Kristoff comes in his cousin's room, with him there's Sven, his little brother. They find Anna watching at the window, she doesn't notice their arrival. Kristoff decides to scare her a little, he puts his finger on his lips wordless telling Sven to stay quiet, he nods to his bigger brother and keeps his mouth shut. They slowly walk near Anna's bed, Kristoff has his arms ready to tickle the redhead, and Sven is crawling, his plan is to suddenly jump and made his cousin screams a bit.

Kristoff's hands reach Anna's hips and tackle her, she jumps a little on her bed and quickly turns her head to the attacker, at this point Sven stands up with his arms on the air and making strange noises. She lets out a little scream and watches at them in shock.

"What the hell guys!?Lucky me I'm already at the hospital!" although she wants to sound pissed, she can't. She enjoys this moment with her cousins. They all start to laugh.

"You should have seen your face! It was priceless." Sven tries to say to her, but all that comes out of his mouth is only laughter.

After a little bit Sven hugs Anna.

"I missed you Anna! How are you?" Anna gives him a quick kiss on his cheek, on the contrary of his bigger brother, the show of affection doesn't bothers Sven.

"I'm fine, soon I'll be home.." she says trying to cover the little sadness in her voice, but Kristoff notices it and sends her a confused look.

"Anna, what's wrong? Aren't you happy that you're coming home soon?"

"Yeah, I'm happy about that.." 'but I want to stay with Elsa..' She tries to smile, she doesn't want to talk about this right now. Kristoff keeps looking at her, he wants to know what's the matter with her, even if I has an idea, but he understands that she seems to not want to talk about it now, once they're alone and Sven is at school, he's ask her about it.

"So, tell me Sven, why are you here today? Shouldn't you be at school?" Sven sits on a side of the bed and looks at the broken leg.

"The English teacher couldn't come at school, we start lesson an hour later and since the hospital isn't too far away from the school I decided to come here with Kristoff and then go to school. I just wanted to see you!" His eyes leave the broken leg to go and meet the redhead's eyes, he smiles. "I'm happy to know that you're doing better."

"Yeah, that's because she has a great doctor." Kristoff says looking at Anna's face. She can't help a little blush on her cheeks even if she tries to suppress it.

"Well, yes, she's great, a lot better than this one here." She jokes and chuckles a bit.

"Ehy, every day I save lives here, that should mean something." Sven looks at them thinking about how much he's lucky to have a family like this.

"Okay guys, you need to update me on the Ice Queen! Come on, tell me, what's happening in these days?" at this question Anna can feel her cheeks burning even more than before.

"Nothing important, you know? Yesterday she wasn't here. But in general she's great." She lets a little smile coming on her lips as soon as she remembers her doctor's face when she was eating the pizza.

"Oh really? She wasn't there? What a pity.. Why wasn't she at the hospital? Do you know?"

"I guess it was some personal stuff, I don't know, do you know Kristoff?"

"No, I'm sorry I don't know." After he says those words he checks his watch. "Sven I guess it's time for you to go or you lose the bus. Remember to call mom, so she can pick you up."

"Oh come on! Already? I don't want to.." his bigger brother sends him a look, and he stays quiet. He stands up and gives a kiss on Anna's cheek. "All right, see you soon Anna! Bye!" and he walks out leaving the two young adult alone.

Kristoff takes a chair and sits on it, his eyes never leave Anna's ones. His hand on his chin and nods to himself.

"So, what's going on?" the redhead seems a little confused.

"I.. I don't know what you mean.." he sighs.

"Anna, I know there's something going on with you. You know you can tell me everything you want."

Anna looks at her hands which are on her lap and debates with herself about telling or not telling Kristoff. She knows she shouldn't tell him anything, but he's also is cousin, he's like a brother to her, she knows she can trust him. He's always been there for her.

"I don't know.. it's complicated."

"Anna with you is always complicated. Just know, that I'll be always there for you." He sends her a comfort look.

