Eh screw it, I'm already behind. Anyways, I have a 3-day event coming up this weekend and I am so excited! Unfortunately that means I will be in a place for four days with no wifi. Sorry but I will probably not be able to update until next Tuesday for this story. Please forgive me and note that I did not die I'm just having an awesome time somewhere.

Over the course of the next week, Kate and Jack actually became friends, of some sort. Kate now avoided Jasmine of all costs and had something more to talk about than homework with Hiccup.

Hiccup had it in his mind that Kate liked Jack. Well, she did, but, in another lifetime. Now, she liked talking to him. It was a reminder of old times. She still remembered to hide her real self, but she was glad that her Jack was still in there somewhere.

Because Of You was coming along nicely. Kate still felt choked up at the end of the song by how accurate it was, but she liked singing with Jack.

Was it going against what she had worked for? Kate didn't even know, but she wanted to be there for Jack. He was her best friend, even though she was having major controversial arguments in her head about it.

"Hey Kate!" A certain white-haired boy called out from across the library somewhere, despite it being, well, a library.

Kate looked up from the book she was reading, glancing around. Sure enough, Jack was making his way across the room, ignoring the evil eye the librarian was giving him.

Kate removed her ear buds, pausing her iPod.

"Uh, what are you doing?" Kate asked.

"Why don't you ever ask 'what are you doing here?' like a normal person?" Jack smiled, sitting down.

Kate rolled her eyes, wincing inwardly at her lack of self composure. She still was far from ready to let it go.

"Well, obviously, you're here for a reason, probably to bug me," she added under breath.

"What was that?"

"Nothing!" She said quickly, with a hint of sarcasm that Jack failed to notice. "But, what I want to know is what you are doing, so that is what I ask."

"Why are you so formal?" Jack laughed. Kate narrowed her eyes at him.

"Hey, we should go see a movie or something when school's done! I haven't been able to go wandering around Corona since last week! Plus, you need a break. I don't think I've ever seen you out of your uniform," Jack said.

Was...was he asking her on a date?

No. He was dating Jasmine, right? Plus, Kate knew Jack way too well (well, Overland, not Frost, but still) to know that he wasn't himself around his "friends." When he laughed at something, his eyes were drained. His smile didn't quite reach his eyes and his face was always tight, like he was straining to keep a smile.

But how could he be so upset? He was so popular, outgoing, and friendly. How could someone not like him? Well, Kate didn't exactly like the person he was now, but she did find aspects of this Jack that she liked.

Realizing that she hadn't answered him yet, she sat up in her chair. "Uh, I don't know..."

"Come on, it'll be fun!" He pleaded.

When he said that, Kate could have fainted.

She gulped once. Twice.

Just breathe, Kate, she told herself. Conceal it, don't feel it, don't let it show.

But despite her efforts, the flashback came anyways.

"No Anna, it's a rainy day, something that doesn't happen very often here, let's just enjoy it and watch a movie or something."

"But why? Please! Mom and dad need to get out, they've been pushing you way too hard, I can see it!" Anna replied, shaking her head up and down in a way that made her two braids bob up and down.

Elsa almost laughed. "Anna, you are way too spoiled. Mom! Dad! Let's go for a drive!"

The sound of their mother's sigh could be heard from downstairs. "Elsa," her mother called, "when you start driving you are going to be taking Anna for drives, not us."

Anna jumped excitedly. "Elsa loves car rides through the country! She needs it because you have been stressing her out too much and she's no fun!"

"Anna!" Elsa scolded, but her expression was amused.

"Come on, it'll be fun!" The eleven year old dragged her older sister's arm out the door, waiting eagerly for their parents.

Kate took another deep breath.

"Okay," she agreed shakily. If Jack noticed her sudden shift in attitude, he didn't comment on it.

"Yes!" He cheered. "Let's go!"

"Uh, Jack?" Kate said, stopping hm.

"What?"

"You do realize that we still have the whole school day to get through?"

"Oh." His face fell. "Any chance I can get you to skip?"

Kate did laugh this time, but immediately slapped her hand over her mouth when Ms. Belle shushed her.

As they walked out together, Kate whispered to him, "Not a chance, Frost."

~the rest of the day goes by~

"Are you sure Hiccup?" Kate asked.

Hiccup sighed. "Yeah, I've got a big essay due on computers in three days and he just gave us the assignment today."

"Oh. Sorry. Next time though?" Kate said hopefully.

He nodded. "Yay. Now I get to spend the rest of the day with Jack Frost."

"It can't be that bad," he teased, shoving her shoulder lightly.

"Shut up, Haddock." She glared. She did not ave a crush on Jack.

