"The day is beautiful, the mighty Eos has bestowed yet another perfect day for us to have a perfect match of Quidditch. And here I am, laying on my bed, looking at the ceiling and wondering what my crush is doing. Gosh, I'm so pathetic" Jack rambled as he laid on his bed, not even bothering to get up on a Slytherin Quidditch match. Yesterday's events were still fresh in his mind and he couldn't help but dream about kissing her once again.
"Will you stop doing that?! You've been rambling for the past one hour! Get up and get ready right now if you dont want to miss breakfast!" Flynn shouted from his bed.
"Look who's talking! You've been thinking of where to take your Blondie for a date for the past one week!" Jack accused, both of them still staring at the ceiling. They moved their gaze only when they heard somebody get in their dormitory.
"Hey Astrid" Flynn greeted lazily.
"'Hey Astrid?' What the hell?! What are you assholes still doing in your beds?! We have a game to win!" She yelled at them. A and that's when Jack noticed that she was in her Quidditch attire, except for the robe.
"Oh, just thinking and panicking" Jack replied and pulled his blankets till his neck.
"Yeah, thinking about Elsa and panicking whether she'll agree to be his girlf- oof!" Flynn was cut off by the pillow which had come soaring from Jack's direction.
"Shut up Eugene" he hissed. Astrid seemed to understand and she sat down on Flynn's bed after pushing him off.
"So that's why you're sulking. You're scared that Elsa might reject you" Astrid smirked slyly.
"Scared? Me? Pfft, nope. Nothing can scare the almighty Jack Frost" Jack boasted. Astrid raised her eyebrow at his prideful comment but decided to ignore it. But Flynn didn't think so.
"You? Not scared? Almighty? OK, thats the funniest joke of the year 'cause let's see. You're scared about Emma being in trouble, you're scared that nobody might want you and that you might never be loved, you're scared that a certain platinum-blonde might leave you forever after rejecting you coldly, you're scared that all the kids back home might've forgotten you, you're scared that Elsa might forget once we're out of school, you're scared that Elsa might not be the girl you thought she was, you're scared that-" and Flynn was cut off again.
"Wait, why do so many of your fears involve Elsa?" Astrid asked. Jack didn't answer, he just sighed, got up from his bed, collected his Quidditch robes and made his way to the washrooms.
"Oopies, shouldn't've reminded him" Flynn bit his tongue as Astrid rolled her eyes.
...
Jack returned to his room and was surprised to find Flynn completely dressed in his Quidditch robes. He noticed Astrid mutter some charms and set their beds right. She looked up at him and he just gave her a small smile which she reciprocated. The three of them then left the rooms and walked to the Great Hall.
"Look, I know you're still sad about thinking about all your fears at once but I have to tell you, Elsa was seriously giving up on you up until yesterday. So you better make your move before its too late" she placed her hand on his shoulder and walked off to where Elsa was sitting. The girls looked up and greeted her and Jack's gaze locked with Elsa's who quickly looked away, a fierce blush making its way to her face.
"I'm doing it" Jack spoke suddenly, still standing at the entrance with Flynn.
"You what?" Flynn asked with wide yes and his jaw dropped.
"I'm going to ask her to be my girlfriend today" he said and looked determinedly at Flynn.
"You what?!" Two more voices shouted behind them. The two Slytherins turned and met with the two shocked Hufflepuffs.
"He's finally gonna ask her to be his girlfriend! I'm so proud of you!" Flynn said and jumped on Jack to hug him. Hiccup and Kristoff happily jumped on the poor guy and all four of them fell, trying to hug the poor Slytherin house Quidditch captain.
"This is pretty amusing to see such a strong friendship but I should really ask for , and to release " spoke in a strict voice. Most of the girls of the school aka Jack's fanclub giggled. The four of them quickly got up and ran to their respective tables to eat. Jack turned impossibly redder when he caught Elsa giggling.
Great! Its so fun to get embarrassed in front of your crush. And no, I was not sarcastic at all.
He quickly had his breakfast and waited for Flynn, who looked like he was ready to eat everything in sight. And that's when his fanclub decided to talk to him.
