While Elsa and Honeymaren were on their date, Ryder started walking up to them. Elsa wasn't really in the mood, for talking to others, considering the situation was in. However, she wanted to be nice, so she said, "Hi, Ryder. What's going on?"

Ryder explained, "Since we got all those supplies, including a bunch of food, we're going to be having a big dinner, tonight. Everybody's hoping you'll be there."

Honeymaren said, "My cutie-pie and I will both show up."

Ryder said, "Sounds good. I'll see you guys, at dinnertime."

After Ryder walked away, Elsa looked back at Honeymaren and said, "So, we'll probably be having a nice dinner."

Honeymaren replied, "Yes, but I'm guessing that Ryder and the others will be hogging up all the chips and chocolate. Also, I'm sure Yelena will frown upon everybody, for eating junk food."

Elsa said, "I probably shouldn't be asking this, but why is Yelena always so grumpy?"

Honeymaren replied, "She's actually a very sentimental woman. You just wouldn't be able to tell by her expressions."

Elsa sniffed herself and said, "I think it's been a day or two, since I last took a bath. I better take one before dinner."

Honeymaren replied, "You can take one, now."

Elsa said, "Um, okay. I'll be back, in a while."

Honeymaren replied, "Remember to wash yourself and your clothes at different times. You don't want your clothes to float away, again."

Elsa responded, "Right."

A few minutes later, Elsa walked back to her and Honeymaren's part of the forest. Honeymaren, who had gone on a walk, looked at Elsa and said, "Hi, cutie-pie. How was your bath?"

Elsa said, "Not great. I just bathed with a reindeer."

Honeymaren had a confused look on her face, while asking, "What are you talking about?"

Elsa explained, "The reindeer, that had left the herd, jumped into the lake and started taking a bath."

Honeymaren said, "My brother has told me a lot of eccentric stories, about reindeer, but this is certainly one of the weirder stories. Was it embarrassing?"

Elsa replied, "I think that goes without saying. It was one of the most humiliating situations, that I've ever been in."

Honeymaren said, "I don't know. It sounds kind of fun to me."

Elsa smirked and replied, "Then I'll go tell the reindeer to join you, the next time you decide to take a bath."

Honeymaren chuckled and said, "I better go tell Ryder, that the lost reindeer's been roaming around, nearby. That ought to get him excited. I'll be back, shortly."

Elsa replied, "Okay." Honeymaren started heading to Ryder, while Elsa got on a new set of clothes. She put on a light-blue shirt and a blue pair of pants. She didn't have a mirror that she could check her reflection in, but she felt like she looked okay.

A while later, Honeymaren walked back to Elsa, who was sitting on the couch. Elsa asked, "Did Ryder react well?"

Honeymaren sat next to Elsa and said, "Kind of. Currently, he's running around the forest in the hopes of finding the reindeer."

Elsa asked, "Do you think he's going to find it?"

Honeymaren said, "My brother's about as dedicated and passionate as Kristoff when it comes to reindeer. Because of that, I'm pretty sure he'll find it." She paused and said, "By the way, did you hear the crash fall, earlier?"

Elsa replied, "Yes I did. It was such a loud sound, that it made the reindeer throw a fit."

Honeymaren started looking concerned, while saying, "That doesn't sound good. Did he hurt you or anything?"

Elsa replied, "No he didn't. I was able to calm him down, by singing to him."

Honeymaren had an amused look on her face, while saying, "You bathed, with a reindeer and performed a musical number?"

Elsa looked very embarrassed, while replying, "Like I said, it's one of the most humiliating situations, that I've ever been a part of."

Honeymaren touched Elsa's hand, while saying, "Well, that whole mess is over, so you can forget about it and relax."

Elsa replied, "I guess that's true."

Honeymaren said, "The others are still getting ready, for tonight's dinner, so it's just you and me, girlfriend."

Elsa shyly replied, "Um, right. You're my girlfriend. That's something, that I'll have to get used to. Of course, I'm delighted that you're my girlfriend. It just feels weird. Do you think it feels weird?"

Honeymaren calmly responded, "It doesn't feel weird to me. It feels wonderful."