Especially when she knew...

She shook her head, emptying the offending thoughts.

She could go with Jack and not have to worry about the past she had left in the past. It could give her more practice and experience with situations like these.

She ran back to her dorm room to change. She threw on a simple soft teal long-sleeved shirt that faded to a darker blue at the bottom, slipping into some dark jeggings and adding her light blue leather jacket. To finish, she thought, why not, and slid her feet into the white heels.

Jack came to her dorm soon after.

He looked really relaxed in a faded dark blue hoodie with what looked like frost designs around the neck and shoulders and dark brown skinny jeans. He was wearing some Vans that looked completely worn out. His white hair was as windswept as ever and his eyes a startling blue. That was one thing she should have recognized. Even though her Jack had had brown hair, she remembered his crystal blue eyes.

"Hey, whoa. You look, how do I put this...normal?" He said, smirking.

If only she could wipe that smirk off his face.

"Um, thanks, I try." She responded coldly, brushing past him into the hallway.

"Relax, Kate. Hey, did you see the news board?" He asked happily.

"Um, no, I don't really..." She didn't really bother to look at the news board, it was all stuff she didn't care about.

"Well, BPAA has decided to allow certain pets here!" Jack announced happily.

Kate snorted. "You want to get a pet?"

He looked offended. "Why not?"

Kate swallowed her laughter. "Oh, no reason."

"What kind of pet would you get?" He asked, crossing his arms.

Kate thought for a moment. "Well, I used to have a dog named..." she caught herself just in time. "But, uh, dogs are kind of time consuming, with all my homework, you know. Probably a cat," she shrugged.

Kate was grateful for Jack's obliviousness, for he did not notice or care about her stutter.

"That's cool. I actually don't know what I'd want. We'll have to go pet shopping sometime this week," he winked.

Kate just smiled and shook her head slightly.

"Do we have to see a movie?" Kate said.

"I guess not. What do you want to do?" He said.

Kate thought. She hadn't really been interested in a watching a movie anyways. But what else to do?

She smiled. "We could go to the park, I think they have a coffee shop there, too."

Jack smiled. "Corona is so different than Arendelle."

Kate choked. "Sorry, what was that?"

"Oh, Arendelle, it's the part of Burgess where I came from. It's a lot smaller."

Kate sighed deeply. She had to stop freaking out about these things. She pushed away the thought that this was why she hadn't wanted to get close to Jack.

"But, uh, yeah. The park sounds good." She smiled.

"Of course, to the park we go!" He said in a very deep and formal tone. Kate laughed, following after him.

The park was pretty deserted, but it did have a coffee shop.

"Do you want to wait here?" Jack asked as Kate nestled into a park bench.

"Oh, uh, sure. I'll just have a caramel frappe." She asked, digging in her shoulder bag for her wallet. But before she could give the money to him, Jack had dashd off.

Jack wasn't going to let Kate pay for the drinks. He had to admit, being here with jer was actually fun. It was like he could be himself. He didn't know why there was just something about Kate that made him feel better, easier, but there just was.

He ordered the drinks, waiting for the man to make them on the sidelines.

The bell clanged as a customer walked in.

"Hey Kristoff!" A very cheery voice greeted. Jack heard the rustling of a coat as the girl hung up her coat.

The guy- Kristoff, apparently, blushed slightly.

"Oh, hey Anna!" He said shyly.

Jack froze.

Anna?

He slowly turned around.

It was Anna. She looked so much older, but her bubbly personality still remained, and her strawberry blonde hair was braided in the usual pigtail braids. Her smile was still the same.

"A-Anna?" He couldn't help himself.

Anna stopped. "Uh, do I know you?"

"Oh my God, it's been forever, it's me, Jack, Jack-"

"Jack?" Anna cried delighted before he could finish. He nodded once.

"Jack!" She cried again, running to envelop him in a hug. "I can't believe it's you! It's been so long, I-oh!"

Anna winced, sitting down with the pained expression on her face, her hand clutching her head.

"Oh no, not again," Kristoff said concerned, coming out from behind the counter.

"No, no, it's fine," Anna protested.

"What's going on?" Jack asked.

"Oh, well, Kristoff's grandfather is one of my doctors, so he's at the hospital a lot." She explained.

"Hospital, what? Is Elsa okay?" Jack said, failing in hiding his concern.

Anna stared at him. "Oh Jack," she sighed.

"What? What happened?" Jack pleaded desperately.

Anna pulled some of her hair back, revealing a nasty scar. "Three years ago, there was a crash. Mom and dad were killed, and so was..."

Tears pricked the edges of Jack's eyes.

What was she about to say? She couldn't mean...

