Meet me by the oak in lunch period.

That was all the letter said. Elsa had been staring at it throughout half of her English lesson, pretending to take notes, and trying to figure out what it meant.

She knew who it was from of course, and that just made her more nervous. Overland's scrawled handwriting was easy to recognise, and Elsa wasn't sure what to do now that he wanted to meet.

She went over the situation with Rapunzel, from when she found the note stashed in her locker, and of course, Rapunzel just wanted Elsa to go to the oak like Jack had requested. But Elsa wasn't sure, and she was running short on opinions.

She stressed about it through Math, Science, and History, and before she knew it, it was time for lunch.

Marching to the cafeteria with Anna and Rapunzel by her side, Elsa's blue eyes searched for the white head of hair. She spotted his friends gathered at their usual table, but he was nowhere in sight.

And at that moment, Elsa made up her mind.

"You guys go ahead without me, I just want to go grab something from my car." Elsa excused herself from Rapunzel and Anna's conversation. Anna looked surprised, while Rapunzel gave her a knowing grin.

"Don't be too long." Rapunzel smirked, linking arms with her redhead cousin and heading towards the lunch line. Elsa sighed in relief, and before she could chicken out, spun around and sprinted out of the lunch room.

.0.0.

Elsa breathed in the fresh air as she stepped out of the school. The whole landscape was covered in white soft snow, and Elsa couldn't help feeling a strange sense of calm settle over her as she hurried to the oak.

The oak tree was in a circle at the entrance to Disworks High, and as Elsa neared it, she saw no sign of Jack.

Or so she thought.

As she hesitated below the bare branches of the symbolic tree that had been there long before the school had been built, she head movement above her.

She looked up, and saw Jack balancing on a thick limb. "Hey." She said, rocking back on her heels awkwardly.

Jack gave her a small smile. "I didn't think you'd come." Elsa shrugged. "I guess, I felt I needed to clear some things up. I needed to apologize."

Jack hovered down to her level, not at all worried about flying in public. Thankfully there were no people around, aside from a lone car cruising down the road which both teenagers ignored.

"I'm sorry for running off." Elsa spoke first, holding up a hand to stop Jack from interrupting. "I could have handled that way better."

"I also need to apologize." Jack rubbed the back of his neck with his hand. "I understand that...if you just want to be friends..."

Elsa took a deep breath, feeling the ice fizzling around her fingertips, a nervous habit, and interrupted him mid-sentence.

"No, that's just it, Jack."

When he was quiet, she continued. "I've always been the child who does what my parents want me to. I... I never really thought about what I want, because I'm too busy trying to be the person my parents expect me to be...

"But, when I'm with you, I'm myself. No worrying about what others think of me, free to use my powers, and ice skate, and drink hot chocolate."

Jack gave a small chuckle, which Elsa took as a good sign, as she continued hastily.

"When we...well, Real Elsa didn't know how to react, because I don't really know who I really am, like an identity crisis or something."

"And I'm sorry. I've given it some thought, and, well…I believe it is me who was in the wrong."

Elsa broke off for air, unable to meet his intense gaze.

"So." Jack said after a moment. "If I were brave enough to ask you to the Winter Formal... what would the real Elsa say?"

Elsa's heart leapt, and she glanced back up to see him smiling at her, not a smirk, but a genuine smile that made the butterflies in Elsa's stomach fly into a frenzy.

"She might just consider it." She teased and Jack's smile widened.

"Well in that case-" He pulled two light blue tickets from his pocket. "Will you, Elsa, be my date to the Winter Formal?"

Elsa grinned. "I would love to."

And then, she stood on her tippy-toes and gently pressed her lips against Jack's.

They broke apart for a moment, before Jack kissed her again, wrapping his arms around her. And at that moment, Elsa knew everything was going to be perfect.

0.0.0

By the end of the day, the news had travelled around the whole school that the Snow Queen, and the King of Pranks were officially together.

Elsa dodged out of choir, followed by Rapunzel who had been pestering her non-stop on details of the 'confession'. Her cousin was over the moon with excitement that the two ice-creating lovebirds had finally gotten together, and was already "planning the wedding!"

(Although she told a distraught Elsa that it was "just a joke")

Anyway, right now, all Elsa wanted to do was get home. She and Anna obviously had things to talk about, and it was getting late.

"See you tomorrow!" Rapunzel called as she jumped onto the late-bus with a few other kids from choir, including, Claire Nunez, and Violet Parr.

Elsa waved goodbye to her cousin, and made her way to her car. Nearby, she caught sight of an old yellow truck that belonged to none other than Kristoff. She hurried over, catching sight of the blonde boy, and frowning as she noticed his uncharacteristic grave look.

"Hey Kristoff." She said as she stopped beside him. "What's wrong?"

He looked at her. "What's wrong? Elsa, why on earth are you going to the dance with Jackson Overland of all people?"

Elsa blinked, opening her mouth to answer, but Kristoff interrupted her.

