Sorry guys, but this chapter was super long and so I split it into 2 parts! I felt it was too much information to take in all at once. I hope you guys are enjoying your little trip down memory lane with both Anna and Elsa. Read & Review my fellow followers and fans! Enjoy!

Elsa's tears finally fell. The combination of Anna's story and the memories that that question brought back, broke her. She never cried in front of anyone, but Anna was so comforting. She felt this weird connection with her. Elsa's shoulders shook as she retold the story of how her mother died of lung cancer.

It started off as a simple bad cough, but it got so bad that Idunn Arendelle finally decided to seek medical help, but it was too late. She was already at stage 3 and she could take chemo, but it was not falter the rapidly growing tumor. Idunn chose to not undergo chemo, much to both Elsa and her father's dismay. Idunn would tell Elsa how she didn't want to die, how she cherished life so much and wish it hadn't been her. Elsa at only 15, would hold her mother's hand and cry. Telling her she wished it was her rather than her mother. Idunn would only laugh weakly and give Elsa a kiss on the forehead. She died 11 months after her diagnoses. It broke Elsa. She needed her mother more than anything. And it didn't help that her father remarried only 3 months later. On that day, Elsa vowed to leave Norway and most importantly get away from her father's grasp. He was abusive towards Elsa, especially because of her condition. Henrik Arendelle completely despised his daughter and now that Idunn was not here to protect her, he could do whatever he wanted.

Henrik would beat Elsa until she screamed bloody murder. Not to mention he would kick her in the groin, stating how much of a monster she was and how he wished Idunn had let him kill her the moment she was born. Elsa refused to deal with his torture so at 19 she left the house in the dead of night. She took nothing except a family picture and some money. Henrik never bothered to look for her. He didn't care anyways. Elsa reached San Fran about a year later. She traveled day and night and even worked a few jobs to earn money.

"Wait wait wait." Anna squinted her eyes and pursed her lips. Elsa removed herself from Anna's warm grasp and wiped her face on her t-shirt.

"W-What?" She hiccuped snorted her snot back into her nose.

"How did you get enough money to get an apartment like...like this!" Anna flailed her arms up and down, referring to her surroundings. Elsa smiled and brought her knees to her chest.

She told of how she met Oaken one day while sleeping on a park bench. He shook her awake and began to ask why a young girl as herself would be sleeping outside. Elsa just grumbled and told him it was none of his business. That didn't seem to falter Oaken though. He insisted that Elsa worked at his coffee shop. It seemed risky, but she agreed. And from then on Oaken payed Elsa to work in his shop and even let her sleep in his house until she was able to get her own apartment. He bought her clothes, fed her and treated her as if he knew her his entire life. Elsa eventually told him the truth and why she was homeless and all Oaken did was hug her and tell her she was safe now.

"He honestly treated me more like a daughter than my father ever did." Anna simply nodded and brought Elsa into a tight hug. She buried her head into the crook of Anna's neck and cried.

"But I have one more question...that is if you're up to it…"

"Ask me…"

"Why were you crying this morning?"

Taking a deep breathe, Elsa told her the last little bit of her past that she hated the most. Basically, she told her of Michelle. Michelle had green eyes and bright curly blonde hair. Her smile was radiant and she had stole Elsa's heart. They met in freshman year and immediately they connected. They would talk on the phone every night and always hang out. And one day Michelle kissed Elsa. From then on, they were always together, like two lovebirds. They spoke of growing up and having a family. And guess what? Michelle even knew about Bolt and yet she still loved Elsa. Or so she thought. After dating for 7 months, Michelle broke up wit Elsa. Stating that she wasn't really gay and it was all a hoax just to see if it was really true that Elsa had a penis. It broke Elsa so much that she went home that day and cried so much. Her mother had died and she found refuge within Michelle to find out it was a lie. That night Henrik beat Elsa so bad that she didn't go to school for the next week. He did not approve of gays in his household. After that train wreck, she was the laughing stock of the school. They called her freak, disgusting, abomination. And what made it worse was that Michelle would take part in the teasing. Laughing and pointing at Elsa, as if she was some caged animal at the zoo.

"Since then I've never wanted to be in another relationship. Which explains why I'm so afraid to get attached to you…" The last part Elsa almost whispered to herself, but Anna knew what she said. Anna tightened her grip around the older woman. She wanted to protect her. She wanted to let Elsa know that everything was gonna be okay now.

"I finally understand…" Anna muttered into Elsa's shoulder.

"You don't have to live in fear...because...for the first time in forever, I will be right here."

"Anna…" Fresh tears filled Elsa's eyes to brim. She loved Anna. Anna was the girl that made her feel so comfortable yet so alive. She's never told anyone, except Oaken, of her past yet she managed to sum it up into a 1 hour tale. Anna was the only person who could turn the strong 'Electric' into a crying and broken little girl. She sat there and listened, rubbing gentle circles on her back. She was there when she needed someone most.

"I love you Elsa…" Anna pulled Elsa away from her grasp and looked into her icy blue eyes filled with sadness, hurt and pain. What she said was true. She did love Elsa. Despite only knowing her for 2 months, the feeling and warmth the older woman made Anna feel was no doubt love. And not a sisterly love. Something more. Something she never felt with Patrick.

Elsa stood there, eyes wide and mouth slightly open. Anna took the words right out of her mouth without even knowing it. Too overcome with feelings, she chuckled and let her lower lip quiver. Anna cupped Elsa's left cheek and brushed her thumb across her skin.

"Don't cry. Is me loving you really that bad?"

Elsa laughed and shook her head. She loved the sound of Anna's voice and the way she smiled showing all her teeth. Her freckles seemed to beam whenever she smiled. Bringing her face closer, Anna surprised Elsa with a tender kiss on the lips. It was shorter than Elsa had anticipated, but sweet none the less.

"Did I just make the big bad Electric blush?" Anna placed her hands on her hips and cocked her head to side. The platinum blonde laughed and smacked her on the knee before she grabbed Anna's face and brought her into another kiss.

"I love you too Ginger…"
