BACK TO THE STORY
After Anna finally finished her laughing fest, the painful aftermath began to began to reveal itself as the princess groaned in exhaustion, "Ohhh, so many aches."
She was laying on her back as she held her stomach, trying to relieve some of the pain. The queen just looked at her younger sister and giggled due to Anna's interesting wording.
" You're easily entertained, aren't you?" Elsa asked with a grin, her undertone of amusement extremely detectable through her smile.
" Yeah, I guess so. I haven't really had this much entertainment in a while." The redhead admitted honestly, before realizing what she had said. She saw Elsa grimace slightly and guessed she wasn't supposed to see that.
Anna began to silently scold herself for her foolish actions. 'What is wrong with me, ugh. I can't think before I say anything, and it always leads to me saying something stupid or inappropriate. What should I do now, is Elsa hiding her hurt? First- think.' Thoughts were being pondered in Anna's head.
She quickly tried to come up with an action that would balance out the emotional tension between them both. " Els?,"
Elsa gave her attention to her younger sister, and snapped out of her guilt storm of memories. The blonde tried to smile and forget the past; but she soon noticed it wasn't going to as simple as that. Elsa's 'smile' turned out to be more of a blank and neutral expression that hinted at what she felt.
' I don't want her to feel bad for saying that, it's extremely possible for a similar statement to be brought up sometime in the future.' The queen thought as she mentally prepared herself.
When Anna didn't receive a verbal response she turned to face her older sister. From there she just decided to wing it.
' Sorry, Els. I probably shouldn't have said that. And please don't feel guilty because, it wasn't your fault.' She took Elsa's hand and gave a small smile to express her honest sincerity. Anna's smile grew when her sister gently squeezed her hand. A soft airy laugh broke the silence between the two before Elsa smiled warmly.
'I know, but it just going to take a while until I completely believe I'm not guilty; I've been blaming myself for too long. Thank goodness you're here to convince me otherwise.' Elsa replied through her thoughts. Her blue eyes widened a bit when she felt the energy flow from her necklace for the first time.
"Woah! Does that happen to you too!?" Elsa asked as if it was the most interesting thing ever.
At that, Anna laughed, " Well I'm here for you . . . and quite frankly, I'm surprised you haven't experienced it yet. It happens to me every time." She explained with a small shrug.
"Well I guess I wasn't noticing it because it has a similar energy flow to my powers. It's not exactly the same, but it's relatable . . . it's a bit hard to explain." Elsa responded, trying to elucidate her new interesting discovery.
However, it was difficult for her to l explain what the energy of her powers felt like, to someone who didn't understand. Anna pursed her lips and lowered her eyebrows as if she was in deep thought. Of course Elsa had to hold her tongue before she broke Anna's concentration. After a few long seconds of silence the princess seemed to come back to Earth.
Her quizzical expression suddenly disappeared and she looked at Elsa and simply said, "Well...that's strange." before smiling awkwardly in an attempt to divert the fact that she just spaced out.
" Yeah, isn't it?" Elsa replied back teasingly. "Was that all you were thinking about?" It had seemed like something else was on her mind. " I-I was just wondering . . . Do you think- ... what if- ... " Anna stumbled over her words before sighing, " never mind, i-it'll probably sound ridiculous." She said quietly, as she looked down and played with the ends of her strawberry-blonde hair.
Elsa was barely able to contain the sigh that wanted to escape from her lips. " Anna please try to refrain from doing that, it doesn't matter how absurd or crazy it is, I still want to hear it." Elsa responded honestly, before leaning down to see Anna's face.
"Okay, um. . . Do you think Sophie has any relation to our new abilities? Because, I still can't get over the color of her eyes, they like changed to light blue, that couldn't have been the sun because her mom's changed too!" Anna began to reevaluate the things that had happened the day before. Elsa just watched her sister explain what had happened with even more energy than last night, . However, Anna seemed like she was panicking a bit as her breathing began to quicken. Noticing this Elsa tried to gain Anna's attention.
"Anna,"
" oh my goodness. Maybe they have powers too, or other special abilities. What if they're secretly plotting against us. No, what the heck am I thinking! They're way too nice."
"Anna." Elsa tried a little louder this time, but again, came to no avail.
