A/N: Aww thanks for your support guys! And your love ;)
Well it's going down guys, cause I'm yelling timbaaa Nehehehehe
Funny jokes funny jokes….
I have no sense of humor at all.
Olaf sighed as he walked past Elsa's locked door. She had been locking herself in her room for a week, isolating herself from everyone; from Olaf and Kristoff. She never even went to school and somehow managed to move Olaf's and Kristoff's drawer in the two guest rooms without them noticing.
She was shutting everyone out… Just like in sixth grade.
Elsa sat on the living room couch, a much shorter version of Elsa in a much more simple and kiddish outfit. She was just in a simple knee length blue dress. She sat on the couch and placed her phone on her right ear, listening to the speaker from the other side. Kristoff and Olaf were walking back and forth, from the kitchen to the living room. They were bringing in food; they brought in hot chocolate, chocolate cake, chocolate desserts and some spaghetti as well. Once they settled all the food down on the living room table, they looked at Elsa with a smile. But, no smile was graced upon Elsa's face. Instead, sadness and despair started to slowly creep into her eyes and Olaf and Kristoff noticed this.
Elsa held back her tears that were threatening to fall and she smiled through it all. A broken smile. A broken smile that should have never graced upon her face during that day.
"It's okay Mama and Papa. I'll be fine… You said after all that I have to learn how to grow up and be on my own eventually." Elsa said, her voice slowly breaking down and tears finally sprang into her eyes.
"Love you to." Elsa's voice cracked and she hung up immediately. The small sixth grade Elsa threw the phone to the ground and ran up the stairs of the house and into her room, small tears running down her cheeks. Kristoff looked at Olaf with a worried look and Olaf frowned. Elsa was crying and she didn't want to celebrate with them?
Something must have happened on the phone call and little Kristoff in basketball shorts and a yellow t-shirt spoke up.
"Does Elsa not want to celebrate her birthday?" Olaf sighed and ran a hand through his hair, a habit he was starting to pick up.
"I don't even know anymore Kristoff." Olaf said, noticing how lately, Elsa's mood was sad and depressing.
What they didn't know until three months later was that Elsa's parents had told her that they wouldn't ever come home, having work piling up over them. They had missed Elsa's birthday, Christmas and Thanksgiving.
They didn't find out until three months later, not knowing that whatever happened would affect Elsa that much to shut everyone out for three whole months. Shut her friends out and not even come out of her room.
If it wasn't for Kristoff's and Olaf's persistency towards Elsa, who knows how long she would have stayed in her room and isolated herself from everyone.
Olaf sighed and placed his head against Elsa's door, Kristoff to the right of him. Elsa was shutting herself out again and it had been a week. A whole damn week of Elsa not coming out at all. Kristoff and Olaf had experienced this thing before, but they would've thought Elsa would get over this sooner. She barely knew Anna! Why as she sad about this? Anna and her group had bullied Elsa and one night changed all her feelings. When she gets her feelings broken, she locks herself out.
This was just simply pathetic.
Kristoff groaned and stood up, walking away from Elsa's door when he realized how childish she was acting. Olaf on the other hand had frowned and watched his best friend go. There were some things that Olaf knew more about Elsa then Kristoff. Olaf sighed and leaned his head against the door.
Elsa fell in love too easily. She was gullible when it came to love and Elsa would easily fall in a snap of a finger.
She just fell for the wrong person in Olaf's eyes.
Olaf stood up and turned to face Elsa's door one more time. Olaf couldn't help her through this, she had to help herself. Eventually, she had to come out right? She had to realize how much school she was missing and how much her friends needed her.
So, Olaf walked away from the door for once, walked away from Elsa and left her on her own.
It was November already and Elsa had locked herself inside her room for a month. It was the second quarter of the year and Olaf realized that he couldn't let Elsa fall behind on her schoolwork. So, every day after his practice, Olaf would come home with Elsa's work. He would always attach a green sticky note, a sticky note asking for Elsa to come out, to talk to him about what was wrong. Kristoff calmed down after Olaf had explained to him about how Elsa was just a person to easily fall, and couldn't handle rejection well. Kristoff understood and decided to leave food down for Elsa for breakfast and dinner, lunch on days where they didn't have school. And each meal Kristoff left for Elsa, Elsa would take without them noticing and then later on, an empty plate and cup was replaced instead at the front of her door.
