Awww yea! Gosh I was stuck for the longest time, but as soon as I got past it, it was free flowing from there!
I hope ya'll like! Enjoy!
"My mom thought you were my girlfriend."
Elsa blinked as she stopped what she was doing and turned to the redhead. Anna wasn't looking to the older woman as she gripped her bag. Her freckled cheeks were covered in a slight blush as she was pouting. How adorable.
"I'm flattered, but I didn't know you were into girls," Elsa smiles as she jumps onto the stage to sit down. Anna's cheeks flush more before the girl looks to her.
"I'm gay, there now you know," Anna huffs and Elsa just smiles.
"Hi gay, I'm lesbian, lovely to meet you," Elsa chuckles at seeing the redhead blush even more, her face now matching her hair. Her teal eyes search ice blue for any signs that she was mocking her. Anna throws her arms in the air.
"Are you mocking me?" She says her voice an octave or two away from a scream. Elsa just laughs as she leans back and grips her stomach.
"Not funny, the world is still cruel to the queer," Anna huffs and turns around as her arms fold over her chest. Elsa smiles and places her hands on the girls shoulders. Anna leaned back slightly at the gentle pull till Elsa's chin rested on her shoulder.
"I am being honest with you, min rødhårede en," Elsa purred softly making the girl stiffen in her grasp. Elsa could feel the heat from the girls blush radiate into her cheek. She smirked and let the girl go.
Anna stood frozen at the spot till the others arrived and Elsa could only giggle at how cute the girl was. She couldn't help but let her gaze travel over the girl. Today she was wearing acid washed blue jeans with the same red sneakers as the day before. Her shirt had a donut on it that read 'I donut care', which made Elsa giggle slightly. The girl was also wearing the same plaid jacket from the day before, her hair also still in braided pigtails.
After all the kids arrived Elsa snapped herself out her stare and smiled to the rest of the class. The part that was to come both excited her and angered her. She knew who her best students were and she knew who was her…students. She just hopped that this would be painless.

"Hans, could you please just do the line as it is in the script? We can do improve once everyone has a role and understands their character," Elsa sighed as she pinched the bridge of her nose. A headache was brewing and it was only 9am.
Hans wasn't a bad actor, he was actually really good, but he had a way of, well, wanting to steal the spot light. He could go far with acting, but he needed to learn that there was a time and place for things and not everything was about him.
"But Miss Arendelle, I just think they could have made the character more charming and gave him a bit more lines," he says waving the script in his hand. Elsa uncrosses her legs from the seat she was on and stood up, walking over to the stage. She vaulted up and snatched the script from him.
"Hans is supposed to be a minor character in the start; the audience needs to think that he is a great respectful guy and that they should be rooting for him to win the princess's heart. I mean who the hell agrees to marry someone they met just that day?" Elsa questions and whacks the script against his forehead as he opens his mouth to speak.
"Sure the princess is supposed to come off as a lovable goof that the audience just wants to hug, but we aren't trying to make them think she's being stupid, even though she is. There is a deeper meaning to her agreeing so fast. She craves the affection the prince shows her and that is why the prince needs to come off as the best person to give her what she needs," Elsa explains before giving Hans the script back.
"You will have your time to shine near the end Hans, you just need to wait your turn, like a good villain," Elsa smiles and pats his cheek. He sighs and nods letting the next person do their audition. Elsa makes her way back to her seat and crosses her legs under once more to settle in.
Anna was sitting behind her, watching the guys do their auditions for the male roles. Her sneakered feet were ankle crossed on the backrest of the chair beside the teacher. Her teal eyes scan over the blonde as she absently doodles on the cover of her script.
Elsa was wearing light blue skinny jeans, with a grey shirt and black vest over that, unbuttoned. Usually when she was teaching she would be barefooted, her usual black pumps near her things and as usual her hair was in a messy bun. It looked like it was going to fall out at any moment, but somehow it never does.
Anna shakes her head and turns her attention back to the stage. She tried to focus, but her mind kept wondering to her mom asking if Elsa was her girlfriend. She doesn't know why, but her reaction was probably not helpful. She had started blushing and just said no before disappearing into her room. How hard was it to just say that it was her teacher? She's going to blame this on her being half asleep when it happened.
