Chapter 28 (Conclusion Part One)
Elsa watched in disbelief as the block of ice with Lady Alexandra and Christian encased in a twisted tangle of opposites teeter over the edge of the cliff. She took one last look at their frozen expressions and they appeared, strangely, at peace. The two resembled marble statues representing yin and yang, chiseled by a sculptor with a need to express sadness and had been successful. The ice glistened as if covered by tiny diamonds as the duo fell over the precipice and disappeared from everyone's sights. Elsa ran to them, with Anna close to her heels, just in time to see the large splash as the ice made contact with the waters of the loch.
Elsa wobbled to her knees, breathless and in complete shock at what had just transpired.
"Elsa," Anna whispered, and gently hugged Elsa from behind where she kneeled as she stared at the ripples the impact of the icy tomb left behind. "Elsa, hey. It's not your fault," Anna soothed her, expressing what she knew to be the truth.
Elsa found it hard to digest Anna's comforting words. She had just killed two people – the ultimate fear of having such power.
"Christian… No, I'm so sorry," Elsa cried, cupping her hands over her mouth as she poured out her soul through cascading tears she had been trying so hard to hold back. Her head felt light. Everything in her vision was beginning to swim and waver like the remnants of a bad dream. Elsa didn't have the chance to apologize again and again to all those involved because she had been rendered unconscious by the horror of it all.
In a hazy world with no sounds to disturb the peace, Elsa saw Christian standing before her smiling the same peaceful smile he had given her the last time she had seen him.
She apologized and cried for him as she reached out to meet only the presence of air. She was unable to discern whether he was real or a figment of a lost world. But it was in this world he was restored the ability to speak with a soothing low voice in which a melodic sadness echoed similarly to the expression permanently in his eyes.
"Thank you, Elsa," he said, softly, barely a faint whisper. His eyes twinkled sorrowfully before his smiling face turned away from her. He walked further into the fog as Elsa screamed for him not to leave. So much people would miss him – he couldn't leave, not now, but he only walked on until he completely vanished, leaving her alone.
Elsa awoke with a fright. Her body was shaking and sweat weighed down the clothes someone had worn for her. A fire in the hearth illuminated the room as well as the worried face hovering above her.
"Elsa," Anna gasped as she quickly hugged Elsa so tight Elsa nearly lost consciousness again.
"Anna," Elsa managed to breathe out. "You're… Can't breathe."
Anna released her quickly and said, "Sorry, I was just so worried. You've been out of it for nearly three days now." Anna bit her bottom lip and looked Elsa over as if she hadn't seen her in years. "Oh, Elsa," Anna sighed, and hugged her more gently this time. Tears were streaming down Anna's face as she recounted the past three very stressful days without hearing Elsa's voice.
Elsa breathed in deeply the familiar scent of Anna and felt her fears melt away in the younger girl's embrace. So warm. And alive. Elsa thought, as her bruised hands swam up Anna's back and held tightly onto her shoulders.
Anna pulled from the hug back to stare at Elsa with a look of utter adoration – her eyes shining with happiness. Her fingers gingerly brushed against Elsa's cheek as they began to trace the little cuts on Elsa's pale skin. She started to kiss each one tenderly and Elsa winced when Anna's lips accidentally made contact with an open wound.
"I'm sorry," Anna gently whispered, and abruptly stopped. Elsa took Anna's wrists and pulled them back, wanting nothing more in the world than to feel Anna's hands touching her and making her feel safe from all the troubles in the world.
Anna continued and held Elsa's cheeks in her hands as she placed multiple kisses over Elsa's heart-shaped face starting from her forehead to her jawline. Anna's lips left burning marks in their wake and lighted a fire within Elsa she had sorely missed since their strange adventure.
Elsa was close to tears. Sadness and joy mingled with a newborn burden rattled her senses, and she couldn't stop shaking at the memory of what she had done despite Anna's comforting presence.
