariel asked incredioulously.
'' Yeah and china was just horrible. I got lost a in the big crowd more than three times, thanks to the fit I threw when someone tried to rob me, my mom heard my screams. After only six hours in town, she considered having me on a leash and I had to wear a bracelet with a GPS. ''
'' You're kidding right? ''
'' I got stuck with two bodyguards, it was horrible. ''
'' Come on, it couldn't be that bad. You at least did some shopping. ''
'' Yeah next time you go to china, try to do shopping in a shop where no one speaks english at all, then you can tell me about it.''
'' Could things get worse? ''
'' Did I forget to mention that I got kicked out of a hotel in Rome? ''
'' Wouldn't be the first time. '' Ariel shrugged..
Anna scoffed.
'' It was the freaking Arendelle Palace!They thought I was a thief or something like that, can you believe it? They didn't know I was Anna Arendelle. ''
'' What happened next? ''
'' My dad wasn't happy that a man tried to drag his princess out of her own hotel. '' Anna smiled. '' He's such a daddy bear and while my mom was close to firing the man, I was Elsa's intertainment. She kept making fun of me the whole summer. ''
'' Well, talking about her.'' Ariel nodded towards the parking lot a few feet away from them where a black Porsche Cayenne pulled in.
'' Looks like Elsa arrived '' Anna sighed.
'' Is it cold suddenly? ''
'' Haha really funny. ''
'' I was kidding duh! '' Ariel rolled her eyes. '' How comes that she can look formal and hot at the same time, I'm jealous '' she gasped when Elsa stepped out of her car.
The twenty-three years old young woman looks gorgeous dressed in a white blouse that was neatly tucked into a black tight high waist skirt that showed her perfect legs and a black pair of flats. Her one side braid hang loosely over her left shoulder.
'' Yeah terribly hot for a Snow queen '' Anna mumbled.
'' Ironic '' Ariel snorted.
Elsa looked briefly in their direction but her facial features were emotionless when she met Anna's eyes. It was as if they didn't even know each other like strangers. Anna saw someone else coming into the parking lot and she couldn't help but roll her eyes at Hans. So did Ariel.
'' Ugh sideburns alert '' The girl wrinkled her nose in disgust, just like Anna she didn't like Hans.
'' C'mon, let's go ''
'' yeah ''
Anna and Ariel arrived in the main hallway of the school and the front entrance. Everyone waved 'hi' to the was pretty popular, not just because she was Anna Arendelle and her familly was insanely rich but people like her for her friendly attitude and bubbly nature. She was just a sweetheart. Of course not to mention that the Snow queen of the campus was her big sister.
'' Ah it feels kinda good to be back '' Ariel sighed contently, winkink at a random boy who was eating her with his eyes as they found their lockers. They were glad they had the te same lockers as last year.
'' Yeah, I'll miss sleeping in late though. ''
'' You're such a sleeping beauty ''
'' You must be mistaking me for Aurora '' Anna chuckled. Aurora was one of her friends in the cheerleading squad and that girl was just always sleepy.
'' still '
'' Wait until you see my giant mane in the morning and we'll see if I'm still a sleeping beauty ''
'' Take it as sarcasm then. Outch! '' Ariel pouted when Anna punched her arm.
'' Hey wath that hottie '' Two girls that were walking down the hall squealed.
'' Is that Sven? '' Ariel said looking passed her friend. Anna turned to see a rather handsome brown haired boy walking towards them with his oval ball in one hand.
'' Hi ladies '' He stopped by the girls and leaned against Ariel's locker.
'' Hi Sven'' They both replied and gave him a hug.
'' whoa, I'm happy to see you too '' He laughed as they released him '' Miss me that much?''
'' I was practicing '' Ariel shrugs.
'' Probably for Eric ''
'' What? ''
'' Anna! '' Ariel gasped slapping Anna's arm while Sven raised a brow and looked questioningly at the two '' Don't listen to her, she missed her cup of coffee ''
'' Yeah right, I don't drink coffee '' Anna rolled her eyes.
'' Hush you ''
'' Wait Eric as my buddy?''
'' Nope ''
'' Yes ''
Sven couln't hold his laughter as Ariel once again slapped Anna's arm, making her pout and stuck her tongue at the red haired girl. He shook his head... Girls.
The boy finally cleared his throat '' So, who do you girls have in homeroom class? ''
'' We didn't pick our schedule yet '' Anna shrugs.
'' Let's go then '' Ariel said hooking her arm with Sven's right arm while Anna latched onto his left and they walked towards the front office. As they disappeared down the hallway, you could hear them talking about how they hope not to have Ms. Gothel as their homeroom teacher.
