Chapter 11 pt.2
Elsa
I slowly wake up to the lights seeping through the curtains. There's this warm comfortable feeling surrounding me and I don't want to opens my eyes and let this moment slip away. Soon after those thoughts though, I feel a cool breathe tickle my ear and I realize the position I'm in. Jack and I are still in the position we were in last night and I can't believe I let this happen, I must've been so tired. Even though my mind is telling me to rip his arms away my body just wants to stay like this forever. Lucky for me, I don't have to make that decision because I feel Jack's eyelashes flutter open against my neck and his steady breathing stops. He removes his arms from my waist and brings them up to rub his eyes. He rolls over to the other side of the bed and sits up.
"Ugh, what time is it?" Jack says in a low raspy voice. I don't reply to him because I'm still disappointed that the warmth is gone and he doesn't even care about what he did. Noticing the lack of a reply Jack turns around and looks at me wrapped up in a blanket cocoon. I can tell by the smirk on his face that he remembers what happened and he's definitely up to something. "Awww, what's wrong Princess? Is somebody upset that I got up?" He asks.
yes. "NO, of course not, why would I be?" I shout back.
"Isn't it obvious, you miss me. Denial really doesn't suit you very much." Jack replies.
"Think whatever you want, we have to get ready for our classes and get this library mission over with, I wonder what the pairs will be?"
Of course, out of everyone on this team I have to be stuck with Jack, what a surprise.
"Looks like we're together on this one, Princess, try not to hold me back." He smirks.
"Sure, if you promise not to screw things up this time, Frost." I bite back. The frown on his face marks yet another victory for me.
"I wish the pairings could have been decided based on compatibility rather than our type of skill set." I point out.
"I think we're pretty compatible, if you know what I mean." He wiggles his eyebrows.
"Jack can you please just sto-..."
"Jack, Elsa, any sign of Pitch yet?" Hiccup interrupts through the ear piece.
"No sign of him yet. Are you sure he's even coming? Lunch is going to be over in 5 minutes." Jack retorts. There's a bit of hesitation and then Hiccup speaks up again.
"I guess you're right, guys let's pull back for today. We'll get him next time for sure." Everyone walks out of their hiding spots and head toward the doors.
"I wonder why he didn't show up?" I ask, "Oh well let's go, Jack."
"Ah, ah, ahh. Not so fast. What's the rush, we have like 5 minutes till the bell rings, why not hang out a bit here?" Jack asks.
"YOU, Jack Frost, want to hang out with ME in a LIBRARY. This is unbelievable." I say astonished.
"Hey! I can hang around in a library, no need to be so shocked about it." He pouts.
"Oh yeah. Then show me how." I demand while crossing my arms.
"Well first, I can mess with a certain blonde haired princess." He says coolly. Before I could register what he meant in an instant he made his shepherds staff out of ice and uses it to pull me towards him. Not wanting to give in, I flash some snow under his feet to throw off his momentum. Jack falls backward but I didn't think he would keep such a tight grip on his staff thus taking me with him. A loud thud is heard through the library but surprisingly nothing hurt. I open my eyes and realize that the reason I didn't feel pain was because Jack was under me to take the blow. His head is propped up against the bookshelf and his eyes are swirling around the room. He doesn't even notice that he still has his arms around me in a bear hug and won't let me get up.
"Jack! Are you okay? Let go!" I whisper.
"Yeah, I'm fine, no thanks to someone." He says bitterly, "As an apology you have to stay like this until the bell rings." He pushes himself up in a sitting position leaning his back against the books and pulls me in closer. He lays his head on my shoulder with his messy soft hair brushing my face.
"Jack, why are you doing this?" I ask struggling.
" 'Cause you owe me." He simply replies.
"I get that, but why like this?" I ask. I stop struggling and turn back to stare into his eyes,"Usually I just brush this off as you messing around but I can't imagine you doing this to anyone else. You're usually cold towards other girls and you don't let them get near you but with me you do things like this and it's confusing." Jack won't say anything so I continue talking. "Jack... after this mission we won't see each other anymore. If you keep doing things like this it'll be harder to leave each other."
"Who says we can't see each other anymore?" Jack finally speaks.
"It's one of the fundamentals of being a spy, if someone is targeting me they might hurt you as a way to lure me out and vice versa. That's why I'm so over protective of Anna." I say.
"I can protect myself, and I will never let anything happen to you. You're right that I wouldn't do this to anyone else because you're different from most people. I actually feel comfortable around you and I don't have to worry about you obsessing over me or trying to impress me all the time. There shouldn't be a problem with us being...friends." Jack replies while putting his head back on my shoulder.
"But Jack.."
"What!" He interrupts slightly irritated,"Why are you trying so hard to push me away, do you not trust me?" It's hard to tell exactly what he's feeling when I can't see his eyes but I respond anyways.
"It's not that, I just don't want either of us to get hurt."
"We're spies, we can handle a little pain. Especially when we're together." Jack looks up and shows a genuine smile. It's hard to argue with that. I look at him and smile back," You're right, thanks, Jack." I whispered
"What was that? Am I hearing you correctly 'cause it sounded like you said I was right?" He smirks.
"I didn't say anything!" I lie.
"No, I'm pretty sure you did." Suddenly the bell rings and people start rushing out of the library.
"Guess we'll never know." I say as I push him away a run towards the exit. As soon as I got out I couldn't control the blush on my face. We're just friends and he is just pulling another prank on me. Despite those thoughts, the conversation we just had makes me feel much more reassured and happy.
Jack
Why did Elsa have to ask me that out of no where, she got me completely off guard! I almost had a heart attack 'cause of her, Jesus Christ! Oh well, I think it's all good now. Actually, we're probably closer now than before, this is amazing! My thoughts are interrupted by the buzzing in my pocket. It's a text from Hiccup.
