They were rushing through the forest in Kristoff's carriage with Sven pushing his strong legs to move faster and stretch to their limits. Elsa was in the front with a focused Kristoff listening to her directions. It's been about thirty minutes, and she knows they're getting close. Anna sniffs hard.
"Do you smell smoke?" Anna asks, touching Kristoff's shoulders blindly.
"Yeah," he answers with a cough, looking at Elsa who's brows are furrowed to the point they ache her muscles.
"Another spirit I met along the way has fire. I asked him to look after the village. He must have tried."
"Or he's the one-" Kristoff starts.
"—No. I'm sensing something else." Elsa closes her eyes. "Gale?"
"Who's…?" Kristoff asks Anna who's giving him an equally confused look. The carriage is getting bumpy, and Elsa opens her eyes again.
"The wind. Why not give her a name?" Anna and Kristoff exchange glances and Elsa pays no mind to it. "What's happening in there?"
FWWWWW-sshhhhhh! Kristoff and Anna lean closer together to get warmth and the wind picks up again.
"I know not what to say. There were outsiders who burst in. They have been overwhelmed."
"Is anyone…?" Elsa worries her lip and tightens her fists.
"One." And then the wind is gone.
"No," Elsa slams her fist hard against her knee. "Sven we're almost there!" Sven makes a noise and starts running again. Kristoff and Anna stare at Elsa who's emanating an intense wave of anxiety and frustration. Anna rubs Elsa's back and Elsa loosens up just slightly. Little flurries of snow pour down above her head and she wipes at them in agitation.
"It's gonna be ok," Anna tries. Elsa looks unconvinced. Five more minutes into the forest and they see fire scattered along the trees with broken and bloody arrows all over the ground. Elsa jumps off the cart and Kristoff and Anna sprint after her.
"Anna be careful," Kristoff whispers, holding her wrist. She pulls out of his grasp and hurriedly waves for him to speed up closer to Elsa. They're crawling through the bushes, and Anna gasps when she spots someone hiding behind a tree, holding an arrow ready to go, aiming at Elsa. She knocks Elsa to the ground and Kristoff runs straight at the man. SHP! It narrowly misses Kristoff's throat and he gulps before knocking the man down, a gasp rips out both of their throats when they hit the hard ground. They struggle in each other's arms and Elsa quickly chains him to the tree with ice. Kristoff picks up the bow.
"Sheesh," Anna whines, swiping at her brow. She pats Kristoff's arm.
"Tell me about it," he winces, touching his scraped neck. Elsa looks deeper into the village. She hears shouting.
"Queen Elsa!" comes a whispered cry. Elsa and the other two duck down and crawl their way toward one of the small homes, hopping in through the window with the help of each other. It was Yelana, the one who gave most of the orders around the town. "My men and women are all around the perimeter. Can you put up some sort of defensive wall? A different village from the West of here is trying to overtake us just like last year." Elsa nods easily and walks toward the door. "Oh. And Queen Elsa. Please find Honeymaren."
Elsa was so worried. Every action she took seemed rash, even though to lesser known eyes she looked totally composed. Anna wasn't having it. Elsa tried to get her to stay with Kristoff who was going house to house to help anyone he could, but Anna refused. Elsa managed to get a huge wall up so nothing could pass through anymore. She still hadn't seen Honeymaren and her and Anna had been searching outside the walls for half an hour now. Elsa was starting to lose hope, but she refused to let that stop her search. Her knees were aching from crouching so much, and her feet were feeling numb in her boots, but she didn't stop.
"Els!" Anna whispers from behind a bloody tree. Elsa shuffles over to her and holds her sister's waist. She doesn't know which of them she's supporting by doing that. Anna points to a path of broken twigs with little splotches of blood every so often. Anna and Elsa run down it, not worried about giving away their position right now. And then she sees it. Honeymaren is panting and looking like a sweaty mess with an arrow stuck in her back. Ryder and a reindeer are by her side, using nature's tree leaves or whatever they can find to ease her pain.
"Fuckkkk," the girl cries into her sleeve.
"H-Honeymaren?" Elsa rushes to her side and Ryder sighs in relief.
"Oh thank the spirits, dude! Can you do something to cool her down?!" Elsa nods and swallows a lump before waves her hand over Honeymaren and letting a light snow fall atop her body.