"Kristopher, you need to speak up. The ice harvester is a pretty confident guy and I would really love to see you play him. Pull your shoulders back and buff out your chest, make yourself look bigger and stronger, you got this," Elsa smiled to the soft spoken man. He was just a big old teddy bear and she'd love to see him come out of his shell.
The man nods and tries the scene again. Still not perfect, but at least he was trying. Things like that brought her joy and made her love her job.
Anna rolled her eyes and looked to her script. The front page had its corners dotted with stars and swirls. She sighs and opens the booklet and starts making notes on her lines. It feels sort of weird to read her own name like this, but it made things a little more interesting.
She's only seen the movie once and even then she wasn't paying much attention. Maybe she should go re-watch it, that or watch the Broadway version, but she doubts she could find footage of it that would help. She was not about to fork out cash to fly to America and go see it.
"Um Miss Arendelle," she pipes up, interrupting the kid doing his bit and making Elsa turn to look at her. She had a delicately plucked eye brow raised and Anna swallowed hard.
"I just have a question regarding the start of the show. It starts with the characters as kids, what are we going to do about that?" Anna asks. Elsa lets a smirk tug at her lips.
"Easy, go to a few schools and hold auditions there and let them use the experience as collage credit of their applications to collages. It also encourages them to come to our university," Elsa winked. Anna was impressed with that line of thought.
"I am a step ahead, min rødhårede en," Elsa says as she turns back to the stage. Anna feels her cheeks flush as the woman waves for the kid to continue.
"Begynner å høres ut som et kjæledyrnavn," Anna huffs under her breath as she slid down her seat some making Elsa tilt her head and give her a sideways glance.
"Hva om det er et kjæledyrnavn?" Elsa whispered making Anna meep and slide further down her seat to hide. The result was her feet on the backrest of the chair moving more, which Elsa promptly pushed off with a chuckle. Anna flailed a bit and removed her feet.
~Nerd~
The auditions wrap up about an hour later and Anna gathers her stuff to leave. She only had theater for the day and was ready to head home and take a nap.
"Anna care to join me for lunch again?" Elsa asks making the redhead stop in her tracks. She turns around and raises an eyebrow.
"My treat this time," Elsa smiles and Anna can't say no to free food. Who would? It's free food!
"Sure, same café as last?" She asks and Elsa nods. The walk there was silent, awkward silence for Anna, normal much needed silence for Elsa.
"It's a lovely day," Elsa says making Anna jump.
"Uh, yea, it's nice weather and there aren't much clouds in the sky," Anna says as she looks up. Her heart nearly rocketed out her chest when she felt cool and soft fingers brush the palm of her hand, pulling her a little off her step. She blinks and looks down to their now holding hands before looking to Elsa.
"Careful where you walk Anna," Elsa chuckles and tilts her head back. Anna follows her gesture and sees the pole she almost walked into. Nothing new, but it was nice not to do it for the nth time in her life.
When they reach the café Anna noticed that they were still holding hands. She quickly lets go and runs the hand through her bangs then down one of her braids as she clears her throat.
"Look our seat is open," she chuckles and goes to sit down. Elsa just hums and sits down. She was enjoying the hand holding, but if it made Anna uncomfortable then she guesses she won't do it again.
Like that would really stop you.
Her brain laughed and Elsa sighs. That was true; she liked making the girl blush and be flustered. It was a much better look than the uncaring and lazy attitude she had before the concert thing.
Elsa just hums as they order their food and drinks. Her brain was being inappropriate so she chose to be silent and just stare at the redhead. Anna looked really flushed and uncomfortable.
"Ok so the start of the show is sorted, what about the ice effects?" Anna asked as she fiddled with a napkin.
"Hm, I'll talk to some of the other faculty members, maybe get the engineer students involved," Elsa shrugs and rests her hand over Anna's, stilling her fidgeting. The redhead looked up to the blonde. Teal eyes looking slightly confused.
"Anna relax, leave everything to me, this is none of your worries," Elsa smiles.