H: "Hey, Jack. We're all going to the lounge again, wanna come?"
J: "Sure, be there in sec."
I bolt over to the lounge area and in 5 minutes I was there standing in front of the entrance. Through the door I could hear yelling and things getting thrown around. I open the door, walk in, and the place is a mess! Flynn and Kristoff are behind one couch throwing pillows to Anna, Merida and Rapunzel who are hiding behind another couch on the other side of the room. I look around more and find Elsa and Hiccup in the kitchen talking casually as if this disaster isn't happening right before their eyes. I walk over to them and grab the stool next to Elsa.
"Anyone wanna tell me what's going on here?" I ask them.
"Oh, I was just showing Elsa my design for the new bike I'm about to make, it's gonna be awesome!" Hiccups replies.
"Yeah, that's great and all but I was referring more to the war zone that's 3 feet away from us."
"Oh that, they're just arguing about which movie to watch. The girls wanna watch Beauty and the Beast and the boys want Star Wars." Elsa answers.
"Really? Merida wants to see Beauty and the Beast." I ask skeptically.
"No, I think she just wants to fight." Elsa replies nonchalantly.
"Ah, that makes more sense. Don't you think we should brake this up though, it's getting late and I want to watch a movie." I say.
"Sure, why not," Elsa gets off the stool and walks to the middle of the room with a perfect queen like posture,"Enough of this! Let's sit down a discuss this rationally." she announces.
"Who made you the boss?" Flynn scoffs. Elsa then freezes his mouth shut.
" I did, anymore questions?" She asks with a fake smile.
"No sir!" Everyone replies.
"Good, now I want to watch The Greatest Showman, show of hands if you want to watch it." Elsa states. Everyone immediately raises their hands out of fear, Flynn even put both hands up.
"Perfect!" Elsa goes up to the TV and slides the disc in. Then she crawls onto the couch and wraps herself up in a fuzzy blanket. Everyone else proceeds to go to the same spot they were at last time and I decide to sit on the same couch as Elsa. Unlike last time, Elsa didn't bring her book and she was actually interested in the movie. Those guys left me without a blanket, but I don't want to go back to the room and get one.
"Psssst, Elsa. Can you share that blanket with me?" I whisper.
"Sure." She opens up the blanket but it isn't long enough to reach me. I scoot in closer until our shoulders are touching but we're still not fully covered. To heck with this. I pull Elsa closer to me so that her back and head are resting on my chest then I cover us with the blanket and snuggle Elsa like a teddy bear.
"Jack, I don't think friends are supposed to cuddle like this." Elsa whispers.
"Of course they can, it's perfectly fine. Look at the others." I say. She looks around and sees that everyone is in a similar position as us.
"I guess you're right, just this once though." She warns.
"Whatever you say, Princess." I mutter.
2 hours later
The movie finished and Elsa and I are the only two who stayed up for the whole thing.
"Ah, that movie was so good, who cares about race, they can be together if they want to be. Forbidden love is so tragic, don't you think, Jack?" Elsa asks. Forbidden love, huh, sounds familiar.
"Yeah, I agree but the feelings from a forbidden love are stronger than any other kind." I reply surprising myself. Elsa seemed in shock too.
"It's not too late, wanna go back to the room and call it a night." Elsa says. No, I don't wanna let go.
"Yeah, I guess. Wanna wake up the others? I ask.
"I think they're fine. Let's go before anyone catches us together." Elsa rushes me out the door and I don't think she's gonna like what she sees as soon as she get's out here.
"What are you two doing together, all by yourselves, in that dark room?" Lexi's nasally voice pokes out through the gang of six other girls.
"We aren't alone, our friends are in there too, and I don't think it's your business what we do in our free time." Elsa responds.
"I wasn't talking to you, loser, I was talking to Jackie here." She says in a stupid high pitched voice while batting her eyelashes.
"I agree with Elsa, just leave us alone and let us go to our room in peace." I state calmly. We walk past the girls and head toward our dorm down the hall.
"Why does that ugly new girl get to sleep in the same room as our Jackie, it's not fair!" One of the girls whines.
"Yeah, I bet she got some rich sugar daddy to buy that room for her, that slut." Another girl laughs.
"Why is Jack even nice to her? Is she THAT good in bed?" Says another. That's it! I can't listen to anymore of this, my powers are gonna explode. As if she read my mind Elsa reached out and grabbed my hand.
"Ignore them, Jack. I'm not taking anything they're saying to heart, I know who I am and they can think whatever they want." She said softly.
"You mean to tell me you're not the least bit angry with them?" I ask confused.
"I'm not mad, annoyed...yes, but not mad. Besides when this mission is over I never have to see their dumb faces ever again." she smiles
"So you're okay?" I ask. She nods her head and walks straight to her bed. Well I'm not okay. I poke my head out the hallway and the girls are still talking. They're all wearing clothes that barely cover their bodies and their faces are caked with makeup. Hmmm, I think they can handle a little bit of cold wind. I shut all the doors in the hall with a huge gust of wind and freeze all the door knobs locked. Then I send a huge wave of icy wind from the window directly at the girls. They're screaming and crying and trying to open the door to their rooms but failing.
"NOOOOOO! My makeup is literally melting off my face!" Lexi is crying.
"What do we do, we can't go anywhere looking like this!" Another girl shrieks.
I'm dying from laughter! I think they've had enough. I release my powers and head back into my room.
"What was that outside, I thought I heard something?" Elsa mumbles from being so tired.
"Nothing, just go to sleep, Elsa, we'll be pretty busy tomorrow." I reply.
"Okay, good night." Elsa closes her eyes and instantly falls asleep.
Good night, Princess