"Let's get back to the village. It's safer now. Stay quiet if you can." The two nod and Anna helps lift Honeymaren onto the reindeer in her feverish state. Elsa lowers the wall once they get there and people in the village quickly come to help. They lay her down in her own bed and a doctor asks everyone to leave except Elsa.
"I may need your ice." The woman then looks to Anna and asks, "Will you search for the fire spirit? It's with Yelana." Anna nods, touching Elsa before she runs off. Elsa sits at Honeymaren's side, she's face down on the bed with a stick wrapped in cloth between her teeth. She's biting so hard Elsa can hear her white teeth creaking. The doctor doesn't give her any warning before she pulls the arrow out of her back. Honeymaren shouts and Elsa turns her head away.
"Your bedside manner sucks," Honeymaren complains weakly, gripping the sheets of her bed in her hands.
"Sorry," Elsa stutters, eyes glued to the bloody arrow sitting dangerously close to Honeymaren's charcoal drawings.
"I'm screwing with you," Honeymaren chokes. Anna bursts through the door with the lizard in her palms making squishy noises.
"Got it! What do you need it to do?" Anna asks the doctor. The doctor holds the lizard and says,
"Spit." The lizard bounces up and down, puffing up it's chest before fire blasts out of it's little mouth onto the wound. Elsa and Anna look away, stomachs getting queasy. Is the room spinning? Anna thinks, face becoming green. Honeymaren shouts vulgarities into her pillow and the doctor tries to correct her.
"Fuck you! I am DYING. I. AM. DYING!" The doctor tsks and Anna snorts despite the situation. Why is that me? Anna thinks to herself.
"Queen Elsa, please use your ice to soothe it." Elsa nods and presses her hand against the scorched skin. Honeymaren groans again and Elsa lets out about fifty apologies.
"Shut up," Honeymaren groans. "If you should be sorry fo-argh-ANY-thing," Honeymaren turns slightly to her side to look up at Elsa. "It should be for leaving without saying goodbye." Elsa tightens her lips and helps Honeymaren sit up. Elsa's sitting next to her with her legs off the bed. She looks at her pale hands in her lap.
"You're right."
"I know I am," Honeymaren says in a joking tone. The two of them smile at each other, eyes locked, and Anna interjects with an obnoxious clearing of her throat. Elsa stands up from the bed and hurries over to Anna's side.
"Right," Elsa laughs awkwardly. "This is my-"
"-Girlfriend." Elsa coughs into her fist and stares at Anna with a twitching eye. The doctor turns to the Queen with a disgruntled look on her face and Elsa slinks away. Meanwhile Honeymaren's eyes are downcast. "Anna. Hi." Honeymaren greets her with a crooked grin that looks half-hearted at best.
"Hi," she answers back. Her bangs are stuck to her forehead and she looks back at the doctor. "Am I gonna need to be watched or can I just lay down for a while?" The doctor hands her a wet towel.
"You know where I am. Have your lackey come fetch me." Honeymaren huffs a laugh and looks at Elsa again.
"I'm gonna need sleep," Honeymaren says with a wave of her hand toward the door.
"Understood," Elsa says quietly. She feels her suspicions were right, Honeymaren must have felt something for her. At least it was let down quickly. Anna presses a hand against Elsa's back and Anna waves to a bitter Honeymaren before flashing her a fake smile.
"Bye," Anna says cheerily, letting the beads swing behind her. They get out of the house and Elsa sighs loudly before aggravatedly whispering,
"Anna what was that?" Anna shrugs and Elsa holds her by her upper arm. "Girlfriends? That is not an acceptable statement! You do realize we're in the 1800's, yes?!" Anna shrugs again and Elsa sighs louder.
"It doesn't matter Els this isn't Arendelle. Why not get used to it."
"They still know I'm the Queen! Word travels Anna!" The redhead looks indifferent and Elsa decides to save her breath. "And what happens if they figure out you're my…" Elsa raises her brows and mouths the word.
"Like I said, they don't know us." Anna's letting it go so easily and Elsa's not having it.
"This conversation is not over," Elsa says to the back of her sister's stubborn head. Anna's walking toward Kristoff and Ryder with her hands up in the air. Unbelievable, Elsa thinks to herself, pacing back and forth.
