"Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear, oh dear," Mrs. Andalasia whisper-chanted quickly after Elsa told her that she was back. "Ooh I knew I shouldn't have let you go," she laughed. "As you've probably presumed, Aurora has been put in as Princess Buttercup, and it simply wouldn't be fair if I took that role from her to make room for you."

"It's okay if I'm not Buttercup," Elsa offered, "I can be a background character or a makeup artist, anything you need really. I just want to be back here."

Mrs. Andalasia smiled at Elsa and nodded, "You can be my assistant! Now that Jack is getting busier and busier with his countless positions here, I'll have you to assist me with anything that comes our way! And I'll bet you're better than Jack at picking out fonts and helping girls out of caught zippers," she chuckled.

"That sounds absolutely perfect," Elsa beamed.

Just then, Jack entered carrying a large, white piece of poster paper and a can of paintbrushes. "I'm sorry I'm late, Ms. A. I was arguing with the student council about… Elsa" he breathed as he noticed Mrs. Andalasia's company.

"Hi Jack," Elsa smiled shyly.

"Jack, Elsa has decided that she wants back in business! She is now my new lovely assistant and can help you with all of these little chores you seem so fond of."

"That's great," Jack managed to say while catching the breath that the sight of Elsa took away.

After remaining in her frozen, smiling position at the sight of Jack, Elsa snapped out of her hypnotic state and offered to help him with the poster paper.

"Are you any good with a paintbrush?" Jack winked at her.

"I'm alright," Elsa giggled.

"Perfect!" Mrs. Andalasia exclaimed. "Elsa, your first task as my new assistant is to create a poster for the show! Be as creative as you like."

At that moment, Peter knocked on Mrs. Andalasia's office door and told her that everyone was ready to rehearse.

"Oh my!" she responded, "Jack, you and Elsa brainstorm ideas for the poster, I'll get started on one of the scenes you aren't in."

As she and Peter left the room, Elsa and Jack awkwardly moved the poster to the table, avoiding eye contact as much as possible.

"So what made you come back?" Jack asked, breaking the silence.

"Um… I broke up with Gaston," Elsa uttered.

Jack immediately sat down and pulled her into the seat next to him, "Well go on," he urged.

"Well, there isn't much more to it… I just… stood up to him… and,"

"Elsa, I want to hear about this," Jack encouraged, "What made you finally do it? How did he react? How are you feeling?"

"I… uh… well," Elsa started. Jack was making her more nervous than she had ever felt before. "I can't really remember how it started. All I know is that I brought you up, and he hit me. And I told him that he was never going to hit me again-"

"Wait," Jack interrupted, "You brought me up, and that made him hit you?" His face was solemn and confused.

"Well it wasn't like… I don't know… he brought up that night. The one where you saved me. I mentioned your name, and he didn't know it was you that saved me. He thought it was a random person."

"And he assumed that we were fooling around because I was at your place so late at night," Jack finished quietly.

"Yeah," Elsa confirmed, remembering Gaston's accusations.

"I am so sorry," Jack breathed, taking Elsa's hands into his. "You shouldn't have been punished for me deciding to come by and snoop around in your business."

"Jack, no, you saved me. Gaston was going to do something really bad that night, and if you weren't there, he would have gone through with it. Jack, don't be sorry for that. I'm still so grateful for it," Elsa assured him, moving her chair closer to his and holding his hands more firmly.

"You mean it?" Jack smirked hollowly.

"Oh Jack, of course I do," Elsa laughed, leaning her head onto his shoulder.

Jack, feeling more and more like he could understand Elsa, took one of his hands from their grasp on each other and moved his arm around her. "I'm so proud of you," he whispered into her ear as he placed his hand on her shoulder.

Just then, Aurora opened the door to the office and said, "Elsa, we need you to be on book." Finishing her sentence, Aurora noticed Jack and Elsa's closeness to each other and saw them holding hands.

Embarrassed and quickly getting up, Elsa grabbed a script from Mrs. Andalasia's desk, nodded, and headed towards the stage.

"What were you two doing in here?" Aurora questioned Jack. He sat still in his chair, too cemented in the moment to pay attention to her.

Not allowing herself to be ignored, Aurora walked towards him and repeated, "Jack, what were you and Elsa doing in the office while the rest of us are out there rehearsing?"

Standing up, Jack answered, "We were brainstorming poster ideas," as he walked past her and onto the stage.
