Saturday came in a blink of an eye. We gathered at an ice cream shop within our school grounds called Ice Castle. Outside of the shop looks completely plain, like the usual ice cream shops you see around town, but when you get inside the vibe is totally different. It looks really retro from the black and white tiled floor to the blue and pink color palate of the walls, chairs and tables and booths. My favorite part is the illuminated words that wrote: I Scream for Ice Cream with a hot pink light on and on the other side: Ice Queen Was Here with a sapphire blue light.

There weren't that many students around when we got inside, only about 2-3 groups were there so we were able to pick a great space. Flynn was the one to choose where we sit and we settled at a booth near the very edge of the store. We huddle in the small booth with Punzie, Rider, Hiccup and Frost on one side respectively and Merida, Anna and me on the other. Anna came along saying that she wanted to bond with the whole gang since she hasn't joined us for lunch the whole week and she really wanted to meet Hiccup, she says she had many questions for the guy.

"Okay, now that we're all settled in, I'll go order our ice creams then." Jack lists out the orders, "same flavors for everyone I presume; Peanut Butter Cup for Rider, Rocky Road for Hiccup and Punzie, and Butter Pecan for Merida, am I right?" The above mentioned simultaneously nodded.

"So, how about little Winters here? What are you having Madame?" He asks Anna posing like a waiter at a restaurant making Anna giggle.

Damn, this guy really knows his way with the ladies.

I would've reacted to his little act but I was too busy looking into the 38 ice cream flavors on the menu. I couldn't decide what to choose, there were so many flavors all sounding really good.

Berry Berry Strawberry
Ultimate Choco
French Vanilla
Cotton Candy
Almond Fudge
Caramel Macchiato
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
Neopolitan

Heck they even have Pumpkin Pie and Spicy Mango, like is that even a flavor?

"I'll take the chocolatiest flavor you have sir," Anna answers.

"Ultimate choco ice cream it is!" He proceeds to me. "And what about you Princess, have you decided yet?"

"No, just a sec. There's way too much flavor here and they all sound so good."

"And they all actually are, but as much as I want to buy you all the flavors Princess, unfortunately I can't afford all of them. But may I suggest my favorite?" he grins, "Mint Chocolate Chip! Uh-you're welcome."

I look at him with a grossed out expression, "no, that tastes like toothpaste!"

He clenches his heart acting hurt.

"Yes! Welcome to the Anti-mint choco club Els," Flynn says and gives me a high five. Apparently everyone in here doesn't like mint chocolate chip.

"You traitors!" Jack still acting hurt, "What about you little princess, what is your stand in this mint choco—"

"I don't like it sorry," Anna quickly answers him, "too toothpaste-tasting for me."

Jack ups his acting by grabbing the menu from my hand and holding it like a sword pointing it at everyone in the booth. "All of you should be ashamed of yourselves for depreciating my precious mint choco. And you," he points the menu at me, "how could you? You even gave me a—"

I quickly pull on his shirt dragging him to the counter before he says anything more, "I'll go and decide in the counter, you go order now."

I know full well what he was gonna say, he was gonna bring up me giving him the Choco mint brownies. And everyone will find out and they'll all think I have a thing for this guy and then I'll have to kill myself!

"So Hiccup, why did your parents name you Hiccup? Did you hiccup when you came out from your mother's you know what?" I could hear Anna starting to terrorize Hiccup.

I sigh, "She's starting again."

"H-hey P-P-Princess c-could you," Jack says sounding like his choking. Then I realize, he was. I was grabbing him by his collar, choking him.

"Oh yeah sorry, I forgot about you." I quickly let go of him.

He stands up properly, fixing his shirt. "You're really hurting me today Princess," he jokes. "First you slammed my mint choco after you personally gave me mint choco flavored brownies and then you choke me. What's next? You'll forfeit your decision to be friends with me?"

"That's possible if you keep whining like that." I try to keep a straight face as I say it.

"Naaaw~ I worked too hard to earn your friendship!" he pouts.

So cute!

"We've only been acquainted for a week Frost."

"Which surprises me more why you haven't accepted my plead for friendship yet!"

I glare at him, but this didn't last long when I saw him pouting and giving me big puppy dog eyes. I burst out laughing at his childish behavior. "God Frost, you have a brain cell of a 10 year old."

"And a body and face of a gorgeous 18 year old, am I right or am I right?"

"Or."

We both laugh at each other. After my outbursts on Monday and the awkwardness at Tuesday, it's been like this since Wednesday; we would banter like kids and end up laughing like idiots. It's fun though, just being like this with him.

