A/N: Hey! Just wanted to let you know that there is a time jump to half the end of the school year. It's the beginning of April. Somewhere in that time. I did mention it in the story. I just wanted to give you a heads up in case you don't see the part :)
Elsa's POV
It's been at least half the year since I came to Whitewater High School. It's been very great so far. I've been hanging out with Jack and his friends at lunch. Me and Jack are the best of friends now. Whenever I need help or he does, we help each other in our time of need. He's still with Rupunzal still. She keeps trying to humiliate me in front of everyone. But Jack helps me come with comebacks that makes her so p*issed off. I'm not scared of her anymore. It just doesn't bother me anymore. Sometimes Anna would catch her mouthing off at me, so she'd start to mouth off at her. Even Anna would humiliate her. You may be thinking 'Elsa? Did she find out about you and Jack being friends?'. To answer your question. No. She doesn't. I mean she still thinks that I'm trying to hit on Jack. But no. I mean. I might have a slight crush on him. But he is already dating Rupunzal. I don't want to get myself into a huge mess.
I woke up to the sound of my alarm. I lifted my arm and clicked the bottom of my clock to shut it off. I sat up and stretched my arms up. Almost like I was reaching the sky. I threw my blanket off of me and got up. I walked to my bathroom and started to do my usual morning routine. After I finished I pulled my hair back into a ponytail and walked to my bedroom dresser.
I didn't really want to dress up much so I threw on a white crop t-shirt and light, jean shorts. I pulled on some jesus sandals and a gradient blue zip up hoodie. It was still a little chilly outside so I wanted to bring a hoodie. I then grabbed my backpack and headed downstairs.
As I walked down I started to smell breakfast. Bacon. You can never go wrong with bacon! I mean who doesn't love bacon? I caught sight of Anna stuffing her face with pancakes as well as bacon. I smiled to myself.
I grabbed a plate from the cabinet and put two pancakes and a few pieces of bacon on my plate. I sat across from Anna at our small, wooden, round table. I started to eat when Anna spoke. "Hey." I looked up and saw her mouth bloated with food. I tried not to laugh but that failed. I started laughing. "What? I love pancakes!" She said laughing too.
I looked over my shoulder and saw mom on the phone. Probably another work call. But my curiosity took the better of me. I turned over back to face Anna. "Do you know what the call is that she is on?" I asked. She chewed a few times and then swallowed her food. "I think it's with the law enforcement. She's still trying to figure out who killed our father." I nodded taking another bite of my pancakes. If you ever would ask my mother who she calls most of the time. It's basically only 2 places. Work and the Law Enforcement. Our mom has been paying the Law Enforcement to keep on finding the murder who murdered our father. Our mom and dad have been the happiest couple that anyone had ever seen. But that was before his unfortunate demise. I saddened at the thought.
Anna and I finished our breakfast and grabbed our backpacks and we headed out the door.
Time had passed quite quickly during classes. We didn't have anything new. We mostly just had some worksheets to do and watch videos about the classes.
It was lunch time and I headed to the table were my friends were sitting. I saw them all sitting down waving over to me. I sat next to Jack and he smiled to me. "Hello Elsa." Jack said wrapping his arm around my shoulders. I blushed a little.
"Are you blushing Elsie?" He asked. I laughed a little. "No. What are you talking about?" I said still blushing. He chuckled. We started to eat our lunch when I saw Jack take a cookie I got and he was about to eat it before I stopped him. "Hey! That's mine!" I said as I reached out to get it back from him. "Try and get it if you can!" He laughed while I was trying to grab it from him. We fought a little like this for a few minutes till I finally got it from him and took a bite. His jaw hung open and I laughed. "That's now fair!" He said. I laughed but then I split the cookie in half and handed it to him. He pointed to his mouth. I then put the cookie in his mouth and took it happily. We smiled at each other and looked at each other. We stayed there for a moment and then burst out laughing. I saw that our whole table had their eyebrows raised or they were laughing too.
We eventually stopped until our stomachs hurt.
"You guys good?" Meridian asked. I nodded my head and so did Jack. "You guys are so cute together you know." Astrid said. I felt myself blushing again and looked over at Jack to see a tint of pink on his cheeks too. He was rubbing the back of his neck too.