An Hour Later
Elsa and Anna went around the town checking in on everyone. It was clear a lot of the kids were really getting along with Anna because they were showing her all of their favorite toys and "fixing" her hair in different ways. It was quite cute Elsa had to admit. Ryder and Sven were still playing with Sven and Ryder's favorite reindeer named Rex. Yelana and Elsa just finished talking about safety precautions and plans to put into action in case this were to happen again. Elsa even offered to have food and supplies brought to the village once a month, but Yelana declined.
"We will always prefer our independence," she had said. Elsa understood. In some ways, she wished she too could be that way. "Queen Elsa, you could be here with us, you know? You've done quite a bit for us already." At first Elsa's heart thumped. She wanted that… but then her eyes glanced toward Anna again, and there was no way she could leave her. She shook Yelana's hand and bowed her head.
"I can not leave Arendelle."
"...I see," the older woman said with a small smile. "I sense you will in due time." Elsa blinked and let go of their joined hands. "We'll be seeing you, your Majesty." Elsa walked out feeling confused and a little peeved. She doesn't know me. How could she say that? Elsa crossed her arms and watched her sister who happened to look up. Anna waved excitedly to Elsa with a giddy look on her face and Elsa felt even more guilty. Oh come on, what am I guilty for? I haven't done anything wrong. I'm being a good girl and sticking to Arendelle just like Mother and Father raised me to do. ...I wonder what they'd have thought about me leaving. Elsa feels a ball of paper hit her shoulder.
"Pssst! Snow lady. Come 'ere!" Elsa walked up to the window of Honeymaren's room and gripped the thin window ledge.
"Weren't you supposed to be asleep?"
"You try sleeping with a freakin' pain in your side that hurts like a mother-" Elsa chuckles and the smile stays on her face. Honeymaren's head is peeking out the window and her pretty brown eyes are sparkling in the sun. "That girl you were with," Elsa stiffens up. "She's cute. I'm kind of jealous."
"Oh?" Elsa presses curiously, brushing her hair out of her own face.
"Yeah. Can I tell you a secret?" Elsa nods. "I know this is stupid or whatever but I kinda think I lean towards…"
"Women." Honeymaren nods with a sheepish grin. "...I understand," Elsa says shyly, picking at her dress.
"I kinda guessed you would," Honeymaren answers. Elsa looks behind her in the direction of Anna. She can't see her since there's a small house in the way. "You guys leavin' tonight?" Elsa nods. "Alright. Well, goodbye I guess." Honeymaren looks upset but she smiles nonetheless.
"I will be back sometime soon," Elsa states.
"I'm sure." Elsa walks away after saying goodbye and Honeymaren watches with a dreamy look on her face. "Crap. Get over yourself jerk-off." She huffs at herself and slams her window shut.
On the Way Back to Arendelle
Kristoff was chatting their ears off (mostly talking to Sven) about Ryder and all the similarities they shared. Anna cut in with a joke of,
"Jeez you'd think you're gonna marry the guy." Kristoff rolled his eyes.
"Nah." Kristoff tilts his head side to side and itches his nose. "That Honeymaren girl was pretty cute though… without the suffering part. Hah."
"She's not into…" Elsa start, thinking of ways to avoid the words.
"She's got a thing for Elsa," Anna announces flatly. Kristoff throws his hands up in the air and sighs.
"Oh you CRUEL world! Does EVERYONE have a thing for Elsa?!" The Queen looks at her feet, feeling all sorts of embarrassment, and Anna laughs deeply, her head butting in between Elsa and Kristoff in the front.
"Seems that way. You're the only one who hasn't been swept off your feet by the Ice Witch!"
"Not a witch," Elsa mumbles with a scratch of her sloping nose bridge.
"I know baby," Anna says between puckered lips. Kristoff gags.
"Yeah no thanks," Kristoff coughs. Anna slaps the back of his head and he holds it with one huge hand. "I mean she's a very attractive and strong and cool and-ok that's ironic-but she's good. I like her. Yep yep." Elsa's holding her hand over her eyes and Anna slaps Kristoff again. "Ow! WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM MEEEEE?!"
