Secrets At The Academy (America x Reader)

Something's Wrong

The next day, you woke up to hear Ellie's alarm going off, as usual. You got out of your bed and quietly got dressed. Ellie climbed down her ladder instead of jumping off her bed like normal. She wasn't smiling, in fact her face was blank. You watched as she got her uniform and trudged to the bathroom.

Once she came out, she walked to her trunk and pulled out two notebooks. The smaller one was cream colored and read "MY LIFE IS THE BEST STORY OF ALL" and had a sticker of Ash Ketchum from Pokemon in the corner. The bigger one was blue and had Pikachu, Eevee, and all of the Eevee evolutions. There were some nail polish marks and a yellow ribbon bookmark.

Diandra shot a worried glance at your friend before getting dressed. You headed down the stairs to breakfast, Ellie hanging back in the room. You and Diandra were the first ones there. Ellie didn't show as everyone filed in seemingly just as upset as Ellie was. Elizabeta was the last to show.

"Where's Ellie?" She asked, concerned for her friend. At that moment, Ellie walked down. Her eyes were vacant and red, like she's been crying. Both notebooks were in her arms and her hair was messy. On her shoulder was a brown dog toy. One eye was chewed and the other was gone altogether. It looked old. Ellie said nothing as she walked to the closet and pulled out the letterman jacket. Ellie didn't even eat or wait for you. You and Diandra shared a look before quickly finishing eating and followed after her.

~Timeskip cuz idk what's going on~

It was the end of the day. Ellie had left the dorm a while ago so you and Diandra had decided to talk.

"Have you known Ellie before coming to this school?" You questioned. Diandra nodded.

"Yeah, we were friends on WattPad." Diandra replied looking worriedly at the door.

"Has she ever mentioned anything going on with her life?" You asked.

"Once she told me that her family adopted three boys. I think that they were Link, Mike, and Andrew." (That actually happened, however I changed their names) Diandra told you. "She also occasionally brought up her sisters, Autumn and Melody. Melody is younger and Autumn is older, if I am remembering correctly." She continued.

"Has she ever acted this way before?" You asked.

"Actually, she did. When I first met her in person." Diandra said thoughtfully, thinking back to their meeting.

Flashback Diandra's POV (I'm honored)

It was the day before the first day of school. I was at the dorm that I would be spending 4 years in. The door had a whiteboard that had my name as well as another girl's name on it. It read Elizabeth in that boring block lettering. I walked in and there was a girl sitting on the top bunk bed, 'dangit, I wanted top bunk. Oh well.' I thought to myself.

"Hello!" I called cheerfully. She nodded at me in reply before going back to her phone. My own phone dinged as I got a message via WattPad from my friend, ThroughTheWindow5.

ThroughTheWindow5: I'm at my new school. My roommate just arrived. I smiled at the message. Chuckling a bit at the odd coincidence.

Me: cool! I just came to my room in my new school. What school are you going to? The reply was instantaneous.

ThroughTheWindow5: Hamilton Academy. Where're you going? I nearly squealed. I could finally meet my online friend!

Me: I'm going to Hamilton Academy too! I wish I was rooming with you, but I'm roomed with a girl named Elizabeth. I sent back. My roommate looked up.

"You're MARVELousFangirl?" She asked, or stated? I blinked before I nodded. . . Wait a second!

"ThroughTheWindow5?" I asked confused, what are the odds.(No sarcasm here at all.) She nodded.

"Please don't call me Elizabeth though. I prefer Ellie. Elizabeth's too sophicated for me." She said, hopping off the bed.

Flashback end - Your POV

"Wow. That's really cool." You said after listening to her story.

"Ellie's always been an introverted kuudere, but she's been opening up more recently." Diandra luckily finished as Ellie walked in. "I'm going to bed. Buona notte." She said, getting on her bed. You and Diandra exchanged a glance before going to bed yourselves.
