Jack's POV*
After I had stepped out of the portal, I found myself staring at Elsa who had been in her back courtyard at the time I arrived. I was very happy to see her again for it had been a while since we last saw each other. She told me about how she was happy I got her letter. I was excited when I did. She then asked me how I had been and I told her I had been good. We gazed at each other awkwardly after that for a little while before she finally invited me inside her castle so we could talk.
As we began walking, I stopped in my tracks when I noticed one of the roses in her garden was frozen. I turned to look at her. "Did you do that?" I asked. She nodded her head. I looked back at the rose, then back at her and asked "Do you want me to show you how to unfreeze it?" She stood right next to me and I instructed her to touch it with her finger. When she did, the rose began to freeze over again, this time with spikes protruding from it.
"I can't do it!" She cried, yanking her hand away from the rose and backing away from me. "I'm only making it freeze up more!" She was afraid. My mind flashed back to her accidentally striking her sister in the head then in the chest with her powers.
"Don't worry. It's okay." I said, taking a step towards her. "Here, I'll help you." I reached out for her hand but stopped. I didn't want to just grab her hand without her permission because it would probably make it worse. "Could I, um.. have your hand please?" She thought about if for a minute before she slowly held her hand out in front of her. I saw that they were shaking. I carefully took her hand in mine and once I did, they stopped shaking. Her hands were so warm I just wanted to hold them forever.
I held her hand above the rose and before I instructed her on how to unfreeze it again, I turned back to her and asked if she was alright. She nodded her head back at me. "Just try to calm down and don't be scared." I said to her, looking into her eyes. "It's all going to be okay."
Still holding her hand, she slowly touched the top of the rose. I held my breath, waiting to see what would happen. Then, we both watched in amazement as the ice started to melt away from the rose till it was finally released from the ice. I looked back at Elsa with a huge smile on my face and saw that she was still gazing at the flower with wonder. She looked so beautiful when she smiled. A strand of hair fell from her braid on to her head and I wanted to tuck it back in, but I didn't.
Her face then twisted into a peculiar look and I looked back at the rose and saw that it was no longer red. It was now blue.
"Hmm, that's weird." I thought to myself. "Well, at least it's not frozen anymore." I said to Elsa. She nodded her head back at me in agreement. After gazing at the flower for a little longer, she stood straight back up and asked "Would you like to come inside the castle now?"
"Sure" I said back to her. We then began walking next to each other to the castle doors. I looked at her as we walked together and smiled at her. I then noticed she was looking at me from the corner of her eye and looked away.
When we were finally inside the castle, I looked around. I hadn't been here in a while that I forgot how huge her castle was from the inside. There were maids and butlers running around, swiping the dust off of pictures and vases, many were cleaning the stairs and the floors while others walked out and to the kitchen. Some of them stopped what they were doing and stared at me and Elsa as we walked in.
"I think they're looking at me." I said to myself. They were probably all wanting to know who the strange boy that they've never seen before was with the queen. It didn't seem to bother Elsa at all.
She then led me up a staircase to the upper floor of the castle. We entered a corridor and I couldn't stop gazing at all the pictures. There was many portraits, some were small while others seemed like they were 20 feet wide and 40 feet tall. We then walked into another room that looked like an office and also had a lot of portraits. One caught my eye and when I stood in front of it to get a closer look, I realized it was a picture of Elsa with Anna and her parents. Her father stood next to his family. His wife was sitting on a chair holding Anna and Elsa stood in front of her father. They were all smiling.
"That's a portrait of me, Anna, and my parents." Elsa said, standing next to me. She touched the portrait, a small smile forming on her lips.
"You must miss them alot, don't you?" I asked her.
"I sure do. Everyday." She gently touched her parents faces. I could feel her pain. I knew what it was like to lose your parents.
