Author's Note: I decided to do an epilogue for you guys. This is a just a little something for the story.

To JYFrozenAddict, you don't have to convince me to write more Frozen fanfics. I'm always up to write more. I actually have a story in the works, before I decided to do this epilogue.

To Alese222, if you have a preference for an actual sequel or a collection of one-shots, leave me a note in the review box below. If you rather see a sequel, you can request or suggest a story idea. And that goes to everyone else. If you have ideas for a sequel, then leave me a note in the review box or, if you have an account, send me a PM.

One last thing: Thank you all you guys who have seen this story through to the very end. It means a lot to me. It makes me so happy just like getting free chocolate.

Okay, so without further ado…

First Moment:

It was late in the morning when eight year old Elsa finished practicing her calligraphy and went to her window to see the outside world. When she leaned up against the window sill, she could see the beautiful spring day and her little sister making flower crowns with their mother outside. Elsa gripped her heart trying to subdue the ache that pulsed through her small body. How she wished was with her sister and mother and help make flower crowns, but she couldn't risk hurting the people she cared about the most, especially Anna. She was still traumatized from that night she accidentally struck Anna in the head nearly a year ago. Elsa would be nine in July and Anna's birthday was coming up in a few weeks in mid-April. She was soon to be six. Elsa sighed deeply. She wished she could do something for her sister's birthday while still maintaining such painful distance from her sister. Elsa pushed herself away from the window and circled around trying to think. She thought and thought and could not think anything at the top of her head. Maybe it would come to her when it came closer to Anna's birthday. With a frustrated sigh, Elsa walked over to her bookshelf and decided to read a book to occupy her time before she was had to take more lessons for the day.

When the time came for Anna's sixth birthday, she begged her parents to convince Elsa to come join them for the celebration, but her parents made an excuse why Elsa couldn't come out. Anna looked dejected and ambled over her to an extra room that had and climbed up on the couch. She crossed her small arms feeling indignant. Her parents had followed her and offered her a present: it was a new set of green hair ribbons. Although Anna usually liked simple gifts like hair ribbons and dolls, she was not happy. She wanted her sister to play with. Her mother frowned, but then asked her husband to get the present that was from Elsa. The King of Arendelle retrieved the present as quickly as he could and within minutes, he came back and offered the neatly wrapped and colorful box to his youngest daughter.

"Anna dear, this is for you."

Anna was silent. The king smirked. "It's from your sister."

That got Anna's attention. Her eyes went wide when she realized the box was from her sister. She didn't understand why she couldn't give it to her herself but she was glad her sister didn't forget about her at least. Anna carefully took the box from her father's hand and placed it on her tiny lap. Anna undid the ribbon with an unusual calmness for a six year old and removed the box's top. Inside the box was a small figurine which appeared to be made out of crystal, but when Anna picked it up it was ice cold. Despite the coldness pricking at her chubby, little fingers, Anna held the present like a precious jewel and saw that it was her and Elsa holding hands and smiling at each other. "Ooh…"

Anna couldn't believe how detailed the piece was, but was glad to have it all the same despite the fact that her sister was a mystery to her. She used to be an open book to her, but now she was a heavily locked up diary. However, she didn't have much time to admire it because her mother took it away and carefully stashed it back in the box. Before Anna could make a scene by crying, her mother swiftly gave her a reason for her action.

"Sweetie, how about we put this aside for now and find a place to display it later? Okay?"

Anna hesitantly nodded in agreement even though she wanted to know what it took Elsa to get her such a neat gift. Anna's mother gave the box to her father and asked him to put in a safe place until they found a proper place to display the icy creation Elsa had made for Anna. He nodded and went off to find a place for the box while the queen took hold of her daughter's hand to lead her back to the dining hall where they would have her birthday dinner and desert. All the while, Elsa stayed back peering from a corner to see her sister's reaction. She was told by their parents not to come by for Anna's safety, but she was as curious as a cat and wanted to see the look on her sister's face when she saw the present she made for her, but remained hidden as she did not want her parents to know she had disobeyed them. She usually would never disobey her parents, but she thought that just this one time she would do it just to see her little sister smile at the very sight of the ice figurine of the two of them holding hands and smiling at each other. She couldn't think of any good ideas so she thought she would get two birds with one stone by practicing controlling her powers and expressing that she still deeply cared for and loved her sister through the miniature ice sculpture of the two of them.

