Category: Umm…a little AU, since I use lines from the movie. But have the conversation take place somewhere else.
************Set AFTER Elsa's departure!
Summary: Georg decides to take Max's advice and follow his heart.

Part 1: Finding the words
I lean my elbows against the terrace railing, and look up into the sky. The night sky is crystal clear, the moon is full and the stars seem to be shining their brightest. I close my eyes as I listen to the trees rustling lightly in the gentle breeze. The peace of the night allowing me a few precious moments alone with my thoughts.
My every thought is of her, and how I'm finally free to tell her that I love her.
To tell her…but how do I find the words?
The feelings in my heart go beyond mere words, beyond any and all expressions of love. I can't possibly put into words the way she makes me feel. The way that she breathed life back into my soul. The way she made me feel again, live again. How do I tell her that she saved me?
My eyes shoot open when I hear the backdoor close. I listen to the soft footsteps, and I know instantly who I will see when I turn around.
The footsteps stop suddenly, and I hear a startled gasp come from behind me. I stay still for a moment, before slowly turning to face her.
" Hello." She says quietly, her eyes refusing to meet mine.
" Good evening." I say quietly.
" I'm sorry, I didn't realize that you were out here. It's such a lovely night, I just…" She trails off, as she notices that my eyes are still on her.
" Nights like this are meant to be enjoyed, Fraulein." I tell her happily. I watch her nod sheepishly, " It's rare to see the night sky this clearly."
She slowly lifts her head to look up at the stars, " Oh, it's so beautiful."
" Yes." I answer back, my eyes not on the stars. " I would say breathtaking would be more appropriate."
I watch her cheeks flush at my comment, and I suddenly realize that I have to be careful not to frighten her with my confession, that I have to take it slowly. " Maria?" I say quietly.
She looks up at me, her eyes trying not to meet mine. " Yes?" Her voice is soft, almost a whisper.
I take a hesitant step towards her and make sure that our eyes meet. I lock my eyes with hers, as I prepare to begin the most important conversation of my life.
To be continued…
