Kiss on the Back: Anna x Kristoff
"Ommph, ugh, arggh!"
Letting her arms fall to her sides, Anna dropped her head in frustration. The sleeves of her light yellow dress dropping down along with it.
Glaring at the soft puffy sleeves, she straightened back up and pulled the offending fabric back onto her shoulders and started the whole futile process all over again.
Straining her arms as far back as they would go she tried to reach the buttons that rested between her shoulder blades.
But though she was able to touch them with the very tips of her fingers she was as always unable to actually get a hold of them.
Rubbing her temples in an effort to keep from screaming at the top of her lungs, she pondered on whether or not she would be able to get out of her room and over to Elsa's without being seen.
This was the first time she had ever regretted turning down the offer of a ladies maid.
Stomping over to her door, she cracked it open just a sliver and peeked out.
The hallway was complete pandemonium.
Visiting royals and their maids and menservants were all over it. Going to and fro from room to room.
There was no way she would be able to get to Elsa's room with out running the risk of flashing someone.
Shutting the door with a roll of her eyes, Anna leaned up against it and considered her options.
Which as she thought about it were none.
She couldn't get to Elsa's so help from that quarter was out.
She couldn't change the dress because it was a gift from a visiting Queen and Elsa had made it clear that the woman wanted to see her in it.
Indulging in a brief moment of childish temper, Anna stomped her foot and yelled at the top of her lungs."Argghhhhh!"
Just as she was about to slam her head into a wall in hopes of jostling some idea out of it an obvious one occurred to her.
She couldn't go over to Elsa's with her dress hanging open in the back for everyone to see her corset but it should be fine if she went over there with a shawl wrapped around her shoulders, while holding her arms tightly to the sides so it couldn't decided to slip down and flash her front for anyone either.
She really hated this dress.
Nodding with resolution, Anna made to head for her wardrobe. But before she could take more that a couple steps a knock sounded at her door.
Letting out a huff as she turned around, the sleeves once again starting to creep downwards, Anna jerked them up with one hand while yanking open her door with the other.
"WHAT?!"
Stepping back a notch, Kristoff held up his hands in a gesture of surrender.
"Uh, sorry. I was just wondering if you were ready or..."
His voice trailed off as one of her sleeves escaped her shoulder yet again and began to slide down her arm. Blushing hotly, he spun around and said over his shoulder. "So..um..obviously you aren't ready quite yet. I'll just...get out of your hair."
Growling slightly, Anna shoved the sleeve back into place and grabbing a fistful of his shirt hauled him into the room.
Eyes wide, Kristoff let out a squeak. "Anna?"
Lifting her chin, Anna met his gaze head on and snarled. "This stupid dress is driving me crazy!Can you please, please button me up?"
Stammering, Kristoff stepped closer to her. "S..sure. I..I can do that."
Turning so that her back was facing him, Anna stared hard at the wall in front of her trying not to think about Kristoff hands touching her back. Which they weren't of course. He was just touching the dress. Right just the dress.
Rubbing his hands against his pants to wipe away the sweat that had quickly gathered there, Kristoff grasped one of the small pearl buttons and resolved to keep his eyes on them and the small yellow loops he was to put them through.
And not the bits of lace he could see peeking out between them.
Glancing quickly at the coil of red hair whose sweet scent was not making this any easier, Kristoff coughed slightly and beginning to button her up asked."Why are you wearing a dress you can't put on by yourself?"
Anna let out a sigh and replied."A queen gifted it to me. I don't know why she had to have it made in this style though. I mean what is so wrong with one that you just slip over your head?"
Stifling a laugh, Kristoff said. "Maybe she thought you had a ladies maid?"
"Hmph, I don't need any help putting on my clothes. Well at least not usually."
Kristoff bit back the teasing comment that wanted to come out and dropping his eyes ran head first into a temptation he could not resist.
He had button her up almost all the way with only six pearls left right between her shoulder blades.
This part of her skin wasn't covered by any additional clothing and the soft peach of it along with the tiny spattering of freckles across it begged to be touched.
Without even thinking about what he was doing, Kristoff leaned forward and pressed a delicate kiss on that entrancing piece of skin.
Anna's quickly indrawn breath was her only reaction.
But that little breath was enough to shake Kristoff out of his stupor and back to himself.
Making a strange sound in the back of his throat, he swiftly button the last of the buttons and stepped away from her.
Rubbing the back of his neck as she turned to face him both their faces a shade pinker than usual, he stammer out. "A.. all d..d..done."
Flicking her eyes to his face once, Anna then dropped her gaze again and shifting awkwardly on her feet said. "Thank you, Kristoff. I suppose we better be off now then."
Nodding his head, Kristoff cleared his throat and with just a beat of hesitation held out his arm to her. "If I could have the honor."
This bit of chivalry brought a laugh to Anna's lips and her eyes back up to his, dropping a quick curtsey, Anna replied."But of course, Sir Ice Cutter."
With that quip they both broke into laughter as they made their way out of the room, unknowingly having the same longing in their hearts as they did so.
'I wish we were married already.'
