After a night of tossing and turning, Anna roughly woke up at 8am. It wasn't everyday that the strawberry blonde would wake up so early. Usually she'd wake up around 11 or 12pm, but never at 2 or 3 pm the way Elsa did.
Elsa…
Last night was very...interesting to say the least. With open arms, she agreed to let Anna spend the next 2 weeks in her house. Not to mention she practically gave me a hickey! And when she sung. Oh god it made Anna melt. Elsa's voice is soft and comforting, light like an angel. Getting out of bed, Anna stopped by the bathroom to check herself in the mirror. And sure enough, a little bite mark sat on her freckled neck.
Grrr you should of kissed me instead
Gargling with some Listerine, since she did not have a toothbrush, Anna left the bathroom and walked into the living room to check on the blue eyed goddess.
Blue eyed goddess? Jesus...
Anyways, Anna was surprised to find Elsa up. She sat on the couch, knees to her chest and picking at her toes. She failed to notice Anna intrusion. She walked to the couch and sat down.
"Elsa? You okay…?"
Cautiously, Anna placed a gentle hand on Elsa's back, startling her out of her thoughts. The sight of the older woman almost broke her heart. Her eyes were red and puffy and her pale cheeks were stained with tears. Anna wanted to ask, but she was afraid Elsa would only break out into a fit of sobs. She's never seen Elsa cry and today was not the day she would, or at least she hoped.
"Good morning. Would you like some pancakes?" Anna asked softly, flashing her a gentle smile.
Elsa didn't reply, but returned the smile and wipe her face with her hands. But who knew the strawberry blonde could cook? Not Elsa that's for sure. Despite being so clumsy and lazy, Anna whipped out ingredients Elsa didn't even know she owned in her kitchen. She's cute, smart and she can cook? This girl needs to marry me! Anna made blueberry pancakes with eggs and bacon. The older woman watched attentively while she cook and hummed to herself. She was forced to look away when Anna flashed her a smile and presented her, her breakfast.
"Oh my god, those pancakes were sooo good!" Patting her tummy, Elsa sipped at her orange juice and sighed in content. "Those were like orgasm pancakes I swear. I haven't eaten that good in like forever!" Anna chuckled and placed her empty plate on top of Elsa's.
"So it's the first time in forever?"
"You betcha ginger."
After stretching a bit, the platinum blonde grabbed the plates and dumped them in the sink. She walked back to the couch and plopped right beside Anna. "Did anyone ever tell you, you have such beautiful hair?" Anna couldn't help herself. She had to touch her hair. And oh my jesus was it soft. It felt like silk as it slipped through her fingers. No knots. No napps. No nothing. Elsa began to blush. Every night, she lets her hair out of its braid and leaves it lose. However she didn't expect Anna to be up so early, so she didn't have time to put it up. Why was she up so early anyways?
"Hey Anna?"
"Hmmm?" Anna was too busy burying her hands in Elsa's silky locks to actually respond.
"Why were you up so early?" Now that caught Anna off guard. She removed her hands from Elsa's hair, receiving a groan of displeasure from the woman. What could she say? I mean, she didn't even know why she was up so early. She didn't even get to respond before Elsa answered her own question.
"Sleepover jitters?"
"Uhm...yeah...yeah you could say that."
"Uhm Anna don't take this to offense 'cause I like being around you and I like it even more that you're gonna spend the next few days-
"Weeks actually…"
"Weeks, but anyways uhm...w-why didn't you just ya know...ask your parents if you could stay with them? N-Not that I don't want you here it's just that uhm w-wouldn't they be worried to know you're here with...with a stranger?"
"You're not a stranger!"
Anna chuckled behind her hand. She placed her hand on top of Elsa's and gave it a little squeeze. Despite how much she hated to talk about it, Elsa was only curious and she felt she deserved to know. Anna's past isn't exactly a normal one. You see, her parents died when she was only a year old. An electrical fire sparked from a broken outlet and burned down their tiny one story house, with Anna and both her parents inside. When the firefighters arrived the house had already burned to the ground. There were no survivors, except for a tiny Anna sitting behind the couch, her left shoulder severely burned. The doctors had no idea how she had managed to leave her crib and protect herself from the roaring flames.
With no immediate family that the social workers could get in contact with, Anna was placed into an orphanage where she never got adopted. Going in and out of foster care, she was always removed from either neglect or abuse. Only one family, a man named Kai and a woman named Gerda, actually loved Anna. They had no kids of their own so they looked towards adoption. Sadly, with Anna only being 5 years old, they were too old (around 65) to actually take in a child that young. Heart broken, Kai and Gerda would still come by the orphanage to pay the strawberry blonde a visit, until one day they didn't show up. Week after week Anna waited patiently for them to come back. Kai with his big belly and heartful laugh and Gerda with her gentle smile and warm hugs. At 10, Anna gave up on them. It had been a year since they last visited and it seemed they weren't going to show. At age 12, a man approached Anna at school right after she was dismissed. He looked familiar, but then again he didn't. She squinted her eyes and realized who it was.
Running with all her might and tripping slightly, she stopped in front of the man. Eyebrows furrowed and lips pursed, Anna realized it in fact was not who she thought he was, Kai. The man resembled Kai except he was a bit slimmer and had chestnut brown hair. He introduced himself as Mikhail, Kai's younger brother. With sadness and grief in his eyes, he knelt and placed a hand on her shoulder. As much as Anna shook and cried, claiming he was lying, it was true. Mikhail broke the news Anna had been unaware of for the past 3 years. Kai died of a massive heart attack and 6 months later Gerda died as well. No one knew how she died. Some say it was of a broken heart. Since Anna was not part of their family, she was not informed.
After that day, Anna changed. She began to cut herself and skip school. She felt she had no one. her parents died when she was younger and now Kai and Gerda. They meant the world to her. After a suicide attempt at 15, she was admitted to a psychiatric ward and when the doctors asked why? She simply stated, "I have no family. No one would miss me." Anna spent 4 months into the hospital and was sent back to the orphanage on anti-depressant. That sophomore year, she met Rapunzel and Jasmine. They all seemed to scared to play dodgeball with the other kids and hid in the supply room. Since then, they've been inseparable. Since then, Anna learned to smile again. She had hope.
Anna didn't have to tell Elsa her entire life story, but once she started she couldn't stop. Its been 4 years since she's told anyone that tale. It felt good to let it out. What broke Elsa's heart the most was that Anna sat there smiling, she didn't cry or even stutter. She saw the sadness within her eyes yet it did not falter the smile plastered on her freckled face.
"How could you smile throughout all of this?" Elsa asked her own tears threatening to fall.
"Because why be sad when you can smile?" Was all she said. Anna was a strong girl. She went through all this yet she didn't let it break her.
"C-Can I see your scar?" Elsa timidly asked, tripping over her words.
"Sure!" Anna lifted her left sleeve and presented to Elsa a giant pinkish scar that took up half of her shoulder and some of her collar bone.
"It used to be wayyy bigger, but as I grew older it shrunk!" Anna just continued to smile. "Now I have a question for you...i-if you don't mind me asking…" She pulled her shirt down and picked at her nails. She was curious, but wasn't sure if her question would anger the older woman.
"Go ahead…"
"W-Well...uhm...h-how did your mother pass?"
