Jack and Elsa left the airport, rain starting to trickle down from the cloudy skies, Jack's hand wrapped around Elsa's as they drove down the highway to their new home. Home. Elsa had always wanted one of her own, and finally, she was able to get one with the one she fell for back in high school. Jack popped a CD into the CD player, skipping to the fifteenth track.

"What CD is this?" Elsa asked, thumbing through Jack's enormous collection of CD's in a black case.

"Remember back in high school when the theatre department did the Sound of the Movies for their spring showcase?"

"I do, why do you ask?" Elsa asked, raising an eyebrow.

"My parents made a recording of the songs that were sang that night. I thought maybe we should listen to this particular song on our way to the house."

"Ookay.." Elsa replied, placing the CD case back on the ground. "It probably sounds horrid. I had laryngitis right before that."

"You sounded fine, just listen and relax."

Elsa nodded and sighed, the first few notes of the song bringing back memories from the spring showcase.

"I have confidence in sunshine
I have confidence in rain
I have confidence that spring will come again
Besides which you see I have confidence in me

Strength doesn't lie in numbers
Strength doesn't lie in wealth
Strength lies in nights of peaceful slumbers
When you wake up - Wake Up!

It tells me all I trust I lead my heart to
All I trust becomes my own
I have confidence in confidence alone

"Wow, that actually sounds pretty good for a recording." Elsa said, beginning to hum to the rest of the song, Jack catching her in the corner of his eye. He smiled and turned the volume up a little more. Elsa smiled and began to sing the last two lines of the song, rolling down the window as she belted out the

"I have confidence in confidence alone
Besides which you see I have confidence in me!"

"Bravo, bravo!" Jack tapped his steering wheel. "Encore, encore!"

"Jack!" Elsa blushed, gently nudging his arm.

"What? You still have a great set of pipes, admit it."

"I guess I do, huh?" Elsa said.

"We're here." Jack said, slowing down as he pulled into the driveway of a two story home. Elsa opened the passenger door, her feet met with wet grass as she stepped out of the passenger side. Jack tossed her a set of keys, Elsa catching them on the first toss. "If you'll do the honors?"

Elsa nodded, stepping up the concrete steps leading to the front door. She slipped the key inside of the lock, turning the key as she twisted the "L" shaped door handle. Her mouth slightly fell open as she took the first steps into their new home, nothing in any room except for a couch, a TV with a stand, a microwave sitting on a cardboard box, and a mini fridge, all sitting in the living room. "It's...quite big."

"We do have a LOT of stuff though," Jack reminded her. "Which reminds me, our other things will be coming either tomorrow or Friday so I'll be taking two days off in case it comes on either day."

"You don't have to, I can always stay here."

"The orientation for your job? Remember?"

"Oo that's right." Elsa remembered.

"Wanna see your room? The bed just came today and I'm sure you'll love the bed set that's on it."

"Of course, I'm glad to hear I'm not sleeping on the floor." Elsa giggled, as she dashed up the stairs to the first door on the right. Her eyes widened with happiness as Jack flipped on the lights. On the full sized bed lay an icy blue duvet, folded neatly in half over a pale pastel mint green sheet set. A few tears fell from her eyes as they locked with a set of dolls, a red head and blonde doll sitting next together on top of the pillows. "M-my old doll! Where in the world did you get them!"

"You've got your sister to thank for that. She had this premonition you'd be moving away so she went hers with yours to keep you company."

"Oh Anna," Elsa qietly whispered to herself. "Anna. I NEED TO CALL HER." Elsa reached into her pocket, pulling out her slim iPhone, dialing Anna's number. "Anna? Oh good, you're still up."

"Took you long enough to call. You two doing things you don't want me knowing about?"

"You're sick."

"You never know, you're that age-"

"I'm going to cut you off right there. Now, I called because I'm here. In the house. With the dolls. Thank you, by the way." Elsa smiled, plopping onto the bed.

"They were awfully lonely in the attic. I couldn't just send one."

"Because I would miss you so much?'

"Exactly why. Have you called mor yet?"

"No, but I will when I get through talking to you."

"Elsa?"

"Hm?"

"Father locked himself in his room after her read your letter. He's really heartbroken."

"Anna, can we talk about this some other time?"

"Y-yeah. Sure. Well I should go, gotta get up early tomorrow. Love you, Els."

"Love you too, Anna." Elsa sniffled, wiping her eyes as she hung up. She sniffled and thumbed through her contacts, calling her mothers phone.