"I know, I know, I just can't help thinking about these things," Anna sighs and slowly takes her hand away. Elsa bites her lip as their food and drinks arrive.
"Why not just focus on your role? Maybe practice some of the songs," Elsa suggests making the younger girl sigh.
"Yea, I can do that. I can practice some guitar on the songs and practice signing," Anna says. This makes her feel a little better. She worked best with a goal in mind.
"Good, because after the auditions we have to do songs to see who can and can't hit the notes. I know all of you can sing as a group, but solo singing is harder, you don't have others tunes to go on," Elsa explains before starting to eat. Anna does the same and silence falls around them once again. Only the sounds of a busy café filling their ears.
Elsa can't stop looking at the redhead and this was making Anna blush. Elsa couldn't help it, Anna was a very beautiful girl.
"Okay could you like stop staring at me? It's making me uncomfortable," Anna huffs as she looks down. Her bangs covering her eyes as her shoulders scrunched up.
"Ah, sorry I was lost in thought," Elsa chuckles and finishes her sandwich. Anna grumbles and downs the rest of her drink, careful of the ice this time.
"Do you have another class today?" Elsa asks and Anna tilts her head.
"No, why?" She questions.
"I'll take you home again, it's on my way to my place and I'm done for the day too," Elsa smiles. The redhead fidgets a little before sighing.
"Fine, that be really cool of you," she whispers and Elsa can't help but clap her hands together.
"Then it's settled," she smiles and gets up. Anna follows and waits for her outside as the blonde pays. The drive home was still silent. Anna didn't know what to say. What does one say to your teacher?
Oh hey yea remember that kind pet name but not a pet name you gave me? What's up with that?
"What's up with what?" Elsa asks as she spares a glance to the frowning redhead. Anna blinked and her eyes widened.
"Shit, did I say that out loud?" She doesn't need an answer but Elsa hums to her a yes.
"Ugh, just, what was up with that comment you made at class today?" Anna asks and Elsa tilts her head.
"I'm pretty sure I said it was a pet name and besides you are a redhead aren't you?" Elsa teases making Anna blush. Oh this was too easy.
"Well yea, but you refer to me as yours; I'm no one's property," Anna huffs making Elsa chuckle.
"Oh come now Anna don't take it so literal, you are my student aren't you? So in a way you are mine," Elsa says that last sentence with a hint of a purr. It sent a shiver down Anna's spine and she curses herself for being so damn gay.
"Besides your mother seems to think we're together," Elsa says as she gets out the car. Anna blinks and jumps at seeing they were already at her house.
"Good afternoon Miss Summers! I'm Elsa Arendelle, a pleasure to make your acquaintance!" Elsa calls as she waves to the woman that was working in the garden.
"Elsa, wait!" Anna shouts as she tries to get out the car, but the seatbelt has her trapped.
"Oh my, hello dear! You can call me Iduna, may I offer you some lemonade?" The smiling woman says and Elsa can't help but accept.
"What are you doing?" Anna huffs as she manages to remove herself from the car and jog up to where they were.
"I'm saying hi to your mother of course," Elsa smiles.
"Anna, don't be rude, she looks a lovely woman, a bit older than I thought but she looks decent," Iduna smiles and pours Elsa a glass of fresh lemonade.
"Thank you and I assure you I'm young at heart, how else am I to keep up with Anna over here?" Elsa chuckles. Anna just groans and pulls her hood over her face as her cheeks start to burn.
"Haha, yes, she can be a handful. You should have seen her as a little kid, come inside I have photos," Iduna smiles and Elsa perks up more.
"Oh, I would love to see them," she smiles and Anna lets out a noise that sounds like a dying whale. She grabs Elsa hand before she could enter the house.
"What are you doing?" She hisses and Elsa just smirks.
"Pretending to be your girlfriend, this could be fun and it's a great way to practice improve," Elsa whispers and Anan just gives her an 'are you crazy' look.
"Do this and I will give you extra credit," Elsa sings songs just low enough for Anna to hear.
"Ugh fine, but only because I need it," Anna huffs. She could never say no to extra credit. Elsa smiles happily and heads into the house to find Iduna already on the sofa with a photo album.
