A/N: OK, I finally remember to do add this freaking Author's note... anyhow...

First of all THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH for such an awesome reception to this story! I love all of the lovely reviews I'm getting! To everyone saying this is an awesome story, YOU ARE AWESOME AND DESERVE HAPPINESS THAT I CANNOT GIVE TO YOU! YOU'RE ALL PERFECT! But if you ever have a piece of criticism please don't hesitate to mention it. I love that stuff too. x3

So to answer some your questions

Everyone: Yes I will definitely continue to post chapters. This is not going to be a long story though and I'm sorry for that. I think I'll have about 5 more chapters...

Guest: Colton is actually about to learn that Elsa has powers, but this chapter is in Elsa's POV. I probably won't rewrite the chapter in Colton's POV (unless you guys ask me to, but I'll only do the last scene). The next chapter will be Colton's reaction to it. And Colton's a nice and sympathetic guy, I don't think he would have blamed Anna for Elsa's freak out.

Desi-Pari: I'm sorry disappoint you love, but Colton actually won't be making any changes to the movie.

So, a little explanation.

This isn't their first reunion, they've been friends for a few years now.

I decided I wanted to jump straight to this chapter and skip the awkward salutations. I'll be making references to process of their meeting so your lovely minds can fill in the blanks. But just remember, Elsa is stubborn and very anxious around people... so I'm sure it took a few tries before she let him stick around (it would have been a long process and I didn't want to stretch it out).

A Princess in Blue

Elsa curled up in her blankets, pulling up the comforter to cover her mouth and nose against the warm Summer air. As she grew restless against the heat, the sheets continued to cool until she was comfortable enough to slip away into the safety of her unconscious mind.

But before sleep could fully cradle her restless mind, she heard the soft sound of metal scratching against painted wood. She curled into herself in the cool blankets, hoping to urge herself back to sleep despite her own paranoia.

But then the wood at the window made a familiar creek.

Elsa sprung up in her bed with a gasp and looked to the window sill to find a lean boy with auburn hair halfway through her window, poised to knock on the window frame.

"Colton! You scared me half to death!" Elsa hissed.

"Sorry… I was checking if you were asleep already."

"Do you know what time it is? You know if you're going to come this late you shouldn't have come…" Elsa commented, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes.

As per their agreement, Colton sat himself down at the windowsill. "We started working at sunset to avoid heat stroke down at the docks. This is the earliest I could sneak out. Speaking of heat…" Colton blushed uneasily "have you got any water?"

Elsa sighed and pulled away her cool sheets, slipped her feet into her too warm slippers –that didn't seem to cool as quickly as her sheets had –completely ignoring the small bumps forming on her chest as she got Colton some water.

Being a fourteen year old boy, Colton couldn't ignore them as an angry blush began to highlight his freckles. Elsa looked at him curiously as he stared at his knees with such intensity, but thought little of it as she cooled his water for him. "There." Elsa placed his glass next to his hip on the windowsill.

"Thanks…" Colton mumbled, keeping his hands firmly on his knees. "Um… you don't have your gloves on… or your robe…"

A horrified expression passed over Elsa's face as she was suddenly aware of how much bare skin she was showing before rushing to her robe. What if she had fallen? What if he had accidentally touched her? What if she had bumped his leg when she had placed his water? "S-sorry about that. I didn't notice…"

"It's fine… I did-"

Elsa turned her head sharply to look at him, an amused smile forming on her face. "Did your voice just… crack?"

Colton groaned and shoved his black woolen hat further down his forehead to cover his eyes and push his auburn hair against his cheeks. Elsa smiled at him fondly and waited, her index finger pressed against her smile. Eventually the pubescent boy pushed his hat away from his eye to look at her. "Yes…"

"It's fine… I still think it's cute," Elsa commented as she pulled on her gloves.

"Shut up…" he mumbled into his water, a blush still prominent on his forming cheekbones. Elsa giggled and sat down on the little cushion below the windowsill so she would have to look up at him.

"What? It means your growing doesn't it?" Even if his voice didn't jump after every few words anymore, he was visibly changing. He was taller than her again for one thing. His previously scrawny form was transformed by signs of lean muscle –toned by his work at the docks. And his round face was slowly forming soft angles.

"Yeah I guess… but still. I guess it's not the worst of my growing pains. I didn't think it'd hurt this much to get taller." Colton rolled his shoulders, his lean muscle moving around in his shirt. But Elsa barely noticed that.