"Stop hitting on my bitch," Anna laughs and Elsa groans from deep in her stomach.
Once they get to the stables, Elsa and Anna part from Kristoff and Sven. Olaf comes running out of the stables to say goodbye before the sisters head inside for the night. The sun was setting down on the horizon, and Anna let Elsa shower first, knowing it's been a few days since she had warm water on her skin. As soon as she was done, Anna rushed to get cleaned and joined Elsa in Anna's green bedroom. Anna set her dress in her closet and slowly shut the closet door.
"Hey Els," Anna looks back over her shoulders at Elsa who was reading up on the log of royal duties she'll have to get to tomorrow. "Can we stay in your room tonight?" Elsa marked her page and shut the half-full book.
"Sure?"
"I want to make new memories in there. B-better ones than you had." Elsa nods slowly before leading Anna back to her own blue and moody bedroom. Anna strikes a match and lights a candle next to Elsa's bed. Elsa climbs in, confused when she watches Anna stumble over to her tall bookshelf. She chuckles when Anna pulls out THAT book.
"I should've known," Elsa jokes, shaking her head slightly.
"Why not?" Anna responds with a smile. Before she opens the book however, she hands Elsa the frayed note from her younger self. Elsa takes it, a grave look on her face. "I kinda think you should… check in, you know?" Elsa takes the note and tosses it off the bed behind her. Anna makes an ahhh, noise but Elsa halts her with a press of her cold palm against Anna's stomach.
"I think I'd like to leave that in the past," Elsa says, shrugging. Her voice is higher pitched and it makes Anna feel like she's showing Anna her belly. She's not keeping herself away from Anna in any way now, and it's been a long time coming, Anna realizes. She smiles and nods her head back and forth. "Now about those new memories…" Anna giggles and Elsa does too, pulling Anna into her lap and looking at the book over her sister's shoulders, both their hands holding different edges of the book. It's ironic how their eyes are lit up like innocent children when this is technically anything but innocent.
"That's so hot," Anna breathes with her tongue caught between her teeth. It's a drawing of a man and a woman. He's laying down and the woman is straddling him facing away.
"Why?" Elsa asks in a snarky way, leaning back. "That's not even intimate. I wanna see your face, not your backside." Anna humms in acknowledgement and flips the page. He's on his back and the woman is riding him, looking down at his face. She feels Elsa's arms tighten around her waist and she leans into Elsa further.
"Oh you like this though, huh?"
"You already know my answer," Elsa mumbles into Anna's slightly coarse hair. "I may have stared at that one quite a lot while I was..." Elsa swallows and Anna drops the book onto the bedside table with a BUNK! There's a hungry look in her eyes as she sits on Elsa's waist, pressing her sister gently back into the bed.
"Can we do that?" Anna asks with her mouth watering. She's already grinding her hips down against Elsa's, and Elsa is meeting her with just as much vigor.
"Anything for you," Elsa breathes. Anna leans down and takes Elsa's mouth. They're kissing hard, knowing there's no reason to feel shy about this anymore. They've done it a dozen times already but they still don't get tired of it. I don't think I ever will, they both think. Elsa's pushing Anna's dress up her back, and while Anna throws it over her head, Elsa pulls off Anna's underwear, helping her step out of them as well. She snaps her fingers and her own nightgown is gone, and now they're skin against skin just like they've been craving. Elsa holds Anna firmly and pushes her off her stomach into her lap so she can cut up. Her gaze is only slightly below Anna's eyes. Her sister holds Elsa's head and Elsa bites the side of her tan neck hard, growling out a, "Mine." Anna feels herself grow ten times wetter and she shifts her hips uncomfortably.
"Elllls," Anna whimpers, scratching at Elsa's shoulders which feel bulkier than they did a few days ago. "Go in me," she begs. Elsa nods and parts her legs so she can fit her hand between her thighs and her sister's opening. Elsa bends to suck on a nipple, letting her tongue get cold against it and then presses it against the other one. Anna sighs in relief and tightens up when Elsa slips a finger inside.
