A.N. Somehow, this little thing never got posted anywhere, probably because it was originally meant to be part of a multichapter fic that never was. Anyway, decided to include it here.

Written late 2015.

Suddenly, like something made click in her mind Anna's eyes widened and her mouth formed a wide smile as she exclaimed.

"Elsa! You're in love!"

"Anna… What do I know about love?" Elsa's eyes grew wide and sad, reflecting the bright sunlight into a glim of sadness. She looked right into her sister's eyes, making Anna's bright smile disappear.

"Oh, no Elsa. Please don't repeat that old shoe I said back than! You know I was terrible wrong about that. If somebody knows what love is, then defiantly you. You sacrificed your whole childhood- what do I say- your whole life because you love me and you love your people. It was you who made the Thaw. You saved us all!"

"First, I do not just repeat what you said back then. And secondly, it was you- if I may remind you- who sacrificed her life to save me. So it was you who saved me and Arendelle, not the other way around."

"Okay, let's say we both had a big deal to do with all that happened back then. But I won't step back from my believe that you exactly know what love is. Didn't you say you love me more than once?" She still could not believe that after all this time Elsa had such a deformed picture of herself. It became silent for a moment or two, it was hard to tell. They sat beside each other at the bench, the birds were singing, the sun was shining, but for Anna this moment was torment, for she saw a shadow opening it self around her sister again.

"Yes, Anna. I love you more than I could anyone else. But this is different… and would be different." Elsa lowered her look upon her hands in her lap, suddenly closing them together in the old habit. Her eyes were not wet, but her gaze was thoughtful and her heart felt heavy. Trying to find the right words, Anna hesitated for a second, but then again she knew she would not let her sister back in the old darkness.

"Look at me. I know that after so many years it will sound stupid to you- you have heard it all your life- but I have to say it again: Don't be afraid."

"Oh, I know what you're trying to tell me and I know that in your eyes I may act strange, but I can't help it. I feel so uncomfortable around him and yet not that way uncomfortable, because I like it when he is here. And…. I… I just don't know how much am I able to take." Elsa took a deep breath, as if she wanted to try to say more, but then her strength gave away.

"Don't say that. You've come such a long way and you are so strong and perfect. Many years I wished I could be more like you. And between us, he is the most perfect catch I could wish for you to have!"

"He is smart… and very sweet to me. But then, I always start to think about this" and while saying that she turned her palms up and a few fragile flurries appeared. Anna somehow knew where this could lead to, in the first time after the Great Thaw she had spend many hours talking with Elsa about everything that troubled her older sisters thoughts and while Elsa always considered Anna as her little sister, Anna her self had the ability to see further than Elsa could. It was hard to tell if it was because of a child-like innocence her thoughts possessed or if it was simply her nature.

"Elsa, listen. Your powers are not you, you are your powers."

"What?"

"Let me put in better together. You have magical AND wonderful powers over snow, but this powers are part of you like my clumsiness is part of me or my inability to sit still for more than a minute or my unliking for math or my…"

"Yes, I got that part."

"See? Now, you are so much more than just your wonderful- I repeat- wonderful powers, just like I hope I am more than just a walking disaster. You are smart, and know every thing about politics and history and geometry, you are beautiful, you are a wonderful Queen and you are the greatest sister I could imagine!" Anna's thoughts galloped into more and more nice things she could say, for Elsa truly possessed so many qualities Anna looked up to, that it could take a while for her to count them all down. She brightened a bit when she saw a smile appear on Elsa's lips. Tiny, but still a smile.

"You make me laugh and I'm thankful you try to cheer me up. I only wish I could sometimes be more easy-going, like you."

"But you are you and I am me, and I'm happy this is the way that it should be."

"Isn't that from a poem book I once gave to you?" Elsa asked now giggling.

"Is it? Well, seams like I can remember poems after all. But now back to you. Will you?"

"Will I what?"

"Give it a try, give him a try. Take your chance and ride with your noble prince Charming in the sunset and into your both happy ever after and…"

"You should someday stop reading this novels of yours."

"But will you?" Anna asked. Again a long pause from Elsa while Anna looked at her with huge wondering eyes. Slowly the older one took a deep breath and straightened her back, becoming once more somehow secure again.

"I… I will try. Or more correctly if it should go that way I… I won't run away. Maybe"

"That's my big sister! And please, always remember: You are worth it."

P.S. The poetry book mentioned here is a small inside joke as the words are from "A Sister More Like Me" by Barbara Jean Hicks with illustrations by Brittney Lee. I gifted that book to my little sister for Christmas 2014. Time flies fast.
