Perhaps Love at Disney High

Chapter Three

Jasmine didn’t know what it was but Aladdin was so irresistible. Ever since the day he helped her take the muzzle off her mouth, it was as if she was slowly falling for the guy. “Hey, Jasmine,” Aladdin greeted Jasmine with his million-dollar smile.

“Hey, Aladdin,” Jasmine smiled back.

“So uh, I was wondering if you’d uh…you know, maybe wanna grab lunch with me after class?” he asked a bit shyly.

“Of course. I’d love to,” Jasmine replied happily.

“Great! Great, well uh, I’ll see you after class then,” Aladdin said as he went back to his seat. Jasmine smiled and Meg nudged her.

“You and Aladdin, huh?” Meg asked with a smirk. “Shoulda made the guy wait a bit before you said yes.”

“What do you mean?” Jasmine asked.

“You know, let him think you like the chase,” Meg lectured.

“But…I just couldn’t say no,” Jasmine said turning a bit red. When class was over, Jasmine was so into doodling in her notes that she didn’t even realize the bells were ringing. Aladdin came towards Jasmine and put his arms around her shoulders saying, “Class is over, princess.”

“O-oh,” Jasmine smiled. She quickly gathered her belongings and left with Aladdin to the Grand Hall to eat.

Mulan awoke at the crack of dawn and she went up on the mountains to train by herself. Ever since the death of her father, Mulan started to train herself as a soldier. But she was quickly discouraged by her mother since being a soldier wasn’t what girls did.

Phil woke up with a loud yawn hearing Mulan’s voice. He bustled through the trees and looked to see her training all by herself. He saw such passion and dedication the way Mulan trained. Phil could tell Mulan truly wanted to become a great soldier, and Phil was the man who had the knowledge to help.

But Phil didn’t want another let down, like the many numbers of people he helped become soldiers or heroes. They had all turned their back on Phil once they gained popularity, which left Phil so hurt that he promised to never train anyone to become a soldier or hero ever again.

Phil walked away from Mulan and after he was prepared to head to Disney High to teach gym class, he saw Mulan still training. “Wow, this kid is dedicated,” Phil said to himself. He heard the bells toll and that’s when Mulan stopped. She quickly put her bag over her shoulder and was about to run when she spotted Phil. “Mr. Phil?” Mulan asked as she noticed her centaur gym teacher.

“O-oh, hey there, kiddo,” Phil said embarrassed he got caught. “So uh, training there, I see.”

“Yes,” Mulan replied. “But what brings you here in the mountains?”

“Oh, I uh live here. So…why are you training so early in the morning? For a competition or something?”

“No, just because I wanted to. Well I should get going or I’ll be late to class,” Mulan said running back to the castle.

“Hey kid wait!” Phil shouted. Mulan looked behind at Phil. “I could, uh, train ya if ya want.”

“Really?” Mulan asked with a smile. “Can you train me to be a soldier?”

“Sure, why not, huh? Just…don’t let me down, kid.”

Meg was walking alone through the courtyard since she was held back in class for a while for dozing off in Speech and Debate with Madame Mim. Meg headed towards the Grand Hall for lunch when she saw a Frisbee flying her way. She caught it and heard someone shout, “Hey, over here!” Meg looked to see Prince Eric running to her with a smile on his face. “Thanks for catching it.”
