Elsanna Week
Day Three: Nightmare
Genre:Angst/Romance (Of course)
Princess Anna fiddled with her braid as she sat in front of her vanity. The vanity mirror was decorated with a cream colored trim and appeared to be very old, no doubt her late mother's. She loved it immensely. Anna undid the end of her braid as she ran her fingertips through her hair preparing herself for bed. Her hair was now a tussled strawberry blonde mess that fell past her chest. The color of her hair matched the freckles covering her nose, cheeks, and, shoulders. She was wearing a green, lace night gown that complimented her hair and freckles all too well. The princess always looked beautiful, even with her hair a mess before bed.
Anna stood up from the chair and stretched her arms high above her with a loud yawn. The movement of her arm's this high would bring the gown with it, exposing the lower half of her ass which was covered in blood orange panties. Her peaceful stretch was interrupted when she heard a loud scream from just down the hall.
'Elsa!' Anna thought as she quickly darted through her bedroom door and down the ornate hall of the palace of Arendelle. Although it was the middle of the night, the hall was decently lit up by the full moon shining through the window. The shades of white and gray bounced off the calm water of the fjords and into the sleeping palace.
Elsa was Princess Anna's older sister, the queen to be precise, and she had been having nightmares for a few days now. The last few she had had, had not been so bad that Anna would hear her screaming, no, the last few were only so bad that Elsa would talk about them with Anna in her free time. The reason Elsa was having these nightmares was because just recently, the fact that she had magical ice powers was revealed to the kingdom. At first they feared her causing her to fear herself, she left for everyone's safety but then Anna helped her save herself and the entire kingdom. The two were no doubt grateful for each other and relieved that the situation was over without anyone being hurt or killed but that's a lot to just forget and move on with. Although Elsa acted okay on the outside, it still haunted her in her dreams. Anna couldn't deny that she didn't have a few nightmares about it either. She was just sympathetic for her older sister because now they were happening every single night. Anna didn't mind though, being there for her sister. Ever since the incident Anna had fallen madly in love with her. She promised herself to spending her life protecting Elsa, another move Elsa called reckless.
Anna arrived at the door and paused for a moment. The moon almost appeared to be shining directly on Elsa's white door painted with blue snowflakes. Anna smiled to herself and knocked on the door lightly.
"Elsa, it's me Anna, may I come in, please?" Anna asked still a little weary. After the whole incident Elsa promised to be closer with her sister, but Anna was still nervous that maybe she bugged Elsa too much. She didn't want to scare her away. In fact that was the last thing she wanted.
Anna just stood there when she heard some quiet shuffling coming from behind the door she was facing. She stepped back a little bit and the door creaked open slowly.
"Anna? Why are you awake?" Elsa asked as she rubbed her eyes while trying to hold her ice blue blanket around herself. "Are you all right?"
Anna gasped as she took in the sight of her sister. She was even beautiful when she first woke up. The moonlight bounced off of Elsa's platinum blonde hair, almost as if the older woman was glowing. Her eyes that were attempting to open all of the way also shown like ice. They matched the color of the blanket she was wearing around her similar colored night gown that was cut like Anna's. The princess shook her head and was about to answer Elsa when she noticed how the moon light also bounced off of the paleness of her sister's legs that the blanket did not cover. She gulped and then realized just how funny it was that the serious ice queen of Arendelle currently looked like a sexy, disheveled vulnerable mess. It reminded her that the queen was still human aside from her magical powers.
"Yeah, yeah, I'm all right. I just wanted to see if, you know, you were all right because I heard you scream from all the way down the hall and I know you have been having those nightmares and I just wanted to be here for you." Anna said as she held her hands in front of her. She brought them in quickly though and shivered. She looked around and realized thin ice decorated her sisters door frame and the walls. Elsa didn't mind the cold but oh how Anna was not prepared for it, in her thin dainty night gown.
Elsa watched her sister's strange movements but then realized it was because she was freezing. The nightmare she had must have created an icy aftermath.
"Do you wanna talk about it?" Anna continued with her teeth chattering.
Elsa smiled at her sister's notion. Anna had always been there for her and would recklessly put Elsa in front of her own needs a lot but Elsa stopped and made sure that Anna was being cared for too nowadays, since everything had returned to normal.
The queen reached out her arm and wrapped it around Anna's shoulder with the blanket as a cape, so now they were both underneath it. She led Anna back to her bed and tucked them both in.
Anna, still preoccupied with her sister's well being only, asked, "So what was your nightmare about?"
Elsa's eyes turned from loving to fearful in less than a second when Anna asked.
"It was horrible Anna. I honestly can't remember that much of it but I do remember one part."
"Go on." Anna asked with a reassuring smile. "You can tell me anything you know?"
"I killed you."
"What?"
"In my dream, I accidentally killed you. We were outside ice skating and you were about to slip. I wanted to catch but I was too far away. So I thought maybe if I could use some of my ice magic to form snow to make your fall easier on you, I would. So I attempted but at the same time, someone else bumped into me. I missed. The surprise changed my emotion from bravery to cowardice, so instead of snow, I shot an icicle at you." Elsa began to weep into her sister's chest and scooted closer. "I stabbed you right through the chest with my powers. And I screamed because I never want to lose you and it was an accident." Her cries became louder. "I'm so sorry."
