"Elsa! wake up, WAKE UP!"
I jerked awake,
"Anna! go back to sleep...." I yawned and turned over.
"You just can't! Your awake now, it's 7:00, and today is our first day of school!"
I jolted up and leaped out of bed. Today was our first day of school in a new town we had just moved to! I quickly took a shower, brushed my hair and teeth, pulled on a blue shirt and shorts and a pair of skin colored gloves and looked at myself in the mirror. I braided my hair into a French braid which I slung over my shoulder and smiled at my reflection and said to my self,
"Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know!"
I had a secret which no one knew about except me and my mom and dad. I could, with the wave of my hand, or the tap of my foot, could summon ice or snow to do what ever I wanted it to do. It was a secret I had now keep since a really young age when I first learned about my powers. I was now 17 and have learned to conceal them pretty well, with the help of gloves.
I ran downstairs to the smell of bacon and eggs, my favorite! Anna had already eaten and was putting her dishes away when I walked in.
"Don't worry, I left some for you!" she teased.
"Good to know." I said back, smiling as I heaped the bacon and eggs on a plate I had gotten from the cupboard. "Where are mom and dad?"
"They left a note saying they were called away for a important business trip last night and had to leave immediately. They said they would be back some time next week." Anna informed me.
"I see...." I said, wishing they were still here to see me off on my first day if school in a new town.
I had just finished eating a putting my plate and fork away when I heard a beep from out side.
"It's the bus!" Anna squealed!
We grabbed our bags and went out side. I locked the door to our house and we both walked over to the bus. We had taken a seat toward the back when suddenly a boy of about 15 bumped into Anna on his way to the back if the bus. He had reddish-brown hair and brown eyes.
"I'm so sorry! Are you hurt?" he asked.
Anna replied, "no, I'm fine...actually..." They looked at each other for a moment the the boy said, "oh! where are my manners? I'm Hans SouthernIsles."
I'm Anna, Anna Arendall." Anna replied.
"I'll see you around then Anna." Hans said and, glancing at Anna again, went all the way to the back of the bus where I guessing his friends were sitting.
"He's cute." I teased Anna, who seemed like she was in dream land.
"Yeah....." She replied dreamily, staring into the distance.
-----------------------
Anna and I walked into the office at DreamHigh High School after we got off the bus.
"Hi," I said to the lady at the front desk, "I'm Elsa Arendall and this is my sister, Anna Arendall."
The lady consulted her list, "Yep, here you are!" She handed us our ID cards with our locker numbers and a picture of us on it along with our name and phone number and how old we were, and our schedule sheet with all our classes and what times they were.
"I'm locker number 56, what one are you?" Anna asked.
I looked at my locker number, "I'm number 205." I frowned. Great, I'm new to this school and I don't even get a locker by my sister.