We continued laughing not realizing it was our time to order already.

"Excuse me Ma'am, Sir, your orders may I take them?" A huge man with scruffy brown hair in red shirt and brown jumpsuit asks us.

Fuck, I haven't decided what flavor to get yet! Dammit Frost you are very distracting!

I hurriedly scan through the menu in front while Jack proceeds to order for our friends.

"Decided on anything yet Princess?" He asks me after saying all the orders.

"Uhmm, wait. I'm debating over Chocolate chip cookie dough and French vanilla, which is better?"

"Hmm, okay," he goes back at the man, "hey Ralph could you cancel out the mint choco and enter in chocolate chip cookie dough and French vanilla?"

"Okay got it, that'll be 24.53$" Ralph says.

Jack gives him the exact amount and he tells us that our orders will be served to us in a while. So we head back to our booth.

"Hey, why'd you cancel your mint choco?" I ask him.

"So you'll get both flavors, we can share both cookie dough and vanilla. You were having a hard time choosing so I decided on that instead."

I was touched by his decision. He can be sweet despite all his childish behavior. "Thanks Frost," I give him a warm smile.

"Yep, that's all I need," he flashes his usual grin again. "You're welcome Princess you know I'd do anything to see you smile like that."

"Wait so your girlfriend really broke up with you?" Anna is still grilling Hiccup when we got back, "but why though?"

Hiccup shrugs, "she said I had no time for her."

"That's what they always say buddy," Flynn puts his arm over Hiccup's shoulders.

"Hey, I don't say that!" Rapunzel elbows her boyfriend.

"Just kidding blondie," he gives her his signature smoulder, which I think looks really weird, no offense to Flynn though.

"And worst part is, we haven't even gotten the chance to meet the girl," Jack joins in.

"How so?" Anna continues to ask, "she doesn't go to school here?"

"Astrid is from my hometown, she goes to school there. It's a long 3 hour drive from here, we only ever see each other during winter breaks and summer. Merida actually knows her though, since we're neighbors and all."

I look at Merida quite stunned by this new information, Anna does the same and starts to question her. "I never knew you were neighbors Mer, you never told us this!"

Merida sinks in her seat with her arms crossed looking irritated, "it's not really something I'm proud of."

"Why? Hiccup is…he's…" Anna tries to look for words to describe the guy with everyone in the table finding it amusing. "He's…decent."

"Yep he's a decent man," Jack pats Hiccup's back trying to hold back his grin.

Merida just flashes the guy a glare. Then something hit her brain and she changed her expression to a teasing one and then looks at me. "Since no one here has ever seen Astrid, may I just mention that she's blonde, your boy here has a thing for blondes," she leans closer to me, "watch out Elsa, he might go after you!" she snickers and gives me a wink.

I look at her, appalled. Then I looked at Hiccup who wasn't too amused with what she said.

Great, I just involuntarily got caught in a Merida-Hiccup squabble.

"Don't listen to her Els she's just jealous that I chose a blonde rather than a red head."

"What's wrong with red heads?" Anna innocently asks, holding her twin braids together covering her mouth with hurt written all over her eyes. We all burst out into laughter. Anna has this effect on people. She's just unknowingly funny without even trying.

"I didn't mean you Anna, I was implying to Merida." Hiccup says in between his chuckles.

Just then a scruffy guy appears before our table serving us our ice cream. "Ice cream for table 16," he says as he places our ice creams in the table.

"Thanks Kristoff!" Flynn says to the guy.

Wow, everyone really knows everyone at this school.

"No prob dude," he says. His eye suddenly narrows down at Anna who's slowly sinking in the chair beside me, clearly trying to avoid the guy in front of us. "Hey it's you!" he says to her.

"Hey you, just me," Anna says in a small ha-ha voice.

"You two know each other?" I ask.

"You're the new girl on my biology class right?" he asks her. She just nods at him.

Uh-huh, I never thought I'd see a day where Anna would get silent like this.

"Well then, I'll see you at class uhm…"

"A-A…" apparently Anna inevitably lost the ability to speak.

"Her name's Anna, and thank you for serving our ice cream Kristoff." I say in a firm tone, my overprotective sister side kicking in.

He just shrugs and bid farewell to the other people in the table.

"If I'm not mistaken, our little Anna has a little crush on our not so little Kristoff," Jack wiggles his eyebrows in a mocking manner, trying to tease Anna.

Uh-huh.

"His a bit grumpy and scruffy but the guy's really sweet." He winks.

"I don't have a crush on him."

"Of course you don't," he says sarcastically.