"Hey Jack" one of them cooed flirtatiously. He knew that mostly everyone in the Great Hall, including Elsa, was watching him and the girls. So, not wishing to look rude, he replied, though he didn't like how the girls even looked at him.
"Uh, hey. How may I help you?" he asked. From the corner of his eyes, he saw Flynn watching them with a 'this is getting interesting' look.
"We just came to wish you good luck for the match. We know you'll squash the other team with your great Quidditch skills" another said. Not knowing how to respond to that, he just thanked them and turned to Flynn, secretly signalling him to eat faster.
"And you have to win this match Jack. So that you can put certain people in their place" one of them said and some girls in the group glared at the Ravenclaw table, more specifically at Elsa who just raised an eyebrow. Jack didn't like the way they looked at Elsa and was trying to control himself.
"Yeah, so that some people don't think that they're superior to others by trying to steal others' boys" a fourth said bitterly, and now, all of them glared at Elsa and shamelessly tried to wrap their arms around Jack. And that was enough to erase all the hesitation in Jack's eyes, which were blazing with fury right now.
"Now you girls listen to me" he snapped and stood up and faced all the girls.
"First of all, no one tells me what I should or shouldn't do. Secondly, no one in this school thinks they're the superior ones, and thirdly, stop glaring at Elsa like that! If you've not noticed, she's the Head Girl of the school which gives you no right to talk about her like that. And if I ever see or hear you talking bad about her, I'll make sure to teach each one of you a lesson, understood?" he threatened. All the girls were completely frightened before he could finish his speech. They nodded and ran off, and that could be the only sound to be heard in the whole hall.
And that's when Jack realised that everyone, including the teachers, was looking at him, wide-eyed. Jack turned pink in embarrassment as many students from all the houses clapped him on the back. He blushed harder when he noticed Elsa burying her head in her hands as she turned red as the girls teased her. For a second, she looked up from her hands and Jack, feeling a little brave, smirked and winked at her. She turned impossibly redder and Jack couldn't help but grin at her cuteness. He then glanced at the staff table and found North proudly smiling at his nephew, the four house heads excitedly chatting and the other teachers smiling and softly clapping for him.
"Ok, ok, now all of you, off to the Quidditch Pitch! The match will be starting in a few minutes!" announced. All the students quickly ran to the pitch and waited for the players wearing white and green robes and the white and blue robes.
Jack casually glanced at Elsa as he always did before Quidditch matches. It was always the same: Elsa would get up, give Anna a hug, wish good luck to her Gryffindor sister and friend and also to her Slytherin bestie, the only three who are Quidditch players, if they're playing in the match. Then she would bid them goodbye and walk off to the library, unaware of a certain white-headed Slytherin watching her the whole time. But today was different and Jack started panicking.
"Shit! Flynn, Elsa's coming to the match!" Jack hissed as he pulled his best friend aside, Hiccup and Kristoff being pulled by the brunette.
"So what? Its usual for students to come to Quidditch matches" Kristoff shrugged.
"No, she's never attended even a single match before! So why now? Why today?! When I'm playing?!" The white-headed Slytherin whined.
"I can think of two options. Either Anna and the other girls convinced her to join them or she wanted to support her house and see you play. Yesterday wasn't a normal day, ya know" Hiccup smirked. Jack blushed and rubbed the nape of his neck nervously.
"Dude, chill out. Seriously, you're freaking out too much. I mean, this is her first match and you could impress her with your Quidditch skills..." Flynn trailed off slyly. Jack seemed to consider it before he started freaking out again.
"But what if I mess up?!" He exclaimed.
"Oh come on! You're the best Seeker in the whole school! When has Jack Frost freaked out about a match? Never! So why now?!" Flynn asked in frustration.
"That's because Elsa Winters never came to those!" Jack pouted.
"Listen, they didn't give you the title "Quidditch Star" for no reason! You got this Jack! Go there, catch the Snitch, impress Elsa and stop freaking out!" Kristoff shouted and pushed the two Slytherins towards the dressing rooms.
Yeah, I got this. I'm gonna show my great skills to the whole school today! Jack encouraged himself.
