A/N: So I'm participating in the 12 days of Kristanna challenge by picture-of-sophisticated-grace on Tumblr. This is my first Kristanna related fic so I'm hoping you guys enjoy it.
Day 1 - My True Love Gave to Me (Modern AU)
"These are for you."
Kristoff fumbled with the bouquet as he handed them to Anna. An excited smile spread across her face creating the fuzzy feeling that warmed the mountain man.
"Crocuses," she took a delicate sniff, "These are beautiful!"
"I'm glad you like them. I didn't know if you wanted roses. I mean what girl doesn't like roses but you know-"
"Kristoff," she touched his shoulder, "They're wonderful."
He relaxed at her hand. They have been dating for a few months but just being around the red head made him a nervous wreck. He had little to offer so taking Anna out could be difficult. He really hoped she would like this small surprise.
"So, are you ready to go?"
Anna nodded excitedly. He told her to wait while he headed inside the barn real quick. Probably, to go check on, Sven, she thought. Anna still found it funny that she actually knew someone who had a reindeer as a pet. Still, the small quirks were what attracted Anna in the first place.
She bounced on her feet both in excitement and to keep warm in the snow. Throughout the entire day, her head filled with different scenarios on what Kristoff's surprise might be. He had asked for her to meet at his house for their date and to dress warm. Because he lived a little far from town, it gave Anna plenty of time to tell he sister all of her ideas on the way here. She wondered if Elsa regretted driving her after that.
A faint jingling caught her attention. When she looked up, Kristoff led Sven out of the barn.
"Sven is going to give us a little assistance tonight."
The reindeer gave grunt as he shook which made all the bells on him jingle. Anna giggled and noticed Sven was attached to a sleigh.
"A sleigh ride?" Anna gasped.
Kristoff smiled, "I was hoping you would like it."
She quickly ran into his arms and he enveloped her in a warm hug. Kristoff helped her take a seat, gave Sven a carrot, and jumped inside to join her. He called for Sven to go and the trip began. Small lanterns hung from the trees to light the way.
The couple remained quiet as they sat together. She clutched on to her flowers and stared at the forest around her. She snuck a glance at the blonde. He seemed a bit nervous. Anna bit her lip and scooted closer to him.
"This is really nice," she said.
"Thanks," he responded. Mentally, he smacked himself. Thanks? Why would you say that? Then he noticed Anna shivered. "Are you cold?"
"A little. I guess I did need that extra sweater."
Kristoff barely lifted his arm when Anna snuggled her small frame against him. A blush warmed his cheeks as he rested his arm on her and laid his head on hers. After a few minutes, Anna pointed at the sky.
"Look it's starting to snow!"
Sure enough, small white specks started to fall. One landed on Kristoff's nose and Anna giggled. He blew it away, his blush growing brighter.
"Should we turn around?" he asked.
"A few more minutes?" Anna pouted.
He nodded. It's not like he could say no to that face. He's tried. They finally reached the final lantern and headed back to the house. Kristoff rewarded Sven with a bunch of carrots once he safely rested back in his warm barn. He returned back to Anna waiting in the snow.
"Any more surprises?" she asked him.
"I do have hot chocolate."
She squealed, "That sounds great! I love you!"
Anna planted a kiss on his lips. He stood there a bit flustered, did she just say…
"Race you to the house!"
She ran off and Kristoff shook out of his daze to follow after her. He smiled to himself. So, he couldn't give her everything. At least he gave her a night to remember.