Everyone went on to eat their ice creams while Jack sliced the cookie dough ice cream with his spoon and puts it on my French vanilla and does the same to the French Vanilla to his cookie dough.

"Thanks," I say.

"You're welcome."

We were oblivious to our friends who were looking at us at disbelief.

"What just happened?" Punzie finally breaking the ice.

"What?" I ask.

"What was that with the ice cream?" Merida continues.

"You realize you two are acting like an old married couple," Hiccup adds.

"We're acquaintances."

"Maybe next week we'll see the both of them secretly holding hands under the classroom desks," Flynn teases.

"Ooh, I like the sound of that!" Jack agrees.

I roll my eyes at him.

"We're just sharing guys, seriously."

"Of course you are," Anna giggles.

"Ah, I have something else I wanted to ask everyone," Anna says with her mouth smothered in chocolate. I giggle as soon as I saw her face.

Honestly Anna can be such a baby, but I love it, all the more reason to baby her some more.

I took a small napkin to wipe her smudged face.

"You have more? I thought we were already done with that?" Hiccup says.

"I have a whole list of questions on my mind." She grins at him.

Gosh even her teeth is smeared with chocolate.

"So, how'd this ensemble got together? Was it because Punzie and Flynn are dating? I could tell you guys go way back though. Or was it because Hiccup and Merida were neighbors? Is it because you guys—"

"Hey, hey slow down Anna. One question at a time," Merida says.

"You know what I'm curious too, how did you guys got together? I know you four have been hanging out long before I was added in the picture," Flynn asks.

"Well my friend I can answer that," Jack starts. "It started off at detention…"

"Why am I not surprised," I flat out say to him, giving him a mocking smirk. "You must really love getting people in detention Frost."

"I fully understand why you'd assume that Princess, but that time, they got into trouble by themselves." Jack smugly says.

"I find that hard to believe."

"It's actually true Els," Punzie admits.

Jack looks at me with an 'I told you so' face. I just roll my eyes at him.

"So what happened?" Anna excitedly says almost bouncing on the chair.

I have to admit, I too am curious of their story.

"It was at 6th grade right?" Rapunzel tries to recall.

"7th actually," Hiccup corrects her.

"Oh yeah, well anyway so at 7th grade on that particular day during our P.E. some girl at our class kept on teasing me about my hair saying how it smelt bad and that I don't wash it, which I do actually. It irritated me too much and I felt my blood boiling and..." Punzie starts telling their story.

"Well long story short, we had mean girls in our class. Punzie and I were already roommates that time and their childish mocking irritated me too so I started to punch those girls and so we got detention." Merida finishes.

"Wait, I understand Merida getting detention but how did Punzie get one too?" Anna asks.

"Oh," Punzie giggles, "she forgot to mention I too got into that fight those girls just really bugged me and I as far as I remember threw punches that may have broken one of those girls' noses!" She says this with her usual bubbly manner.

That certainly was surprising, never thought the sweet and easy going Rapunzel would be involved in a fight.

"I got detention, later in the afternoon after that." Hiccup says.

"It was also the most random reason for getting one too," Merida added.

"Well, how?" Anna says.

"I was reading a book about dragons during math, teacher wasn't too happy of my off-topic reading session," he shrugs.

That certainly was random, but if I were the teacher I'd be angry too. I mean, it's math time! You should be reading about numbers or equations.

"And how about Jack, how did you get detention?" Anna shifts her attention to Jack who's finishing his bowl of ice cream. "Hmm, let me guess you got caught canoodling with some girl at the library?" she giggles.

"Not close," Jack says.

"He was caught skipping classes and hiding at the clinic," Merida says.

Skipping classes huh, well that certainly sounds like Frost.

"He does that often during those times and all throughout middle school too," Merida continues. "Honestly Frost were you terrorizing Tooth there or something? I mean what do you even do there?"

I don't know if it was just my imagination or something but for a second I thought I saw Jack's face grimace of hurt when Merida mentioned this Tooth, I mean who is this Tooth anyway? And what's with that name Tooth, who names people from a part of their body. But then again, Jack went back to the usual Jack, grinning and all. So I guess I was just seeing things?

"Who is Tooth again?" Anna asks the question I've been dying to ask.

"Oh Tooth is our school nurse, she's mostly at the school clinic. And her name's actually Toothiana but we call her Tooth 'cuz she has this crazy thing about teeth," Rapunzel clears things out. "You two have nice teeth, you better hide them when you're around her or you'll have her hand inside your mouth, trust me, I've been there."

"She specifically is very fond of Jack's teeth though," Merida adds.

"And she's like a family friend of his too, right Jack." Hiccup says.