Even though basketball season was already coming up and they started to have pre-season games, Kristoff and Olaf would always make time for Elsa.
Olaf would sit down at her door, telling her how boring school was without Elsa. Telling her how all the teachers were getting irritated at Kristoff and himself for fooling around, saying that they were better behaved with Elsa.
Every time Olaf got Elsa's homework, he would always attach a green sticky note to it. It became a routine when Elsa would slip back the finished work before the sun had even gone up. And it became a routine that each sticky note Olaf had slipped under had slipped back the next morning, unanswered.
At least she was still doing academically well, without even going to school. This, in Olaf's eyes, was a bit messed up.
Kristoff and Olaf would sit together at times and talk to Elsa about their life. About school life and about basketball. They would talk to her about how their practice went, how ridiculous coach was, how being captains of the team could be stressful and how their first season game was coming up. They would talk to her as if she was there with them, smiling and laughing along with them. They would pretend that Elsa would be right behind them, just laughing and responding along to their stupid moments and their rants.
But, it never happened. It was just their imagination. Reality would hit them after they would say good-night to Elsa. Elsa wasn't there with them. They couldn't see Elsa; they couldn't smell her scent or see her supportive eyes. They didn't see her at all or hear her at all. In the end, they realized that even if Elsa was listening, she would never respond. It was like they were having a one sided conversation, like they were talking to a door.
Elsa wasn't there with them and as days passed by slowly, Kristoff and Olaf forgot how their best friend looked like. How she would smile at their idiotic actions, how she would tutor and help them with work and how she would wake up early in the morning to wake them up and make them breakfast. They missed having their best friend there with them. It wasn't the same with Elsa gone; they weren't the three best friends of the school anymore.
But, Olaf and Kristoff, with heart full of gold, kept talking to their best friend through the closed door because they knew that she was listening. That even if she never responded or came out of that room, she was listening. And that was enough to let them know that their best friend was still somewhere in there. They knew that if they had given up on her, that if they had left her alone to be isolated and never came to talk to her, they knew the results wouldn't be well.
She would turn cold. Elsa wouldn't be the loving girl that the two best friends knew. She would be different. She would isolate herself from everyone and the damages could be hard to reverse. They knew that if they left Elsa alone, it was showing that they gave up on Elsa, and it showed Elsa that her thoughts were true. They knew that if they were to ignore Elsa, then her worse fears would come true and she would be traumatized. It would take years to recover from that, they knew it.
They would never give up on Elsa. Her parents gave Elsa up for work. But, real family would never give each other up. And so, Olaf and Kristoff would sit next to each other, leaning against Elsa's door and pretended that everything was alright, that everything was the same again.
When in reality, all of them were hurting inside.
Anna groaned and placed her head on the wooden cheap library desk. Ever since cheerleading season had been over, Anna had a bit more spare time. So, she decided to focus on her studies. She had urges, urges to go and find the blonde girl and ask her about that night. But, Anna needed to respect her. Anna noticed that it had been a month. Anna noticed that Elsa never arrived to school for a month and realized that something must have been wrong with her. So, she did the only thing she thought would help. She slipped a note inside Olaf's locker, knowing that Olaf would handle Anna more easily and lightly than Kristoff would. She told him to meet her in the library right now, during their lunch period. And so, here Anna was. She was looking at the clock, anxiety creeping upon her as she sat at the desk.
She needed answers. She needed them now.
Anna saw a brunette boy enter the library and look around. An orange and white baseball T-shirt grasped onto his muscles tightly and his yellow board shorts stood out. Anna met the mocha brown eyes and saw it narrow slightly. She then saw the brunette boy slowly make his way towards her and Anna saw the regret in his eyes.
The boy finally arrived and sat down across from Anna. He placed his hands on the desk, his fingers intertwined with each other and he took a deep breath and looked at the ginger, trying to keep his cool.
"Where is she Olaf?..." Anna asked; fear nearing her voice and Olaf looked at Anna. He just shook his head at her.
"If that's all you wanted to ask, then I'm leaving." Olaf said, standing up and grabbing his stuff. Anna stood up as well and grabbed his wrist.
"Olaf please. My feelings for her… they're-"Anna started.
"Fake. They're as fake as your boyfriend and as fake as you." Olaf spat at Anna, coldness creeping into his eyes, and he continued.