"It hurts?" Elsa asked, honestly surprised.

"Yeah. I mean, your bones and muscles are stretching you know? So everything's stiffening up too."

"Huh, I never thought of it that way… I remember how happy you were when you first started puberty. You were so proud and you were bragging about everything." And Elsa really did. She remembers the snowballs with little his little notes inside. My voice got deeper! I grew a whole inch! I got my first hair! As gross as some of his messages were, she couldn't help but smile while he beamed up at her. When she finally allowed him to scale the wall to reach her window again, she was surprised by how much he had grown in that year.

Colton smirked. "Yeah… I do too. Heh… um. Sorry about that though. Some of those messages must have been… a little weird to get."

"Oh, no it's fine. It was nice to see you that happy," she added, unconsciously brushing an imaginary lock of hair behind her ear.

There it was. That smile again. That little admiring smile he gave her. He wasn't looking at her anymore… he was looking past her. His mind somewhere else, somewhere she tried not to acknowledge.

She looked away from him and looked at the ground. "So…" Elsa started in order to break the silence. Colton sighed, dejected, his gaze moving to his previous spot just past the gate. The spot where he would wait for her to finally open her window. "Do… you have any stories to tell me?"

Colton breathed a laugh, to Elsa's relief. "Of course I do. What kind of friend would I be if I left you storyless?"

Elsa smiled and wrapped her arms around her knees in anticipation. Once Colton realized that she really never left the castle walls –he rarely asked why anymore –he tells her the stories of her future people… and of the lands across the sea. But she preferred the stories of her people. She loved hearing about their lives. She loved knowing that most of them were happy and warm in beds at night. She loved knowing that Margret was finally starting to read. That James had finally asked Jessie to marry him. That the crops were growing so well this year that Gregory the farmer had decided to have another child. She loved hearing that Colton's dog had had 8 beautiful puppies… although she was saddened to know that they couldn't all just stay with their mother. But Colton assured her that he checked on them frequently to know that they were well and happy.

"Hey, hey, wake up. Elsa… Elsa, wake up."

Elsa drowsily nuzzled against a patch of rough fabric while Colton gently shook her awake. Already comfortable, she merely turned her head into his side and gripped onto his shirt while she enjoyed his warm hand against her cold skin. …Against… her cold… skin.

Suddenly realizing that her robe had slipped off of her shoulder somehow Elsa woke with a start. What was she thinking? Falling asleep like that. What if he knew something? What if she accidently froze him while she slept? In her panic, a shot of cold escaped her gloves and froze part of Colton's shirt with enough force that it pushed him off of the windowsill.

He was falling

"Colton!"

Anna!

Not knowing what else to do, Elsa sprayed a mound snow all over the ground as she watched him fall… as she watched him look up at her in fear.

And then the snow swallowed him.

Heart pounding, Elsa searched for any sign of movement in the misplaced snow. "Colton? Colton?" she called down.

Nothing moved.

All she saw was a mound of her guilt.

Ice began to quickly spread from her hands, across the windowsill, across the cushion at her knees, across her floor, up her wall, and down the outer wall. She began to cry. She began to panic. She couldn't remember her mantra to make it stop. Not now. All she could think about was the fear on his face.

Finally, the snow began to stir.

Colton crawled out of the snow bank and onto the cobblestone, shivering. Shivering in the middle of Summer.

He looked up at her window in disbelief.

Elsa slammed her window shut and jumped under the covers. She shut her eyes and finally remembered her father's mantra. Conceal it. Don't feel it. Don't let it show. But despite her father's reassurance, she felt the air around her cool, and ice start to form below her.

And then there was the familiar sound of snowballs hitting her window.

Ptfsh

The ice spread.

Pffsh

The ice spread.

Ptfffsh

The ice spread.

Ptffsh

"Please… just leave…" Elsa whispered. For she found it very difficult not to feel while bombarded her heart with her own snow.

But eventually the snowballs stopped.

It was silent.

He had finally given up and left her.

She could sleep in peace now.

But for some reason, it kept getting colder.

A/N: So yeah that happened. I will be posting the next chapter within the next week. Definitely by the 26th.

So yes our outspoken little Colton has grown up to be more reserved and more soft spoken. He's still going to be a determined and persistent guy, but the thought of losing her has him on a short leash. At the moment he just wanted to make sure he could stay by her side. So that's basically going to be the next chapter.
