I'm so sorry! I have been so busy lately! I have had a lot of projects for school lately. Plus the fact that I have not had very much inspiration. Anyway, my year is ending and though it has been busy I've produced a chapter! It's mostly some fluff before we get into anymore drama.
Anyway, here's the update!
xXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
Regina sat on a small log outside the cave, her arms wrapped tightly around herself. Her eyes sligtly red and puffy. The brunette woman had been silent after feeling such immense pain in her heart. She wouldn't speak to anyone, lost in her thoughts.
The pain wouldn't stop; making it worse. Every few minutes she would tense up and fresh tears would well in her eyes as she clutched her chest. Anna, Christoff, and Olaf had no idea what to do. Anna had tried so hard to get Regina to speak, but the brunette simply ignored her.
Suddenly she began to shiver, she felt so very cold. Like her entire body was covered in a layer of ice and snow.
Anna saw that the older brunette was shivering and went to wrap a blanket around her shoulders, making Regina look up at her. A small grateful smile crossed her features, but seconds later it was gone.
The young brunette walked over to Christoff, who was watching as Olaf was babbling on about anything and everything. The man looked up as she sat down.
"What's going on?" He asked quietly.
"I don't know, she won't talk to me. She's shivering and she keeps clutching her chest. The cold could be affecting her, I think its best if we get back to town."
"What's so great about the town? Maybe we can make a fire and set up camp or something."
"Christoff, if the cold is affecting her we can't stay out here any longer. She could get sick."
"Wait... I know another place we can go."

"Who are you? What do you want with me?"
"It doesn't matter who I am, sweet one. What I want with you.. well. There are many answers to that question." The statement was followed by a loud cackle that made Elsa cower in fear.
The room felt so much colder. She couldn't take this much longer. Cowering in fear. The blonde needed Regina so desperately.
"If you're thinking if ways to escape it's not possible. You're precious love can't even break the spell keeping you in there."
"How do you know about her?" Her voice was timid; she was afraid of the answer. She still didn't know who had released her from the earn that had trapped her. What if it was a trap? She thought.
"You'll be lucky if anyone can get you out." she cackled once more before leaving the room in a plume of black smoke.
She was shaking so badly now that the cage she was locked in began to make noises. The blonde couldn't force herself to stop, no matter how hard she tried. Desperately, she tried to calm her raging emotions. To call upon a memory or a thought that would dull the storm inside her.
The first thing to mind was the image of Regina. My beautiful Regina, she thought to herself. Remembering a day back in Arandelle that they'd spent together. The day of the spring festival.
-Flashback-
"Gina, Gina wake up!" Elsa squealed excitedly as she jumped onto her lover's bed; landing next to her. The bed bounced and the brunette let out a grumble. "Go back to sleep, too early."
The blonde only giggled and tried to turn her love over so she could wake her better. It took many tries before she got Regina onto her back and straddled her thighs; keeping her from turning back over and burying herself in the covers.
Regina simply glared at her sleepily but Elsa smiled. She'd give anything in the world to see her like this every morning. Her long, slightly curled hair mussed and spread on the pillows. Her deep, choclate eyes blurry and glazed over with sleep. Her naturally red lips in a pout, making them look plumper than ever. Gods, how she wanted this for the rest of her life.
"I hate you." she grumbled.
"No you don't."
"Yes I do, get off me."
"Hmmm.. nope." The blonde smirked but the brunette fought her. She giggled and rolled her hips slightly, making Regina stop and shiver a bit with arousal. Her pupils dialating at the friction.
"Get up." Elsa said with a wicked smile and got off her, leaving her to get ready.
"You're cruel." She stated as they rode in the carriage to the town square later that morning. Elsa laughed and smirked at her love.
"Tell me something I don't know." She answered, to which Regina simply rolled her eyes and huffed. "What are we doing today anyway?"
"We're going to the spring festival, my love." she said with a proud smile. The spring festival was tradition in Arendelle. There were witches and warlocks who did magic tricks for the children, food was sold by the local businessmen and women, puppet shows were put on, plays were acted out on large stages. At the end of the night on the docks of the kingdom, everyone would gather together as fireworks lit up the sky. To Elsa, there was nothing better than the festival and she desperately wanted to share it with the person she loved most.