"She's better off without you Anna. I know you're used to getting whatever you want but don't you think your life is perfect enough? Don't you think you have enough? Do all of us a favor and leave us alone." Olaf said coldly before shaking his grip out of Anna's grasp and walking away.
Anna stood there, shocked and paralyzed. Something was definitely wrong with Elsa. And, as much as Anna wanted to go drive to her house and see if she was hiding their, she knew she couldn't. She knew she couldn't because she told herself that she would give Elsa time.
Anna looked at the list of school events on a huge calendar in the library and her eyes focused on this Saturday. This Saturday. The first game for the basketball boys. She knew that Elsa wouldn't not go that game. Even if something went wrong with her life, she would always be there to support her boys.
So, Anna made it her goal to go to the game, cancel everything and anything on that day.
She needed to see her.
"Elsa… our first game is this Saturday. I know that you've been having problems lately… But Olaf and I need you. We'd be happy if you went to our game, it would mean a lot to us. Or at least watch it on T.V." Kristoff puffed out and heard no response from the other side.
"We miss you Elsa… Olaf and I and even the basketball boys. We miss you and we need you Elsa. It feels different without you here and it sucks. Please, come out and let us in. We'll help you Elsa. Just please." Kristoff felt his own tears come upon his face. Kristoff never cried; he was too strong to cry. Kristoff smiled through and said.
"Remember how I told you I would never cry and then Olaf would say yes, I do and you responded by poking my chest and saying my heart's soft." Kristoff laughed and still no response. His tears fell down on the carpet and he just smiled his way through.
"We love you Elsa, no matter what. We'll always be there to protect you and we'll never leave you. You, Olaf and I… We're all like a puzzle. We need each other to fit in order to be complete and I miss how it was before… Before you fell. Not saying it was your fault, but I just wish that you can open up to us and let us help you." Kristoff murmured, his head was now placed upon Elsa's wall and he sighed.
"The game's going to be at our school… It's going to start at seven. I hope you'll be there, or at least watch us play and then when we come home, you'll know if we're happy or not." Kristoff laughed, remembering how Elsa would always be there to rather celebrate with them over a win or cheer them up over a loss.
Kristoff let out a breath and decided to press his ear slightly against the door, hoping for a response, hoping for at least a small sound… anything. But, it was mute.
It was Saturday and Olaf and Kristoff had their duffle bags on their right shoulder. They were preparing to leave to the school to set up the gym for the game tonight. It was now three in the afternoon and Olaf and Kristoff stood at Elsa's door. Today was their first game, and it was going to be different from all the other years. All the other years ever since elementary, Elsa would come along with them and help them set up and be there to support them on the bleachers. Now, she was locked in her room, isolating herself and trying to freeze her feelings.
Olaf and Kristoff knew that Elsa was isolating herself to get her feelings at control and at ease. But, isolating herself to control her feelings practically meant freezing them and killing them, leaving only a cold heartless Elsa in replace. That was another reason why Olaf and Kristoff decided to be there for her and not give up. They wouldn't allow Elsa to turn cold, she did once from her parents and it took them a good year for them to recover Elsa slowly. And, it still stuck somewhere, the pain of her parents.
Olaf knocked quietly on Elsa's door and there was still no response. Kristoff shook his head at Olaf, telling him to not give along speech, considering that Kristoff already did and they were running short on time.
Olaf got the memo and instead told Elsa,
"Hey we're leaving now. Call us if you need anything okay?" Olaf said quietly and there was still no response.
"We both love you Elsa." Kristoff said and nothing. There was no sound. It was like talking to a wall, a wall that Olaf and Kristoff wouldn't give up on.
Kristoff sighed and looked down, a frown forming on his face. Olaf just wrapped his arm around Kristoff's shoulder and gave him a smile as they started to walk down the halls and down the stairs of their home.
"Win this game for Elsa. We got to fight hard and try our best." Olaf told Kristoff slowly. Kristoff let out a huff and nodded his head.
"We will."
Anna arrived at the game and searched the bleachers around carefully for the girl. To her misfortune, she wasn't there. She sighed and looked back at the court to see the two teams warming up. What was wrong with Elsa? Was her situation that bad that she didn't show up to the game? Anna bit her bottom lip and decided that if she was here, she might as well enjoy the game. So, Anna sat at the front row of the bleachers near the entrance, hoping that if Elsa did come, Anna would quickly notice.