After the Man in the Moon brought me back, I still watched over my little sister and my mom their entire lives. I watched as they both sank into a deep depression over my death. Years may have passed but they never once forgot about me. They would come and visit my grave just about every day. When my little sister got married, her and her husband came to visit my grave just before they went on their honeymoon. Her husband told me he would take good care of her and love her each and every day. When they started a family, she would take her children to see me every weekend, telling them about how I saved her.
One night, she came to my grave, and I watched her from afar and heard her talking about how mom was ill and that she probably wasn't going to make it through the night. I visited my mom that night and sat next to her bedside, watching her slowly slip away. I cried and cried. Heartbroken and devastated over her death, my emotions took control over me and I launched the entire village through a blizzard that lasted for about a week and it snowed so hard no one could leave their homes. The same thing happened years later when my little sister died. It hurt me so much seeing the ones who I loved die right in front of me.
Suddenly, I felt a hand on my shoulder and I opened my eyes, finding myself looking straight into Elsa's eyes. "Are you alright, Jack?" She asked me.
"Yeah. I'm fine. I was just remembering my mother and my little sister." I felt like crying right in front of her but I kept my composure.
"Are you sure?" She asked me again. I knew that she could tell I was lying. I nodded my head again. She still wasn't convinced but she let it go. She probably knew it was something I didn't want to exactly talk about right now.
"I'd like to talk to you Jack and get to know you a bit better. Here," She gestured at a chair right next to her, "Please sit." I took the chair and sat down and waited as she brought another chair so that she could sit in it. After we made ourselves comfortable, we began asking each other questions.
"So, were you born with your powers o-or cursed?" She asked me, biting her lip.
"I wasn't born or cursed with them." I said to her. "I died when I was 18 after I saved my sister from falling into a frozen pond."
"Y-you died?" She asked me, her face still frozen in a shock. I nodded my head.
"Yes. I died when I was 18 years old one day when I took my little sister out to teach her ice skating and I saw that the ice was starting to break underneath her. I grabbed this stick, "I looked at my staff, "And I managed to grab her and throw her away from the breaking ice. Fortunately she was safe, but as for me, I fell into the ice and drowned." My mind flashed back to that day.
"JACK!" My little sister screamed as I fell into the frozen pond. I shook my head, trying to get the thought out of my head.
"And then, later that night, the Man in the Moon brought me back to life as Jack Frost." I continued to tell her about how for 300 years, I did everything I could to get people to believe in me so they could see me, but no one ever did. I told her about how I met the guardians and how we defeated Pitch Black, and I told her about Jamie, the first person to ever see me. And then, I told her about how I finally became a Guardian. The Guardian of Fun. I went on and on for what seemed like hours, telling her everything. Sne continued listening. I felt a little weird because I've never exactly been very open to anyone about my life.
After I was done talking, I turned to look at her. "Your turn your majesty." I said to her and she blushed for a second before clearing her throat and told me everything about her. I already knew alot about her from the magic snow globe North gave me but I didn't tell her 'cause I didn't want to sound like a creeper. I listened as she told me her entire life story up 'till now. When she was done, she said to me "You know, I've never been this open about my life to anyone, not even Anna for that much."
"Yeah. Actually, neither have I." We smiled at each other befoer she looked down at her hands and played with them. After a while, she looked back up at me and asked "Could you teach me how to control my powers better?"
"Sure!" I exclaimed. Whoa, I sounded a little too excited there.
"Really?" She asked me, a huge smile overcoming her face. I nodded my head at her.
"Of course." I said. Then, in a blur, I found her wrapped around me in an embrace. I gasped, then I relaxed. She was so warm. So warm that I hugged her back. She quickly let go of me, her face flushed.
"Um, I am sorry." She apologized. "I must've gotten a little excited."
"No worries." I said to her. I kind of wished we could of kept hugging each other. "Would you like to start today?" I asked her. She happily nodded her head. "Yes, please."
I laid my staff against my chair and approached her. "Here, give me your hands." She lifted her hands and laid them on mine so we were now pretty much holding each others hands. My stomach started feeling weird and I could feel my heart beat a little faster.
"First, we're going to start with this.."