"Mom! Not those!" Anna says in horror as she dives for the book, but Iduna is so used to her daughter by now that she just lifts the album. Anna ends up splayed over her lap, groaning at having knocked her own wind out.
Elsa can't help but laugh as she sits down and Iduna places the album on Anna's back. All the girl does is whimper as she resides to her fate. Anna is a little taken off guard as she feels Elsa move her legs over her lap to hold. The redhead can only steady herself with her hands on the floor as she blushes.
"This was her first time having a bath all on her own without it being a fiasco; she really didn't like the concept of bathing to be clean when she would just get dirty again. Really now, each child must have gone through that phase," Iduna starts and Elsa squeals happily.
"Oh my look how cute she is! How did she get that dirty in the first place?" Elsa asks. Her hands gently stroking over Anna's calves, they were well formed and firm. The action made Anna shiver, she could feel Elsa's cool hands sooth her heating body.
"Oh this was the time we were living in Wales and she had gone to play with the sheep, found her eating grass and making sheep noises," Iduna says.
"I was five leave me alone," Anna whines.
"Hush, tables don't speak," Iduna says.
It takes all of Elsa's will power not to make a comment about that. Her brain was trying to laugh and be perverse at the same time. She bites her lip to stifle a laugh as her hands move to stroke the back of Anna's knees. She could feel the muscles stiffen at that.
Oh what's this?
"And here was her first time riding a bike and here is her first broken arm, her father really got a scolding that day," Iduna sighs and Elsa smiles.
"Still smiling I see. Does she ever stop smiling?" Elsa asks. Iduna gives her a smug smile.
"Mom, mom no, don't you dare," Anna starts saying but her mom thumps her with the one side of the album before flipping a few pages.
"Oh, oh my," Elsa says. She was staring at what looked like a thirteen year old Anna. Her wardrobe was mostly black and her make-up if one could call it that was very metal like and she was sneering into the photo.
"Mom, why?" Anna whines and Iduna just laughs.
"Really Anna, why the spawn of Satan look?" Elsa asks and Anna just sighs.
"It was a phase ok? We were living in Finland at the time okay? The crowed I was running in were all metal heads, it's also where I picked up the drums," Anna explains. She shivers as Elsa lets her finger tips stroke over her lower inner thigh, dipping just under the album and out of eyesight from the older Summers woman.
"Oh Elsa you must stay for dinner, Anna's father would love to meet you, it's not often that Anna brings home a decent girl," Iduna says and whacks Anna on the head again when she tries to object. Elsa just chuckles.
"I would love to meet him too; I can assure you I am way better than anyone else she could bring," Elsa smirks and starts tickling at Anna's hips making the girls convulse as she started laughing.
"No! Stop! This isn't fair!" Anna screams between her laughter. Iduna laughs and places the album to the side before joining in on the tickling. Anna is screaming from laughter as the other two woman chime in with their own laughs.
"What in the blue blazes is going on here?" A booming voice calls making them stop. Anna pants as she rolls off her attackers laps and crawls to her father. Her muscles were shaking and tears were running down her face.
"Dad they were going to tickle me to death!" She whines as her helps her up.
"Not my baby girl! You monsters!" He says and hugs her. Everyone enjoys a few more chuckles and giggles.
"Oh Agnarr dear, this is Elsa. The girl Anna refused to admit was her girlfriend, yesterday," Iduna smirks as she and Elsa walk over to the man.
"Hey I never said-" Anna got cut off by Elsa who pulled her into a hug, mushing her face into her chest.
"I have been trying to get her to admit that for a while now, but the girl is so stubborn," Elsa says before letting the flailing girl go. Anna pulled back and gasped for air before glaring at her teacher.
"She is a stubborn one. It is a pleasure to finally meet you Elsa," Agnarr says as he holds out his hand. Elsa grasps it firmly and shakes it.
"May I pour you something to drink Elsa? I assume you are of drinking age?" He says as he walks to his liquor cabinet.
"Oh you flatter sir, I am well into my 20's," Elsa smiles as she follows him.
"A glass of Merlot would do nicely, but next time we have dinner together let me bring a lovely Pinot noir," Elsa says and Agnarr looks impressed.
