1 in the morning. Who in their right mind is wide awake at one in the morning? On a Wednesday for goodness sake! Jack lay in Elsa's bed, eyes wide open as the blonde flopped onto her back, snoring away as if a lawn mower were running in the room. He turned his head to the side, noticing a line of drool running down Elsa's chin. If it weren't for her being absolutely gorgeous, he would been out of that room like the Roadrunner being chased by Wylie Coyote. He pulled the pillow over his head, muffling some of the vibrations coming from Elsa's throat. And for a moment, it stopped. She let out a snort, rolling onto her side. Jack removed the pillow from his head and was met with a smack to the face by Elsa's hand.

You're lucky you're really adorable when you're asleep. Jack thought as he pushed the blonde's bangs back behind her ear.

"Mm," Elsa softly moaned, readjusting herself on the mattress. "Your hair..smells like marsh..mallows."

"What the.." He whispered. "Elsa, are you awake."

"I can..bake. I'll bake you..a pie.." She happily yawned, still dead asleep.

"Oh this could be fun," Jack smiled as he formulated a conversation in his head. "Elsa, I love you."

"Too...you.."

"Goodnight, snowflake," Jack kissed her on the hand, wrapping it around the "Anna" doll which sat above Elsa's head.

"G'nighttt..."

-beeep beeeep beeep-

Elsa's alarm went off at seven-thirty sharp. She sat up in her bed, stretching her arms out as she let out an enormous yawn, smacking her lips as she swung herself out of bed, the other side empty. She didn't take notice of it until she began to walk down the staircase, wrapping a hanging blanket around her arms, smelling the most fantastic smell she had ever smelled; pancakes. And not just any pancakes. Chocolate chip pancakes.

"Jack?" She yawned, pulling the blanket around her tighter. "Brr."

"Ah good, you're awake." HE smiled, still in his pajamas. "Sorry, but the heat won't be on until later today." he replied, flipping a few pancakes on the electric griddle on the floor of the kitchen. "Stove will be here today, as well as the fridge and dishwasher. Lots of necessary things coming out way today."

"I assure you I won't freeze to death," Elsa smiled, her stomach growling. "But I am, however, really hungry."

"Even after all that food we downed last night? You're a champ."

"Never once got sick, either." Elsa winked, taking a seat near the griddle.

"Careful, you might burn yourself if you get too close."

"I won't hurt myself." Elsa stuck her tongue out. "I'm not a delicate flower."

"But you will get burnt if you touch it." Jack tapped the end of the spatula on Elsa's head. "And getting burnt hurts."

"Yeah, yeah. Less talking, more pancakes."

"Keep your socks on, they'll be done in a minute. There's no syrup."

"That's fine, I'll eat them plain."

"We will have syrup tomorrow, I can assure you that." Jack replied, plopping the done pancakes onto a paper plate. "Now milady, take whichever ones you want and take a shower. We've got a LOT of work to do today."

"Does that include going to Ikea? I've heard horror stories from couples that didn't survive five minutes inside of an Ikea store." Elsa said, taking a bite of pancake.

"It's the cheapest place to get furniture. Besides," Jack smiled. "They've got soft serve and Swedish Meatballs."

"Okay, Ikea. What's next?"

"Off to Mund and Tanya's house to get my movie, game and CD collection."

"We're going to have quite the collection of movies and music," Elsa chuckled. "Anna is coming up this weekend with my car to bring my things."

"If she's coming over, we should probably get a bigger fridge," Jack nervously laughed. "And maybe a toaster."

"You can't go wrong with a toaster, especially for the abundance of poptarts you've accumulated in that tiny fridge." Elsa giggled, taking another bite of pancake. "I'm gonna shower," She said, tossing the paper plate into a nearby trashcan.

"You can use my apple shampoo."

"You use apple shampoo?" Elsa snorted.

"Haha, laugh it up, blondie." Jack rolled his eyes, bringing the electric griddle over to the sink. "towels are in the lower cabinet under the sink. Yours are purple, just for the record."

"Be out in a few." Elsa smiled, blowing him a kiss.

"Anna, are you all packed for Maine?" Idunn asked as she stood in the doorway of Anna's room.

"Yeah," Anna replied, wiping her brow. "She sure has a TON of stuff in her dorm. I imagine the place they have is big enough for everything she owns." She said, stacking Elsa's packed boxes on top of one another to the side of her room. "It's really weird not having her around."

