A/N: Ladies and gentlemen I present to you my new story and chapter two of Strawberry Thief! All the reviews asked for a continuation and here it is! I know I said I would wait, but the chapter was already ready to go, so I hope you like it.
I don't own Frozen or the characters just the plot. Let's roll.
When the gentle light of the tranquil morning sun gleamed through the windows of Anna's bedroom, Anna knew it was time to get up. But her eyes had yet to open. Today was her day off so she would have the day to herself. And she couldn't help but think about the strange dream she had last night. She made a deal with a fruit eating vampire to let her live with her and give her a portion of her strawberries at the end of the week in exchange for leaving the patch alone. Man what a crazy dream. She slowly shifted in her bed so that she was on her side. She felt Copper lick her neck and she chuckled quietly,
"Copper give me another minute, momma's sleeping" she sighed. However the licking continued.
"Ah but momma, I'm hungry" a voice said with a pouty tone. Okay Anna knew that her dog was not talking to her. Dogs don't talk. Her blue eyes shot open and there met with another pair of blue eyes, only they were sharper in color. When her sleep induced haze cleared she saw a familiar blonde smirking at her with flirtatious eyes. If it hadn't been for the fact that Anna's memory was keen, she would have freaked out, tumbled out of her bed and screamed bloody murder. Oh wait she did.
"IT WASN'T A DREAM!" she shouted as she stared at the blonde who was laying languidly on her bed, looking down at her with amused eyes.
"Given the circumstances, no it wasn't, so good morning beautiful" she said casually but the look of amusement had not left her pale, but gorgeous face.
"You! How are you sitting here? It's daylight. Doesn't the sun hurt vampires?" Anna asked with tired curiosity.
"Well yes and no. You see the morning sunlight does not hurt me, but once noon hits, from then on I can't be outside, since the sun gradually makes the day hotter and brighter. So the morning is safe." She explained.
"Ugh, wait, where is my dog!" Anna demanded.
"That adorable little runt? He's outside in the backyard" Elsa smiled, her fangs exposed. Anna's face paled.
"He can't be out there by himself! He wanders off!" Anna said with a panic before scrambling to her feet and dashing out of her room. She skidded down the hallway and towards the backyard. She flung the door open and saw that Copper was struggling to get up the stairway.
"My baby!" Anna exclaimed as she went to pick the puppy up. However she was not aware that Elsa had followed her, and was now leaning in the doorway.
"You know, not that I'm complaining, but do you think it wise to be outside in nothing but your shirt and underwear?" Elsa asked giving Anna an appreciative look at her mostly exposed lower body. At first Anna wondered if she was just harassing her again. But she remembered that she normally slept in an oversized shirt and underwear. A blush covered her face as she tucked Copper under her right arm and pulled the shirt down with her left, hoping to cover whatever she could from the perverted vampire's eyes.
"Wait don't do that! I said I wasn't complaining!" Elsa said with a chuckle as Anna stormed past her grumbling some kind of obscenities with a heavy blush on her face. Elsa floated after her teasing her relentlessly.
"Shut up!" Anna yelled before slamming the door in Elsa's face. The blush had not left her face, but her frustration had grown, it wasn't even ten in the morning and she was already wanting to go back to sleep.
"Copper, do I have a chance of jumping out my window and escaping?" Anna whispered, hoping that Elsa had not heard her.
"Its not very likely, I'm much faster than you" Elsa's voice called from the other side. And Anna groaned.
"What did I agree to Copper?" Anna whined as she went to her closet to pull out some work clothes. This was going to be a long day.
When noon hit, Anna could not have been happier. Elsa had fallen asleep, in Anna's closet of all places, which meant Anna was free until nightfall. Seven and a half hours of bliss. Elsa had teased her relentlessly all morning and Anna wasn't sure what to do. Placing sexual harassment charges were out of the question, what lawyer would believe that Anna was being harassed by a fruit eating vampire that she agreed to let live in her house in exchange for food? How does that make her look? Crazy that's what. So, while she tended to her garden, her thoughts had somehow always ended up going back to the blonde. Why did she really let the blonde stay, she could have easily declined Elsa's part of the offer. And yet she didn't.
"I wonder why" Anna mumbled to herself as she pulled a few weeds from the patch. The thought did not stay long as her phone began to ring. She recognized the ringtone, it belonged to her friend Amelia Gladden. She was the captain in the navy, but she was not on tour for the time being.