"Christian," Elsa choked, staring at her hand which expelled the icy power and ended two lives. "Anna, I killed him," she said, aloud for the first time, making the deed a million times worse as she heard herself confess it in the open. "After all he did for us… I'm not even sure I got to thank him."
Anna held Elsa's shaking hands to kiss the top of each one tenderly and whispered, "I'm sure he knows," Anna softly said. "You did what you had to. You saved so many lives and so many homes from burning. Everyone's proud of you, Elsa, especially me."
Anna's breath warmed Elsa's cold hands as she spoke, and Elsa's silent tears wetted the places where Anna's lips touched. Anna continued to comfort her in any way she could, and Elsa did not know how to receive such treatment except to burrow her head in the crook of Anna's neck.
"I'm… so tired," was all Elsa could think of to say. Lame, I'm still so lame with my words. You'd think after all the craziness I've been through, I'd have more interesting dialogue to offer.
Anna smiled and cradled Elsa as she kissed the top of her blonde head. "You've slept for three days. Want to sleep for three more?" Anna teased.
"That doesn't sound so bad," Elsa mumbled tiredly against Anna's collarbone.
Anna giggled lightly and said, "I'd miss you too much. Please, try and sleep for less this time, Sleeping Beauty."
Elsa smiled at the reference and moved up to kiss Anna languidly on the lips, drawing little sighs from the younger girl's lips as Elsa felt her body tremble from the contact. "Will you be my prince charming?" Elsa teased, and Anna laughed at the thought.
"No, I'll be your Maleficent," Anna suggestively said, the reference going over Elsa's head as she continued to kiss her.
Elsa was becoming sleepier and more fatigued as the time passed and she reluctantly pulled her lips from Anna's, but Anna refused to stop so soon.
"Anna," Elsa wearily sighed, wishing she could continue, but her body was shutting down on her as it always did at the most inconvenient times.
"Elsa, you're such a tease," was the last thing Elsa heard Anna say with a pout on her lips as sleep overtook Elsa once more.
It was the bright sunlight which woke Elsa up from yet another long sleep. Elsa turned over, trying to shield her eyes from the glare only to bump into a sleeping form beside her.
Anna, with her hair in its usual tangled knots, was drooling as she relished a well-deserved rest. Elsa smiled at the sight and regretted missing years of Anna's morning bedhead as she grew up.
Elsa lightly stroked Anna's cheek and she stirred mumbling Elsa's name. Anna moved her arms and legs like a dog dreaming and Elsa stifled a chuckle with the tips of her fingers. Anna continued to kick away as she dozed and accidentally kicked Elsa's hip in the process.
"Ouch!" Elsa instinctively yelled out as Anna's leg made contact with her hip bone.
Anna awoke to see Elsa wincing with her eyes shut in pain. She moved in and placed a hand on Elsa's waist. "Hey, sorry. Did I hit you or something?" Anna mumbled, still half-asleep with her face a few inches away from Elsa's.
The combination of their breaths made the space between them warm and steamy, lulling Elsa in a state of serenity. She looked at Anna and said, "No, just… you kicked me." Elsa softly laughed, and Anna blushed.
"Sorry," Anna apologized again and tried to run a hand through her messy hair, but it was impossible. Her fingers got caught and she struggled to pull them back out.
Elsa laughed lightheartedly in what felt like an eternity when she had last done so. It felt good, it made her feel much more alive.
Anna gave Elsa a playful look and moved in to tickle her sides, straddling the blonde as she did so.
"Think it's funny do you!" Anna squealed with laughter as she pinned Elsa to the bed and mercilessly tickled her, her red hair cascading over Elsa's face.
Elsa was brought into a fit of giggles as she was caught in a red hurricane of Anna's hair whipping around her and filling her vision with streaks the color of flames.