"Elske?"

"Mor," Elsa smiled. "Made it safe and sound."

"I'm glad. Have you been to the house?"

"Sitting on my bed as we speak," Elsa flopped back onto her pillows, the "Anna" doll in her hand. "I see Anna sent over the dolls."

"She knows how much you adored them. Elsa?"

"Yes, mor?"

"We both love you very much, you know that right?"

"Mmhm."

"He misses you. You and your father should sit down and talk, when everything settles down. You don't have to, it's your choice."

"I..I don't think anytime soon will work. I've got orientation in two days and I'll be bombarded with projects."

"That's understandable, love. Whenever you're ready. It's getting late, I should let you go. I love you, Elsa."

"Jeg elsker deg, mor." Elsa choked, hanging up. She placed the phone on the bed, breaking down into tears as she buried her face into a pillow. Jack stepped into the doorway, two cups of heavily sweetened coffee, just the way they liked their coffee, in hand.

"Hey, I brought us some...coffee." He sat the cups on the nightstand, sitting on the bed and scooping the sobbing blonde up into his arms. "Hey, what's wrong?"

"I"m a horrid person, Jack!" Elsa cried, her eyeliner and mascara running down her cheeks, black smudges left behind on the pillow case. "I..I ran away from home because I can't get along with my father who doesn't have faith in anything I do! Ugh! I hate this!" Elsa cried, Jack pulling her head close to his heart.

"You did what you had to do. Your future isn't your fathers decision. It's yours and you followed your gut instinct and went outside of your comfort zone." Jack reassured the blonde, undoing her blonde braid as he ran his fingers through her hair. "You just need some time to re-adjust to a new routine. And find your way around town, because you don't want to get lost. Trust me."

Elsa sniffled, wiping off the running makeup and looking up to the brown haired cutie. "Why is it that you're always right?"

"Because...I am." Jack smiled, "booping" her nose. "And on that note of being right,"

Elsa's stomach growled.

"You're probably starving."

Elsa softly chuckled, placing her hands on her stomach. "Pretty observant, I'll give you that." She winked.

"Chinese, pizza, or sushi?"

"Why not all three?" Elsa asked, being a hundred percent serious.

"Did I hear you right? All three?"

"There's this great invention called "leftovers" for when you need food for the next few days, and I;m sure all you have in that fridge of yours is soda, water and poptarts."

"AND carrots."

"Blech."

"Just for you, Els," Jack smiled, placing a kiss on her cheek. "All three is it. Any special requests?"

"You've never seen my sister and I eat have you?"

"Can't say that I have."

"You better let me do the ordering .You'll like my system, trust me."

"Did you talk to her?" Adgar asked as he tuned the page of his book, Idunn pulling the sheets and duvet over herself and her husband.

"As in "her", you mean Elsa, right?"

"Is she alright?"

"She's fine, Adgar." Idunn replied, turning her body toward her husband. "She's at that age where she is supposed to be starting her own life. The same will happen with Anna once she gets ready for college."

"Idunn," Adgar sat his book down on his lap. "I can't help but picture something happening to her while she's with that...that punk."

"Adgar, Jack is a perfectly fine young man. They're the same age, and he's got a steady job-"

"Working at a pastry shop? Idunn, that is not a steady job."

"He runs a well known bakery, elske. A bakery that he himself uses to train the incoming chefs for the Disney Resorts." Idunn replied, tossing Adgar's book to the side as he began to pick it up. "You don't have to like him, but isn't our daughter's happiness, both Elsa and Anna's, our priority?"

Adgar was speechless, looking down at the sheets as he sighed. "Our priority.."

"Yes. A priority."

"What if they have se-"

"Goodnight, Adgar." Idunn turning out the light.

"But darling, what if they get into a situation they can't get out of?"

"They're smart enough to protect themselves. Now go to sleep."

"Chow mein, chicken fried rice, Hawaiian pizza with extra Canadian bacon, spaghetti, kung pao chicken," Jack examined every single item of food Elsa took the liberty of ordering and having delivered to the house. "Barbecued pork, broccoli beef, orange chicken, chicken subgum, crab puffs, tuna nigiri, California rolls and teriyaki chicken?"

"Welcome to the diet of the Frøberg sisters, Mister Frost." Elsa smiled, helping herself to a box of chow mein with her chopsticks. "Wow, this stuff is better than than the stuff back in Heartford."

"And where do you expect to keep all of this food? My fridge isn't big enough."