"I guess I like someone.." Anna says so quietly that it makes difficult for Kristoff to hear those words.

"You like someone? Who?"

"I can't tell you.." Anna looks away from him. Kristoff has an idea of who this someone is, but he'd like her to tell him.

"Anna, do I know this person?"

"Yes.."

"You know that I support you no matter what, right?" He puts an hand on her shoulder to comfort her, he knows that probably this is a hard for her.

Anna's never came out directly to her family, Kristoff always thought that she might like women, but he never asked her in which team she played. He doesn't care, he loves her cousin no matter what.

"It's a woman. I like a woman." Anna says a little afraid to watch him in the eyes.

"Anna, look at me, don't be afraid.. I won't judge you, this woman, you like her, and that's fine. As soon as it's not Mandy." He manages to make her cousin chuckles a bit.

"No, I don't like Mandy, don't worry, she's all yours." Anna finally looks at him and see only love from his eyes. She's glad that he still loves her even if she likes someone of her same gender.

"So, I know her.. have I to guess who she is or you'll tell me?" he crosses his arms waiting for her to tell the name.

"I.. I'm not ready to tell you who she is.. I'll tell you, but not right now.. okay?" this isn't the Anna he knows, she's so different, so insecure, but he understands.

"That's okay, don't worry. I'll wait until you're ready." she moves her arms in a way that tell to Kristoff to come closer. He notices the message she's sending to him and hugs his dear cousin.

"Thanks Kris, it's mean a lot to me that you doesn't pull me away only because I like a woman. You're like a brother to me."

"You can always trust on me." He gives her a little kiss on her forehead.

"I know. Now, enough with all about me, let's talk about Mandy!" Kristoff starts blushing.

"Today I'll ask her out for Friday's evening. I'd like to take her to Tania's restaurant."

"That's a good idea, she'll like there, I'm sure of it. But you're taking so long, you should have asked her yet."

"I know.. but I wasn't sure, I was afraid but today is the day." He says standing up and showing his determination. Anna chuckles at him.

After a while Kristoff leaves her cousin's room and goes to check on his patients. Everything is fine in these days, the patients are getting better, sometimes he does some surgeries, but nothing too serious. After he does the rounds, he goes and check if he's in shift on the ER. Since he's off of the ER, he decides to go to Anna's room, it isn't lunch time yet, so he can't go to Mandy and ask her out.

As he's reaching to Anna's room, he sees Elsa, who's about to enter in the room. He calls her out and she turns to him.

"Dr. Bijorman, what can I do for you?"

"Morning, I wanted to ask you how Anna's doing and if I can stay with you today for a while." She looks at him with a confused look.

"Have you already done the rounds?"

"Yes and everything is fine, I checked everyone, the pre and post-operations." She looks at the papers she has on her hands.

"Okay, you can stay with me for a while, but I'd like you to stay quiet, remember that you're not in this case." He nods and smiles to himself. He can watch how those two acts when they're together.

They enter in the room and suddenly Anna's face changes expression. Kristoff remembers how she was when he came in the early morning.

"Morning Doc. So, what are we going to do today?" She smiles at Elsa. Kristoff notices how the redhead's eyes sparkle and she seems so alive. Then he looks at his boss and sees how she changes her posture. She's relaxed but a bit nervous, Kristoff is shocked after noticing something on his boss's face. 'What?! She's about to blush! Seriously?'

"Good morning Miss Summers, we're going to do a check up and then we'll see if your father is favorable on your dismiss." At that both faces of the women changes. Kristoff is watching everything that those two are doing, how they look at each other. He has the confirmation that Anna like Dr. Winters, and he suspect that the doctors likes the redhead too. He's never seen his boss shows some kind of emotion. It's strange for Kristoff to see Elsa walks closer to Anna and starts with taking the blood pressure. Usually she lets nurses or him to do this exams. Another thing he notices that it's odd, is that they talk with each other. Even if Elsa doesn't speak a lot, she talks with her. There's this interesting situation between those two and Kristoff starts thinking that this is the beginning of something really special.