At lunch, Anna was happy to see her friend. Ariel was sitting in the outdoor court. The air was cool and they didn't waste their time sharing conversations about their morning. While Anna was satisfied with most of her teachers so far, it wasn't the case for everyone.
'' Ugh, I have Ms. Gothel '' Ariel groaned stabbing her steak forcefully.
'' Oh I'm sure she isn't that bad ''
The girl snorted '' You obviously never had her as a teacher ''
'' My bad. ''
'' Mind if we join you '' The girls were interrupted by Sven, Eric and another boy who stood there holding their tray.
'' Sure '' Came the imediate response from Ariel. Anna chuckled at the red head, knowing about her crush on Eric and she believes that the boy has a thing for Ariel too since he was blushing madly.
Eric sat next to Ariel, across from them, Kristoff was on Anna's left and the other boy sat on her right. Anna didn't know him, so she decided to make the conversation.
'' Hey, you're new here? I've never seen you around '' she asked curiously.
'' Yeah I'm Oliver but you can call me Olaf, everyone does '' he said shyly.
'' Nice to meet you Olaf '' She smiled '' I'm Anna. ''
'' Anna? As the Arendelle Anna? ''
'' Yup. ''
'' Wow! Your family is- ''
'' I know, I know... let's not make a big deal okay? I'm just Anna and the red head over there is Ariel '' she introduced her friend.
'' you can call me Red '' Ariel said before she added '' or whatever you want as long as it's not fish tail. ''
Olaf made a face, obviously confused. Why fish tail? Apparently Ariel didn't miss the look on his face because she added '' I'm on the swimming team, so figure. '' she smirked.
'' Oh ''
'' So Olaf, are you a freshmen?'' Anna asked.
'' Sophomore, I got transfered from Dalton High, it's a school in New York ''
'' Cool, I love New York '' Anna squealed, eyes sparkling at the mention of the Big Apple. '' Sometimes my mom and I take the family private jet to go shopping there ''
'' You're kidding right? '' Olaf gasped.
'' No joke, man '' Sven shook his head.
'' What brought you here in Cali anyway? '' Eric asked, joining the conversation.
'' My dad is a lawayer and we had to move because of his job. We were looking for a nice school and Aren high was at the top of the list ''
'' You bet. '' Anna smirked.
'' Welcome to the club then '' Eric said.
Olaf smiled at his new friends, they were really nice.
'' Your family own the school right? '' He asked Anna.
'' Kinda. ''
'' Does that mean you can do whatever you want? Like skipping or being late for class? ''
'' You're kidding? My mom will be the first to know if I'm skipping class, not because I am Anna Arendelle means I can fool around. Quite the opposite. ''
'' Oh. ''
As they continued with the talking, a brunette girl and a blonde girl stopped by.
'' Hey Meg, hi Cinder '' Anna greets them.
'' Hi Anna '' Meg smiled as Cinderella waved happily and they nodded at the girls were both junior. Megara was the captain of the cheerleading squad Anna was in and Cinderella was her right hand. Never one without the other.
'' Wanna sit? ''
'' Thank you but we just came to tell you that coach Reagan said you need to show up at the gym after school ''
'' I thought that practice doesn't start until early next month '' Anna frowned.
'' We're recruiting and we need another good judge with us ''
'' Me? ''
'' Of course you. ''
'' Oh whoa! Okay well, yes I'll be there '' Anna said a bit stunned that their coach chosed her in all of the other cheerleaders for the auditions.
'' Great, don't be late '' Meg winked, before walking away with Cinderella.
'' I thought the squad recruits during summer '' Eric told Anna.
'' Nah, we're not like the football or basketball team '' she shook her head '' talking about practice, hey Ariel. ''
'' Yeah? ''
'' You said you'd quit the swimming team rigtht? ''
'' Uh huh, I'll audition for the show choir. They're really good ''
'' Okay, but why don't you try out in the cheerleading too? ''
'' Dunno, we'll see. The girls in the squad are very... '' Ariel trailed off.
'' Fancy? ''
'' Whiny? '' Both Sven and Eric suggested.
'' I'd rather say, snobby '' Ariel shrugs.
'' Hey I'm none of those things '' Anna pouts.
'' You're kinda whiny though '' Sven said thoughtfully, earning himself a painful kick in the leg from under the table.
'' Ouch! What the hell Anna, it hurts ''
'' And I'm the whiny one? '' she smirked.
'' No offence Anna, nothing against you but some of the cheerleaders are well... S.L.U.T.T.Y I may say. I mean did you see that girl, what was her name? Ludmila or was that surfala? Is that even a name?''
