I don't own Frozen or any of the characters. Just an idea I've had floating around in my head for a few months. I couldn't sleep and the story finally decided to put itself into words. Enjoy and let me know what you think. The next chapter will be posted soon.

Love, Serenity

Sunlight pouring in from the window was always a harsh wake up call. Today was no exception. I've never been a morning person but over the years I've adjusted. I walk to the kitchen on auto-pilot and immediately start the coffee maker. I'll never get through today without caffeine. I've been dreading this day for months; my first day of classes at a new college.

I prefer to go through life in the background, blending in with the crowd. Living in the same small town for the last 20 years made that pretty easy. Until I screwed everything up.

"Stop it," I harshly whisper to myself. I shouldn't dwell on the past today. Thankfully the smell of fresh coffee distracted me from that train of thought, at least temporarily.

I sipped my coffee as I noted how peacefully quiet the apartment was at this time of day. My roommate, Olaf, manages a coffee shop a few blocks away and has to be at work before the sun even rises. When he's home it sounds like there's a zoo hanging out so I savor these few quiet hours each morning. The only reason I put up with his insanity is because he's my best friend.

We met freshman year of college back in my home town. We had every class together fall semester and he insisted on trying to talk to me. His loud, over-friendly attitude made me a little uncomfortable at first, but he grew on me. Pretty soon we were inseparable. He even transferred colleges and moved down here with me when everything fell apart at home.

I glance over at the clock on the microwave to see that I only have 30 minutes to get to class. I have to stop getting lost in my own thoughts. Five minutes later I'm running out the door thankful that I don't bother with make-up or anything complicated.

Campus is only a few blocks away so I don't bother driving. I figured the walk could help me clear my head a bit more anyway. Sooner than I hoped though, I'm walking into my first class. I sit down in the first empty seat I see and pull out a book, hoping that if I look busy no one will try to talk to me. It must have been only a minute or two later though that I felt a tapping on my shoulder.

Before I even lift my head I hear an excited voice say "Sorry if I'm bugging you but I'm in a very important argument right now and I need an outside opinion."

I glance up only to look into the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen. I quickly stop staring before she noticed but wow was this girl gorgeous. Reddish-orange hair that hung in loose waves almost to her waist, eyes that seemed to be sparkling, and an adorable dusting of freckles across her cheeks and nose. Oh no, she was asking something. Oh yeah about some argument, I should answer.

"Uh," I stuttered, "Uh sure. What was the question?"

"Who would win in a fight? Superman or Batman?" she asks like this is the most important question in the world.

This time I answer without hesitation. "Batman, of course!"

"Really?" she pouts. Wait, did she really just pout at me? This girl is too adorable. "But Superman can fly," she argued.

"Batman has all his incredible bat-gadgets though," I respond. "Besides if he was really desperate, Superman's weakness is a rock. He could easily win with that."

She looks thoughtful after my explanation but then smiles. "I guess you have a good point." She doesn't say anything else for a few seconds, but then "Hi I'm Anna. I guess I forgot to introduce myself. I do that sometimes. Especially when I'm focusing on something super important like superheroes. Haha super important superheroes. Get it? Oh I'm rambling, sorry I do that a lot. So what's your name?"

Wow this girl was like a tornado, a beautiful tornado but still. "I'm Elsa," I tell her with a small smile.

"Elsa, that's a pretty name. Are you new around here because I haven't seen you on campus before," she asks.

I try not to blush when she says my name is pretty. Hopefully she didn't notice if I did. "I am new. I actually just transferred here from Maine a few months ago."

She smiles warmly at me. "Well I can already tell we're going to be great friends Elsa."

I feel my heart fall a little when she says "friends" but I understand. I'm a girl, I'm supposed to be friends with girls if I want to keep my secret. I know that after all these years.

Before I can respond, the professor walks in and the class falls silent. I steal glances at Anna throughout the lecture. She caught me once but she just smiled at me and looked back to the front of the room.

When the class is dismissed Anna makes sure to say goodbye to me.

"Bye Elsa. I hope you have a great day and I hope I get to see you again soon. You seem like a really nice person and I hope we can hang out sometime." She says all of this in one breath and then she leans over and hugs me quickly before leaving the room. I stood in one spot for a moment, paralyzed from her hug. I could still feel the warmth of her arms and smell her perfume.

My last thought before I left the room was "I'm so screwed."
