This story has become one of my most highly reviewed stories. When did that happen? Guys, thank you all, so much. You have no idea I much I love hearing from you. I get all excited every time I see there are new reviews. Thank you for sharing the love and to show my love a sickeningly sweet chapter. Enjoy!


"You want to go out with Jack Frost?" Agdar raised a sharp eyebrow, looking across the kitchen table at his eldest daughter.
"Yes,"
"Today?"
"Yeah, this evening around five,"
"Why are you now asking?"
"Because we only made plans a few hours ago,"
"If you made plans when you met with him yesterday why didn't you mention it when you came home,"
"That's the thing, we didn't make the plans yesterday,"
"But you said a few hours ago?" Her mother said.
"Yes, and that's true," Elsa said.
"But you haven't texted him since the day before. I would have known," Anna said. Elsa shot her look before turning back to her parents.
"We sort of made the plans last night…this morning to be exact,"
"When did this happen?" Anna's eyebrows shot up.
"Around 2:25, he called me,"
"What? How'd I miss that?" Anna exclaimed.
"You know the time he called down to the minute?" Her mother asked. Elsa blushed and shrugged.
"He called at two in the morning to ask if you could hang out?" her father asked.
"Not exactly," Elsa blushed slightly, "He didn't call to ask that… we just sort of decided to meet up,"
"Then why'd he call,"
Elsa's blush deepened. She looked down at her lap, nervously rubbing the back of her neck, "Well…he called when it started to snow. He knows how much I love winter and I thought I would like to see the first snowfall,"
"AWWWW!" Anna gushed. Elsa shoved her off her chair. Anna didn't seem to mind as she laughed giddily from the floor. Elsa's parents looked at each other, smirking.

"Is that so?" Said her father, a coy grin on his face. Elsa was blushing deeply. "I guess you can go,"
"Really?" Elsa looked up in surprise. She wasn't expecting her dad to agree with such short notice.
"Yes, we trust you. But don't make a habit of it,"
"Wow, I didn't think you would say yes,"
"Do you want me to change my answer?"
"No," Elsa shook her head vigorously waving her hands for emphasis. Her mother chuckled and Anna was still snorting on the ground.
"Alright, it's not that funny," Elsa said frowning.
"Believe me, it is," Anna wiped away tears of laughter, "If you could see your face you'd know how funny it is," Elsa huffed, turning away from her sister to avoid her smug grin and to avoid from her seeing her own flaming cheeks.
"You're so annoying sometimes,"
"I love you too sis,"


"Wow, Elsa," Anna stopped dead as she stepped in their room. She folded her arms, grinning widely. She leaned against the door frame, taking in Elsa's white down jacket with a slimming black band around the waist, black accents on the pockets, zipper and sleeves and a brown fur trim along the hood; and the matching black leggings and black fur trimmed boots.
"Are you trying to give Jack a heart attack?" Anna smirked.
"I'm hoping more along the lines of a minor stroke," Elsa said without looking up as she looked through a chest of drawers.
"Well that outfit should get the job done, but I thought you didn't dress up for your 'not-a-date's"
"I don't," Elsa threw a smirk in her sister's direction.
"This isn't dressed up?" Anna asked, cocking an eyebrow.
"I'll call this somewhere in the middle,"
"If you get dressed up for dates and throw on anything for your not-a-dates then what do we call you and Jack going out today,"
Elsa made a sound of triumph as she pulled out a pair of black mitts before turning towards Anna, "It's called two friends going to enjoy a snow day,"
"If you want to enjoy a snow day you and I could have built a snowman,"
"Then that would be two sisters enjoying a snow day,"
"Technicalities," Anna snorted, "We both know something happened when he called you last night,"
"You didn't even know he called until I told you," Elsa said brushing past Anna going downstairs. Anna followed after her.
"True," Anna admitted, "But you've been grinning all day, and not just any grin. That, 'everything is right with the world' grin you get when something good happens."
"You classify my grins?"
"Well duh," Anna looked at Elsa like this was obvious, "I even have them in two categories. The happy smiles and evil grins,"
"I have more than one evil grin?"
"Yes you do. You've got your 'I just beat my little sister in a game' borderline evil grin. Then you have the full blown 'planning something wicked and/or funny' evil grin. And of course you have this knowing smirk that you get whenever you pull something over on someone, like the one you're wearing right now, because you think you made me forget about your 'somewhere in the middle of a date and not a date' date with Jack. Jeez Elsa, just start dating him already. It's getting too complicated to try and figure out what you two are,"