Soon the doors opened and the players hopped on their brooms and zoomed into the air. The Ravenclaw students entered first, receiving loud cheers from the stands. The Slytherin students made a grand entrance and Jack flew over the students, giving Hi-Fi's to the students who had their hands raised.
It wasn't hard to spot the platinum-blonde beauty in the stands, who grinned at him. With all the courage he had, he smirked, winked at her and blew a kiss. She blushed and rolled her eyes, the smile never fading. He grinned at the adorable sight and descended to the ground where Maui, the Quidditch teacher, stood.
"OK so I need a nice and clean game. Y'all better not try to cheat or its Bye-Bye Broom to you! Understood?!" He shouted. The players shouted a "Yes sir!" before he called for the captains.
Jack shook hands with Guy, the Ravenclaw Quidditch captain who was currently dating a Gryffindor called Eep. Both smirked at each other and then mounted their brooms. Maui soon blew the whistle and the Quaffle was released.
The Slytherin chasers, Astrid, Tuffnut and Ruffnut started their work and quickly scored a point each. The Slytherin keeper, a girl nicknamed Gogo, did a great work as she stopped two goals. The Slytherin beaters, Flynn and Eret, controlled the Bludgers expertly. And finally, our seeker, Jack Frost searched every nook and corner of the pitch for the tiny golden ball with wings.
When the score reached eighty-fifty with Slytherin in the lead, Jack spotted the Snitch hiding right above Punzie, whose hair matched with its colour. Jack smirked and dove towards it. The Ravenclaw seeker, Heather, seemed to have spotted it too as she too dove for it. She almost caught up to him but Jack was much faster on his Firebolt. But the Ravenclaw beater has swung his bat and the Bludger hurtled towards Jack. The latter noticed this and pulled back causing the Snitch to disappear in that millisecond. Jack wholeheartedly cursed under his breath and scanned the area.
His eyes fell on Elsa who was cheering happily. Rapunzel jumped on her and gave her a hug and Elsa, who was not expecting that, fell on Anna who in turn fell on Merida who quickly caught her. Punzie smiled sheepishly and got off her cousin and Mer pulled Anna to her feet. Jack laughed and held out his hand for Elsa, floating right above them. The students around them had stopped looking at the match and concentrated on the blushing pair. Elsa sheepishly took his hand and he pulled her to her feet. He heard students cheer again and saw that Ravenclaw had scored yet again and was leading by ten points. He quickly kissed her hand, winked and zoomed off, smirking at himself and blushing slightly.
He spotted Snitch innocently flying in circles between the stands. And that was where Heather was floating, unaware of the tiny ball. He dove in the opposite direction and glanced back and saw Heather following him. He flew in full speed towards the ground and he knew Heather was hot on his heels. And then, he did it.
He took a sharp turn and Heather, who had not expected that, went hurtling towards the ground. He quickly caught her hand so she doesn't get hurt as the broom fell. The girl looked up at him with questioning eyes. He smiled, left her on the ground and flew of towards the Snitch, which was still right there. Everyone cheered for him which made him smirk. He saw a Bludger coming his way but he didn't back out. He flew towards the Snitch as fast as he could. The whole audience was watching anxiously. All had the same question: is Jack gonna get his leg broken by the Bludger or is he gonna win? And in seconds, they knew the answer.
Jack had barely missed the Bludger but caught the Snitch at the same time. He roared in happiness and held his hand up, clenching the Snitch tightly in his hand. Everyone cheered for him, and even the ones who were supporting Ravenclaw clapped for the Seeker who had been excellent.
Jack descended and was enveloped by hugs from everyone. He laughed when Flynn and Kristoff raised him and placed him on the former's shoulders. The whole Slytherin team whooped with joy for their captain. Jack glanced at the stands and saw Elsa consoling Rapunzel who was pouting and fake crying like a baby. She caught him staring at her and grinned at him, which he reciprocated.