Anna wrapped her arms around Elsa and held her tightly, her skin was cold but didn't make Anna feel colder, it was pleasant to touch. Anna was becoming much warmer since entering her sister's bed and was shocked to hear the story. Sure Elsa had accidentally hurt her before when they were little and playing in a similar manner, only except she was not stabbed in the chest. She just had ice magic thrown into her head. And then again when she was older, Elsa accidentally shot ice into her heart. Elsa never succeeded in killing her though and it was always an accident. Anna knew Elsa would never do anything to hurt her intentionally. She smiled at Elsa to let her know everything was all right.
"Elsa! Elsa!" Anna shook her playfully. She had a huge grin on her face. "Don't cry, it was only a dream. Look, I'm right here pestering you, living, breathing, moving, and, I'm not going anywhere. I'm sorry you had that dream though, but that's all it was. Just a dream." Anna squished up her face attempting to make Elsa laugh at how silly she was.
Elsa giggled quietly and lifted her head from Anna's soaked chest and nightgown up to her face. Anna lifted up her hand and wiped the tears from each side of Elsa's cool, pale face.
"All better?" Anna said, in her protective voice.
Elsa nodded her head but never took her eyes off Anna's.
"Anna, I never want to hurt you again. The last thing I want is to lose you." Elsa added definitively.
"I know Elsa, that's the last thing I want too." Anna replied her face changing from goofy to casual. "But you'll never lose me, you know that. True love will thaw. No matter what happens. We saved each other day because of how true our love was for each other. Nothing can change that."
"What if you find someone better.." Elsa began to ask but was cut off quickly by Anna.
"Find someone better?" Anna asked almost outraged. She sat up on the bed next to Anna, startling her. Elsa sat up quickly next to her. "There is no one better." Anna stated with an annoyed look on her face.
"How would you know Anna, maybe you haven't met them yet? You can't just decide to stay with me your whole life like you've said to me. You have to move on, find a lover and have a family. You can't dedicate yourself to me around the clock forever."
"Why not? Of course I can." Anna replied as she bit her lip. Her eyebrows frowned with her.
"Anna you're going to grow out of this and realize this won't be fun anymore one day. You need to live your own life." Elsa turned away from her and grabbed her knees. A single tear fell from her eye, unnoticed by Anna. Elsa really loved all the attention from Anna, and, she wouldn't want to see it, but she saw the princess as more than just her sister. She loved her. She had always been in love with her and that's why she had to bring Anna back to reality. Not only did she want to protect her sister, she wanted to protect herself. She didn't want to go on believing that Anna would dedicate her life to her and her alone because one day Anna would find someone else and up and leave. Elsa would rather that happen sooner than later, she didn't want her sister to know that she thought about her romantically or sexually. She thought it would be best to push her sister away in these aspects. She would still remain close to Anna but she wouldn't let herself live a fairy tale. The queen didn't believe a universe existed where Anna and her could be together in that sense. She bit her lip to stop a cry from escaping, just as her sister had done. Although they were like ice and fire, sometimes they were very similar.
Anna couldn't take it anymore. She gripped the blankets on the bed intensely with her fists and let out a cry as tears fell down her face. "No Elsa, I won't. I only want to be with you, can't you just believe me when I say that?" Anna was now sobbing, she had to watch her wording. She was fearful everyday that her sister would find out her dark secret and she didn't want it to slip now because she was upset. "You can't keep pushing me away like this when you don't mean it, and if you do just tell me now." Anna just kept staring at the bundles of fabrics in her clenches as tears fell quickly from her cheeks on to her bare knees and the queen's bedding. "Tell me the truth!"
The princess's last testaments broke the queen's heart. Hah. The whole moral she had learned from their last debacle was that she needed to open up and tell people the truth instead of locking it away. She began crying herself. I mean being in love with your sister couldn't be too much worse than having magical ice powers and the latter worked out in the end for her. There would always be problems to face in your life, you just have to learn to fight for the right things.
Elsa lifted her arm and dried her own tears before turning back around to Anna. She smiled and as quickly as she had wiped away her tears more replaced.
Anna looked up confused when she felt Elsa latch on to her shoulders. She looked directly into the queen's billowy eyes and chuckled to herself, 'Even when she's crying, Elsa looks amazing.'
"Anna, I'm sorry, you're right. I have to tell you the truth."
"You do?" Anna questioned her and then made a stern face and stuck her nose up in the air as she crossed her arms. "That's right you do."
Elsa laughed nervously and removed her hands from Anna's shoulders. She began fidgeting with them on her lap. "Hah, the truth. The truth is that I'm afraid to have you around so often, because the longer you're around the more it's going to hurt when you actually leave me." Elsa mentally slapped herself for still not saying it forward enough but then convinced herself it was a good start.
