A/N: Here is the last chapter of the story. Thank you for all of your favorites, follows, and reviews and for sticking with this story until the end. I was originally planning for this to be a standalone story, but due to the request of a friend of mine there will be a sequel in the distant future for this story. Until then, keep your eyes peeled for my Behind The Story column, where I talk a little about the inspiration and process of writing each of my multi-chapter stories. I post them to my tumblr (onthecyberseas), and there is a link to all of them in the main menu. Thanks again for sticking with this story and I hope you enjoyed it.
One Year Later
Elsa nervously fidgeted with her hair as she sat on the grassy area next to the lake. She glanced over towards the castle as she reached into her pocket and clasped her fingers around the ring resting there. She still couldn't believe that she was about to do this. Despite a pep talk from Anna and having helped Kristoff with his own proposal to her sister, she was still worried that something would go horribly wrong.
In the past year, Asha and Elsa had grown closer. They had spent the past months visiting each other at their kingdoms and Elsa's feelings had only deepened. After all of this time, the initial spark that had ignited on their first meeting had never extinguished. It had taken a while, but Asha's father eventually warmed up to Elsa and her relationship with his daughter. Anna and Kristoff's engagement had helped her realize that she was ready to take the next step. Once she had her heart set on it, she asked the King for Asha's hand in marriage, which he approved.
Glancing over at the castle, her heart skipped as she saw Asha walk toward her. She looked like a vision in her green dress and seeing her took Elsa's breath away. She stood up and their eyes locked. Asha reached her and they stood only a few inches apart.
"Good evening," Asha said as she leaned in to kiss Elsa. Elsa kissed her back, but Asha sensed her nerves. Pulling away, she looked into the Queen's eyes, "Something wrong?"
Elsa shook her head, "Everything's perfect." She gestured to the picnic basket by her feet, "I'm just hungry."
Asha looked at her suspiciously, but resisted pressing the issue. She sat down next to Elsa and they ate their sandwiches while catching up on their day. Elsa was having an internal panic attack, but did her best to keep her cool. Asha sensed that something was up and couldn't hold it back any longer. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing," Elsa replied quickly.
Concerned, Asha put her hand over Elsa's in an attempt to calm her. "You know you can tell me anything."
Elsa's other hand reached back into her pocket and played with the ring. She knew that there was no use in waiting any longer, since Asha would see through her attempts to stall.
"Actually, there is something," said Elsa. She nodded toward the lake in front of them where they had gone ice-skating many times, "Remember our first date here?"
Asha masked her confusion and nodded, "Of course."
"This was where we ice-skated for the first time. It took you a while to get the hang of it," Elsa looked into Asha's eyes, "That was also the time I knew for sure that I wanted to be with you for as long as possible."
Elsa pulled out the ring from her pocket and held it in front of Asha. Upon seeing the ring, Asha's eyes widened and tears of joy sprang into her eyes. Before Elsa could say anything else, Asha excitedly answered, "Yes, absolutely Yes!" Elsa smiled before slipping the ring on her finger. Asha looked at the ring. It had a large diamond in the center of the ring and the band was studded with smaller diamonds.
Asha pulled Elsa into a kiss and they were both overjoyed that they would finally be married. As they pulled away, both girls were smiling, excited for their future together.
