11. Write a chapter in which "Princess Week" occurs. (Princess Week is when you watch a Disney Princess movie every night of the week)

 “Hades: I can’t believe you’re getting so worked up about some guy.

  Megara: This one’s different. He’s honest, and he’s sweet. He’d never do anything to hurt me.

 Hades: ...He’s a guy!”

 -Hercules.

“Don’t forget we’re watching our Princess Week film today after school at my place.” Ellie told Paige as they walked through the hallways on Friday, making their way to third period.

She and Paige had had this thing going for as long as they could remember, watching a princess movie every day of the week. Since she was the only one who was up to spending her entire weeknights watching Disney movies with a hyper Ellie and singing along to all the songs.

They had planned to wait until today to watch their favorite movie The Little Mermaid, but had actually ended up watching it on Wednesday because they really couldn’t wait any longer.

They watched Beauty and the Beast on Monday, The Princess and the Frog on Tuesday, The Little Mermaid on Wednesday, and Brave on Thursday.

"Which one are we watching today?” Paige asked.

Hercules.” Ellie answered.

“But… Megara isn’t-”

“I know she isn’t a Disney princess, but I kinda consider her one.” Ellie interrupted her.

“How?” Paige asked.

“Well… she kinda “married” a Greek god.”

“They didn’t get married. And that still doesn’t make her a princess.”

Okay! We’ll watch Hercules first and then we’ll watch Aladdin to make it count, alright?” Ellie asked her, to which Paige smirked in triumph.

“So,” Paige began, “how are you guys doing with the play?”.

“Pretty good, actually. Even though we haven’t started official rehearsals yet, the stagehands have already begun to work on the props and the backdrops and all that.” Ellie said as they rounded the corner, waving to a couple of guys who were in theatre.

“There are a lot of props in the musical, Ellie. Are you sure you guys will be able to pull it off?” Paige asked her.

Ellie smiled sarcastically and nodded her head.

“Of course! There are like 25 people as the crew and stagehands, plus all the students who want extra credit and community service hours. In conclusion, we have half the school working on our play."

“Really? Making props gives you community service?”

“Yep.”

“Think I can join?”

“I think so. Come with me today before school ends and we’ll ask.” Ellie said.

Ellie was really excited. She was eager to start with rehearsals already!