"Yeah, something like that," Jack says with a dry chuckle.

There it is again! He seems to turn gloomy whenever Tooth is mentioned. Hmm, quite baffling. What are you hiding Frost?

"Hey, I never knew he did that." Flynn says feeling left out.

"It's 'cuz he stopped during Freshman year and started his quest of making out with every girl in school." Hiccup fills him in.

"What can I say, puberty hit me real hard," Jack sneers.

And then he's back.

"So, what happened in detention?" Anna tries to put the topic back.

Everybody quickly realizes they were going off topic. "The teacher made us clean the music room, which I tell you is really unnecessary since we have people paid to do that here so why make 13 year olds do it right?" Merida protests.

"And she kept blabbing about that the minute we got the orders to do it," Hiccup added.

"And I agreed with her," Jack says. "That's why I suggested we skip the cleaning and do something fun instead."

"Which we did," Punzie continues. "That was my first time breaking the rules and it actually felt thrilling sneaking out and stuff," she giggles.

"I was completely against it though," Hiccup debates. "But all three of them seemed to be really serious about doing it so I had no choice but join in unless I wanted to be left alone there and get questioned for their disappearance."

"Where did you guys go?" Anna asks.

"Nowhere," Rapunzel giggles.

"We got caught escaping from the window," Merida says laughing at the memory.

"And we got 3 more weeks of detention for trying to skip," Jack merrily added.

"See I told you guys that was a bad idea," Hiccup tries to retort.

"My dear Hiccup, if it weren't for that we wouldn't have bonded for 3 weeks. You wouldn't have had the best roommate ever and you wouldn't have had these amazing people as your friends!" Jack puts his arm around the lanky kid.

Hiccup grins, "That is true."

"Awe, you guys bonded over detention! You guys are like the breakfast club!" Anna squeals.

"Flynn joined us during Freshman year when he got roomed with these two doofuses," Merida added.

Flynn grins at his girlfriend, "and I've never been thankful, it's because of you guys that I met this amazing girl sitting beside me now." Rapunzel nudges him softly blushing so much.

Anna squealed some more while Merida, Hiccup and I just let out huge sighs.

"You're welcome," Jack says.

He went on and took his glass of water holding it up in the air. "This is to our old friendship that stood the test of time," everybody else holds their own glass of water up, "and to new friendships we welcome with open arms." He looks at me and Anna.

"Cheers!" we all say.

It was almost sun down when we decided to go back to our dorms. Halfway out I remember the paper bag I've been hanging on to all afternoon.

"Hey wait a second guys, I'll be back." I say to the girls and ran after the boys.

I tugged the helm of Jack's T-shirt when I caught up with them, Flynn and Hiccup didn't seem to notice me and went on walking.

I held out the paper bag to him earning a puzzled look from him.

"Are these more brownies?" He says with a grin.

"No idiot, I'm not giving you anymore of those."

He pouts at me again.

Fuck. Why does he keep on doing that these days, I've already been constantly attacked by his devious grins now he's serving me cute pouts over and over again. Seriously Frost you are too sly.

"Keep on pouting Frost and I swear I'll be pulling out those lips of yours."

"You mean my perfectly fine lips?" He smirks.

God, why does he keep on bringing that up?

I roll my eyes again and I ram the paper bag onto his chest. "It's your jacket Frost, sorry I took a while to return it," I say. "But thank you, I will forever be grateful for what you did for me." I gave him a small smile.

He takes the paper bag and checks the content inside. "You're welcome Princess."

I see Flynn and Hiccup ahead finally realizing Jack wasn't with them. "Anyway, the girls are waiting for me so I'm heading back. Your two boyfriends are waiting for you too."

He looks back at the two boys and back at me scratching the back of his neck. "Right, see you on Monday then Princess?"

"Yeah see you."

He immediately turned around to get back. "Hey Frost," I call out to him again.

"Friends?" I say holding my hand out to him as he turned.

He gives me a big grin, the same grin that he gave me back when he walked me to the dorms. That same illegal grin that made me palpitate so much that I didn't even know my heart could even race like that. My favorite out of all the grins he has shown. An innocent, soft, and warm grin.

"I thought you'd never ask Princess, you don't know how long I've waited for that."

"Well hard work pays off Frost," I smile back at him, "to new friendships?"

He grabs my hand and shakes it softly.

What'd you know Jack Frost can be soft too.

"To new friendships Princess."

New Friendships indeed.

I never thought I'd say this but I'm glad we transferred here.

I'm experiencing new things but they weren't as bad as I've imagined.

I couldn't be any happier…