"It is, isn't it?" Idunn replied, taking a seat on Anna's bed. "Are you sure you don't want me going with you?"

"Mother, I'm a big girl," Anna smiled. "I'll take the train home. I've got plenty of pepper spray and Tae Kwon Do under my belt. Besides, I don't leave until Friday morning."

"I know, elske," Idunn replied. "But you're still seventeen. I worry about you."

"The only one you should worry about is papa," Anna said. "I'm starting to think he's regretting what he said to Elsa."

"He has, alright. We just have to give those two time until they can come together and talk things over." Idunn sighed, helping Anna tape the last two boxes up.

"Mor?"

"Yes, sweetie?"

"Do you think Elsa and Jack will get married?"

"You never know, they might." Idunn smiled, mussing Anna's hair.

"Never. Again." Elsa growled, crossing her arms over her chest.

"You've got that right," Jack replied, handing over his container of Swedish meatballs to Elsa. "Never again will we risk our relationship for a trip to Ikea."

"Salt shakers," Elsa said. "We fought over SALT SHAKERS." Elsa took the container and popped a meatball in her mouth.

"Lesson learned, that's for sure," Jack replied. "Well now that's out of the way, FINALLY, how about we go to BJ's and get some grub for the next few days?" He asked, turning off of the freeway.

"If you promise that I can cook the entire time my sister is here, we've got a deal." Elsa winked.

"You sure you won't be too tired from orientation to do that?"

"Of course not," Elsa giggled. "I need all the practice I can get for when that piece of property gets put on the market."

"For the bakery."

"For OUR bakery. That's been our dream ever since high school," Elsa reminded Jack. "Speaking of high school, do you remember when we first started dating?"

"You know what, I do," Jack replied. "But technically, we didn't start dating until after that ridiculous holiday party my aunt and uncle dragged me to."

"That's right!" Elsa exclaimed. "And I accidentally spilled grape juice on your shoes. Your face was so red that night, but I'm sure it wasn't from the grape juice."

"I'm sure it was locking eyes with your icy blue irises." Jack smiled, pulling into the grocery store parking lot. "It's funny how those things happen." Jack parked in a spot close to the doors, looking over to Elsa as she looked down at her knees, biting her lip. "You okay?"

"Mhm. It's just that my father would be..I don't know.. He's still really upset about me refusing to take over his company."

"You should talk to him, Els." Jack said, turning off the car. "I mean, not now, but eventually you two have to straighten things out."

"I know, I know. He just doesn't understand that this isn't the seventies anymore, let alone the 1800's. You can't just marry off your daughter and expect her to run an entire business of foreign trade." Elsa sighed. "It's just so frustrating, ya know?"

"I don't, but I can tell it's making you pretty steamed."

"I must sound like a broken record." She softly laughed. "I'm sorry, won't do that again."

"No, no. I think we should still talk about it. Maybe not at the moment, but maybe over dinner tonight? And this time we actually go out somewhere nice?"

"That sounds...OH. FAEN!" Elsa exclaimed, smacking her hands to her knees.

"What?" Jack asked, slightly startled.

"I have nothing nice to wear! I left EVERYTHING, and I mean EVERYTHING in my dorm!"

"Woah, woah!" Jack said. "I'll take you to the mall right after we go shopping, alright? Calm yourself," He said placing his hand on hers.

"Mmhm.." Elsa nodded, unbuckling her seat belt, opening the passenger door. "Why not drop me off so I can go pick something out? The fridge is coming today, right?"

"Between two and four." Jack replied, grabbing a cart. "Plenty of time to shop, it's only ten."

"Even if I want it to be a surprise?"

"Fine," Jack smiled. "But first, we shop for food."

"Did we really need pizza rolls?" Jack asked, second guessing Elsa's choices of groceries they bought.

"Anna loves them," Elsa stuck her tongue out. "And I..tend to fancy the pepperoni ones once in a while."

"You two are garbage disposals," Jack laughed.

"We are indeed, Jack." Elsa siggled, Jack pulling into the mall parking lot.

"Okay, here's the plan. You've got three hours to pick something to wear tonight you feel most suitable to wear on a date. I'll come get you once the fridge and stove comes, then I'll bring you home, we get ready and we'll be on our way. Sound like a plan?"

Elsa gave him the thumbs up as Jack came to a complete stop, bolting from the passenger seat as she clutched her blue handbag, waving goodbye as she slowed herself down, opening the door to one of her favorite department stores: If/Then. Elsa knew EXACTLY where to go and what to get for this special night. She went straigh to the misses department to where the fancy, yet affordable dresses hung. Choosing a strapless black rosy-laced a-line dress, a mint green shoulder sleeved thigh length dress, and a maroon halter dress with a flared skirt.