"Good afternoon captain" Anna said with a smile on her face. A chuckle could be heard from the other line.
"Very funny Anna, I was wondering if you would like to accommodate me to a new restaurant that opened, I heard the food is smashing" Amelia said. See Amelia originally hailed from the United Kingdom, a place Anna had not had the privilege of visiting just yet.
"That sounds great Amelia, I'll finish up over here and meet you there, just send me the address" Anna said.
"Wonderful, I'll see you in half an hour?" she asked.
"Sounds perfect, bye Amelia" Anna said.
"Goodbye dear" then the two hung up. Anna rushed back to the house, with Copper tumbling behind her. She set the automatic sprinkler on and went inside. Since she had about fifteen minutes to leave, Anna decided to keep the outfit simple today. She set Copper in his kennel before going to her room one hallway away. She remembered that Elsa was sleeping so she tried to stay as quiet as possible.
"I'd hate to wake her, even if she's a vampire" Anna whispered to herself. She went to her dresser and pulled out a long brown skirt that went just past her calves. Now she had a green baby doll shirt that would go perfectly with it, but that meant that she would have to open the closest.
"I'll just close the blinds that way the sun won't get through" Anna said to herself before moving to close all the blinds. And it made the room dark. True little rays of light got in, but not enough to hurt Elsa, Anna thought. She approached her closet and opened it. The closet was big, but not enough to be a walk-in. But Anna liked it that way. She couldn't see Elsa anywhere, but when she moved her pink hoodie to the left, she found Elsa hanging upside down, wings wrapped around her body, sleeping soundly.
"Aw, she's so cute!" Anna said with quiet giggle. She didn't know what possessed her to do it, but she ended up gingerly petting Elsa's little head with her index finger.
"Maybe if she stayed like that, I wouldn't mind her as much" Anna chuckled to herself as she spied the shirt she was looking for and slowly took it out. Then as quietly as possible, she closed the door.
"Alright, now I just need to change, do my hair and find my shoes" Anna said making a mental list. She only had about twenty minutes at this point.
"So Amelia how does it feel to be home for a change?" Anna asked from across the table. She met Amelia in front of the new restaurant. It was a new seafood restaurant called Atlantica. The place looked like an underwater palace with all the blues and greens. The lighting even made it look like you were underwater. There were fishing nets hanging along the walls with an assortment of ceramic sea creatures. They were sitting in a booth near the back on the left.
"I tell you darling, nothing beats a good spot on ship and crew, but even a captain needs a break from time to time. So to answer your question, it's lovely" Amelia said. Now Amelia was a tall woman with distinctive features. Her hair was red done in a short bob. Her eyes were an intelligent green and cat-like in some ways. And her skin was a peach color but she definitely made it work. She overall looked like authority in human skin. But she was kind once you got to know her.
"Now enough about me, I need to know, have you found a lucky lady yet?" she asked. Oh and she was a bit nosy at times.
"M-Me? Oh no, are you kidding me, with work and my strawberry patch my love life is non-existent" Anna said, trying to ignore the onslaught of visons of a certain blonde vampire in her mind.
"Is that so? Well that's certainly a shame" Amelia sighed as she picked up her menu. Anna following her example. Everything looked wonderful, and had surprisingly reasonable prices.
"I want to try the scallop and lobster Alfredo, what about you Amelia?" Anna asked as she set down the plastic menu.
"Hmm, I'm in quite a conundrum, what do you think lemon salmon or lobster bisque. Its today's house special" Amelia asked.
"What's the prices for each?" Anna asked.
"Well the bisque is eight ninety three, it comes with a side, and the lemon salmon is a dollar more, but no side" Amelia said. Anna thought it over a second, weighed the pros and cons.
"I'd go with the bisque, if you don't like it, at least you have a side" Anna said.
"Hmm very true, alright then, lobster bisque it is." Amelia decided.
"Great, so what's new with you?"
When Anna returned it was close to sunset, after leaving the restaurant, she and Amelia ended up spending the day together. They went window shopping, grabbed a snack and went to the bakery, where Anna purchased a dozen fruit tarts. But the day was drawing to a close, and Anna had to head home.
Anna opened her front door and walked in. It was quiet, and she liked it that way. However seeing as she had a new roommate, this might be a bad thing.
