Back Home
"Welcome home you two!" Elsa exclaimed running out of the castle doors into the courtyard. Anna laughed and hugged her sister. "Thanks Elsa." Kristoff was next to climb out of the sleigh. He went to grab the bags, but before he could get there, Elsa had lifted them all and carried them back to their room with her powers. Kristoff smiled at his sister-in-law, "thank you" he said, looking at the ground and scratching his head. Anna smiled, she loved how he always did that when showing any sort of appreciation.
"Are you two hungry?" Elsa asked. Anna nodded, "famished" she said. "Well, come on, I got the chefs to prepare a huge lunch buffet!" Anna smiled wide and linked arms with Kristoff, and then Elsa. The three began to walk towards the dining hall Sven following closely behind. Along the way, Hans joined them, linking arms with Elsa. It wasn't long before Olaf also found them, shouting "Anna's home!" at the top of his lungs… or whatever his equivalent was. "Hi Olaf!" Anna greeted the snowman giggling. Once the necessary warm hugs were exchanged, the six resumed their walk towards the dining hall.
They spent hours in the dining hall, feasting and recounting the last two weeks. Anna and Kristoff told stories of their trip, at least the outdoor parts. Elsa explained that most of her time was spent working, with a few breaks to visit with Hans. Olaf had spent his time playing with the village children, and exploring the castle gardens. Hans wasn't up to much, reading a few books, spending time with Elsa, and taking walks around the gardens. And Sven, he slept, ate carrots, and pulled Anna and Kristoff around.
Once everything had been recounted, the girls kicked everyone out so that they could spend a little time together. Olaf and Sven immediately ran outside to play together, while Kristoff and Hans decided they should get to know each other a little better. Together, they began to walk, and talk about their lives a little.
Meanwhile, in the dining hall Anna was begging Elsa to show her her new room. While they were on their honeymoon, all of Anna's and Kristoff"s belongings were organized and placed into a master suite, that the two of them would share. They were put in a hallway that hadn't been used for years, a hallway reserved for them and their children. Elsa had strategically placed it however, so that it was still extremely close to Elsa's room, and her hallway, that she would move into once she married. "Please?" Anna whined. "No," Elsa laughed, "you and Kristoff must see it at the same time!" Finally, Anna relented. "Ok." She sighed.
The girls sat in silence for a few moments once again, before Elsa looked towards Anna. "So?" she said, "how was it?" Elsa gave Anna a knowing look, and Anna's eyes widened. Anna never expected Elsa to actually wonder about that sort of thing, she was so well read after all. "You've read the books, no?" Anna replied, her cheeks reddening. "Well, yes… But I've heard it's different… you know… in real life." Elsa reddened too, looking away. All of the sudden she was ashamed of her question. "It was, special. It hurt a little the first time, but the feeling is amazing… It started out awkward, but as we began to get to know each other… better, the whole thing got better too…" Anna said, looking back at her sister. "Why, Elsa?" "Just, thinking about the future." She replied.
Anna's eyes widened and she screamed, "AHHHHH, ELSA. REALLY, YOU AND HANS? WHEN!?" Elsa giggled at Anna's enthusiasm. "No, no. We talked a little about it, but nothing is official, he hasn't actually proposed." "Oh." Anna said, a little disappointed. "What did you guys say?" "We just said that we would like to marry, but we should wait a little longer. Everyone is still hyped up from your wedding, and there are definitely still some mixed feelings about Hans…" Elsa explained. Anna nodded, "yes, but Elsa, if you guys love each other, why wait. You have to listen to your heart, not your head!" Elsa smiled, "it's not so simple for a queen, both must be involved. I am fairly certain that one day, Hans and myself will marry, but its not yet the right time." Anna sighed, not wanting Elsa to wait just for everyone else. Elsa and Hand had to think of themselves too. But she knew her sister a little too well. She would never do something for herself if in anyway, it could mean harm to someone else. Hence why she stayed locked up willingly for 13 long years. So instead of pushing it, Anna just laid a hand on her shoulder. She knew that one day Elsa and Hans would marry each other, it was meant to be.
"Well, how about we go find Kristoff and see our new room then?" Anna asked. Elsa nodded, "ok." And the two left, on the hunt for the mountain man turned Prince.