Elsa smiled, while saying, "Sometimes, the weirdest things can also be the most wonderful things."

Honeymaren replied, "I certainly don't disagree." Honeymaren sat closer to Elsa and kissed her.

Elsa heavily blushed, while saying, "Our new relationship is great. It's one of the best things, that's ever happened to me, but aren't you scared?"

Honeymaren said, "No I'm not. What would I be scared of?"

Elsa nervously replied, "We both love each other, which is a good thing, but there are certain people, who would have a different people. They'd be disgusted and offended, by our relationship. In certain parts of the world, women dating other women is considered vile and the same thing applies to men, who date men."

Honeymaren said, "We're in the Enchanted Forest, cutie-pie. The Northuldra people are completely accepting, when it comes to this sort of thing. Please, don't worry."

Elsa shyly said, "Well, there's another thing, to be worried about."

Honeymaren asked, "What is it?"

Elsa said, "Well, I've never been in love, before. If my sister found out, she might make a big fuss."

Honeymaren replied, "Cutie-pie, you and your sister have a very strong bond. I don't think she's going to be mad."

Elsa started looking more calm, while saying, "You're probably right. I'm sorry for overreacting."

Honeymaren replied, "It's quite alright, girlfriend." Elsa and Honeymaren shared another kiss.

About an hour later, Elsa and Honeymaren started walking to the others, while holding hands. They looked around and saw that the other Northuldra people had started sitting down and were beginning to eat their meals. Elsa and Honeymaren started greeting the others.

Elsa looked at Yelena, while saying, "Hi, Yelena. You're probably glad, about having more meal options, than usual."

Yelena looked unimpressed, while saying, "Your sister and her husband delivered too much junk food. The others have started gobbling it up. Their health will be damaged."

Honeymaren replied, "Some people will probably eat too many chocolates, but I'm sure that everything will be okay."

Ryder walked up to Elsa and shook her hand. He said, "Thank you, for finding the lost reindeer."

Elsa replied, "Well, I didn't really find him. He came to me."

Ryder said, "Regardless, you were a real help. You were the first person, in days, to see that reindeer. Plus, you must of done something, because when I found him, he was in a more peaceful mood."

Honeymaren said, "Maybe Elsa's singing calmed him down."

Ryder looked at Elsa, while asking, "You sang to him?"

Elsa felt embarrassed, while replying, "I'm afraid I did."

Ryder said, "After I heard about Kristoff singing to Sven, I tried singing to my reindeer. Most of them seemed to like it, except for that one reindeer. Maybe my voice was too loud."

Elsa and Honeymaren sat on a log and started grabbing some things, to eat. Elsa ate a salad, while Honeymaren ate some fruits. Ryder and most of the others started eating chips and chocolates.

Yelena nudged Ryder and said, "You better put down the junk food and start eating some healthy food." Ryder shook his head.

During dinner, Elsa and Honeymaren chatted with several of the other people that lived in the Enchanted Forest. Yelena told some tales, about her first couple of experiences, in the forest. Elsa was asked several questions, about her ice powers and about her past. Although she didn't feel like sharing everything, she answered a majority of the questions.

A while later, Ryder said, "Listen up, everybody." Elsa, Honeymaren, Yelena and the others stopped chatting and started looking at him. He said, "I think it's time, that we had dessert."

Yelena had a confused look on her face, while saying, "Dessert? You just ate a bunch of junk food. Your dessert better be something nutritious."

Ryder said, "Instead of finding something healthy, Kristoff got us something, that's delicious. He wanted it to be a surprise, so I've been hiding them, until now." He grabbed a couple of boxes and opened them. The box had donuts in them.

Yelena said, "Oh, no. Are you actually going to eat that crap?"

Ryder replied, "I sure am." People quickly started grabbing donuts, while Yelena gave them a disapproving look.

Honeymaren grabbed two donuts and handed one to Elsa. Elsa said, "I better not eat this."

Yelena replied, "That's a wise sentiment, Elsa. I'm glad you value your health."

Honeymaren nudged Elsa and said, "Come on, cutie-pie."

Elsa said, "Well, I guess eating one will be okay." Yelena rolled her eyes.