Finding herself a fitting room, she tried on every single one of the dresses. First, the black lacy dress. "Nope, WAY too short." Elsa sighed, pulling the dress off and popping on the mint dress. She smiled, twirling in the mirror, until she looked at the back, the space wide open between her shoulders and hips. "Oh, heavens above Norway, NO." And lastly, the maroon dress. She tied the necks-strings together, flaring out the skirt of the dress. She twirled around in the mirror, the skirt floating high, but low enough to not wear a slip underneath. She smiled, biting her lip as she looked at the price tag. "$40? Ooh..a bit steep.." then she looked at herself again, her cheeks aglow. "Well...i can splurge a little, right?"

"Heeeey Jack." Jack's friend Kristoff said, his truck with the new fridge and stove pulled up in his driveway.

"Hey Kris, that was fast." Jack said, munching on last night's chow mein.

"Yeah, finished the previous delivery a bit early so I thought I'd bring them over. Elsa here yet?" Kristoff asked as Jack tossed him a fortune cookie.

"Yeah, she got here last night. She's at the mall after a freakout of a lack of "nice" clothing." Jack said, shaking his head.

"You gonna ask her tonight?"

"Yeah," Jack smiled. "M-maybe. I really don't know. It might be too early?"

"You know she's gonna say yes, Jack." Kristoff replied, cracking open the fortune cookie and handing the small piece of paper to Jack. "It's still good, I haven't read it."

"You will find happiness the next time you see the one who adores you." Jack read. "Kris, the fortune cookie is a bit late."

-buzz buzz-

"Elsa?"

"Jack, I'm ready to come home now. Wow, it sounds so weird to call this home." Elsa smiled on the other side of the line.

"Be there soon," Jack said. "Love you."

"Love you."

"Well, I trust you in MY my house, just don't break anything."

"You have nothing to break, what are you talking about?" Kristoff chuckled as Jack grabed the car keys, unlocking the car door.

"Just don't misplace anything. Elsa has eyes like a hawk and a memory like a camera."

"So, you found a dress, huh?" Jack asked as Elsa climbed into the car, closing the door and clutching the black bag against her chest.

"Mhm. You can't see it until we get into the restaurant..or wherever you planed for us to go."

"You'll just have to wait and see." Jack smiled, leaning in to give Elsa a kiss. "Shall we?"

"We shall." Elsa smiled.

Later that Evening

-riiiimg riiiiing-

"Anna?" Elsa asked as she placed her sister on speakerphone.

"Heeeeeeey you!" Anna exclaimed. "So...how was last night?"

"Anna, we didn't-"

"Nah, I'm just kidding. So...I hear you have a date tonight."

"I do- hey! How do you know?!"

"A little birdie told me."

"And this birdie tell you that you're a snoop?"

"No.." Anna smiled over the phone. "But your date is gonna be really fuunnn!"

"Your enthusiasm makes me question whether I should share things with you."]

"Come on, sis!"

"Kidding, Anna." Elsa paused. "A-Anna?"

"Yep?"

"Thank you...I found the container in the bathroom drawer."

"Don't mention it. It sucks to have irregular-"

"ANNA HE SLEPT IN MY BED LAST NIGHT." Elsa blurted as she pinned her bun.

"Wait..wait what?! He did?! Elsa...did you two..?

"Ohhh geez, why did that come out.."

"Elsa?!"

"No! We..Of course not!" Elsa defended herself.

"Geez, give me a heart attack. I know you're an adult but don't scare me like that! Not exactly ready to become "Aunt Anna" yet."

"Sorry. It...it was just temporary. That couch was atrocious."

"Well...as long as you weren't being...you know."

"Yes, mother." Elsa rolled her eyes. "Hey, I gotta go. We're leaving soon. Love you."

"Love you too." Anna replied. "Oh, and Elsa?"

"Hm?"

"Have fun tonight."

"I will. Bye Anna." Elsa smiled, hanging up. She took a deep breath and looked at herself in the mirror, brushing her lips with a faint red gloss. "Let's do this."

"Mund I'm going to do it." Jack said as he held the phone over his ear.

"After all these years, you're finally going to ask her?" Mund asked in his Australian accent.

"I am. I'm finally going to ask Elsa to marry me."
