Winter Love
"When love is real, it finds a way" -Avatar Roku
Chapter 1
From afar, a platinum blonde haired girl sits in one of the benches at the halls of Arendelle High. Her name is Elsa, a shy and quiet type of person. She's a wallflower who just her icy blue eyes to understand her surroundings.
She may miss having to socialize, but Elsa sometimes enjoy doing these things because she learns a lot from it.
After all, the joy her hobby brings is just what she needs.
And currently Elsa was being isolated from the students of Arendelle High. Sitting comfy with a book on her lap and legs crossed under the bench.
The bell rings, and the expressions of the faces that passes in front of her turns cold and empty when their eyes lands on Elsa. Even one manages to glare at her way.
Elsa got used to it. Of course, when you're experiencing this every single day, it isn't possible to do so. But sometimes she can't help but get hurt.
Elsa lowers her eyes back to the book she is reading. The book was entertaining enough for her, but Elsa's eyes are too busy swimming with fresh tears. She remembers how she's always alone and miserable ever since she was a child. She breathes deep and covers her pale face with the book.
Come on Elsa, she whispers to herself. Conceal it. Don't feel it.
When the burden inside her heart vanishes, Elsa wipes her eyes and tries to find an escape by thinking positive things.
"Elsa! I've been searching for you." a strawberry-blonde haired girl slides next to her. The raw emotion inside swells up in delight when Elsa's younger sister, Anna turns up.
Anna is a freshman in Arendelle High, wherein Elsa's a senior. Like her, Anna isn't included in the list of the popular and the normal ones. But compare to Elsa, the younger girl has far more friends because of her bright attitude.
"Why are you trying to find me?" Elsa asks
"We're going skating, remember?" Anna tells her fondly
Better be with Anna than be stuck in the corridors of this school, thought Elsa.
"You're right." Elsa shuts the book close. "Let's go"
There is this one and only place Elsa and Anna likes about the school. It makes them feel free, maybe because the ice skating rink was never crowded with people or maybe because of the fake snow falling above their heads the school has set up for fun purposes. They have to admit, both girls just love the idea of ice and snow.
Elsa laughs as Anna almost stumbled on the entrance to the ice skating rink.
Anna's face flushes red, "You're not helping Elsa! I thought you're going to teach me how to skate!"
"I am." Elsa smiles. "You just have to take your first steps on your own. Just like a baby taking her first steps, am I right?"
"You read too much." Anna says
"I think too much." Elsa corrects
Anna struggles balancing herself on ice before they get to stand together.
"Right. So in order to walk on ice, you have to slide your foot one at a time- right, left, right, left- understand?"
Anna nods, still grasping Elsa's arms.
"Go on and try." Elsa says. "Just feel like you're sliding your shoes on a polished floor. It's the same thing." Elsa parts away from her younger sister and slides away, following her own instructions, "And when you feel like it- just run and let it go!"
Elsa runs and pushes a foot on the ice to propel herself. Without moving any legs, she moves along the smooth surface freely. Elsa laughs. extending her arms and raising her chins up to feel the cold air hitting her body. She feels like flying.
"Wait up!" Anna exclaims, her blue eyes twinkling in alert. Anna tries Elsa's steps. Intently, the strawberry haired girl travels a few steps and not a minute later, she can run easily around the rink. "This is amazing!"
"See? I told you!"
The sisters continues to glide around and to push each other for tricks and play. They may have hurting butts from falling several times, but it was worth it to make each other burst in heaps of chuckles. Their laughter echoes through the seat and to the ceiling of the ice skating rink. Elsa and Anna are red in face when they paused on an edge. Giggling, Anna tells her sister, "This is one of the best days of my life."
"Yeah."
Something breaks their talk and makes their heads spin to look. A group of people suddenly barges in the ice skating rink. Anna clutches her sister's arm at the sight of them. They were Arendelle's High official Ice Hockey team, the Reindeer Rangers.
They whoop and yell while entering the scene. All wears a hockey suit and holds a stick used to hit the hard rubber hockey puck. Elsa understand why Anna's a bit scared of the group. They were all bulky and a few of their members were among of the school's great bullies.
The Reindeer Rangers didn't mind to notice the two standing at the side who were just watching them. But one did mind. The team's captain- Jack Frost, turns his head to their place. His snowflake eyes lit up curiously at Elsa, making the platinum-haired girl grip more tightly unto the railing of the rink. Jack's white hair was being brushed by the wind when he smiled to her.
Elsa looks sideways to see if he was looking at somebody else, so far, she can only conclude that it was her- the wallflower, the chameleon people never recognized nor see.
Elsa returns her gaze to the team captain and smiles. But Jack isn't looking anymore and was busy practicing with his mates. She squeezed Anna's hand as if to tell her, 'Yes Anna, this is one of the best days of my life', and together, they exit the ice skating rink.
