Elsa
I open my eyes and my neck is killing me. I crack and it helps, I scratch my eyes and look out the window. I see land and its close. I see the worlds famous tower and can't help myself but to jump. "We're in Paris!" I shout waking up half of the plane.
"Elsa please" the instructor next to me says. I sit back down feeling a little embarrassed. I take a sip of my water and the feeling quickly comes. I scoot next to my instructors ear. "I need to pee" I whisper. He opens his eyes and turns his head to me.
"You have 5 minutes before we have to put our seatbelts back on" I smile and scoot past him to the aisle. As I walk to the front of the plane and the more I walk the more I need to go. I speed walk over and noticed that it's occupied. I knock on the door. "Just a minute" I hear a deep familiar voice say. My eyes widen. I look back to where Jack was sitting and notice the seat empty. Crap! I spot one of the snack carts and hide behind it. Please don't see me, please don't see me.
"Can I help you?" A flight attendant asks looking down on me.
"I, uh- anymore of those um, peanuts?"
"No" she says sounding annoyed. I awkwardly stand up and I'm bumped from behind. I quickly turn around and meet eye to eye with Jack. Our faces literally inches apart because of the tight space. I try to say something but nothing comes out. I notice his eyes go down to my lips then back to my eyes. He nods before walking back to aisle heading towards his seat. "Are you going to the bathroom or not?" The flight attendant says.
"I can hold it" I say and walk back to my seat. "Stupid, stupid, stupid!" I say to myself hitting my head.
"Still trying to sleep" my instructor says.
"Sorry" I say.
"Ladies and gentlemen welcome to Paris, France. Please fasten your seat belts as we prepare to land" I hear the flight attendant say through the speakers.
"There's no point in sleeping now" he says sitting up.

"Wow!" My roommate says looking at our room. It's big, there're two beds. She walks over and jumps on the big one. "Dibs!" She shouts. I walk over to the other bed and put my things down. "For a rich kid you sure pack light" she says.
"Oh, yeah" I say. I forgot most of my things at home. I barely got ready in time.
"I'm Tooth" she smiles. I walk over and shake her hand.
"Elsa" I say. Up close I now realized that this girl has purple eyes. "I'm sorry, what's up with your eyes?"
"Please don't judge" she says. "People already judge because of my colorful streaks and-"
"No, no, no, no" I say quickly. "They're awesome" I sit next to her on the bed.
"You really think so?" I nod and she gives me a wide smile. "Well, my hair I just got it died and my eyes got died on accident"
"Accident?"
"Yup, they just turned this color after I scratch my eyes while dying this purple streak" she says taking one of the purple streaks from her blonde hair.
"And you see alright?" She nods.
"That's crazy"
"Yep"
"So why purple, green, and pink?" I ask gesturing towards her streaks.
"Fave colors, also yellow but my hair is blonde so that's covered. What about you? Did you bleach your hair?" I reach back and grab the tip of my ponytail.
"Nah, I got it from my aunt. My cousins hair is also blonde, well used to be. We both got it from my aunt but she passed away when we were 2"
"Well I love it" she smiles. I like her, she's nice, friendly, glad I got her as my roommate. "I think we're lining up for dinner" she says. I look out the window and see people lined up in front of our bus.
"Let's go then" I say. We get on the bus and I realized that there's only a few seats open for tooth and I to sit together. We pick a random one in the front and sit next to each other. She took the window seat and I took the aisle. I notice Jack getting on the bus but pretend like I don't see him. He walks over and sits on the seat across from me on the aisle. I look at him and he looks at me. We stay like that for while even after the bus begins to move.
"Omg Els" Tooth says grabbing my attention. She was going to show me a picture on her phone but noticed what I was looking at. "Crush on the teacher?" She whispers.
"He's my age" I say. "And I don't have a crush"
"Hubba, Hubba Can I get a slice?" She jokes around while starring for at Jack.
"Excuse me?" He asks leaning towards us.
"I said-"
"Where are we eating?" I ask.
He just stares at me. I turn back to look at tooth.
"It's a surprise" I tell her as if she asked. She looked at me with a confused look. "I'll explain later" I say whisper to her and she nods.
"Hey Els?" I hum in response. "His hair is white" she says. "You know how many colors I can dye it?" I just look at her and then back at Jack who's showing something to a student.
"As much as I love colorful hair, I'd rather keep it white. It's who he is, and it brings out his dark eyes" I smile and look at her. Tooth stares at me smirking. "What?"
"You likey, likey " she said in a deep tone.
"I don't" I say. "I'm just-"
"Chill Els, I was kidding. I know you and Kristoff are engaged"
"Does everybody know about it?" I ask and groan smashing my head on the seat in front of ours.
"Most people" she says. The bus pulls over and we arrive at the restaurant.

We get off the bus and head back inside the hotel. "Elsa" my instructor Bunnymund says walking up me.
"Yes?"
"You've come here before haven't you?" I slowly nod. "You know about this program already"
"Please let me stay, I'll-"
"No, no, no, no I'm asking if you can help us" I look at him confused. "One of our instructors wife was giving birth so he rushed back to America"
"What are you-"
"Please sub in for him. We won't be able to pay you because of his extra plane ticket but-"
"Don't worry, I'll do it" I say. He smiles.
"Thank you thank you" he says.
"So I start tomorrow?"
"Yes" he reaches in his pocket and takes out a card, keys and an ID card and hands it to me. "Your new room is 626"

"Who's going to be my new roommate?" Tooth asks helping me carry my luggage to the elevator.
"I think you got that room for yourself" I say pressing the button.
"Yes!" She fist pumps the air. "Sorry, I like you and all but that room is huge and all mine" she smiles as we enter the elevator. I press the button and we start heading up. "So do you have a room for yourself?"
"Kind of, I get my own room but there's a door that connects the room next to mine" I say as we hop off the elevator.
"So who's room are you connected to?"
"I don't know" I say and open the door. The room was smaller than the other one but it was still a good size.
"King size bed!" Tooth shouts and runs up to it. She jumps on and laughs.
"Tooth its almost 12 and we need to be up by-" someone knocks on the door. I walk over and open it and Jack appears.
"I-I" he looks past me and sees my luggage.
"You're the new instructor?" He asks and I nod. "Be quiet please" he says and finally looks down on me. He walks out and I go out on the hall he walks to the door next to mine. He's my roommate? I don't know whether to be happy or not. He opens it and looks at me and I swear that for just .2 seconds he was giving me his smirk.
Jack