Best. Match. Ever! Was all he could think as everyone returned to the Great Hall for lunch. Flynn, Hiccup, Kristoff and Jack waited for the girls who walked down last. Astrid excitedly bounced to Hiccup who grinned before kissing her on her lips. Kristoff and Anna chatted about the match as they walked back and Flynn and Punzie had already ran off together to who-knows-where. Merida grinned at Jack and told him that she was impressed at how he had trained his team, before warning that she's gonna squeeze him in the Gryffindor versus Slytherin match.
Jack finally turned to Elsa and both tried their best to not turn red in the face.
"So, first game huh?" Jack chuckled. Elsa looked up and smiled, making Jack's knees to go weak.
"Yeah, and my house lost. Guess I'm some sorta bad luck" Elsa chuckled.
"Oh, nothing like that. Ravenclaw lost 'cause they can't beat someone as handsome as me" Jack smirked and placed an arm around Elsa's shoulders, pulling her closer. It took all of Jack's strength to not blush and to keep the smirk plastered on his face. But he didn't miss how Elsa blushed when he pulled her closer.
"So how did I play?" Jack asked slyly with a devious smirk.
"Not bad I guess. I was staring at our handsome captain you see" she smirked.
"Hey! FYI your captain already has a girlfriend so quit staring at him. Though I've heard the other captain is single" Jack replied with a smirk wiggled his eyebrows.
"Goodness, you're such a flirt!" She laughed.
"Jack Frost ain't a flirt Snowflake, unless it comes to you" he smirked again. Elsa laughed and shook her head.
"But seriously, how do you think I played?" He asked as he removed his hand from her shoulder and placed it around her waist to bring her closer.
"Why do you want to know so badly?" She laughed. Jack's smirk turned into a fond smile as he saw how happy she looked.
"'Cause yours means the most" he replied sincerely. Elsa looked into his eyes and blushed, looking away and tucking a strand of her hair behind her ear.
"Well, to be honest, it was brilliant. I've sometimes watched the matches from the library windows and I should admit, you're the best player I've seen" she admitted shyly. Jack flushed scarlet and looked around, nervous about what he wanted to ask next.
Its now or never Jack. He told himself.
"Um, Elsa?" He asked nervously as they reached the entrance of the Great Hall. He rubbed the nape of his neck, something he does whenever he was nervous or anxious. Or in this case, both. And that was something Elsa thought was cute.
"Yeah?" She asked and turned to look at him. Jack stared at her eyes, the said girl doing the same with his eyes. Jack managed to snap out of the trance when he remembered what he wanted to ask.
"Can I talk to? Alone?" He asked her and the nervousness was dripping in his voice. Elsa just smiled and nodded.
"Now?" She asked.
"How about you meet me at our tree? Say, at seven?" He asked and crossed his fingers in his pockets.
"Sure. See ya later" she smiled and turned to leave but then she paused. She turned and looked at him before pecking his cheek and she ran off. Jack stood frozen in his spot as he watched the girl of his dream run away while blushing.
"Uh, earth to Jack?" A voice snapped him out of his trance. He looked around and saw everyone having lunch and Flynn standing in front of him with a confused look.
"What the hell are you standing here for? Lunch is there. Why are you standing here- wait, I guess I get it." He grinned evilly as he eyed the lipstick mark on Jack's cheek.
"Can you believe that she actually kissed me on my cheek?!" Jack whispered excitedly so that people don't overhear him.
"Wait, you mean you guys haven't kissed before?" Flynn asked with raised eyebrows. Jack turned red when he remembered yesterday's events.
"We have. Twice actually. But we were in some sort of trance yesterday but today, she just kissed my cheek and ran off, blushing so badly" Jack admitted.
"Which means her feelings are mutual" Flynn stated before stuffing his mouth with the delicious food. Jack remained silent for the rest of the time, thinking about what he could do for her when confessing.
...
"She's coming!" Anna whispered. Everyone quickly ran off after wishing Jack good luck and after giving him a hug.
Jack stood in his spot, a little far away from the tree. He visibly gulped before turning to greet her when his eyes widened. His jaw dropped when he saw Elsa, walking towards him wearing an ice-blue dress which reached her knees. She smiled at him and walked towards him. (Its her ice dress, just ending at her knees)
She stopped in front of him and told something but Jack, who was still in a daze, just nodded.