After the check up it's done, the two doctors leaves Anna's room. They're walking to Elsa's office, she doesn't said anything, she looking at the papers on her hands and he simply follow her. After all, he doesn't have nothing to do for now. Elsa opens her office's door and suddenly turns around seeing Kristoff behind her.

"Would you come in?" He looks at her confused but nods. They enters and Elsa goes to her desk, while Kristoff sits on a chair in front of the desk. He notices the little snow globe and lets out a little smile.

"So, how is doing my cousin?" Elsa puts the papers down and looks at him.

"She's fine, beside her broken leg everything is okay with her. I only need her father consent to dismiss her and send her home. Do you two live together?" He shakes his head.

"No, she's just moved in a new apartment near her university." Elsa looks for a brief moment at the snow globe.

"Okay, but for a while it's better if she doesn't live alone, only because she needs to do some injections for the leg." Kristoff is sure that for a very short moment he saw a little bit of worry on her face.

"I guess she'll stay to her parent's home. So there's no need to worry about that." He keeps his eyes on Elsa's face, he's enjoying staying there and find out if she feels the same about Anna or not. It's like he's a some kind of spy.

Elsa doesn't want to lift her eyes and meet Kristoff's ones, she feels exposed but she doesn't know why she's feeling like this.

"Dr. Winters everything okay?" he sounds a little bit concerned.

"Yes, everything is fine." Kristoff isn't sure if what he's going to say after it's a good idea or not, but at the moment he doesn't care.

"I've noticed that you act differently with Anna. I know I don't know you and I'm not in the position to make any assumption, but in these days you two are acting differently." He says carefully. Elsa stays quiet for a moment, which it's strange, he would have bet that at this point she would have said to get out of the office or to shut up because he was nobody to say something like that. Instead there's a quiet moment between the two doctors.

'What's happening to me in these days? He said that I act differently, how is it possible? Maybe he saw us yesterday? No, I don't think so.' She remembers that yesterday evening he wasn't at the hospital. She's aware that she hasn't yet told a word to him after his statement. She knows that it's strange for her, usually she doesn't let people make assumption about her. 'I changed. I'm changing.'

She looks at him, she knows that he's debating with himself if he did a right choice in telling her that or not.

"I guess you're right. I'm acting differently and honestly I'm not sure why, but I can assure you that my doctor's skills are intact."

"I wasn't implying that you're skills weren't intact.. I've just.. I'm sorry." And he is. He doesn't want her to think that with those words he was saying that she wasn't the surgeon she was before.

"No, I am sorry. I know you weren't saying that." Kristoff is once again shocked about her boss's new attitude. 'Did she said that she's sorry? Wow she is changing.'

"I know we aren't friends but colleagues, but.. if there's something wrong, you can tell me." He knows that he's pushing too far saying that, but he couldn't help it.

Elsa is silent again. 'Things are changing in my life.' She sighs. "Thanks Dr. Bijorman." He smiles at her, but she doesn't smile back.

"I guess I'll leave you alone." Kristoff says while standing up.

"Just one more thing, please." He stops his movements. "Tells Anna that in a while it's time for her injection." He's perplex. Did he hear correctly? She said "Anna" and not "Miss Summers"? He notices the scared look of Elsa and decides that it's better to not say anything about that.

"All right, see you later Dr. Winters." He exits from the office with a grin on his face.

'Shit. Did I say Anna!?' Elsa puts her head between her hands and closes her eyes. 'Damn. What's going on with me!?'

Kristoff enters Anna's room, she's listening to some music on her iPod. He pokes at Anna's shoulder to catch her attention. She turns around her head and sees Kristoff. She takes off her headphones.

"It's Elsa, isn't she?" He says with a grin.

Anna looks at him with shock in her eyes. 'How did he..?'