Elsa shook her head, "If you can read me so easily why can't you figure out what Jack and I are,"
"That's the thing," Anna tapped her chin thoughtfully, "I can't figure out where you and Jack stand. It's like you're tiptoeing the border between friendship and relationship and you don't know which side you want to be on,"
Elsa stared at Anna with an incredulous look on her face. Anna just shrugged under the questioning gaze, "Well that's what it looks like," She said matter of factly.
"Yeah, well things might-" The rest of Elsa's sentence was cut off by the doorbell.
"That's Jack," Anna leapt to answer the door. "Hi," She said brightly as the door swung open. "Don't you look dapper?" Anna teased. Jack was a long dark gray beret coat, black jeans with a white, grey and black plaid scarf. "If I didn't know better I'd say you were trying to impress someone,"
"Hey Anna," said Jack, greeting her with a smile. "You aren't going to use your 'dad' voice on me today are you?" He joked.
"She won't have to," The girls' father walked into the foyer, "Because I'm here to use to it,"
Jack paled, "Good afternoon sir," He said.
"Good afternoon Jack, how are you?"
"I'm…" Jack gulped, "I'm good."
"I'm glad to hear that. I was worried that you'd be feeling guilty seeing as you put my families plans on hold so you and Elsa could go out,"
Jack made a sound akin to fish gasping for breath.
"Daddy, don't act like you were planning to anything other than sit in front of the TV," Elsa reprimanded him.
"Yes, but he need not know that,"
"Agdar, stop torturing the poor boy,"
"What is a father's purpose if not to strike fear into the hearts of his daughters' boyfriends?"
"Don't worry Jack," Anna told him, "He does the same thing with my boyfriend too, so you're not alone," Elsa could only sigh at her family, "I'll see you guys in a little while," she kissed her parents on the cheek and jabbed Anna playfully in the ribs before grabbing the still gasping Jack by the forearm and pulling him off the porch.

Anna closed the door and turned to her parents, "You noticed it too, didn't you?" She asked with a grin. Her mother nodded with a smile. Her father on the other hand looked confused.
"What are you talking about?"
"That's the first time Elsa hasn't denied that Jack's her boyfriend," His wife took him. His face seemed to process no less than fifty different emotions in five seconds.
"What!? But I was only joking,"
"It's seems like they aren't. I was wondering why she didn't want to tell me about her call with Jack."
"So they are dating now? Elsa promised she'd tell us when that happened,"
"I think she just did," Anna said smirking.
"Agdar, dear do you want to sit?" His wife asked.
"Yes please,"
She led him into the living room and he fell back into his La-z-boy.
"Is dad okay?" Anna asked, concern written on her face.
"He'll be fine. He's like this whenever the reality hits that you girls are dating someone. He took a full half an hour to recover when you and Kristoff went on your first date."
"Really?"
Her mother nodded, "He still doesn't want to accept that his baby girls are growing up,"
"It's not my fault they are growing up so quickly,"
Anna and her mother giggled.
"Do you want some coffee dad?"
"How about something stronger?"
"Agdar!" His wife admonished while Anna laughed harder.


"Frost, are you with me?" Elsa waved her hand in front of Jack to snap him out of his stupor.
"Your dad doesn't like me much does he?"
"Don't take it to heart. He never likes any of Anna's and mines guy friends at first. He'll warm up to you, once he gets over his mourning phase,"
"Mourning phase?"
"Whenever he remembers Anna and I aren't five anymore and we'd rather be in the company of teenage boys than snowmen, well he gets a bit depressed."
"Yeah, I can see the dilemma there," Jack said, then gulped, "Is he going to give me 'the talk'?"
"Normally he likes to make you sweat for a while,"
"What?" Jack's mouth became dry.
"Kristoff and Anna were officially dating for two weeks before one night when he dropped Anna back home dad asked him to come in."
"What happened?"
Elsa shrugged, "We won't in the room and Kristoff has never told us,"
"It's going to be torture, isn't it,"
Elsa giggled and pulled him closer to her. "No it won't. Just don't think too much about it,"
"How can I not?"
"Well, you have two feet of fresh powder around you and a pretty girl at your side. One of those two things should be able to hold your attention,"
Jack laughed, "And you had the audacity to call me vain,"
"If the shoe fits,"
Jack pushed her playfully. "Winters, you are a shred minx."
"I won't deny it," She took his hand in hers, "So where are we going?" She asked noticing he'd come without his car today.
"I thought we could go for a walk, enjoy the first snow of the season,"
"Sounds good to me,"