"Maybe they're mystical creatures or mythical beings from old folkloric tales. I mean, trolls are real who says fairies can't be too. Oh my gosh, what if they're Fairies!," the princess continued to ramble on.
'I don't know, what if, Anna?' Elsa thought with a hint of sarcasm, before quietly chuckling to herself.
" I've Always Wanted To See A Fairy! " Anna exclaimed with newly found enthusiasm.
Elsa realized she really had to snap her sister out of it now, before she falsely got her hopes up.
"Anna!" She shouted, making Anna look up immediately with a shocked expression. Due to the reasoning behind it, Anna mentally slapped herself. ' why do I keep doing that. . . she's probably getting annoyed by now.' Her embarrassment painted pink on her cheeks as she mumbled an apology. " s-sorry."
" That's perfectly alright angel. I wanted to warn you about getting your hopes up, but I do agree to the idea of them being involved with our necklaces. So...let's see," Elsa paused to look at the wooden grandfather clock's face and check the time, there was about an hour until breakfast was served, giving them enough time to get ready for breakfast and the rest of the day.
" why don't we go get ready for breakfast, after that we'll build a snowman together in the ballroom, and then go into town to hopefully meet Sophie?" When Elsa said, ' build a snowman together,' Anna's smile seemed to envelope to room in an radiating warmth, it was highly contagious, as was everything Anna's expressions showed.
" That sounds perfect Els, I'm sooo excited! Oh, and. . . Thanks."
"What are you thanking me for love?, This is what older sisters are for, and to be honest, even if I wasn't your sister- I'd still go with you. You're so much fun to be around Anna, always full of energy and light, always optimistic and seeing the good in people who have already given up on themselves; you give them a spark of hope which can spread like a wildfire. You don't see it, but everyone else does and they love you, the 'crazy, fun-loving, Princess Anna of Arendelle ' that you are. And me? To be recognized as your older sister, is the greatest privilege I could have...even above being the queen."
"Aw Els . . . the funny thing is that I actually consider being your sister an honor." Anna laughed, " you're right though, we should probably get ready."
" H-hey Anna?" Elsa asked shyly, trying not to wring her hands.
"Hm?"
" After we're done getting ready. . . I was just wondering i-if I could braid your hair for you? I just love being able to experience these things again, I-it's been so long since I've done your hair for you. I remember it was one of my favorite things to do; I guess loved having capability to help you with things." Elsa explained, nervousness trying to invade her emotions.
'Oh my gosh, really?' Anna gasped before grinning excitedly. She laughed out of happiness and answered, "That'd be absolutely perfect Elsa, thank you! You can come in whenever, it doesn't really matter, then we can walk to the dining hall together." She ended as if it were a suggestion, raising her pitch at the end a bit.
" Definitely," Elsa assured sweetly, beginning to get up from the bed. She somehow managed to yawn and stretch with a surprising amount of grace for it being seven in the morning.
"Alright, see you in a little bit then." She started to walk towards the door before stopping.
" Wait. I can't go out like this... So," She turned back around, " Hey Anna, would you like to see how I made my ice dress? You might not get this nightgown back though, I'm still not even sure what happened to my coronation gown or . . . the rest of it anyway." The queen smiled and laughed.
A gasp was heard from the princess as she jumped off of her bed, " That would be incredible Elsa! Don't worry, I have plenty more nightgowns to wear."
Elsa took a deep breath and let it out slowly to calm her unexpected nervousness, " Okay," She looked down at the nightgown to get an idea of what she wanted it to look like before beginning at the bottom. Sparkling tendrils of opaque ice began to slowly wrap around the bottom of the dress in a swirling design.
At the start of her bodice the ice became a light blue with a darker blue outline. The queen put her arms out as the sparkling ice reached wrapped itself into the existing fabric, before stopping above her elbows.
Anna gaped completely awestruck of her sister's magical capability in action and Elsa couldn't help but laugh. "Wow that's amazing, It's so beautiful Elsa!"
"Thank you, maybe I could try creating a green dress for you sometime, I'll have to practice some, but I think I could do it. I almost forgot my jewelry box, " she walked over to retrieve the wooden box from Anna's nightstand. " Every time I look at it I can't help but smile . . . I love you so much Anna." Elsa smiled warmly wrapping her free arm around Anna in a side hug.
"Goal achieved then," Anna responded with a chuckle. "Love you too sis."
