Never There ~ A Jelsa Story~

Two; Bad

I felt guilty as Jack was shouted at and sent out in disgrace. But then I remembered something - that boy was a stupid, dumb and wild boy. Despite the fact that he was clever, he just didn't belong at my school. One of my best friends,  Belle Deville looked at me suspiciously and mouthed, 'Did he actually copy you?'

I shook my head, knowing I could trust Belle. We had been friends since we began primary school as small children. She looked angry. "Miss! Elsa's lying!" I stared at her in a rage. I stood up and stormed out of the classroom. 

"Elsa! Come back at ONCE!" I ignored her. I didn't care if I was suspended. Or even expelled. I hate this school anyway. I have no friends anymore; Belle cheated on me.

**************************

I sat in detention, writing 500 lines. 

I must not lie.

I must not lie.

I must not lie.

I must not lie.

I must not lie.

I must not lie.

I must not lie.

I must not lie.

I must not lie.

I must not lie.

"Miss Goldenburg," Miss Menece said, "You are not much of a golden pupil. You copy someone's work, then blame it on them, then don't own up!" I sighed in shame. I couldn't help being in awe of my teacher, although she was very strict. "I'm not going to expel you." I smiled weakly. I didn't want to really leave the school...  "And I will not suspend you." I looked her, unbelievingly.

"What's my punishment?" I asked.

"You've never been so bad in your life," she replied, "And I think it must be something different than just you copying. I'm sure I can help if you tell me."

"I don't... I don't know..." I lied, ashamed that it was because I hated Jack.

"Now we both know that's not true."

I sighed again, "I hate Jack Frost. He's such a weird idiot."

"That is the total reason?" I put my hand to my head. I tried to squeeze out fake tears, like I was extremely upset. 

As a few fake ones dripped off my face, I began to speak, "Anna isn't speaking to me anymore. Ever since..." I stared in dread at myself. I couldn't control the tears - I really was crying. "Anna barely even notices me," I sobbed sadly, "I wish she would just say hello or something... but she just shrugs..." By now I was whimpering so hysterically that Miss Menece put her arm around me. 

"It'll be OK, Elsa dear. Believe in your sister. She loves you so much, really." I hugged her and she completely forget about my punishment.

"Thanks, Miss," I smiled.