As the others were finishing up their desert, Honeymaren started reaching towards Elsa's lips. Elsa whispered, "What are you doing?"

Honeymaren whispered back, "I was just going to give you a kiss."

Elsa nervously whispered, "Everybody's here. We can't kiss, in front of them."

Honeymaren said, "So what? When we were teens, my brother was dating somebody, who was part of a traveling tribe. He kissed her, in front of everybody and although a few people were grossed-out, it wasn't a big deal."

Elsa whispered, "It's a big deal, for us, because nobody knows we're dating."

Honeymaren smiled, while saying, "Well, shouldn't they find out? I'm proud, to be your girlfriend."

Elsa whispered, "And I'm delighted, to be dating you, but I don't want everybody else, to know about us."

Honeymaren asked, "Why not?"

Elsa paused and tried to think of a reason, but nothing came to mind. She whispered, "Now that I think about it, maybe it wouldn't be so bad, if people knew the truth. However, I don't know how I feel, about kissing you, in-public."

Honeymaren replied, "Fair enough, but a cheek kiss is harmless enough, right?"

Elsa blushed, while saying, "I suppose so." Honeymaren kissed Elsa's cheek.

Ryder saw that and in response, he said, "What are you doing, Honeymaren?"

Honeymaren casually replied, "I was just kissing my girlfriend."

Ryder responded, "Okay."

Elsa looked at Honeymaren and whispered, "Did you actually say that?" Honeymaren nodded.

Ryder looked at Elsa, while saying, "By the way, I want you to know, that I'm okay with you dating my sister."

Elsa raised her eyebrows and said, "What? How did you know about me and her?"

Ryder explained, "I might be gullible, when it comes to Kristoff's tree antics, but I know my sister and I could tell that she liked you."

Yelena looked at Elsa, while saying, "Pretty much everybody knows you two had feelings, for each other."

Elsa had a confused look on her face, while asking, "How?"

Yelena shrugged her shoulders and said, "We just knew."

Honeymaren looked at Elsa, while saying, "I guess we weren't subtle at hiding our love."

Elsa replied, "You weren't even trying to hide."

Honeymaren said, "You're right and I hope you don't hide, anymore."

Elsa replied, "I don't see a reason, for hiding how much I love you, anymore." Elsa and Honeymaren kissed each other. None of the Northuldra people were mad or disgusted. If anything, they seemed happy. Honeymaren had become Elsa's girlfriend and that's something Elsa was becoming proud of, rather than scared of.

Meanwhile, Anna and Kristoff had returned to Arendelle and had returned to their royal duties. Anna was looking over her schedule, while she and Kristoff dined in one of their dining rooms. Anna put down her schedule and said, "Kristoff, I have a marvelous idea."

Kristoff replied, "If it involves reindeer or ice, I'm sure I'll love your idea."

Anna said, "It doesn't involve either of those things, but it does involve dancing."

Kristoff smiled, while replying, "I do like dancing, especially when it involves singing."

Anna said, "I think we should have a dance party. It'll give our trade partners and citizens a chance to loosen up and have a good time."

Kristoff replied, "Sounds good."

Anna smirked, while saying, "Also, I'm going to invite Elsa. As usual, she's been secretive and I've recently discovered that she has a secret crush. Elsa's never had a crush, as far as I know. This is big news and I'm going to find out who her crush is."

Throughout the following week, Elsa continued getting used to her new home. She helped gather wood, make meals, and most importantly, she looked after the Enchanted Forest and was always ready in case a magical threat came around. To further illustrate her dedication to protecting the forest, she often stood around with her hands pointed in the air. It was to symbolize that she was ready to freeze anybody who put the forest in danger. Honeymaren and the others appreciated Elsa's passionate heroism, but they couldn't resist chuckling when they saw her giving menacing stares to threats that didn't exist.

By that point, everybody in the Enchanted Forest knew that Elsa and Honeymaren were a couple. Although Elsa was nervous and shy, her new relationship wasn't as problematic as she expected it to be, because the Northuldra people were very accepting and open-minded. As the days of the week went on, Elsa and Honeymaren's relationship become stronger and closer. They continued spending lots of time, together, throughout the days and they slept by each-other during the nights. As much as Elsa had tried to deny her true feelings, she felt like she couldn't do that any longer. She loved Honeymaren. Honeymaren was her girlfriend and that made her very happy.