'' Ursula '' Anna grumbled. Ariel deserves credits on that one, Ursula was really a... whatever Ariel called her.
'' Yeah that '' Ariel nods '' And that Snow White girl is like a real bitch to anyone who is not on her friends list which I feel awfully concerned ''
'' She's really cool when you know her. ''
'' Which I don't. ''
'' Fine '' The strawberry blonde girl huffed and crossed her arms. Too much for wanting her best friend with her in her team, ugh! '' what about you Olaf? Did you practice a sport at your old school ''
'' Yes football and I passed the test during the summer '' Olaf said.
'' Yep good wide receiver '' Sven patted his shoulder '' Welcome to the team man ''
'' Thanks guys ''
'' My my, it's Annie and her creepy friends '' A male voice sneared causing the small group to turn towards the owner of the voice.
'' What do you want Hans '' Anna asked annoyed. She was spending a good time with her friends and he had to break their fun now?
The boy shrugged '' I just thought I'd be polite and say hi '' Anna snorted. Hans? Polite? That must be the joke of the year or the most ridiculous thing she's ever heard.
'' I'm suprised to see you without Elsa '' she replied flatly '' Did you lose her sometimes on your way here? ''
'' Feisty aren't we? '' He laughed bitterly and flashed a smirk that Anna would gladly punch off his face if she could '' but no, she just didn't want to waste her time with something as unworthy as saying hi to her little sister. ''
If what he said made Anna upset, she was definitely good at not showing it because she smiled and said '' Well that's not something new ''
'' You must understand her Annie, she had to support you the entire summer. She said she was so happy to get rid of you ''
Olaf frowned, this Hans boy was being mean to his new friend and Anna doesn't look like she wanted to deal with him '' Why don't you leave her alone? ''
Hans scoffed and looked at the boy next to Anna
'' Olaf it's okay '' Anna shook her head, not wanting Hans to have a new target.
'' And who the hell do you think you are weirdo? Do you know who I am? '' Hans glared at him.
'' No and honestly I don't care but unlike you I'm a human being who know how to treat people ''
'' You son of bitch '' Hans growled, bending down to grab Olaf's colar but Sven stepped between the two and pushed him away.
'' Leave my friends and go bother someone your age coward? '' Sven said throught his greeted teeth.
'' What would you do if I don't? Punch me? '' Hans asked in a mocking tone.
'' No, but I will '' Another voice shimmed in. Anna groaned, seeing Kristoff standing behind Hans. Making a scene in the middle of the food court was the last thing she needed.
'' Big bro' to the rescue, pathetic '' Hans rolled his eyes '' Can't defend your sorry ass orphan? ''
Kristoff growled at that and roughtly grabbed Hans's shoulder.
'' Call my brother an orphan again and you're a dead meat Westergard ''
'' Chill Bjorgman, I was only playing with the kids geez '' Hans raised his hands in mocking surrender.
'' Leave ''
'' Fine '' He laughed and smirked at Anna '' You won't always have your friends with you Annie '' He said darkly before walking away through the crowd.
'' Thanks bro' '' Sven told Kristoff.
'' You okay Anna? ''
The girl looked at Olaf and smiled '' I'm fine. I'm used to Hans's cowardness, I'm not new to this. ''
'' He's such a dick '' Ariel huffed.
'' Next time he annoys you, tell me '' Kristoff told her. He knows Anna for a long time now and he really likes te girl, she was like a little sister to him too.
'' Thanks Krist but I can handle him '' She waved him off.
'' I insist ''
Anna only nods but she knew there was no way for her to tell Kristoff anything, she wasn't afraid of Hans. She could handle him for years, she wouldn't stop now.
If she runs to her friends everytime Hans picks on her, that will make her a coward and she didn't want that. She's Anna freaking Arendelle after all.
When she followed the direction Hans walked off, she caught Elsa staring at her. They stared at each other a moment before the blonde broke eye contact and walked away as well.
'' Was that your sister? ''
Anna looked at Olaf and nodded. '' Yeah. ''
'' She looks intimidating. ''
'' That's because she is the Ice Queen. '' Ariel replied.
'' Why do you call her that? ''
'' Because she is as cold as ice. '' Anna answered quietly. Olaf stared at her with confusion and she sighed. '' Long story. ''
The boy didn't try to understand, something tells him that talking about her sister was upsetting Anna. He heard a lot about the Arendelle family and he's seen them a few times in magazines. They all looked happy but were they really?
By what he witnessed, it doesn't look like... Was it a façade?