Second quarter into the game and only five minutes left, which was a lot considering a quarter had eight minutes. The score was thirty to twenty five; their team was down by five points. Kristoff and Olaf were part of the starting five, as Kristoff dribbled the ball down the court, his legs moving quickly with the ball. When he arrived, he looked towards Olaf; his green and white jersey was sweaty and stuck to his skin, the number two in green. Kristoff gave a crisp pass to him and Olaf immediately pulled up and shot the three pointer, bringing their team up to being down my two points.
The crowd went wild. Anna stood up and screamed. She never knew basketball games could actually be this fun, considering the fact that she was prohibited to even step into the gym unless there was some kind of assembly or cheerleading practice in there.
The points that they built up were mostly from Kristoff passing it to Olaf the majority of the time when he knew that he was open, letting him pull up his infamous three pointers.
The opposing team passed the ball to their shooting guard; to only have to quickly stolen by a white jersey person with the number one in green, that being Kristoff. Everyone started to move their way down court and the opposing teams tried to swipe the ball out of Kristoff's hands, but he was a trickster. When the opposing team came to his right, he would bounce the ball behind his back and continue the opposite side, trying to make his way down court through the middle. Getting yourself trapped in the corner was just screaming them to get the ball from you, Kristoff learning this from his years of playing ball. When Kristoff arrived at the other side of the court, he noticed Olaf free and quickly passed it to him.
Olaf was going to shoot a three pointer when a huge red blur went at him and knocked him down. A loud thud was heard and everyone stood up and watched the biggest player of their team had defended Olaf and stole the ball from him, also knocking Olaf down and pushing him down without the refs noticing, probably cause majority refs can't always call good fouls. The big player passed it to his point guard and the ball went down court. Meanwhile, Olaf laid there on the floor, unable to move. Every time he tried to get up, his right foot didn't enable him to. Shit. The opposing crowd went wild as the opposing team made a point in. Right after was when the refs noticed that Olaf was down. Dumb blind refs.
The refs called their own time out and all the players on the court had to report back to their coaches. In the meanwhile, Olaf laid there, squirming at the pain as the trainer rushed to him to check on his injuries. Everyone in the crowd was silent. They watched the trainer move Olaf's right ankle slightly, causing him to flinch. The trainer frowned and asked for help from the coach. He came and they both carried Olaf up and took him back to the bench at his team's side. Everyone was clapping for him like you're usually supposed to do when someone gets out due to getting hurt. When Olaf arrived, his coach gently placed him down and gave him a sincere smile while Kristoff just patted his head.
"You played hard buddy." Kristoff knew that whatever happened to Olaf's ankle was serious. Olaf smiled sadly at his friend before he was sat down to be inspected more. The game was now harder with their best shooter out of the game and Kristoff had to work his way through this. He needed to win this. The team needed to win this for Olaf. Kristoff and Olaf needed to win this for Elsa.
The third quarter of the game was starting already and Olaf was persistent in getting into the game, but the coach denied him. Their team was now down by fifteen points. How were they going to catch up so quickly? A time out was called by the opposing team and everyone had gathered around. Kristoff ran towards his coach, sweat stuck to his face and his jersey.
"Kristoff! We're fifteen points away! They're aiming for you and blocking our posts! You need to work your way around this." The coach yelled and Kristoff let out a breath. He was playing for the whole game, and he was in need of a break. Half time wasn't enough of a break for him because the intensity of the game had escalated at third quarter.
"Then we'll have to leave an isolation spot open for our guard that can penetrate in. It's rather that or Sven and I can screen his defender." Kristoff stated and the buzzer sounded. The players from the opposite team flooded onto the court, smirks played onto their faces and Kristoff gritted his teeth. They couldn't leave a bad impression that their school was horrible by losing the first game.
Anna sat there and watched the game go on. She had never felt so excited when watching a basketball game. She never felt so alive. Anna kept watching and simultaneously, the sound of the buzzer went off as well as the door to the left of her closing.. Anna glanced and her mouth shot open.
There Elsa stood.
She stood in the most simplest of clothes. Just a navy blue tank top and white sweats. Anna saw Elsa's hair a mess and her eyes have many continuous bags under them. Anna wanted to stand, she wanted to stand and run after the girl that she couldn't get. She wanted to pull her in a hug, pull her and squeeze her and ask her where she has been for the past month. Then, she saw Elsa run the opposite direction of her, run towards the benches where all the players were located. Anna stood up. She wanted to chase, she was going to chase.