Before she could be seen, Elsa went back to her room once she saw the smile on Anna's face. She was happy to know that her present pleased her sister. She just wished she could be around her openly than to secretly look after her. Maybe there would come a day when she hold her sister close and play with her and show her how she loves her, but until that days comes she would have to stay away from her sister no matter how much it would hurt them both being separated.

Second Moment:

The sun was low in the afternoon sky marking the end of daylight and the beginning of the evening time. A gentle breeze blew over the trees and brushed off leaves of yellow, red, orange and brown. Twelve year old Princess Anna was coming back from a horseback ride in the royal track and field. She had a smile brighter than the sun on her face as she and her horse came closer to the castle. She pulled on the reins that they got close enough to the stables to stop her horse. Stablemen came to her aid when she was ready to dismount her steed. They helped her get off so she didn't get dirt on her riding clothes not because she wasn't keen on dirt, quite contrary, but because the queen didn't want her younger daughter to get her clothes dirty.

After Anna was off her horse and some stablemen assured her that her horse would be taken care, she sauntered back in the castle to change into a nice, green dress for dinner that night. When she got to her room, she saw a note lying on the floor in front of her bedroom door.

"What's this?"

Anna bent over to pick up the note and unfolded it and read it.

Anna,

There are three things that make the world wonderful:

Flowers are beautiful

Sunshine is warm

And chocolate is sweet

But you got all these things and more

Your smile is beautiful (and bright)

Your love is warm (and pure)

And your personality is sweet (and infectious)

Don't stop being you

Because then the world has one more thing

That makes it wonderful:

You.

Anna blushed out of embarrassment. She figured that he father must have written such a goofy yet really nice note. With a smile on her face, she stashed the note away in her pants pocket before entering her room to change. At the corner, fifteen year old Elsa had a book pressed against her chest. She sighed heavily as she walked back to her room. She had seen Anna pick up the note she had left an hour ago when she was on her way to the library to study, but now she came back and had seen her sister by coincidence. Walking to her room, Elsa was careful with her steps so Anna wouldn't suspect that she had passed by her room. When she got to her bedroom door, she opened it with her right hand and went inside.

Third Moment:

Fourteen year old Princess Anna was putting the finishing touches of her snowman. All she needed now was a carrot and some pieces of coal. Anna had set off to find the necessary items and from a distance, Elsa had been watching her through her bedroom window. Frost cover most of the window, she still had a clear view of her sister playing outside. While Anna had her back turned, Elsa waved her hand and etched the message: I love you Anna into the bottom of the snowman. She pulled back from the window when she saw Anna returning from her short journey.

When Anna had placed the pieces of coal and the carrot for eyes, buttons, mouth and nose, she pulled back to look at her masterpiece. She had a proud smile on her face, but then it dropped when she noticed a curious thing. Carved into the bottom of the snowman was the massage: I love you Anna. Anna raised her eyebrows in question. Could it be possible that her mother left the note for her without her knowing before she had to return back inside for royal duties? She must have done it behind her back to try and make amends since they had a little fight earlier on in the day and of course it was Anna requesting her parents to drag her sister out the cave she called a room. But her mother did not want to tell Anna that she couldn't keep asking for something was never going to happen. Feeling determined Anna tried one last time, but her mother cut her off in a fit of frustration. Anna could only assume that her mother was reaching out to her in an indirect way. Anna looked around for her mother in hopes that she might find her and talk to her.

"Mother?"

No answer. Just the cold howl of the winter day. Anna shivered. As much as she loved winter, she was bothered by the harsh, cold wind that came with it. The coldness made her think of her sister who had shut her off from her life for nine years now. But who was she to judge Elsa's character? She hardly knew what her sister was like. She was practically a ghost to her only occasionally acknowledging her existence when they happened to pass each other in the halls and shared meaningless greetings. Anna didn't like how Elsa treated her, but she also felt ashamed of herself when she thought of ill of her sister. After all her parents would sometimes tell her that Elsa a lot of responsibilities being heir to the throne and that it's in her personality to keep quiet. Anna found it suspicious every time when her parents made an excuse why Elsa had to hideaway in her room. Anna shook her head from the thought of not knowing her sister and went inside the castle to warm up.