"Mmmmf," Elsa moans for her Princess, licking from her sister's breasts, passing the ring around her neck, and sucking under her jaw. "You feel so good," she says with a husk to her voice. Anna can't say words back, her head feels heavy and her whole body is leaning backwards. Elsa's holding her upright, staring up at Anna with such heavy yet adorably sappy eyes that Anna forces herself to kiss Elsa. Anna starts lifting her hips up and down with the pace that Elsa is setting, and soon Elsa's slamming in and out of her so hard Anna can't keep up.
"Els, Els… You're so… ELSA" Her body rocks against Elsa's and Elsa pulls her fingers out, slapping her palms together before pulling them apart. The famed ice toy reappears, and Anna grabs it from her sister who smirks at her neediness. That won't last long, Anna thinks smuggly. She forces Elsa onto her back, her beautifully thick hair sprawled out on the bed around her. Anna makes a show of putting the longer end of the toy in herself, biting her lip and moaning loud while staring down at Elsa with fluttering lashes. Elsa looks like she's miserable.
"This teasing is…" Elsa hisses and grabs the short end of the toy, her jaw getting tight as she watches Anna's face tense when she starts moving the toy inside Anna. "I can play just as mean," Elsa warns. Anna's weak though.
"No no no, PLEASE Els, I want you inside me right now!" Anna's bouncing on the toy and Elsa's watching with lips slightly parted.
"I am," Elsa responds, keeping her voice even.
"You know what I mean," Anna chokes, feeling her insides constrict around the hard toy filling her up so completely. Her freckled shoulders shiver in the damp air of the room and she looks at Elsa with her tongue pressed against the inside of her cheek. Elsa's taking it all in, her eyes wandering down the body she's gotten to know so well. She's breathtaking, Elsa and Anna both think.
"Alright," Elsa leans back and Anna takes the short end of the toy, pressing it into Elsa. Elsa purrs, jaw slack while her hands roam up Anna's stomach, wedging her hands between the slight crease of Anna's breasts which swell on top of her ribs. Anna slows down to delay her orgasm, letting Elsa move her hips for her.
"Do you feel ok?" Anna asks. She's leaning forward, holding herself up on Elsa's stomach. Elsa nods, swallowing thickly. "Good." Anna starts moving again, her breasts bouncing ever so slightly. Elsa's eyes are glued to them, rising and falling at the same speed. Anna laughs, feeling like air. She's so happy she's starting to get loopy, and she puts even more weight on Elsa.
"Are you ok, sweetheart?" Elsa asks with a chuckle of her own. Anna nods with a cute humm and her voice is higher pitched when she answers with a,
"I'm perfect."
"Well I'm perfect-er," Elsa mimics. Anna playfully flicks Elsa's nose. Elsa feels the toy hit a perfect swell of flesh inside her and she rocks her head back, neck showing off every vein while she holds in her breath.
"I don't want this to end," Anna says with a whine in her tone. Elsa holds one of Anna's hands and kisses her knuckles.
"It never will," Elsa says breathlessly, jerking hard into Anna. It's deep and just on the edge of hurting, but Elsa rides that line perfectly. "I'm so in love with you, Anna." Elsa laughs at herself, taking Anna and flipping her onto her back, immediately pushing her waist into Anna again. She hovers over Anna, her hair falling over one shoulder. She opens her mouth and it feels like she's sucking in Anna's moans. It warms her body.
"I love you," Anna says, holding the sides of Elsa's face. "I love you completely." Anna's eyes tear up and Elsa kisses her closed lids. She grinds down hard into Anna before pulling away and holding herself higher up to start moving in and out of Anna as fast as she can. Anna's so loud, her mouth's right up against Elsa's ear. She's tugging at Elsa's hair and scratching down her side way too hard but Elsa doesn't care anymore. She's getting close and the adrenaline is pumping furiously through her veins. She's about to pop and they both know it.
"Come on," Elsa moans, "Go ahead." Anna stuffs her face into Elsa's shoulders and screams out her release. It's muffled but Elsa's thinking everyone in the world heard that. She's flushed and slightly embarrassed but she comes after Anna, shyly riding out her orgasm with nothing but quiet groans and declarations of love.
….
Anna's pressed against Elsa's chest and they're wrapped up in the arms of each other with the covers up to Anna's ears. The Princess is listening to the beat of her Queen's pounding heart, and Elsa's smiling down at the messy red hair that's tickling her nose.
