bornoficeandsnow said: don’t tell the queen what to do

“I said please, your Highness.”

Rapunzel cringed. Dear god, why? She turned, her eyes focusing upon the brunette boy. Apparently it was a stroke of luck that their lockers were practically next to each other. Folding her arms across her chest, she leaned her shoulder against her locker with a hint of a glare on her face. “Oh, you mean Pascal? He has a name,” she muttered. “And he’s just late, not that you’d care,” she added, turning back to her locker and unlocking the lock. She grabbed a few books and folders out for her first class. Why Jack had to annoy the crap out of her was beyond her. Perhaps he just liked to get a rise out of her — but she wouldn’t give him that satisfaction. He had the whole school to bully, yet here he was annoying her. 

“What do you want, Jack?” she sighed, turning to face him yet again. Her finger traced the binding of her folder as her eyes darted across the hall, keeping a watchful eye out for Pascal. He was a small guy, and an easy target for bullying. Although, the guy didn’t give in easily, which was probably worse. 

“You’re right, I don’t, but thanks for reminding me,” he scoffed. He then began the challenging task of searching through his books in the locker and shoving them into his bag. If his mother were there, she would say, you can’t find anything in that dumpsite. “Don’t you nerds have this rule against being late or something?” he asked, though he didn’t really expect–or want–an answer. Slamming the locker door shut, he slung one strap of his backpack onto his shoulder. “Who said I wanted anything? I was just getting–”

His sentence was cut short when someone from the hallway hollered at him. “Jack! Hey man, what happened to you this morning?” he said, walking up to them, a crowd of three people behind him. Jack turned and saw a boy in a buzz cut, wearing a red varsity jacket. It was Nick, the school’s quarterback, and everybody knew him. "My parents ditched me. Again,“ he said, rolling his eyes; supposedly Jack was to meet up with his friends at the back of the school that morning. Nick narrowed his eyes at him. "Did they ditch you, or were you, uh, too busy flirting with shorty?” he asked, turning to Rapunzel. Jack could hear his other friends snickering behind him.

Nikki nodded understandingly. It was probably better that Jack had waited to tell her, God knows how she would’ve acted. She laughed at Jack’s demand. “Anything my master requests, I shall provide,” she joked, complete with a snooty, stereotypical butler accent. Going for the full effect, Nikki bowed as much as she could without threatening to tip over. She straightened before shaking her head. “But in all seriousness, I’ll do anything to make up for being such a bitch to you earlier. You didn’t deserve that. Just say the words and consider it done.”

Jack chuckled seeing her little impersonation–little might be an understatement however, considering the bow and everything. “Gimme a moment to think,” he said and paused in thought. Initially, he thought of taking an opportunity like this for something of his own benefit. But soon after idea popped into his head, he decided against it. He wasn’t like that, no, not really. “Alright,” he said, crossing his arms, his staff nudged in between them. “I want you to promise me one thing.” He cleared his throat a while, as if what he was going to say was really important. “That you’ll stand up to those kids in your school. To your step-sister.”

She took a another sip as she let the taste linger in her mouth before swallowing, she’s starting to like the taste of coffee. She looked at Jack, and eyes narrowed at him, as she suspected something from him “What did you do, Jack?,” she asked him. 

He held his hands up slightly in surrender. “Hey, chill, I didn’t do anything,” he said in a defensive tone, though it was obvious that he was being honest. “The girl at the cashier was a believer and she…” he paused, sort of creeped out remembering what happened earlier. “Well, she was obsessed with me.”

“You’ve never had a cookie?” she repeated, her eyebrows raised in surprise. He seemed a little embarrassed about the whole thing. “Hey, it’s no big deal” she shrugged with a smile. “I’ve never had…” she pursed her lips as she tried to think, “a snow cone” she grinned at him, wondering if he could actually make one. 

“I’m sorry, I wouldn’t have offered you some if I knew you didn’t eat” she tilted her head. “Do you ever just eat when you’re bored?” she asked curiously, knowing it was kind of a silly question.

“No, not really,” he said, shaking his head. But he thought it was very nice of her to ease this embarrassment of his. It was then he began to grow a little fond of her, despite the fact that they had only just met earlier. “Don’t be,” he said when she apologized. “Well, yeah I do eat sometimes, but usually just cold food, like ice cream. I’m more comfortable with cold food, to be honest.”

Going back to the snow cone, he took it as a hint. “I can try to make the snow, if you have some cones there or something.” Anything made of ice and snow was within his capabilities.