Do we seem like a good couple? I mean. We've been very good friends but he's never known much about me except that I am a girl that has developed into a more confident person over the one that fell on her lunch tray and got chocolate milk on her shirt. I don't know but I feel as if I'm feeling a sort of connection between us for the past few months. But me and him could never be a thing. He is dating a more popular girl than what I am. But we are friends. But deep down...l wish that we could be something more. What is this feeling? Could it be...love? I don't know what it is. But sometimes I wish it would go away. Because as I have that feeling. I need to keep reminding myself that I will never be his. Not someone like me.
"Welp, I'll see you all later. Me and Astrid gotta go and study for mathematics." Hiccup said while getting up with Astrid and leaving the cafeteria.
"I've got archery. See ya." Merida said while leaving behind Hiccup and Astrid.
"I've gotta go too." Belle said. She left not soon after.
That left me and Jack behind at an empty table. We stood for a few minutes until Jack spoke. "Elsa. When do you have free time to get out of school?"
"After lunch. Why?"
Jack smiled, "I want to show you something. If you don't mind."
"I don't mind at all. Where are we going?" I asked getting more and more curious by the minute.
"I'm not gonna tell you. It's a surprise." He said with his cheeky smirks.
"Your not gonna kidnap me are you?" I asked raising my eyebrow. He laughed. "Why would I do that? We've been very good friends. Do you not trust me anymore?"
"I never said that." I laughed. He laughed too.
"Are you gonna come?" Jack asked.
"Sure."
"Yay!" He said cheerfully.
After lunch we got in the car and drive to wherever he was taking me. I don't know why but I felt nervous. We stayed silent for the whole ride and we then arrived.
I got out of the car and looked around. It looked like a national park. I looked over to see a sign. It read:
StoneFalls Park
I've heard of this place but I've never been to it. I saw beautiful green trees and green grass that had flowers blooming in all sorts of colors. Blue, red, pink, and orange. Basically all of the colors of the rainbow.
"Like it huh?" Jack asked behind me. I nodded my head vigorously. He smiled. He walked in front of me and took my hands. His touch felt electrifying. I never wanted to let go of him.
"There's something even better I want to show you. And no one else knows about it." He said looking in my eyes.
"Okay." was all I could say before I felt him dragging me down the park.
We then came to a stop were there was a natural stone wall with vines falling down touching the grass. And next to us and on the right side was a river down below.
"Threw here." Jack said pointing to the vines. I raised my eyebrow. There is nothing there except stone and vines. He then moved his hand threw the vines as if he was invisible to the wall. I gasped.
"Woah..."
"Come!" He said pulling me threw with his grip around my right wrist. I found myself walking threw a dark cave and we were running out of light. My heart started beating really fast. Where is he taking me? Why are we in a dark cave? Questions filled my mind.
But that all washed away as soon as I saw a bright opening at the end of the cave. We walked together and as we came out of the cave I gasped. There were flowers blooming in a load of colors on the ground. There were two willow trees that had their leaves moving with the wind. And ahead of me was were I found myself on a cliff looking out over a lake. There were tall green mountains on the water line of the lake. I looked back at Jack who was smiling behind me.
"Oh Jack! It's beautiful!" I said happily. I didn't really think of it but I wrapped my arms around his neck in a hug. I then felt him slowly wrap his arms around my waist.
"I'm glad you like it Elsie." He said. We broke apart and decided to sit down and enjoy the view.
About an hour had passed and we were sitting with our legs hanging over the edge taking in the breathtaking scenery before us. I then felt my hand shift over a little bit until it was touching Jacks. Not even five seconds later he moved his hand on top of mine.
We looked at each other and our eyes met. I saw his eyes shift down to look at my lips and look back up to meet my eyes. He moved a little closer and so did I.
We were an inch apart until I felt his lips collide with mine. I felt a sudden spark in me explode and I felt a feeling of electricity flowing threw me. I then felt his hand move up to meet my cheek and he pulled me in closer. I happily accepted and we kept on going. With each second of the beautiful moment our kiss got even more passionate by the second.
We then broke apart breathing heavily. We both smiled as we looked into each others eyes.
"That was umm..." I said but Jack finished the sentence."
"...breathtaking?..." He said rubbing the back of his neck.
I blushed a little bit and nodded my head.
I looked back out to the view and we sat like we did before. I leaned my head onto Jack's shoulder and he leaned his head onto mine.
We sat and took in this moment in silence.
I never wanted to leave this place. Or this moment.
I didn't want to leave Jack.