Flames, Elsa's mind brought her back to grim reality, and she hated herself for always ruining the best moments in her life. Shut up, brain, Elsa reprimanded, wanting to forget about the horrid night which did not – could not – have been real. For now, it was just her and Anna.
Just let me enjoy this moment, Elsa bargained with her own anxiety. And then I can be a nervous worry-wart again, okay?
Her mind conceded when Anna pressed her body down to touch lips with Elsa's. Anna's body melded well with Elsa's and she laid atop her as easily as a cat would pounce on its owner. Anna wasted no time and relocated her thigh to press firmly between the middle of Elsa's legs. Anna maneuvered her thigh up, down, in small circles, and repeated.
Elsa pulled Anna's body down further to feel every curve and every inch, wanting to become lost in these simple pleasures – no queenly duties, no villainous threats, no Christian…. Just Anna.
Anna nibbled at Elsa's bottom lip, playfully nipping, biting, and licking at the sensitive skin as she teased her into a state of pure ignorance.
"Anna," Elsa gasped, feeling sweat beading on her forehead, wanting a release and feeling it building up already even though it was just foreplay.
You are such a virgin, Elsa's thoughts interrupted as she writhed beneath Anna unintentionally – her body was slowly taking control of her mind and Elsa didn't care, her brain needed to shut up once in a while.
Anna was breathing heavily as she roamed and explored Elsa's body with her right hand, the other slightly tugging at the hair on the back of Elsa's head. Anna proceeded to suck hard on Elsa's smooth neck where her pulse point throbbed in her hot mouth, and nearly making Elsa climax from the force of the suction between Anna's lips.
God! Where did Anna even learn how to do these things? Elsa couldn't help but think as Anna grinded against Elsa's left thigh, moaning softly into her ear, but making sure she was servicing Elsa as well.
Anna moved her fingers downwards until they reached Elsa's panties, tugging and teasing the fabric as she threatened to enter.
Elsa touched Anna's wrist and looked into eyes filled with lust. Her best friend, confidant, and partner, she was everything to Elsa.
"Do you… want me to?" Anna meekly asked, uncharacteristically from her usual bold self.
Elsa shyly looked down and back into Anna's inquisitive eyes. Anna was still mindlessly rubbing her thigh against Elsa's core, and Elsa felt herself slowly going over the edge. Her head was light and her mind felt like it was floating from her body – or was it the other way around? Either way, all of her senses were elevated to new unfamiliar heights and Elsa couldn't get enough of the sensation. She couldn't stop it. The combination of Anna staring deeply into her eyes as her thigh firmly rubbed against her was all too much to take.
Elsa had climaxed, embarrassingly early. Elsa shielded her face with her hands as waves of pleasure pulsated throughout her entire body rendering her immobile as her back arched. She tried not to moan, but couldn't stop a few escape from her lips as Anna intently stared at her like a scientist would watch his subject.
Anna smiled self-satisfactorily and peppered light kisses across Elsa's collarbone as she arched forward during the last part of her orgasm, Elsa was splayed out tiredly beneath Anna with her eyes tightly shut and breathing erratically. Anna chuckled, and bent down to whisper in Elsa's ear, "Aw, I was just getting started."
Now fully aware and back down to earth, Elsa blushed madly from Anna's comment, making her cheeks reds and the top of her chest even redder. She turned away from Anna trying to hide her embarrassment.
Anna kissed Elsa's red cheek and said, "Don't worry, we'll have plenty of time to have more fun later, but now, Arendelle is waiting for their Queen so you should get ready. What would they think if they see you all flushed with your hair all a mess?"
"You didn't tell me I had to attend a ceremony!" Elsa panicked, jumping out of bed.
Anna laid on her elbow and watched Elsa scurry around the room throwing her clothes in a pile. Anna giggled when Elsa stripped down to only her underwear as she prepared to take a quick shower. "Sorry, must have slipped my mind," Anna sighed, and continued to stare at Elsa, wanting to stay in their own little world a little while longer.