Fourth Moment:

Princess Anna had come inside the castle and retreated to the parlor where she received her ice figurine from her sister ten years ago. She plopped down on the couch and stared at the blazing fire in front of her. It had been a while since her and Elsa's parents had died at sea. The castle and kingdom was still recovering from the loss of their benevolent rulers. Anna knew it was hard for her, but she had inkling that it was harder for Elsa. Despite not being in attendance at their parents' funeral, Anna had an inkling that Elsa was deeply depressed because if she believed it or not, Anna noticed that Elsa came out of her even less than before. She didn't think that was possible, but she guessed she was wrong. With a heavy sigh, Anna glanced to either of the couch until her eyes stumbled upon a steaming mug of hot chocolate and plate of cookies with a card that had her name on it. Anna inched over across the couch to the side table that had the cookies and hot chocolate.

Immediately after she arrived at her desired spot, Anna reached over and picked up the folded card on the side table. She read the note that was written with impeccable cursive and in relatively small font.

Dear Anna, I hope the hot chocolate and cookies will warm you up after spending a day in the snow. I'm sorry I wasn't there with you at Mama and Papa's funeral, but I didn't have the courage or strength to say goodbye to them. I'm also sorry that I can't see you. Mother and father had advised me to stay in my room for my lessons and studies. I hope that someday you'll forgive me and maybe I'll find the time to see you again. But just so you know, I have always looked after you. This may sound odd to you, but I have been watching you from afar making sure you didn't get hurt and that you weren't too far from mother when you two went out. Obviously, I don't know everything you do, but I know enough to know that you're very adventurous. As I remember you being as a five year old. But you're not a child anymore. Nonetheless, I'm sure you'll appreciate the hot chocolate and cookies. You still like chocolate and other sweet things, don't you? I would hope so since you have such sweet personally and bright smile. They go well with your beautiful face.

-Elsa

Anna was in a state of complete shock. Elsa, her sister, had left her a note with a mug of hot chocolate and a plate of cookies. After all these years, she left her a note. It was her way of communicating her thoughts and feelings to her without making face-to-face contact or any physical contact for that matter either. But once the shock had worn off, Anna re-read the note for a second and third time. She absorbed the information and still had trouble believing that her sister who seemed that a ghost in the castle could have known where and when she would be after playing in the snow. How did she know where to have the plate of cookies and hot chocolate be set down? Did she actually pay attention day-by-day and didn't bother to approach her herself? Maybe she saw her in brief moments but asked the staff of her whereabouts. That seemed more logical to Anna: Elsa asking a staff member where Anna was and where she would be.

Just before Anna reached over to grab the mug of hot chocolate, Kai walked into the parlor with a wool blanket folded over his arms. He walked over to the couch and stood a few paces in front of Anna.

"Princess Anna, here's a wool blanket to help you warm up."

Anna took the blanket from the loyal servant's arms. "What for?"

"Your sister, Princess Elsa, had a hunch that you would be here once you came inside from the cold. She had sent for the staff to prepare you some cookies and hot chocolate and bring a blanket to you. She would have done so herself but…."

Kai lingered on his words. He wanted to phrase his words delicately as to not ignite anger the in the younger princess towards her elder sibling. "But she has many duties to attend to considering that your parents are gone and that she'll have to wait to become of age and take the throne as your parents would expect of her."

"Did she say where she was going?"

Kai frowned at Princess Anna. He hated that he had to lie to her but it was for the best. "I'm sorry, Princess Anna, but I have not heard where your sister had gone off to."

"Oh."

"Is there anything else I could do for you, Princess Anna?"

"No. You may leave, Kai. Thank you for the blanket."

"I am only the messenger. Your sister planned this-"

"You may leave, Kai."

"As you wish, Princess Anna."

"Thank you."

Kai bowed to Anna before quietly leaving the parlor and closing the door behind him.

Anna wanted to scowl for her frustration of not know why Elsa had to stay in the shadows, but she couldn't find herself to do it. Instead, she could feel fresh, hot tears prick at the edges of her eyes. She tried to hold them back, but to no avail. They fell freely down her cheeks and stained the wool blanket that was over her lap. Anna curled her legs up to her body, wrapped her arms around her legs and dug her face into her knees not knowing what else to do with herself.

"Elsa…"

What came after was a chain of soft sobs bouncing off the walls of a nearly empty parlor. That night Princess Anna did not touch her hot chocolate until it was nearly lukewarm. But she drank all of it anyway because she needed something to sooth her scratchy throat after crying from a mixture of pain, aguish, frustration, and confusion.

Fifth Moment:

After a full day of work and play, Elsa and Anna head retreated once again to the library. Yet Elsa was still miraculously awake while Anna was asleep.