"A girl with class! Anna, do keep this one my dear girl!" He smiles and Anna groans as she drops onto the sofa. This could not get worse.

"So now I'm standing there, drenched in paint and all she says to me is to roll around on the canvas! How bazar is that? I swear my cousin is one of those beautiful minds people," Elsa chuckles as she finishes her story. Anna is shaking her head and her parents are laughing.
"I still can't believe Rapunzel is your cousin," Anna says as she takes the last sip of her soda. Seriously, Elsa is allowed to drink but she's not?
"Excuse me Elsa, but what is it that you do for a living?" Agnarr asks and Elsa smiles as she swirls the last bit of her wine in her glass.
"Theater mostly," she says and takes a sip.
"Is that how you and Anna met? Saw her in a play or something?" Iduna asks and Anna stiffens. Their story could unravel so fast right now.
"I wish, but no. The first time I saw Anna was at the café near the university. She came in and ordered sandwiches and a hot chocolate. Hot chocolate on one of the hottest days of the year!" Elsa laughs before sighing and looking into her almost empty glass.
"But I knew… Anna was something else. She was different from the others. So when the class for theater started that first day, she was already late. She rushed in and even in her out of breath and out of manners state I was still drawn to her. Like a moth to a flame and oh did she burn me," Elsa said as she looked to Anna over the rim of her glass.
"She wanted nothing to do with me, with anyone in that class, but she eventually conceded and we had lunch together a couple times. So in all fairness Mr. and Mrs. Summers, Anna and I are not official yet, but I hope to be pretty soon," Elsa smiled as she took the last sip of her wine. Her head was actually swimming nicely.
"Anna you better ask this girl to be official!" Iduna scolded her daughter. That was some of the most romantic things she's heard.
"It's okay Iduna, I want her to be sure, there is no rush," Elsa smiles as she placed down her glass.
"I'll sleep on it," Anna sighs and looks away. She didn't know if what Elsa said were true. The woman was an actor, what if she was just playing a part? Then again she had a few glasses of wine so maybe this was all true.
"I should get going, I don't want to overstay my welcome," Elsa said as she stood, but this made her head spin and she gripped the table.
"Maybe you should stay and have some coffee and cake," Iduna says as she stands as well and gently holds Elsa's arm. Elsa smiles and nods to her.
"That would be nice, I'm sorry for being tipsy, I haven't had that much to drink in a long while," Elsa chuckles.
"Ah, but it was so lovely to have someone to enjoy some wine with," Agnarr said as he sipped the last of his glass.
"That is because all your friends prefer whisky or scotch," Iduna giggled, "Anna dear would you take your lady friend to the sofa? I will take care of the dishes and start the coffee," she added and Anna nodded.
The redhead took Elsa's hand and led her to the living room. She had to admit this night wasn't all that bad, if you take away the embarrassing stories. Anna yelps as Elsa pulls her closer before they could sit down. She blushes as she's face to chest with the taller woman. Elsa pulls Anna into a hug as she rests her cheek on the shorter girls head.
"Anna, this was really lovely, I haven't had a family dinner in years," Elsa hums and makes them sway to the silence.
"Why is that? Your parents live in a different country or something?" Anna asks as she holds onto Elsa's hips to keep them standing.
"My parents died when I was 18," Elsa murmurs and even more silence surrounds them. Anna feels her heart lurch into her throat. She can't imagine not having her parents around.
"Elsa, I am so sorry to hear that," she whispers. Elsa pulls back slightly and holds Anna's face. Her delicate fingers massaging their way into Anna's hair.
"I told you Anna, I'm not perfect, nothing about my life is perfect," Elsa whispers and slowly pulls Anna closer. The redhead starts to panic as her eyes widen. She wasn't ready for them to kiss! She doesn't even know if she wants to kiss her teach-wait, what?
Elsa's lips were soft and cold as they pressed against her forehead, freckles even reaching up to there, faint, but there. Her bangs tickling the older woman's nose. Anna feels her breath hitch and her eyes close at the delicate show of affection.
Maybe this wasn't so bad after all.
I'm happy with how this turned out.