As the week was wrapping up, a message was sent to the Enchanted Forest. The message came from Arendelle. An Arendelle soldier rode on a horse to the Enchanted Forest. The soldier looked stern and serious, while getting off his horse. A group of Northuldra people saw the soldier. The soldier stared at Yelena, while handing her the message and saying, "Make sure the former queen gets this." Yelena nodded. The soldier returned to his horse and went away.

A few minutes later, Yelena walked to Elsa and Honeymaren's part of the forest. She was in a grumpy mood from all the walking she had to do, so she threw the message into Elsa's hair and walked away.

Elsa hadn't seen Yelena come by, but she did feel something in her hair. She started scratching her head, while saying, "I feel like there's something weird, in my head."

Honeymaren had an amused look on her face, while saying "I'm afraid that Yelena's gotten tired of you, because she came by and threw a paper into your hair."

Elsa looked surprised, while asking, "Yelena came by? I didn't see her or hear her."

Honeymaren jokingly replied, "Maybe you were so distracted, by my beauty, that you're struggling to notice anybody else."

Elsa responded, "I don't think that's the case." She took the message out of her hair and said, "I better see what this message is about." She started skimming through the message, before saying, "It's a message, from my sister."

Honeymaren said, "I'm hoping it's good news."

Elsa replied, "It's not really good news, but it's also not bad news."

Honeymaren asked, "What's going on?"

Elsa read more of the letter, before explaining, "Anna's throwing a dance party at her kingdom. She's inviting a bunch of people, from other kingdoms. In addition to that, she's invited me."

Honeymaren said, "Well, that sounds nice. I know you don't know many dance moves, but I'm sure it won't be that big of a deal. I'm assuming you're going to the party."

Elsa replied, "I'll probably only be seeing Anna, every once in a while, so when I get a chance to see her, it's a big deal."

Elsa continued reading the letter. When she got to the end of the letter, she started looking nervous. Honeymaren noticed that, so she asked, "What's up?" At first, Elsa was being silent, so Honeymaren gently held her hand and said, "Cutie-pie, what's going on?"

Elsa explained, "Anna expects me to bring my secret crush to the party."

Honeymaren said, "I don't see what the big deal is."

Elsa said, "Honey, Anna knows I have a crush on somebody, but she doesn't know who it is."

Honeymaren replied, "Well, this seems like a good opportunity, to tell her the truth."

Elsa shyly said, "I don't know."

Honeymaren asked, "What are you afraid of?"

Elsa said, "Of how Anna will react."

Honeymaren replied, "Well, I don't know your sister, as well as you do, but wouldn't she want you to be happy?"

Elsa said, "Of course."

Honeymaren replied, "Then you shouldn't be afraid to tell her that you're already dating your crush."

Elsa avoided eye-contact, while saying, "I suppose that makes sense."

Honeymaren said, "Look at me." Elsa looked back at Honeymaren, who said, "Elsa, are you ashamed of our relationship?"

Elsa replied, "No way. I love you and the relationship we've built together."

Honeymaren responded, "I feel the same way. I'm almost certain that Anna will approve, but Elsa, you don't need other people's approval. You're an adult and you're allowed to be free and be with who you want."

Elsa said, "You're right."

Honeymaren put her hand on Elsa's shoulder and kissed her cheek. As she had anticipated, Elsa started blushing, which was a sight she always enjoyed seeing. She said, "Elsa, I don't want to pressure you or make you feel uncomfortable. If you feel I rushed our relationship -"

Before Honeymaren could finish, Elsa said, "You didn't rush things. I've been taking things at a slow pace, because I've been scared. I've been afraid to be who I am and like what I like. It's one of the main reasons why my childhood was spent hiding in my bedroom, rather than playing and having fun. I'm so glad that you're so brave and bold. I love you."

Honeymaren smiled and replied, "I love you, too."

Elsa gave Honeymaren a kiss, before saying, "I truly am glad, to be dating you."

Honeymaren replied, "I'm delighted to hear that, girlfriend."