"Copper! Momma's home" Anna called, and Copper's puppy like howls suddenly filled the house. She laughed as she went to the living room. Copper was scratching at him door, eager to get out and greet his master. The metal door was opened and the puppy tripped over himself trying to climb up her knees to reach her face.
"I missed you too buddy, let's go outside, I have to check on the strawberries" Anna chuckled as she got up. The little pup happily followed her. She walked onto the back porch and saw how quickly the sun was setting, meaning Elsa would be up soon. Heaven help her when that happens.
"Man I'm tired, but someone has to watch these" Anna said with a sudden yawn. She walked to the gate and entered the strawberry patch. She would have sat on the ground, but she didn't want to get her skirt dirty. So instead she had to either squat or bend over. And she did that, for the next twenty minutes. And after she had finished. She had picked a large handful of strawberries, but also managed to strain her back. After she washed the strawberries, she went to her room and laid on her bed on her stomach. A groan of pain escaped her lips as her back flexed in pain.
"My back is killing me" she whined into the bed spread.
"I can help with that" Elsa said. She apparently had woken up.
"I'd rather suffer thank you" Anna groused. Giving the remark Elsa made last night, Anna did not want the vampire touching any part of her.
"Come now, a back massage won't be so bad will it?" she asked in what sounded like concern. Anna stayed quiet. She was debating Elsa's offer. But when another wave of pain swept through, she reluctantly agreed.
"Okay fine, but if you "slip" or go too low, I will hurt you" Anna warned. The blonde rolled her eyes in amusement.
"Whatever you say my little strawberry" Elsa purred as she hopped onto the bed next to Anna's still form.
"Fair warning, my nails are a little sharp, but I'll be gentle I promise" Elsa said. Anna blushed into the blanket. She did not like the way Elsa phrased that sentence. She then touched Anna's back. Her skin was cool against her back. She could feel it through the material.
"My goodness, what were you doing?" Elsa asked in surprise as she kneaded Anna's back muscle.
"I was tending to the strawberry patch. I normally sit down, but I was wearing a nice skirt" was her muffled answer.
"You could have changed you know, I'm a fairly heavy sleeper" Elsa said. Her fingers gliding over Anna's back. A sudden chill ran up her spine. Whether or not Elsa felt it was up for debate. But Anna sure felt it, and was surprisingly nice. And for a few minutes, Anna was lulled by Elsa's gestures. Maybe Elsa would be good for something after all.
"Oh I feel a knot, bear with me for a second" Elsa said before putting a little more pressure in the middle of her spine. And the next thing Anna knew, she had a semi loud mewling noise and froze. Elsa froze too. And for the life of her, Anna knew that Elsa was going to either say or do something.
"Well" was all the blonde said at first as Anna scrambled to her knees and moved away from the blonde. Anna was blushing with embarrassment, as she dared to look at her face. And it turns out she was wrong on both accounts. Instead of saying or doing something, Elsa gave her the most spine tingling smirk she had ever seen. Her eyes glowing with mischief.
"Don't!" Anna warned weakly.
"Anna I never knew" she continued slowly as she got on her hands and knees and approached her in a predatory manner.
"Elsa I'm warning you!" Anna said a little more quietly as she backed up a bit more.
"That you could make such noises, if I had known that, I would have offered you a massage last night" she growled crouching down as if she was preparing to pounce on her. Red flags were going off in Anna's head. And they all said one thing. Run. So she rolled off the bed and sprinted towards the bathroom. She made it just in time and even managed to lock the door.
"Haha! You can't get me now!" Anna yelled triumphantly.
"I could, but I doubt you want a broken door. So I'll let you have this one, but you should remember Anna. Elsa always gets the last laugh" she warned smuggly before going silent. The only sound that could be heard was Elsa's fading footsteps. Meaning she had left the room. Maybe. But she was not going to risk it. She leaned against the door and slid down. She had started blushing again. Something, ever since Elsa showed up, she did more and more often.
"Oh and Anna?" Elsa said, she had returned.
"I don't want to hear it" Anna said. And she was met with silence. A sigh of relief could be heard.
"That little mewl was absolutely delicious, you should do that more often" she purred. Anna squealed and hit the door. Elsa gave a hearty laugh before leaving again. Poor Anna was a blushing mess on the floor.