"We'll put it in the garage. It's cold enough back there and we'll eat it tomorrow." Elsa replied, munching on a crab puff.

"You and your sister sure have an affinity for food." Jack said, taking a bite of nigiri.

"Runs in the family. Especially on my father's side. He would tell Anna and I stories about how his great-great-great grandmother and her sister had horrendous appetites and would eat everything in sight, especially the Belgian chocolate."

"Oh really now? And I assume you've developed their appetite as well."

"Guilty as charged. Especially on semester breaks. Anna would come over to my dorm and we'd stay up until the break of dawn and eat ice cream out of those giant plastic tubs you get at the grocery store while watching I Love Lucy reruns."

"So I figure I need to go shopping for when your sister comes." Jack sighed, resting his back against the couch, noticing Elsa starting to nod off as she struggled to bring the chopsticks full of chow mein to her mouth. "I think it might be bedtime for you, missy." Jack said.

"Mm? Nah, I'm fine," Elsa blushed, her eyelids feeling heavier by the second as she sat the chopsticks down on the container. "Just about to catch a (yawn) second wind." She tiredly smiled.

"Nope, to bed with you." Jack said, scooping Elsa up into his arms.

"But I dun wanna.." Elsa yawned once more, snuggling into Jack's chest. "Brush my teeth first.."

"Okay, but hurry up." Jack said as he carried her into the stark white bathroom, giving the blonde some pricacy.

Elsa tiredly opened the counter drawers, pulling out a tube of winter fresh tooth paste, a circular container sitting under a pack of shaving razors. "What the..." Pulling the container from the drawer, she opened the blue sphere, a packet of pills resting under a hand-written note that read "For: Big Sis."

Elsa shook her head, opening the note.

"Just in case you two decide to take things a bit further, and for those irregular cycles."

Elsa blushed, shoving the container into her pocket. She quickly squeezed toothpaste onto her blue toothbrush and brushed her teeth as fast as she could, catching her breath as she rested her hands against the sink. She looked into the mirror, her hair still down, a bit tousled from Jack taking down her braid. She pulled the blue container from her pocket and gulped, opening the lid and popping one of the small blue pills out of the plastic. "Well, my cycles are irregular..." She whispered to herself. "And..we..I don't know..." She hesitated for a moment, but shook her head as she turned the faucet on, filling an empty cup with water, plopping the pill onto her tongue. She brought the cup to her mouth and swallowed the pill, letting out a sigh of relief as Jack knocked on the door.

"You okay in there, snowflake?"

"Yeah! J-just a minute!" Elsa responded, shoving the container back in her pocket as she opened the door. "You're right," She yawned. "I guess I am a bit tired."

"I'll walk you to your room." Jack smiled, leading her by the hand out of the bathroom and up the stairs.

"Um, Jack?"

"Yep?"

"Where..where are you sleeping tonight?"

"The couch. My bed is coming tomorrow so the couch will do for now."

"Oh..I see." Elsa replied, biting her lip. "Will you wait here a minute?"

"Sure..." Jack raised an eyebrow as Elsa closed the door behind her, changing into a pair of purple shorts and white tank top from her bag. She took a deep breath and swung the door open, Jack already in his pajama bottoms and sweatshirt.

"You're not sleeping on that horrendously uncomfortable couch."

"Okay, so where exactly am I going to sleep? My car?"

"N-no.." Elsa blushed. "In..in here."

"Elsa,"

"I'm scared, alright?" Elsa blushed. "Just for tonight, please."

"If it'll make you feel better, alright." Jack smiled as Elsa scooted over to the left side of the bed, placing a pillow between her and the empty side. "A barrier huh?"

"You're a tricky one, Frost. You stay on that side, I'll stay on this side."

"You got it, snowflake." Jack said, turning off the lights, climbing onto the empty side of the bed as Elsa pulled the covers over themselves. "Goodnight, Elsa."

"Godnatt, Jack." Elsa yawned, her hand reaching over the pillow, resting it on his shoulder. Jack quietly chuckled, placing a kiss on her delicate hand as his right hand reached for his shoulder. Elsa gently tugged at his shoulder, Jack looking over to the half-asleep blonde. "turn this way."

Jack turned over, their fingers intertwining as their hands rested on the pillow, his right hand gently brushing against Elsa's warm cheek. "I love you."

Elsa's eyes fluttered open, warmly smiling as she removed the pillow, Jack drawing her closer to his chest. "I love you too, Jack."
