As it turned out, Anna hadn't planned much of anything else besides dragging the queen out of her study.
"So...do you wanna build a snowman?" Anna asked cheerfully.
Elsa arched her brow. "I thought you wanted it to just be us this week? My snowmen have a habit of coming to life."
Anna laughed nervously. "I did, I mean, I do! But... I don't know what we're supposed to do all week... I'm out of ideas."
"The great Anna of Arendelle is out of ideas?" Elsa teased.
Anna blushed. She loved the way Elsa said her name. After not hearing it at all for so long it sent flutters through her stomach.
Happy flutters, not...romantic? Of course, that would be ridiculous."Why don't we explore?" she suggested.
"You don't have a great track record wandering around here," the ice queen replied warily.
"I know, but now you're here. I could never be lost as long as I'm with you."
Elsa felt her cheeks warm slightly at the earnest way Anna looked at her. It had been startling to see her sister that first time. Where she'd left a little girl had suddenly stood a young woman.
"So let's go exploring!" Anna shouted excitedly, grabbing her sister by her slender wrist and dragging her out the massive ice doors.
Anna was a woman, yes, but she was also the same little girl Elsa had left behind all those years ago. She would always be the little girl that craved adventure and looked to her big sister for guidance.
Which is exactly why I shouldn't be feeling this way... Conceal, don't feel.