Until she saw Elsa pull Olaf into a passionate and tight hug. Then, Anna's mind went blank and went back.
"Do you regret it?"
"Yes! Of course I regret that night silly! It was so dumb and overrated." Hans looked down at his girlfriend and couldn't help but let a smirk erupt upon his face. Anna noticed and looked a bit confused. Then, she saw Hans lean down and capture her lips.
Anna hesitated at first, not knowing if she should kiss him back or push him down the stairs and tell him to 'Fuck off' because Elsa wanted to talk to her. Then, it came upon her that if she did do the second option, people would crowd around them and wonder what was wrong with the golden couple. Anna didn't want drama to come up and have Elsa involved in it, so she kissed him back.
Once Hans and Anna had pulled away, Anna felt sick. Why she didn't break up with Hans three months ago, Anna didn't know. She was just so busy with everything that Hans was out of her mind about that situation. Now, since Anna had practically all the time in the world, she wanted to break it off with Hans, she wanted to push him down the stairs they were on and tell him that she liked someone else. Hans then gave his girlfriend a random hug before walking away. Anna just looked at him with confusion as she saw her boyfriend walk away. She sighed before turning around, going to apologize about the scene that just happened and explain her thoughts. But, no one was in front of her anymore.
Anna's eyebrows furrowed and she looked around for the blonde girl. She then looked up and saw her in Olaf's embrace and her heart broke. They looked so… cozy. So comfortable and looked like they would be a cute couple, which pained Anna. Anna frowned as she watched Olaf pick Elsa up bridal style and walk her out of the stadium. Anna wanted to do that for Elsa, she wanted to be with Elsa. Why did Elsa leave so suddenly after Hans had come? Maybe Anna should just explain herself.
But, she let out another sigh, but a frustrated one. She was not going to go and chase after Elsa. Maybe she just needed more time and just wanted to say hi and that's all. So, Anna turned on her heel and walked back onto the football field, cameras flashing at the players.
Though, only one image was flashing on Anna's mind.
Kristoff had the ball in his hand and shot a three pointer, allowing the crowd to go crazy.
Kristoff started running down on defense until he saw a blonde hair girl at the benches of his team and he stopped. He literally stopped and got pushed down, causing a foul on him for block. Kristoff scowled at the refs and they allowed the person who banged into Kristoff to shoot two free throws. Once the first one was shot, subs were called in. Kristoff walked off of the court and pushed his backup point guard onto the court. The point guard was a red head boy with green eyes. His eyes widened and Kristoff just pushed him on, mumbling that he'll be back soon. The coach looked at Kristoff with confusion as he saw his captain run to the end of the bench and engulf the other captain and his best friend in a hug.
"I can't believe… How?" Kristoff asked, pulling away and looking into Elsa's eyes. They weren't the full and ecstatic eyes he once looked into, but now had shown sadness. But, better than showing no emotion at all. Kristoff smiled and Elsa gave him a sad smile.
"Well… I needed to watch my boys play somehow right? I watched it on T.V. and saw the nasty accident happen and I drove here as quick as I could." Elsa stated and Kristoff's smile widened.
He embraced Elsa back into a hug.
"Please don't ever scare me like that again! I was worried about you Elsa." Kristoff mumbled into his best friend's neck and she nodded her head, hugging back her sweaty best friend.
"No promises. Now go out there and win that game… For Olaf and me." Elsa pulled away and gave Kristoff a small smile. It wasn't her usual smiles, a small and bit sad smile. Kristoff knew that the incident took a toll on her, but he was glad that she came out.
Throughout the whole game, Elsa was looking at Kristoff shoot his three pointers and drive into the key, scoring points along with the rest of their other teammates that allowed them to win the game.
Throughout the whole game, Anna frowned as she watched Elsa lean onto Olaf's shoulder, Olaf then wrapping an arm around Elsa's shoulder and pulling her in closer. The sight just broke Anna's heart and when the game was finally over, she had bolted out the door.
Anna could have sworn that Elsa had felt something during the beginning of the year party night, but maybe Anna was wrong.
A/N: Well that's it… Not really anything with drama and all but ya know, its some information! Well I hope you enjoy! :)