"Gorgeous" he breathed out. Elsa turned a little pink before she giggled.
"Dummy, I said hi" she laughed. Jack nervously laughed and rubbed the nape of his neck again.
"So what did you want to tell me?" She asked brightly. Jack could only smile dreamily.
"Didn't I tell you that I want to talk to you at our tree? Well, as we are still far away from it, we have to still get there" he grinned.
Still smiling, Elsa shook her head and headed to the tree, but she paused and turned around and saw Jack still grinning dreamily at her which made her blush.
"Well, aren't you gonna come?" She asked playfully. He shook his head and jogged towards her and as she turned to walk again, he stopped her.
"Here, put this on" he said, giving her a blindfold. Elsa looked at him and raised at eyebrow.
"Dont worry Snowflake, I'm not gonna do anything to you. Unless you want me to?" He wiggled his eyebrows suggestively. Elsa punched his arm and took the blindfold.
"Pervert" she muttered as she tied it around. Jack helped her with that and she felt his breath on her neck which sent shivers down her spine.
"Just trust me, OK?" He smiled and took her hand in his. He lead the way, occasionally warning her about stones or water. He blushed profusely when he had to carry her as she can't walk over the roots which were sticking out around the tree as they reached it. He gently placed her on the ground and Elsa felt something crunch under her feet.
Is that...?
Her question was answered once Jack removed the blindfold and she was awestruck.
The ground around the tree was covered with snow, the tree completely frozen and looking silver in coloud as snowflakes hung on the empty branches. She looked around and saw that even a part of the lake was frozen in the shape of a circle, creating a perfect ice skating rink. There were snowflakes falling from the tree and some his in her hair.
"Oh my goodness! Jack this is beautiful!" She turned to the guy wearing a dark blue hoodie which had actual frost on it. He wore brown pants which ended a little below his knees and the bottom part was covered in frost as well. She giggled when she saw him holding a box of chocolates and a bouquet of ice roses. She looked up in his eyes and stared into his electric blue eyes with snowflake design.
"Elsa, ever since I met you, I knew I had to be a part of your life, in any way. You're so beautiful, kind, responsible, studious and cute that I couldn't help but develop a crush on you and I believe that its not just a silly teenage crush anymore. So I ask you this with all my heart, will you be my girlfriend?" He asked with a hopeful smile and a sincere expression. He tried not to panic when he saw Elsa's eyes widen.
"Jack I-" she stammered, completely shocked at how greatly he thought of her. She was about to jump on him and hug him but got a better idea. She slowly frowned and took the gifts in her hand and looked down at them.
"Jack I-I dont know what to say" she said and slowly placed them on the ground, internally smirking at what she was gonna do.
Jack's heart dropped when he heard her say that. What could he be thinking?! That she might actually like him back?! Him?! Jack Frost?! The most pathetic boy in school?! Why?! What made him think that she would actually like him?!
Jack hung his head, trying to blink away the tears.
"I-its OK. I-I understand that you d-dont see me that way. I'm sorry, I must've wasted your time. E-Excuse me" he said with closed eyes and was about to run away when he felt her hand grab his and something soft crashed on his lips.
His eyes blew wide open as he realised that she was kissing him. He had been too heartbroken and shocked at the same time that he lost all his senses. Elsa pulled back when he didn't respond and her eyes widened when he saw his eyes filled with tears.
"Jack? Oh my goodness I'm so sorry! I caused you to cry!? I'm really sorry Jack, I was just messing with you but I really didn't know that-" and she was cut off by his lips on hers. But unlike him, she responded quickly.
And just like the previous ones they've shared, their kiss was full of love. Jack kissed her happily and the tears that had first appeared due to rejection soon turned into tears of joy and flowed down his cheeks. Elsa pulled back but her forehead was still against his.
"Why are you crying?" She asked worriedly and wiped his tears. Jack laughed before wiping it off.
"Its because I've finally achieved my dream" he said and smiled at her, his arms tightening around her waist, pulling her closer to him.
"And that is?" She asked, burying her fingers in his hair.
"You" he whispered before capturing her lips again.