They walked arm in arm, without any set destination in mind.
"Ellie's already asking when will you be coming over again,"
"It's not fair, why do you get the adorable little sister and I have Anna?"
"Adorable? Maybe to you. I think her purpose in life is constantly make mines more difficult,"
"Don't be a drama queen, Ellie isn't that bad."
"You've only spent a few minutes with her," Jack said, "Try living with her and then we'll talk,"
"I'd love to live with her. How about we switch? You take Anna and I get Ellie,"
"That sounds good to me. And I know Ellie will feel right at home at your place, seeing as you have so many ponies and what not,"
Elsa hit in the arm, laughing lightly, "I told Anna about Ellie, and she's wants met her,"
"Huh, I wonder why?" Jack said sarcastically, "Those two in the same room would be potentially disastrous for us,"
"No need to use 'potentially'. Nothing good could come of our sisters meeting, especially if we're there when it happens,"
"Funny, how they're so much alike,"
"Mmh-mm," Elsa nodded.
"Do you think all little sisters just come with the 'live to annoy older sibling' setting turned on,"
"It's a possibility," Elsa said laughing.

Jack saw they'd ended up by the park.
"There's something I want to show you," Jack pulled her into park.
"What is it?"
"I don't want to ruin the surprise, but you'll love it, I'm sure," He smiled. He led her to small tree, that had to very young. It stood at fourteen, fifteen feet for the most, with the lowest branches extending out just a few inches over their heads. Jack placed Elsa next to the trunk.
"Okay you see that cluster of rocks there," He pointed somewhere in the distance
"Next to lake?"
"Yep, just keep watching it," He glanced up and adjusted her by a few inches.
"What am I supposed to be looking for?"
"Just keep watching, you see in a few moments,"
Jack took several steps back slowly. He positioned himself facing the tree trunk. The thin, slim trunk should be just pliable enough for this. He kicked the trunk with the flat of his boot and jumped back. The vibrations of the kick reverberated up the trunk and outwards to the branches causing the snow laying on the leafless limbs to cascade down.

Elsa gasped when the snow hit her. Some of the cold slurry slipped down the back of her jacket and she could feel it trickling down her spine sending shivers through her. Jack cracked up, clutching his side as he doubled over with hysterical laughter.
"Hahaha…I can't…haha…I can't believe you feel for that…hahahaha…Ellie doesn't even fall for that one any more…hahahahahaha!"
A snowball hit him right in the face and second one followed.
"Ow," He covered his face with his hands, "Hey, hey hold on a second." He complained as the ammunition continued to bombard him. He tried to retaliate but the moment he dropped his arms to grab some snow he received a sphere of snow right to the nose. He stumbled back, tripping over a root hidden by the snow. He scrambled away, pouncing forward with his hands and knees until he could get his feet under him.

"You'd better run Frost," Elsa yelled after him giving chase. Jack picked up fistfuls of snow and lobbed them over his shoulder, but it wasn't easy to aim backwards. And apparently it was very easy to aim forward because every few seconds Jack felt a snowball hit his back with a solid 'thud'. He ran up a short by steep slope and skated down the other side by leaning all his weight back. He ducked behind a large oak catching his breath. He heard Elsa's footsteps slowdown. He bit his lip to stop from breathing through his mouth and waited. There was a moment of silence then he heard the crunching of boots in snow. Slowly, very slowly, staying as close to trunk as possible he edged around the tree as Elsa got closer.

"Jack?" She called out. He grinned, liked he fall for that. The moment he looked out he'd get a face full of snow. But that wasn't would happen. Oh no, Elsa would be the one eating snow. When he'd gone two thirds of the way around the tree he risked peeking around the trunk. Elsa was standing a few feet away, her back to him. Perfect. He charged. She heard the footsteps. She turned and saw him. He jumped. She ducked.

