A/N: Hi everyone. I'm sorry this update came in on Monday but I wanted to let you know that it is my intention to upload chapters every weekend and I will do my best to make sure this happens.

Also, I wanted to let you know that the fluff and romantic stuff will come, but it will take a while, although, Elsa and Anna are about to meet each other which is going to be great! So please, bear with me and thank you so much for having an interest for this story. I really appreciate the followers and people who have read this and I would also be very thankful of any reviews or comments you'd like to make. Please feel free to share your thoughts.

That being said, I don't own Frozen but I do hope you enjoy the story.

Elsa parked at her designated spot right next to the building's elevator and stepped into it and pushed the 23rd floor button. Her father had given her the Pent House of this brand new building at the time just over 6 months before, as a gift when she had gotten her MBA. The elevator went straight up, something she was grateful for because all she wanted to do was to be alone. She opened the door to her apartment and dropped her purse on the table at the entrance and hung her coat in the closet. She walked over to the kitchen and pulled a bottle out of her wine cooler, she figured she deserved it after what she had just done. She had turned her phone off the moment she got into her car so even if her father was trying to reach her, it wouldn't work. She wanted a few moments of peace and happiness before reality sunk in. She didn't even want to think about the consequences of her decision just yet. For now, all she wanted was a bubble bath with a bottle of her favorite wine and strawberries. She started filling her tub and then went back to the kitchen to grab the strawberries, rinsed them and put them on a plate, grabbed the bottle of White Zifandel and a glass and headed on to her en suite bathroom. The tub was almost full so she dropped in a bubble bomb and waited for the foam to cover the water. She placed the bottle, the glass and the strawberries close by and then stripped and stepped into the hot water. It was the perfect ending to a stressful day. She reached over to a series of buttons on the wall to turn on some relaxing music and then grabbed her cup, took a sip and leaned back. It was easy getting lost in the relaxing sensation of the bath, however, much as she tried not to think about it, anxiety started to creep into her mind. Had she done the right thing? She had always complied with what her father demanded so what would happen now? She had a pretty decent amount of money saved up but what was she supposed to do? Get a job? Invest in a new business? She drank some more wine and gave herself 30 minutes to enjoy the moment. Then, she knew she needed to talk to someone. Bay.

"Hi honey, how are you?" Bay's soft voice calmed Elsa down right away. She had freaked out at the number of voice and text messages she had from her father when she turned on the phone even though she didn't even check them. She had called her friend right away. Bay was a girl she had grown up with. Their parents made business together and the girls had grown up under very similar circumstances so it was easy to relate to one another.

"I'm not so sure, I actually need to talk to you about something…" Elsa said.

"I know…your dad called mine and he's been ranting about it. I tried calling you but I figured you needed a while to take it in."

"Of course he would do that…" Elsa said thinking about his dad.

"Do you want me to come over?"

"Yes, please." Elsa wasn't one to ask for help often but this was something she definitely needed to talk about and if there was one person who would understand, it would be Bay. She hung up feeling a bit calmer knowing that she was coming. She didn't even have to call security at the building's entrance because Bay's car was registered and she was there so often that she knew everyone's name and everyone knew to let her in. It was barely 20 minutes before the doorbell rang. Elsa opened it and welcomed the hug her brunette friend gave her.

"Oh Elsa…." Bay was the same height as Elsa but she was wearing high heels whereas Elsa had stayed barefoot after her bath so the brunette had to lean down a little to hug her.

"Come in," Elsa said and walked into the living room. Bay noticed she was wearing sweats. Elsa never wore sweats. They sat on the couch, face to face and Elsa pulled her legs under her.

"Well, tell me, what's going on inside that pretty head of yours?" Bay said as she pushed a wet lock of hair out of Elsa's face.

"I don't know Bay…did I do the right thing? Am I crazy? I mean…this is what we are meant to do, right? But why does it feel so wrong?" it wasn't common to hear Elsa speak a lot, much less ramble so Bay couldn't help but laugh a little. "What are you laughing about?" Elsa said suddenly annoyed at how her friend was reacting. She hit her on the shoulder.

"I'm sorry Els, it's just…you're always so composed and elegant and just completely in control of everything, it's nice to see you like this…"

"Like what? Worried that I made a terrible mistake?" Elsa wasn't in the mood for jokes.

"I'm sorry…I can only imagine what you're going through, but you know…you wouldn't be the first one to do something like this and succeed…I mean, look at my sister, she ran out on my dad and now she's got her own business going." They were both silent until Elsa figured out how to explain what was going on in her head.

"Yeah…I know, but still, it's like a part of me is absolutely happy, I don't think I've ever felt such freedom but then…this other part of me is terrified of what this means. Just because someone else made it doesn't mean I will be able to make it as well," Bay didn't know what to say. Her amber eyes stared deep into Elsa's ice blue ones.

"Isn't this what you've always wanted?" Bay offered.

"Yes…but now that I have it, I don't know what to do…" Elsa said as she turned to look at the snow falling harder than before outside the window.

"Isn't that the point?" Bay said smiling, "You can do anything now." Anything. The word vibrated inside Elsa's mind. She could. If she had gotten this far, there was nothing she couldn't do; she just needed some time to figure out what it was that she actually wanted but suddenly she knew that it didn't matter what it was, there was nothing to stop her. She smiled just a little but Bay noticed the change right away. She threw her arms around her friend and even though Elsa was not very fond of hugs, even from the people closest to her, she was thankful for this one.

"You're staying, right? I heard there's a storm coming." Elsa said as they let go of each other.

"Only if you're making me dinner," Bay joked knowing that Elsa would never cook for her.

"We can order something." The building was part of a complex that included a hotel with several restaurants so, storm or not, she could always ask to have a meal brought in. Even though she'd said it, Elsa felt like maybe, for this one time, it would have been a good idea to cook for her friend. It was a secret pleasure of hers and even though she had never shared it with anyone, she knew it might not be such a bad idea for occasions like this.

The girls had dinner and wine and after a while they headed for bed. Elsa was more than happy to have someone to keep her company that night. As they lay in bed talking, Elsa let herself relax and immerse herself in whatever Bay was talking about, forgetting about what she'd have to face the next day. "…so, she's having a party because she'll be opening her second shop in town and she's really excited about it and my dad, even though he won't say it, is so proud of how she started from scratch."

"That sounds nice…I'm glad she's been so successful. I've never been to her shop but I've heard it's amazing."

"It is, and people are going crazy about it, she's completely booked with orders for private events like weddings and birthday parties and all so I think it's great that she's expanding. Even though she absolutely loves her team of workers, it's just getting to be too much."

"So when's this party?" Elsa asked thinking a party would definitely help her take her mind off things. For the past couple of years she had been so invested in her father's company that she hadn't had a lot of opportunities to go out or relax and even though she wasn't the most sociable person, she liked parties because she would always have a good time watching people, getting lost in a crowd without anyone knowing her name or her face.

"This Friday, it all happened all of a sudden because, apparently she was looking for a bigger place where she could move the business to but just yesterday she found this amazing spot right outside Bartcreek Mall and she decided to turn it into the second shop so, as you can imagine, she's going crazy with the regular business and the preparation for the party but I'm sure it's going to be amazing. You have to be there." There was a lot of excitement in Bay's voice.

"Sounds good, count me in."

"Great!" With that matter settled they decided to get some sleep. Bay had to be at the headquarters of her father's emporium early the next morning.
