They both get into the admin office to get Elena's subjects and locker combination.
"Hello, Ms Bertha," Fran says with her hand on the counter. Ms Bertha a gnome in a red dress and glasses sighs and looks up at Fran with soulless eyes.
"Hello, Francesca. How may I help you?"
"Oh, not me. My friend here, you must have heard of her, Elena Baron-Grant." Fran says pointing at Elena and Elena waves at Ms Bertha. Ms Bertha looks at Elena with those dead eyes, it's almost like she hates her job or worse, her life.
"Oh yeah, welcome to Hollow Prep Academy Ms Elena." She says, even her voice is soulless. She brings out a sheet of paper and hands it over to Elena, Elena hesitates but she takes the paper from her. "These are the subjects you'll be offering, there are some that are compulsory and some that are elective you have to pick the ones you want to do. Please take your time." Ms Bertha says all this while looking at her computer, it's not like she's even doing anything important. She's just playing a game of gambit.
Elena looks at her list.

"I'm done." She says then Fran looks at her list.
"Geography. Hmm, bold choice." Fran says and Elena shrugs. She wants to learn more about Euroix.
Ms Bertha takes the list from her andshe looks at the list meticulously. Then she gets up from her chair and heads out back to the bookstore.
"Should we go help her or…"
Fran waves her off. "She got this."
Ms Bertha comes back with a list of a pile of textbooks and Elena is shocked that for someone made of glass, she is pretty strong. She drops the books on the counter.
"These are your textbooks, your locker combination and this is your schedule." she drops the schedule on top of the math textbook. Her eyes are set on the literature texts. What was she thinking that they'd be learning Shakespeare here? They probably don't know who that is.
These are new books written by authors made in this world and they look fantastic and she cannot wait to start reading them.
The titles of the books are very intriguing.
How the Water princess turned into a nymph
The arrogant prince and the pixie
The queen's favourite magical creature
The runway fairy princess.
"Thank you," she says and Fran helps her to pack some of her books. They walk out of the admin office to look for her locker.
"I appreciate you doing this for me Fran," Elena says while she struggles to hold her books together.
"It's no problem, us girls have to stick together," she says winking at her new friend. The way she holds her books is so flawless, that she doesn't even struggle. Is that how strong she is? Elena knows that she hits the gym.
They go looking for her locker, they have their eyes set on the number 46. while looking for the locker, her books go flying to the ground and just when she thinks it's her carelessness that caused it. She hears laughter andshe realizes the girl with the long white hair is the one who threw her books to the ground. She and her friends laugh as they walk away.
And while she goes drops to pick her books she's like damn, when they said people here are rude they meant it.
"What the bloody hell Anastasia!? it's my cousin you're messing with!" A guy says he bends over to help Elena with her books she looks straight at this person and it's her cousin…
"Henry." She says.
"That's me cuz." he winks and rises to his feet when he gets Elena's books from the ground. "hello Fran." He says to her and Fran just rolls her eyes and looks away.
Elena looks at her cousin up and down, and now she understands fully why Alex calls him a heartbreaker. He has the most handsome face here. No, he's not just handsome Prince Henry Maxwell Julius Baron-Grant is beautiful.
He has those big gigantic blue eyes that can lore any boy or girl to his bed, the cupid's bow lips he keeps chapped up ready to kiss anyone, his face heart shaped like Elena's and his hair is a sandy blond like his mother's and it's all gelled up. His cheeks are rosy making him even cuter.
His style is also provocative. For one he's wearing his blazer, shirt and tie but they're not buttoned up and his tie isn't even knotted. Everyone can see the white vest that he's wearing that shows his chest. His trousers are slim-fitted that can easily show his nice round butt. Everything he does is either on purpose or he's the reincarnation of Apollo and it all comes naturally.
And his smile is so pretty, his teeth are as white as anything, it's whiter than the colour. Alex hates him for a reason and Elena has thought of hating him too. But this is her cousin should she not show some love to him?
"I would hug you but my hands are occupied." He says and Elena just nods. She doesn't know what else to say to him.
"That was Anastasia the princess of Russia?" She asks.
"More like the princess of Tartarus," Fran says and Henry's eyes widen at her statement.
"Francesca! Ugh you know I've missed you."
"And I haven't missed you."
"Aww." he pouts placing his hand on his chest. "That hurt."
And from Fran's reaction, she's going to take that as a yes. That is Anastasia, the girl who broke Pierre's heart by sleeping with her cousin the boy standing right in front of her. And if Elena's theory is correct. Henry only had sex with her because he can and there are no feelings attached whatsoever. And he doesn't care who has a boyfriend or girlfriend hejust goes it.
"I could stay here and talk about your feelings, which is something you don't have or you can help your cousin look for her locker," Fran says in a harsh tone. Elena just looks between thebothof them.
"Oh, yes your locker's 46, sweet just next to mine. Follow me." he sings and he walks ahead. Fran sighs and says. "Of course."
They follow him to the locker and there it is, the blue metal thing Elena can put her books in. "Thank you," she says.
"It was my pleasure." He winks.
Elena begins to put the combination and when it opens she gets her books from Henry and begins to put the books inside.
"So, you and Alex Walker are tight aren't you?" Henry says and Elena furrows her brows as to why he's talking about Alex.
"Oh my Gods Henry," Fran says.
"What?" Henry says acting like he doesn't know why she just exclaimed like that.
"What? Leave that boy alone. He's not into you." she says and Elena's eyes widen.
"Not yet," Henry says pointing at her. "Everyone's into me."
"Ugh, not me."
"Except the lesbians," he says looking her up and down.
"Henry, are you coming?" The girls who laughed at Elena when her books were tossed to the ground ask and Henry just looks at them with a grin on his face.
"Looks like duty calls. Cousin, it's so good to see you. I'll be checking on you to see how you're doing okay. Don't get into any trouble, that's my route." he winks and then runs toward the girls. The girls especially Anastasia give Elena a bad stare before walking away.
"I swear to Gods I hate them a lot."
"What's this about Alex? He likes him?"
"Oh please Henry Baron-Grant does not like anyone but himself. He just sees Alex as a constellation prize." Fran rolls her eyes. "Thank Goodness Alex is smart, unlike almost everyone at this stupid school."
The bell goes off.
"There goes the bell. What do you have first?" she asks Elena and Elena looks at her schedule. "English," she says.
"Good, let's go then." they walk down the hall. "I have a feeling we're going to be great friends Elena."
"Me too."
And so the princesses head to English class.
