Elsa's weekly visits to Hans started to become a daily thing now. He was always on her mind. She was so confused and didn't know what to do. She had really strong feelings for Hans, but knew he had done bad things in the past. Did he really change or was he just trying to trick her and get her kingdom like he tried to trick Anna? A large part of her believed that he did change and had become a better person over the past eight months since he has been in the dungeon. Elsa didn't know if she should trust that part of her though because the other part of her knew the right thing to do for the kingdom was to keep her distance and stay away from Hans. She was sick of concealing her feelings. She did that for most of her life when she was trying to hide her powers and didn't want to do it anymore. She was tired of always doing to right thing for everyone else and she wanted to do something for herself for once, but she knew the being the queen of Arendelle made that a little difficult. Being a queen meant doing what was right for the people and if she followed her heart instead of listening to her brain, she knew she was no longer doing her job as a queen. Elsa has never felt like this for anyone though, there was something different about Hans. They had spent so much time together over the past month and he hasn't once asked her to let him free or asked her to do any favors for him. The conversations they have had between each other have just been about their families, lives, and their dreams.
Later that day, Elsa went down to the dungeon, or as Hans likes to call it Han's man cave, to see him. When she walked up to his cell her found him lying on his cot, looking up at the ceiling.
"Hey!" Elsa said. "I have a question for you"
"What's your question?" Hans responds.
"Why haven't you asked me to help you free or for anything?"
Hans had a confused look on his face. He didn't really know how to respond. He wasn't sure this was a test or if this Elsa asking as a friend, but he decided to just answer honestly.
"Well, it definitely has crossed my mind to ask you, but I personally don't think I deserve to ask you of anything. I have had a lot of time to think while I have been down here, and looking back at what I did to your sister, I am ashamed of all of my actions. My siblings were being really hard on me at that time and I felt like I had no purpose for my kingdom. I just wanted to prove that I could be a great ruler, but I let the power get to my head and went all crazy. I almost killed someone in the process and I don't think I could ever forgive myself for that. If anyone tried to do what I did to you and your sister to me, I would have him or her locked up in worse conditions for many years."
Elsa was expecting a different answer, but she liked this one a lot better. This made it even harder for her to decide on what she should do. Should she follow her heart and do something for herself for once, or should listen to what her brain is telling her and do what is best for her kingdom? At that moment she didn't really care though. She grabbed the keys to Hans's cell and unlocked the door. She walked toward Hans, who was very confused on what was happening, and kissed him. Hans was still very confused, but didn't mind it. He had developed feelings for Elsa as well, but never acted on those feelings because he thought that Elsa could never feel that way towards him.
After their passionate kiss, Elsa and Hans just sat in each other's arms and cuddled. They didn't say anything to each other because neither one of them know what to say. Elsa didn't want to leave the dungeon because she knew once she did, she would have to figure out what she wants to do.
