Anna is known to be spontaneous girl. Growing up, she had spent so much time on her own, and did many things as she pleased. She would find random activities around the castle to fill up her time and loneliness. Her parents didn't mind what she was doing as long as she was occupied and happy.

What she wanted to do now was to make a chocolate cake. It was both hers and Elsa's favorite.

It was only midday and the princess was already bored out of her mind. Kristoff was out working, and Elsa was in one of her never ending meetings.

It has been decided.

Does she know how to bake?

Um, nope.

But it was worth a try.


The sun was setting. Queen Elsa was relieved that the meeting was finally over. It supposed to end two hours ago, but there was a lot of debate between the two kingdoms and they finally reached a consensus. She was escorting the delegates out of the meeting hall, when an aroma caught her attention.

What was that smell?

She sniffed the air.

Mmm…chocolate, she smiled, and a hint of burnt-

Wait, what? Elsa took another breath of air.

"Your majesty, is something burning in the castle?" asked the ambassador. The began to look worried.

"It's nothing to worry about," Elsa said quickly, reassuring her guests. She summoned Kai, "Will you please escort these gentlemen to their rooms. I'll see to the problem, "

She left her guests and quickly followed the burning smell. As the smell grew stronger, so did the smoke. She assumed it came from the kitchen.

It is very important for royalties to leave the servants to deal with such incident, but since Elsa wasn't just any ordinary queen, she would be the first to put out any fires. After all, it was easy and efficient.

She opened the kitchen door and was greeted with more smoke was surprised to see her panicked sister.

"Oh, no, no, no," said the 'cook' trying to fan away the smoke from the burning dish. It was on fire, and it looked like she didn't know what to do.

"Anna?" she asked, coughing.

Anna froze when she heard the familiar voice. Great.

"It's okay, Elsa," the princess replied quickly, "I got everything under control,"

Elsa raised an eyebrow, then chuckled. "Here, let me help you," and with a flick of her wrist, a mixture snow and cold air surrounded the burning plate, and extinguished the flames.

"Oh," said Anna softly.

"Let's open some windows to get some fresh air," said Elsa . The two girls opened a couple of windows, and Elsa, with the help of the cold wind, blew the smoke outside. Once the kitchen was cleared and smoke free, the blonde looked at the source of the fire. The 'dish' was nothing more than a burnt rectangular box. She didn't know what to say. Should she be mad? Anna didn't look at Elsa. The blonde noticed that her sister s dress was covered with splashes of white batter and dark liquid, and her hair was partially white, covered in flour.

"So," Elsa was the first to break the silence , in a light friendly voice, "What have you been cooking?"

Anna let out a small nervous laugh and circled the dish, "It's suppose to be a chocolate cake,"

Elsa's eyes widened.

"I got bored, so I wanted to bake something for us. Well, mostly for you since you are always so busy" the girl babbled, " I didn't know it'll turn out that bad," she laughed nervously and then cleared her throat, turning serious, "I-I'm sorry I caused you all the trouble,"

"You baked this for me?" Both of them really loved chocolate.

Anna put a loose strand behind her ear, "Yeah," she sighed "But it's ruined now," Elsa felt touched. Her sister had put so much effort into it. Elsa knew she didn't mean to abandon Anna, and she didn't expect her little sister to do anything for her.

But Elsa thinks she knows why Anna was doing this for her. To make up for the loss time the didn't have as kids, and impress her. When they were kids, Anna would draw and make lots of crafts to get her to come out of the room. Even though now Elsa is out and about, Anna still wants to keep impressing her sister.

Anna was like a gift. The person who would always know when to make Elsa happy.

"Should we try it?" the older girl asked.

Anna baffled. "Wait, what? I don't think it's a good idea. It's all burnt. We should just throw it away, "

"One bite wouldn't hurt," Elsa felt like a little kid again. She didn't care how burnt it was. She was very curious how the cake turned out to be.

The outside of the cake was badly but at the very center, it was still chocolaty and gooey. That part was where the girls managed to dig out a small meager piece which took probably about three bites. Apart from the burnt taste, Elsa thought it tasted delicious.

"It tastes really good," Elsa said, "What did you put in it?"

"Ummm…"

"Wait, you didn't look up the recipe?"

"I thought I could improvise! "

Elsa laughed. "How about we make a better chocolate cake together?"

Anna gasped "Really?" She asked excitedly. Her enthusiastic voice reminded Elsa of a five year old Anna.

Elsa nodded. "After all the meetings this week, I could really use a break. How about we try to create our own recipe of chocolate cake?"

Anna smiled.


As Gerda walked down the dark empty hallway with a lit candle in her hand, she saw light coming out from under the kitchen door. Also, a wonderful smell of chocolate.

She opened the door and was greeted with a terrible sight.

There was flour, batter, and dark liquid everywhere. On the walls, the countertops, ceiling…and she saw the girls.

Both of the girls were on the floor sleeping. Elsa had her head leaned against the wall, and Anna snoring softly on her lap. Their dresses were stained. Anna had a dark stain on her forehead and Elsa on her cheek. Looks like they had a food fight. Gerda beamed.

For many years working I the royal household, she finally got to see them as a family again. Life had been empty in the castle when they had been separated. She decided to leave them be.

She grabbed a few blankets from the other room and gently draped them over the sisters. Elsa stirred and opened her sleepy eyes. She saw the familiar servant. Gerda put a finger to her lips and pointed to Anna. They didn't want to wake the princess up.

Elsa stroked her sisters hair. She looked up and pointed to the oven.

The older lady went over and opened it. The cake was done. She pulled it out and laid it on the countertop. It smelled delicious.

Elsa mouthed a word of thanks, and closed her eyes , back into slumber while slowly stroking her sisters hair.

Greda smiled and decided to leave the sisters alone.

They'll be up in an hour or two, but for now, let the girls sleep and enjoy each other's company.


If you had noticed, I had decided to change the title of the story. The title wasn't matching up to the stories I had in mind. Happy New Year! :)