Jack went right over Elsa and face first into a snow bank. Even with snow clogging his ears he could hear Elsa's brilliant laughter. He could feel the air buzzing with the sound. Okay, so he'd lost the snowball fight. It was worth it to hear that laugh. He pulled himself out of the snow, allowing himself to fall back so he was sitting.
"Oh, you should have seen how you looked." Elsa said wiping tears from her eyes, "It reminded me of the way an ostrich sticks it's head in the sand. I wish I'd taken a picture."
"Go ahead Princess, laugh it up."
"You were the one who started it,"
Jack ran his hand through his hair, shaking the snow from it.
"Jeez Winters you are like a monster with a snowball,"
"One of my many exceptional qualities. I do hold an undefeated record."
"Wish I'd known that before I dumped all that snow on you,"
Elsa laughed again, "I'll give you points for that. It was pretty clever what you did,"
"One of my favourite pranks." Jack said grinning. Elsa sat down in the snow next to him.
"Figures you'd have a favourite prank that can only be done in the winter," She bumped his shoulder with her own.
"I'm not the one who has the nickname the 'Ice queen'."
"'Who stayed up half the night when there was an expected snowfall so he could see the first flakes of the season?"
"Don't pretend like you've never done that," He leaned towards her a bit.
"No actually I haven't."
"You are so lying,"
"Am not,"
"Are too,"
"Am not,"
"Are too,"
"Am-" Elsa's voice broke off when she realised they'd inexplicably gotten closer. She was almost sure there wasn't a measurement small enough to describe the space between their faces…their noses just barely touching with the faintest of brushes. And their lips. Oh god, Jack was biting his lower lip.
"Yes?" Jack's voice had gone low and quiet.
"What?" Elsa's eyes flickered from his lips to his eyes. His captivating blue eyes that were half hidden by semi closed eyelids.
"You were saying something," He told her. Had his voice gone even lower? It was little more than a husky whisper.
"Was I?" Her brain tried to recall what it might be, but that was too much to process since half her brain was already occupied with Jack's eyes and the other half, his lips.
"Mmh-uh," He nodded causing the gentlest of friction that make sparks burst with the contact, "I think you were going to say…"
"Shh," Elsa leaned forward.

The moment was mind numbing and heart pounding and filled with electricity. Jack swore he could hear it sparking in the cold air and Elsa wondered if that was why her hairs were standing on end. That single instant of contact felt all at once like a endless surging cascade of energy and limited drug that they both desperately needed more off. And when they parted (either a second or year later, they won't sure really), it was only only by a hair's breadth.
"Damn Elsa, that was…wow,"
"I'd say," She grinned.
"You don't know how long I've been imagining that moment."
"Having fanatics about me huh, Frost," She quirked a smug eyebrow. Jack laughed, low and light.
"Maybe one or two,"
"Did it live up to expectation?"
"Oh no," Jack shook his head, "It blew way past any expectations. Where'd a Princess learn something like that?" Jack's thumb brushed along her cheek.
"Some people are just born with natural talent," She teased.
"If you born able to go that then you're no princess, you're a goddess,"
"Stop with the flattery and kiss me again,"

Jack was more than happy to oblige.


Two hours later in the Winters home the family was watching a show together in the living room when they heard the door open and close. They waited, all expecting Elsa to appear in the doorway. When that didn't happen her mother called out, "Sweetheart? Is that you?"
No reply. The trio glanced at each other, then Agdar stood walking into the other room. There was a pause before "Anna, could you come tell me what's wrong with your sister?" He called out. Anna and her mother all but ran to foyer.

Elsa evidently had leaned against the door as she entered the house and slipped down to the ground. She was now sitting there, red faced, hair slightly dishevelled and the cherry on top was the huge grin on her face.
"Wow," Anna laughed seeing her. She knew right away what happened, "That good huh?"
Elsanodded.
"On a scale from tingly to bright white light?" She asked.
"Toe curling,"
Anna let out a low whistle.
"What's going on here?" Their father asked looking between the sisters. Anna was helping Elsa off the ground heading towards the stairs.
"I believe Jack and Elsa kissed dear,"
"Judging from her stupid grin I'd wager they did more than that,"
"ANNA!"


I was initially going to have the kiss be interrupted before it even happened by someone seeing them. But then I realised I really really wanted to write more moments between them (because all the moments already aren't enough). And I also realised that if I pulled a kiss troll you all would want to hunt me down (probably with pitch forks and torches in hand).

I hope you enjoyed it.