Elsa stuck out the hand, that Honeymaren wasn't holding and asked, "Will you be my date to the dance?"

Honeymaren replied, "Of course, my love." She kissed Elsa.

Elsa said, "The party's in less than a week." She stood up and started pacing around, while saying, "There's a lot we'll have to do in order to prepare for the party."

Honeymaren walked by Elsa, while replying, "I don't think there's that much, that we'll have to do. It's just a dance party."

Elsa said, "I'm guessing you've never been to a dance party."

Honeymaren replied, "That's true."

Elsa explained, "There's a lot of steps, that need to be taken, in order to be prepared. We have to comb our hair, get clean, wear our nicest clothes, learn how to dance and do anything else that party guests are required to do."

Honeymaren calmly replied, "Everything's going to be, fine. All the things, that we need, are easy to obtain. I've never really worn an outfit, that would be considered eloquent, by party standards. However, when your sister and the soldiers dropped by, they gave us plenty of dresses. As for getting clean, a long bath should take care of that concern."

Elsa said, "I don't know. Nobody, from around here, has a problem with bathing in a lake, but what if the royal people think we smell bad?"

Honeymaren replied, "They'll probably be a hundred people, at the party. If the royal guests are focusing, on how two people smell, then they need to get a life."

Elsa had a nervous expression on her face, while saying, "Neither of us know how to dance. If only one of us wasn't a good dancer, that might be okay, but if we both have bad dance-moves, we'll likely make a scene."

Honeymaren replied, "Come on, cutie-pie. We might not be professionally-trained dancers, but we can do a little dance if the situation calls for it."

Elsa asked, "Are you sure?"

In order to reduce Elsa's fear, Honeymaren gently pulled Elsa closer to her and started dancing with her. The two girlfriends didn't only knew the most basic type of dance-moves, so that's what they did. Elsa and Honeymaren stared into each-other's eyes, while doing a little dance. It was nothing fancy, but they both enjoyed it.

After their little dance had ended, Elsa said, "I guess this party won't be so bad, after all."

Honeymaren replied, "I think we're going to have a good time."

Ryder walked up to the girlfriends and said, "Hi, guys. I saw an overly-dramatic soldier come by and deliver a message for Elsa." He looked at Elsa, while asking, "Have you read it, yet?"

Elsa answered, "Yes I have."

Ryder said, "I hope I'm not being nosy, but what's the message about?"

Elsa explained, "I've been invited to a dance party that's being held at the kingdom of Arendelle."

Ryder replied, "Oh, that sounds like fun. I'm sure you'll be the coolest person at the party."

Elsa smirked, while asking, "Are you making an ice pun?"

Ryder said, "When there's a chance to make a good pun, I have to defrost my brain and make the most icy remarks that I can think of."

Honeymaren replied, "Brother, the ice puns are going to get old, if you keep using them."

Ryder responded, "Fair enough." He looked back at Elsa and asked, "Are you excited?"

Elsa fiddled with a piece of her hair, while saying, "I guess so. I've never been that great of a dancer and I've never really been the life of the party."

Honeymaren explained, "Anna still doesn't know, that I'm dating Elsa, but she does know that Elsa has a crush on somebody."

Ryder said, "Oh, relationship drama."

Elsa looked at Ryder, while asking, "Do you have any advice?"

Ryder casually said, "Just tell Anna that you're dating Honeymaren."

Elsa replied, "That sounds so simple and I wish life was that simple."

Ryder smiled, while saying, "Maybe things aren't as complicated, as you think."

After Ryder walked back to the others, Elsa stared at Honeymaren, while looking less afraid. She said, "Things won't be super easy or perfect, but I'm going to try hard, to be brave and honest."

Honeymaren replied, "I'm glad to hear that. Are you still worried about what Anna will think?"

Elsa started thinking about the time she had spent with Anna. During that time, Anna had been a loving, kind and fun-loving sister, who rarely judged Elsa. Elsa felt she couldn't ask for a better sister. She said, "I know Anna. She won't be mad and I'm pretty sure she won't disapprove of our relationship. I can't say I'm not nervous, but I'm also excited."

Honeymaren replied, "So am I."