"But if I'm not going to leave you, what is the problem?" Anna asked matter of fact like. Opening one of her eyes to stare at Elsa waiting for 'what she had to say about that.'
Elsa shook her head and wiped her tears again. She was still smiling, trying to make it seem like she was strong and calm and knew what she was talking about in front of Anna, even though on the inside she was screaming like a child.
"No Anna, one day you will, one day you will fall in love with someone and you'll want to give all of your attention to them and not your silly big sister anymore. So don't you see.." Elsa was about to confess when she was once again caught off by her freckled sister.
"No I won't. I've already sworn myself away." Elsa lifted an eyebrow at her sister. She was actually really upset that her sister had already found another but right now was just entirely curious on who she could be talking about. "What? No you didn't. Who?"
"I can't tell you." Anna answered as she turned her head to the side and made a "humph" noise.
"Fine, then I can't tell you who I'm in love with either," Elsa said menacingly. She knew the subject would catch the girls attention and she would go crazy over it. "I was about to and then you just cut me off." Elsa said now crossing her own arms and making a snide but playful face.
Anna at this quickly jumped and turned on all fours facing Elsa.
"You have to tell me this isn't fair, you said you'd tell me everything and wouldn't keep me shut out?" Anna begged now pouting at Elsa.
"That's funny because I vaguely remember you just telling me the same thing." Elsa responded as she rested her self on her arms and leaned backwards some, still smirking at the princess.
"Elsa please, please tell me! I have to knowwww." Anna was now whining. "I told you though, I really can't tell you. It's not possible.." Her tone changed from ecstatic to depressed quickly but then right back to very excited. "So you have to tell meee, since I have to knoww!" Anna leaned even more so over Elsa and lost her balance. She tumbled onto the older sister who crashed beneath her. Their chests pressed together and legs intertwined. Their breathing patterns began syncing up.
Elsa panted and looked up to Anna. Anna's teal eyes looking back down at her with her hair hanging and framing both of their faces. It was like they were in their own little world and Elsa loved that it was full of those freckles.
Elsa closed her eyes and remembered she had wanted to tell Anna that she was in love with her, but now the moment was upon her and she was about to chicken out. She sighed softly and was about to open her mouth to speak and get it over with, when she felt a soft, warmer pair of lips weigh down upon hers. The queen opened her eyes narrowly and to see if this was truly happening and right in front of her eyes, were Anna's closed ones. She closed her eyes quickly to live this moment out, she was almost afraid that if she didn't hold onto Anna, this entire moment would just disappear. She grabbed the younger girl top of her and held her in place.
Anna's lips danced on top of Elsa's occasionally nipping lightly at hers which elicited small cries of pleasure from the older woman. Anna rested her arms over Elsa's shoulders and they dangled over the edge of the bed. She worked her tongue over the queen's lips, asking her to allow her to enter. As soon as Anna did this, Elsa brought her in and they started gently crashing their tongues into each others. This lasted for a few moments and when it stopped. Anna sat herself up quickly and dismounted Elsa.
Elsa just was lying there confused.
"I'm so sorry." Anna said as she began to freak out and lift her hands in the air. "I am so, so sorry. I didn't mean to. I mean you were just there and you seemed like you liked it though, but still I am so sorry." Elsa sat up slowly and took in all this information and an idea hit her. What if Anna was in love with her too? She had to find out but wanted to play it off cool.
The queen sat up and just sat herself next to Anna on the bed and leaned against the head board. She turned her head to face Anna's. "I did want it."
Anna looked over quickly and Elsa just winked at her and began laughing. She pulled her hand over her mouth and giggled into it.
"Wait, you did?"
"Yes, I did." Elsa repeated herself.
Anna's face lit up with a huge smile, "Oh Elsa. I love you so much. I mean, what I am trying to say is, I'm in love with you, and, that's why..I did that." Anna trailed off as she started poking her fingers together shyly.
Elsa's face lit up equally as much if not more and changed to a rosy red color. "I'm in love with you too." Elsa said casually, pulling up her knees to her chest again except this time with confidence. She wanted to keep herself cool in these moments, act how a queen should act she would tell herself. But then Anna started laughing and Elsa couldn't help but join in.
The queen cuddled herself up next to the princess and felt a warm arm wrap around her cool body.
"Hey, all the ice melted from your room." Anna said as she pointed to the ceiling.
"It did, didn't it?" Elsa said as she closed her eyes and pressed her face into Anna's chest, but this time with love instead of fear.
"I'm kind of glad you had that nightmare that killed me, because it brought me here to you and now I feel more alive than ever." It was a weird thing to say, but it was true. "I told you, I really would stay with you forever."
"I'm sorry, I didn't trust you, again." Elsa apologized and looked up to her sister.
"It's all right, I didn't trust myself either I guess there. I mean, I don't understand this fully because you are my sister and all, but I don't care, because I love you, and love will thaw all."
"You're absolutely right." Elsa confirmed her and she leaned forward and stole another kiss from the princess enveloping her.
The End!
A/N: I could add another chapter to this for some frick frack if people are interested but if not it's complete how it is now! Tell me what you think! :3
