Thoughts

Elsa's POV

I woke up in the morning, feeling surprisingly fresh. I had this weird dream of Jack coming into my room last night, and we talked. I glanced around my room and gasped. The person on my couch scared me. Partly because of his presence, but mostly because that meant, last night wasn't a dream. I tugged up in my sheets, though I wore a nightgown. My gasp and tugging must have woken him, because after a few moments, bright, but tired blue eyes rested on me.

"What's the noise for, Snowflake? I'm trying to sleep." He said, yawning over the arm rest.

"Excuse me, but you're in my chambers… At night…" I said, eyes widening as I realized it myself.

"So…? I've been here all your life, remember?" He stretched a bit before flattening out over all of the couch.

"Yes, but now, I can actually see you!"

"Much of a difference."

"I mean it! Now get out! I must prepare myself." I said, slowly moving in my bed, making sure, I was covered by the sheets.

"Am I allowed to come back afterwards?" he asked, smiling at me. I glanced cooled at him.

"I don't see any meaning in doing such. I have tons of work to do, and three meetings in the afternoon." I said, my voice just as cold as my expression. He smiled at me.

"Then I'll return tonight. But if you should ever miss me, I'll be around in Arendelle." I rolled my eyes.

As If I had time to even set my mind on Jack today. He slowly rose from the couch, with a yawn and a stretch. He grabbed his staff and walked towards the balcony. I followed him out, still covered by my sheets.

"See ya, Snowflake." He said, just before he got carried away by the wind, in its literal form. I shook my head, and got up from the bed, preparing myself for a long hardworking day.

Jack's POV

As I flew off the balcony, I glanced back, just one time, to look at her. She stood there on the balcony, all queen-like. Straight up, hand gently folded, resting against her body. I swear to god, she was beautiful, standing there in all her morning glory, with the sun lighting up her platinum blond hair. Even with the crystal blue sheets roughly wrapped around her, she still looked like she wore the prettiest dress in the world. I turned away from her, and continued out through the kingdom, until I found the one place I could ever go to. There was a tiny clearing on a mountainside. And in that clearing, was a pond. I often sat by that pond, freezing the surface, whenever I needed to get out my kept feelings or emotions. Today was no exception. Elsa had the grip on me. I was so amazed by her. I have to protect her, it's my duty, but at ther same time… My feelings for her have grown along with her growing up. She's changed so much since she froze everything, and the beautiful and strong, young woman she is today, has made me realize my true feelings for her. But… I'm… I'm nobody, and…

Maybe… Maybe I should just go… Leave her be. It clearly seems she doesn't like me anyway.

But I can't leave her. Not do I have to protect her, like I've done all her life, but… I love her as well. If only I could… But I can't… It'll never go… She'll grow old, and I'll stay like this, and someday I'll lose her to the ages. But it could work, just for a couple of decades… But…

Who are you anyway? She's got dozens of suitors waiting for her acquaintance, and I'm just… me. I could never go against that… How could I ever be able to give her what a prince can?

I didn't realize that the pond had grown several inches more than usual. I should try and keep it down an arch. but I just couldn't. These sort feelings… They have never been so strong. It was so weird. Maybe I should ask the other guardians of their opinion. They might even be able to help me out with this.

I tried my best to thaw every inch of the pond before leaving. I made sure the pond was again liquid, as I left for my home, the headquarters of the guardians.

Elsa's POV

Finally I finished those boring papers! Next up was the three meetings. I couldn't stand it. The responsibility of being queen was so exhausting. I envied Anna for her way more simple life. All she should do was to be royal at the balls, and attend to some of the meetings. She had love to fill out her day. She had all I wished I had. A life of less responsibilities and more leisure time to be myself.

My mind let itself go on the way to the meeting, and despite what I said this morning, I ended up thinking of Jack. How dared he to stay in my chambers all night? Never have I… but at the same time, it was quite nice, knowing he was only there to protect me. Though, I've never known he was there, he was. I couldn't believe there actually was another person, besides Anna of course, that cared that much for me that he would protect me all twenty-four hours a day.

Who was he to protect that way? Couldn't he at least have stayed outside the balcony or something? At least he hadn't tugged himself up beside me. That would have been way too awkward.

What was he protecting me from anyway? The conversation from yesterday popped up in my head. he couldn't say it to me. He had to consult with 'the other guardians'. I couldn't even believe that all fo this actually was real. Yet…

I felt that at least one thing was real… I didn't like to admit, but my growing feelings for Jack semmed very real indeed.

I was snapped out of my thoughts the moment I by mistake bumped into Kai.

"Your Majesty, I'm so sorry. but I'm here to escort you to the meeting. They're about to start without you." I shook my head.

"How dare they do that without the presence of the queen?" Kai shrugged.

"I have no idea, your Majesty." He led me towards the grand hall, which I, apparently, had walked the opposite way.

No, you mustn't think of him that way. It'll never work anyway.
