"Congratulations!" Anna was sick of hearing that word. She wasn't excited about the events going on in her life. In fact she detested them.
All of her parents friends and many of her own were there celebrating the news. All their fancy dresses, suits, pearls, jewels, cigars and perfumed body's blurred into a colored mosaic around her. Their voices all blended together and were just one unintelligible murmur.
Anna's eyes shifted across the room to the lone figure that stood out. Her lifelong friend, a blonde man with broad shoulders who she had always seen as sturdy and handsome was here too. He was wearing the same bleak expression she had been most of the day. It appears he is no more thrilled about the news than she is. He was attempting to make small talk with Anna's older sister, Elsa. He wasn't great at interacting with people. In fact, most of his and Anna's conversations consisted on Anna talking. He just adds comments every so often and laughs.
Anna had been looking forward to her 18th birthday since she had hit her teenage years and began to form feelings for her friend, Kristoff. Because on her 18th birthday, should Kristoff have felt the same for her, they were free to marry. An idea she had played over and over again in her mind.
Social rules forbid them from being together or revealing romantic feelings until they have come to age, because of the class differences.
Despite the fact her family had noble name, she wanted to earn her own money for her dreams. She'd saved up money from working at the castle as an aid to the royal brothers for three years. She had enough for a nice dress and a little extra. Kristoff had been working in the mountains for most of his life and often told Anna of the money he'd been saving up for a special reason. She could only have hoped it was for a ring for her and a home for them. And he would have asked tonight if that was the case.
Only someone threw a wrench into the plans.
She wasn't getting engaged to Kristoff on the evening of her coming of age birthday, there was no perfect little ring or trinket from Kristoff at all. There was only a huge gathering of people in her family's home, an envelope bearing the royal and a note saying that Anna was now engaged to the youngest prince, Hans.
