Chibi-Aibou-Midna: Well, we are still waiting, but you'll find it sooner or later. :) And yeah, that was supposed to be one of the cuter chapters.

junbug515: Yeah, whenever I write a character's thoughts or words, I try to imagine them saying it. Doesn't sound good, DELETE! And thanks! :D

Brook Uchiha Daughter of Zeus: I know, I am evil. *evil laughter*

N1kk1 Starlet: I think everyone probably has a few guesses, so I'm sure one of yours is pretty close. Haha~ And don't die!

BlacktwinWhitetwin: It's fine. I just appreciate that you did review at all! :) And I know, I am so horrible to Jack. :( And naturally things will get better!

Anynonymous: Um... I am not allowed to reveal that information. But yeah, more or less.

CFMRDP: Thank you for applauding my awesome writing! *bows* And I present, Chapter 10!

K-chan's Kisses: Um, I wouldn't necessarily say "unqueenly" thoughts. But they aren't exactly the most regal. *blushes*

darth jennab: If I do make Elsa stop believing, it won't be permanent! And thank you. And it's okay.

darth jennab: (part 2) Stop reading my mind! Gah! And I like the fluffiness too. :)

Sunlight reflected off the ice coating the trees, adding a magical feel to the special place. Several feet away from where Elsa stood was a frozen lake, sparkling in the rays of the sun. A warm feeling filled the queen's heart as she walked around, trailing her hand along the trees as she went. Everything about the place seemed ethereal with the ice and snow, and the magic only increased with every step the young woman took. "Jack, can I ask you a somewhat personal question?" she inquired, barely able to take her eyes off the beautiful surroundings.

Looking somewhat nervous, Jack nodded and walked over to where Elsa was standing. Although he had agreed to let Elsa ask the question, she couldn't help but notice how nervous he seemed. His blue eyes flickered between the queen and the lake furiously as a light pink blush began to form on his pale cheeks. Elsa suppressed a chuckle at the nerves such an ancient being was feeling over one little question. "Perhaps my choice of words was a bit misleading," she thought, reaching out to hold the spirit's hand.

"How did you become Jack Frost in the first place?" she asked softly, lifting her turquoise eyes to peer into the spirit's cerulean ones. The nervousness was replaced with shock and he tilted his head to the side curiously, possibly wondering why Elsa had asked such a question. The look Jack had given her caused the young queen to blush furiously, and she turned her head to the side to avoid his direct gaze.

After a few seconds, the shock seemed to have worn off and the spirit was able to answer. His voice sounded somewhat choked, as though the memories of his long lifetime were extremely painful for him to talk about. "It was about three hundred years ago," he began, looking over at the iced over lake with a wistful glance. After a short pause, he continued talking about how he had saved his sister from drowning, being brought back as the spirit of winter. "It was really hard though, because nobody could see. But then… well, why don't I just introduce you to them?" His lips curved into a teasing smirk, and Elsa's blush deepened.

Taking the time to brush out her messy hair and wash off her face, Elsa asked more questions about Jack's past. She was shocked to find out that he and the Easter Bunny had some kind of feud, but the stories he told about it were enough to make her laugh. "Did you really dye his fur yellow and pink?" the queen asked, incredulous at the pranks the spirit had managed to pull off. Her face was bright red from laughing, and every story was funnier than the last one.

Jack nodded anxiously, sitting next to Elsa on a small ice bench she had made by the lake. "Sure did," he responded smugly, crossing his arms proudly across his chest. "I'm pretty sure he didn't come out of the Warren for almost three months." The spirit laughed at the happy memory, and Elsa couldn't help but smile, knowing that Jack's life hadn't been completely miserable. The first parts of his story had made the queen's heart ache for him.

"Why do I feel so breathless?" Elsa thought as she realized how close she was to Jack. Her heart beat incredibly fast, but the young queen could not figure out what was happening to her. "What is wrong with me?"

Trying to suppress his feeling for the beautiful queen, Jack instead told her funny stories about his past. Whenever he heard that lovely laugh, his frozen heart seemed to thaw a little bit and his cheeks heated up with blush. "At least I can pass it off on laughing so much," he thought gratefully, remembering what North had told him back in Arendelle. There was no hope that he could ever truly be with the queen without one of them getting hurt.

"So, who did you want me to meet?" Elsa asked after a while, smiling happily. She seemed freer than she had locked up in the castle, as though she were finally letting herself go. Her platinum blonde hair was taken out of its usual braid and she didn't even bother wearing formal shoes. Instead, the queen simply wore white and blue tennis shoes that looked unbelievably comfortable.

Jack smiled, thinking about the group of kids who were probably awaiting his return. Jamie had always said that Burgess was more fun with the young spirit around, and Jack thought that it was probably because of his title. "They live in the town nearby. A few years ago, they helped me defeat the boogeyman," Jack said, adding a slightly ominous tone as he said the evil creature's official name. He was rewarded with another delighted laugh from Elsa. "I don't think I'll ever get sick of that laugh," he thought, smiling.

Deciding to be gentleman for a change, Jack stood up and helped the young queen to her feet. A powerful shock raced through his arms the moment his hand connected with Elsa's palm, and he jumped slightly at the pain. As he guided her to the nearby town, careful not to touch any of her skin directly, he looked at his hand. A bright red welt shone against his pale skin where the shock had occurred, and he wondered why that had happened. It wasn't until Burgess was in sight that he noticed how quiet Elsa had been throughout their entire walk. "Are you okay, Elsa?" he asked, worried about the queen.

She offered a pitiful smile and returned her gaze back to her arm. Jack followed her eyes and saw a matching welt on the queen, looking exactly the same in every aspect. "I'm fine. I suppose I'm just nervous from leaving Arendelle for the first time." Even though the spirit highly doubted that was the real reason, he noticed the truthful lilt in her words. "Wow, she's never left her kingdom before now?" he asked himself silently, astonished at this news.

"If you get too homesick, just let me know. I'll fly you back without hesitation," Jack promised absently, his mind still being pulled to the red mark on both his palm and Elsa's arm. Despite seeing impossible things happen on a regular basis, he could not believe that something so strange would happen. "Our marks shouldn't look exactly alike, should they? I'll ask North about after Elsa falls asleep tonight," Jack decided, casting a confused glance at the queen.

So, Elsa is getting some feelings for Jack. Ooh! And what up with all the shocks and those marks? Mystery that I'm piecing together as I write. Haha~