"I've never been to a festival.." She said quietly, fidgeting slightly as her hands suddenly became interesting. Thinking about the castle back in the enchanted forest always upset her, she thought of it as her prison.
Elsa moved to sit on the seat next to her, taking Regina's face between her hands. "Don't think about that. You're not there, you're here with me." she gave her a small smile before kissing her lips softly.
The carriage stopped and they stepped from it hand in hand. This was one day that they could be open with their relationship. Nobody but those who worked in Regina's castle knew who she was. Nobody ever saw the queen, nobody ever cared.
Adults and children quickly gathered around, excited to see their queen and the woman with her. Regina smiled, never having known the feeling of such acceptance. A few young children gathered, pulling on her skirts lightly. She kneeled down and pulled them into an embrace, tickling them and smiling brightly when they released their giggles.
They spoke with the people surrounding them happily. Once the crowd dispersed they walked around, enjoying the sights and the smells. Elsa had bought a small dessert, covered in coconut and handed it to her love who took a small bite. She let out a small moan at the surprise she got from the custard in the middle of the bread.
"That's so good, El. Try some!" she said and had her love take a bite. The blonde nodded "That is good, darling."
They walked to to puppet show, watching the story unfold as the person behind it told the story through a high squeaky voice. Regina giggled at the the story before turning to her right. A woman was holding a small baby girl and trying to get hold of her running toddler. The redhead turned to her quickly "I'm sorry, could you hold my daughter for a moment?" she asked, obviously stressed.
Regina quickly nodded and took the small child carefully. The baby looked up at her with the greenest eyes she'd ever seen, her chubby little hand reaching for a strand of her hair and bringing it to her mouth. The brunette smiled and pulled the hair from the girl's grip gently. "No no, sweetheart."
The baby baby pouted, her eyes becoming clouded with tears as she let out a noise of sadness. "Aw, don't cry beautiful one." she cooed to the baby, kissing her forehead softly. The baby let out a murmur of delight, laying her tiny head on the brunette's shoulder. Regina smiled, cooing and bouncing the little girl lightly in her arms. Elsa smiled as she watched the love of her life hold the baby close, thinking about how great of a mother she'd be. She was so lucky to have this woman.
The redhead eventually gathered her children and took the baby from Regina, thanking her profusely before running off. Elsa wrapped the brunette in her arms, nuzzling her neck.
"You're so beautiful." she whispered, peppering kisses along her neck lightly. "You'd make a wonderful mother."
"No I wouldn't." she said softly.
"Baby, that little girl adored you. You'd be the most beautiful mother i've ever seen."
"Would it be yours?" she asked quietly, confusing Elsa.
"Would what be mine?" she asked, playing with a strand of her love's dark hair.
"The child, would I be carrying your child?" The brunette turned to look into her eyes, the look on her face was hopeful.
"I'd be outraged if you'd carry anyone elses child."
The two smiled, looking into each other's eyes before their lips met. The feelings inside of them were so powerful they thought their hearts would overflow with love.
When they finally broke apart, they rested their foreheads together. Everybody was making their way towards the docks so Elsa took her hand and they walked with the crowd.
They made it to the docks, finding a space to sit. Once they sat, bright colors illuminated the sky followed by echoing bangs. Each one bringing a different surprise. A different painting against the blank canvas that was the sky. Each and every firework was a work of art, a masterpiece.
Regina watched with a smile on her face, taking in the light and colors above her. She leaned into Elsa, who kissed her cheek gently.
There was no way she was ever letting go of this woman
-End of Flashback-
The blonde calmed down, eyes drooping as her heart rate slowed. The shivering ceased as she fell asleep. Unaware that the memory had just spared the love of her life immense pain.

Okay so first of all the dessert described in the flashback is an actual thing. It's called school bread, and it is extremely good but extremely rich. I've gotten it at Disney World in Florida, it's located in Norway in Epcot. If you ever go, get one because god are they good.
Secondly, i'm hoping to start another chapter tonight but I have no idea when it'll be put up. Anyway, please review or PM me. That'll probably get you a faster update *wink wink*
