The young king stepped down the boat, smiling. He imagined Elsa's surprised face, he imagined her hugging him. She was all he could think about.
He signaled one of the guards for a horse, and galloped towards the castle.
The gates opened as soon as the guards saw Xavier. The news that Elsa liked Xavier quickly spread around the kingdom. No one wanted to make the queen unhappy too. He walked down the halls, and softly knocked on Elsa's door. No reply. Xavier quietly stepped in, knowing that the queen wouldn't mind. The room was breathtaking. Probably an artist made this. The ice wasn't melting, even though the room wasn't very cold. Artificial ice? He shook his head. No one has ever heard of anything like it.
He stepped back onto the hall and found a group of maids, happily chatting in a corner. As soon as they saw the king, they quickly took out their brooms and started sweeping. He smiled. Do you really think I'm that stupid? He walked over to them and asked where Elsa was. One of them blushed. The other looked away. The last just curtsied and told him they were in the ballroom. He walked away, hearing loud whispers about him from the maids.
Xavier pushed open the heavy double doors leading to the ballroom. Then he saw. The whole room was covered in ice, with frost creeping up the walls. There were snowbanks, some big, some tall, and some just a couple centimeters up the floor.
The two girls saw him and stood up, furiously wiping snow off their dresses. They both curtsied and smiled at him. Xavier, however was still trying to take it all in.
"How... How- how did you do this?" He stammered, eyes wide open.
Anna raised an eyebrow at her sister. You didn't tell him?
Elsa blushed. She wasn't sure if she should tell him now. What if he didn't believe her? What if he thought she was a freak? "Some of the neighboring kingdoms had plenty snow because of the blizzard," She lied, "They said that if we wanted some snow and ice, we can just send a letter." She closed her eyes, hoping the lie would fool him.
Xavier's eyes searched the place again. Everyone knew about the blizzard. It was crazy. From what he's heard, there was one, a big one, right in the middle of summer. It was near here, and some of it still hasn't melted. "How about the frost?"
The redhead spoke up. "It was made by an artist, Your Majesty." She smiled sweetly at him. No one can resist that smile.
"Riiiiight." Elsa agreed. "Anyways, may I help you, Xavier?"
The question was so formal, no one could tell she actually had any interest in him. It was the eyes that said it all. Hers was gleaming, hopeful. He smiled. "Well, I came here to visit you."
The queen blushed, and some color appeared in her cheeks.
"I'll leave you two alone." Anna said, and quietly exited the room, looking back only to give her sister a big grin.
"Are you free at eight tonight?" He asked.
That question caught Elsa off guard. Is he asking me out? "Yes." Came the not so exiting reply.
He smiled at her, and said "Meet me at the beach. Don't bother about what you're wearing. You're beautiful enough."