The day had been very busy for the two sisters. Of course they did ride their bike in the hall as promised and then they played chess, in which Elsa won as usual, then they had a picnic lunch in the garden and afterwards Elsa had to some work. But once she was done with the paper work for the day, Anna and Elsa had talked about anything and nothing at all while crocheting before dinner and after desert, they went for a walk around town and bought laced shawls and chocolate.

Once they returned to the castle, they decided on relaxing in the library before going to bed. Well, at least Elsa relaxed while reading a good book. Anna, on the other hand, curled up on the couch and had her head on her sister's lap softly snoring. Elsa held her book in her left hand while her right one occasionally stroked or scratched her sister's hair on her head. When the clock chimed on the wall, Elsa looked up at her book to check the time. It was eleven at night. Elsa closed the book she was reading and gently placed it on the side-table before stretching out her arms and back. Then she turned and tried to shake Anna awake, but it was no use as she was in a deep sleep. Elsa chuckled to herself.

"You big goof ball. You seem to have a bounty of energy, but when it comes to the end of the day, you just collapse like a tree and hibernate like a bear in the winter."

Elsa got up from the couch and carefully scooped her hands under her sister's body. Luckily, she hardly had a problem lifting her sister up and carried her out of the library and all the way to her bedroom. Elsa laid Anna down and pulled off her shoes before pulling the covers over her body. She tucked her in and smiled as she looked down at her sister. But something was amiss. Elsa looked around the room until she realized what was wrong with the scene. Elsa found what she was looking for and brought the item back to the sleeping form of Anna. Elsa bent down and tucked Anna's Elsa doll in her arms and kissed her sister's forehead. A quiet snore escaped the strawberry blonde's lips. Elsa smiled and gently stroked Anna's fringe off her forehead before taking a step back from the bed to fully examine her sister. She looked so precious and calm and happy. A feeling of pure joy swelled up in Elsa's heart as she let out a content sigh.

"I love you, Anna. Sweet dreams, little sister."

Elsa turned around and walked toward the door. When she cracked the door open and took a step out the room, Anna shifted in her sleep. Elsa peered over her shoulder and saw Anna's weakly flutter open halfway. She had sleep in her eyes, but Elsa could tell she was happy. In a quiet voice, Anna gave Elsa her semi-conscious response.

"I love you too, Elsa…and don't let the bed bugs bite."

Elsa smiled at Anna and the gesture was returned with a lopsided mouth and a small trail or drool pooling in the corner of said mouth. Elsa mouth a goodnight before softly closing the door to her sister's bedroom, but she didn't close it all the way until she caught a glimpse of Anna falling back asleep and tightened her grip on her Elsa doll.

With her sister's bedroom door closed all the way and feeling satisfied her sister was fine, Elsa made her way to her room. When she got there, she felt that she could rest easy from now on as Queen of Arendelle since she felt that she accomplished something that she had longed for for thirteen years: she was there for her sister both physically and emotionally. Elsa finally got to be her sister once more and nothing would ever separate them. The pain from all those moments melted away from her whole being-body, heart, soul, and mind, and disappeared from her memory. Elsa could herself in the present moment and in the past knowing she had always looked out for Anna even when she couldn't hold her to give her physical comfort. Before she could only watch from a distance, but now she had the opportunity to do everything over and do it right as she would hold and comfort Anna for many days and years to come.

Elsa had changed into her night gown and climbed into bed. She laid down and buried her head into her pillow. Once she was comfortable enough she allowed sleep to take over her body and leave behind not just the day, but also the pain and anxiety of the past. Elsa, in all her phases of life, only wished to physically be there for Anna and have fun with her and, now, her wish had been granted. Maybe dreams really do come true if you wish hard enough.

Second A/N: I know this is after the fact, but I would like to say how special I felt when this story reached 100 reviews. I don't know when some like that will happen again either in reviews, follows or even favorites. I'll savor it while I can. Also the third moment was inspired by this video: watch?v=4e24IyuVJe4 . So, if you guys are interested, check out the video.

In addition, I would like you guys to know that I have started another Frozen fanfic titled The Wolf's Beautiful Winter. It is rated M, but it's friendship and hurt/comfort, so please give it a shot. I noticed that not a lot of variety with different genre and rating so I want to kind of pioneer different combinations of ratings and genres. I hope you guys appreciate my effort. I will warn you that for those who might want a sequel to Frozen Heart that you'll have to wait for a little bit and in the meantime you guys can read The Wolf's Beautiful Winter.