"What's happened to you? I never see you nor Anna anymore, and now all of a sudden he's manipulated you into going with-"

"He hasn't manipulated me into doing anything!" Elsa exclaimed.

"You barely know him!" Kristoff cried in exasperation.

"Yeah I do! I-"

"Oh yeah, your "math tutoring sessions"." Kristoff gave her a withering look.

"Whatever, Elsa. I just thought you and Anna weren't like the other girls at this school. Guess I was wrong."

Then without giving Elsa a chance to respond, he spun on his heel, walked back to his car, got inside, and drove away.

Elsa opened the door of her home, and wandered through the building. As she entered the lounge, she found her mother curled up in a chair, reading.

"Hey Mama." She said, announcing her arrival. Induna looked up and smiled at her oldest daughter. "Hello sweetie, how was school?"

"Tiring. Kristoff is mad at me."

"Whatever for?"

"I'm guessing he's still upset about Anna and Hans…and well...Jack asked me to the Winter Formal."

Induna's face lit up. "Finally! You're going to a school dance! Does Anna know yet?"

"No. We aren't in the same classes, and I had choir, and then she came home with Hans." Elsa answered with a huff at the thought of the red-head boy dating her sister.

"Why can't she see that Kristoff in better for her than Hans?"

"Hans is a perfectly nice boy" Induna chided. "He is very mature, and well-mannered, and he clearly adores Anna."

Elsa wasn't convinced. "Where is Anna now?"

"On a date." Induna answered.

On a Wednesday night? Elsa felt like yelling, but schooled her features, and swallowed her anger, deciding to listen to her mother.

'Ok. Well, I'm going to go start my reading assignment." Elsa said, glancing up at the clock, which read 5:20.

"Alright then, dinner will be ready in half an hour." Her mother called as her daughter left the room.

O…O

Elsa walked through the hallways with Rapunzel at her side, who was busy humming to herself as she checked her clipboard. Rapunzel was the Chairperson for the Winter Formal committee, and with less than a week to go before the big day, she was beginning to stress out.

Elsa stopped suddenly, and Rapunzel rammed into her back. She opened her mouth to complain, but then she stopped, her brow furrowing in confusion as she saw what had made Elsa stop dead in her tracks.

A red-headed woman in a hospital outfit was leaving the principal's office, her face tearstained and worried. Elsa and Rapunzel traded confused looks, and Elsa turned to the nearest person who happened to be Claire Nunez.

"What's Dr. Lake doing here?"

Claire stopped talking to her friend Mary to answer Elsa, her eyes wide with concern.

"She was talking to Principal North." She explained, "Jim's missing."

"Jim?"

"James Lake. You know, that tall black haired guy, friends with Toby?" Claire said and Elsa nodded as she recalled the 16 year old boy.

"Where is he?" Rapunzel asked

"No one knows." Claire pursed her lips. "He went missing a day after that explosion we had two months ago."

Elsa nudged Rapunzel slightly. The fact that a teenager go missing immediately after an explosion that had managed to give some children superpowers was too suspicious to just be a coincidence.

"Why did Dr. Lake only say something now?"

"Apparently, he told Dr. Lake that he was going on an all-expenses paid school camp. And obviously, up until now he's been keeping in contact with her, and now Dr. Lake came to find out what was happening."

"And Principal North told her that there was no school trip?" Rapunzel guessed and Claire nodded mournfully.

"Exactly. Dr. Lake in freaking out." Claire shook her head. "I hope Jim's okay."

Elsa and Rapunzel exchanged glances. This little development only posed more questions for the members of the SSS.

.O.

Violet Parr opened her locker, glancing self-consciously over her shoulder, a habit. When she was satisfied that no one had come to shove her in her locker or anything, she turned back and began piling her school books inside.

At that moment, a small note fell out of her locker and onto the floor. Hesitantly, Violet picked it up and narrowed her eyes, unsure of what might be inside.

Finally she unfolded it, and read the swirly handwriting, written in a purple pen.

Sticks and Stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.

Stay strong!

Violet glanced around the school hallways again, as if the writer of the letter might reveal themselves at that very moment.

But no one did, and Violet stuffed the note in her pocket, closing her locker, and walking away.

.o.o.o.

A/N

I'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!

(And soooooooooooooooo sorry!)

I feel horrible for leaving you guys for so long, and I hope you enjoyed this chapter, and to try and make up for it, I am double posting this time. I had severe writer's block.

(I think it's contagious :O)

And my computer broke, so I couldn't write FOREVER! Plus, this holidays has been SUPER busy, but now is not the time for me to whine.

I'm sorry again, but thank you for being so patient and reading this story, we're nearing the end now, so I hope you like it :)

P.S Jim Lake, Dr. Lake, Tobias Domzalski, and Claire Nunez are characters of the DreamWorks Netflix series called Trollhunters, it's pretty good and I suggest you at least go look it up, cause you'll need it in the next chapter :D

So long :)