"But, when did this...are...I'm sorry, are you okay?" Jack said still in shock.

Anna bit her lip, her own eyes watering. "Y-yeah, I'm managing. It's hard, being an orphan under constant supervision at the hospital. The funny thing is that I don't remember anything about an hour or two before the accident. I remember how I wanted Elsa to let go a little, and just not stress out from all the pressure mom and dad gave her, but that's it. At least I don't remember when she..."

Anna broke off, holding back sobs.

"Shh, it's okay," Kristoff crooned, wrapping her in a hug that Anna gratefully melted into.

"I-I'm sorry, i-it's just...just that..." She didn't finish.

"So. Elsa's really gone." Jack said faintly.

"Oh Jack. I am so sorry. I know how close you were. I would have thought that you knew."

Jack just shook his head somberly. Well, he could forget ever hoping to see his Elsa ever again. God, how he missed her that much more.

He wiped away the tears, looking down. He was thankful that there was no one else in the coffee shop.

The bell rang again.

"Hey Jack, are you-oh," Kate cut off, seeing Anna in the arms of Kristoff. Her eyes were wide, like she'd just seen a ghost.

"Oh, Kate, this is Anna, she's an old friend, you know, from Arendelle." Jack said.

Anna got up, sniffing. "I'm so sorry, um, I'm Anna. Are you Jack's girlfriend?"

Oh Anna. Still so happy even when tears were evident on her face.

"Wait, what? Oh, no, no, we're just friends!" Kate said quickly, blushing.

"Oh, well, nice to meet you," she said brightly, offering her hand.

Kate took it gingerly as Anna looked her straight in the eye.

And she didn't recognize her.

Kate's blue eyes were hidden behind the brown, her platinum blonde hair by the dye, but it still hurt that she didn't see her. But what would she do if she did recognize her? Run away like her life depended on it? Oh well, she wouldn't recognize her anyways.

"Wait a minute, don't I know you?"

And she spoke too soon.

"Um, no, I-I don't think so," Kate mumbled, eyes darting side to side.

"Hmm, I'm almost sure I've met you before." Anna tapped her chin, wondering.

"N-no, I don't think you-"

"I know you!" Anna shouted.

"Y-you do?" Kate whispered, cringing.

"Yeah, you nearly ran in to me with your car a month ago!" She said that like it was an everyday chance meeting.

"Oh, right! I am so sorry about that!" Kate said, too relieved to come up with something better to say.

"Nah, it's cool. I'm alive, aren't I?" She laughed mysteriously, going to talk to Kristoff.

Kate furrowed her brow. She knew she shouldn't have come.

For as worried as she was, Jack must have been ten times. He looked flushed and pale, his eyes swimming his emotion, something Kate never saw.

"Jack, are you alright?" Kate asked quietly.

Jack suddenly was back to normal. "Oh yeah, I was just thinking about this friend I used to have. She was a neighbor. She was from Arendelle as well, barely remember her name now, you know how it goes."

Kate winced. She knew he was referring to her. She had also seen Anna show Jack her scar from outside the coffee shop. He must be pretty horrified to see that. But when he said that about her, he must be true. Why would Jack miss her? She was nobody. He didn't even bother to remember her name.

"Oh. Was she important?" Kate couldn't help but ask.

"Oh no, not really. Just kid memories."

Ouch. That hurt.

She nodded.

Kate glanced over at Anna. She was laughing at something that Kristoff had said.

She looked happy. And why wouldn't she be? She should be. She should be living her life out not having to worry about a stupid scar that had caused her so much head trauma.

Kristoff brought Jack's order out. "Here you go," he said cheerily.

"Thank you," Kate said politely.

"Thanks," Jack said, sucking up the coffee drink greedily.

Kate didn't want to be here with Anna. It was just too hard.

"Can we go?" Kate asked, hoping she didn't sound too rude or snobby.

"Yeah," Jack agreed slightly dazed.

"I'll wait outside, you say goodbye," Kate told him.

He nodded.

"Hey Anna, when did the crash happen?"

"Um, their passing was dated on March 10th," she said.

"Wait...what?" Somebody please tell him that she was pulling his leg.

"Yeah, it's coming up in a few months," Anna sighed somberly.

The 10th of March. The 14th of March. He never forgot the day, or the date. Then, the two weeks later. No. It couldn't be...could it? Did he dare even hope?

"A-Anna," Jack stammered, "I don't know how to tell you this, but I think Elsa's alive."

O. M. G. What? Haha, sorry to leave you hanging until Tuesday, but I am going to be having fun. Review time!

Artianrose98: haha, good question. We shall see... anyways, thanks!

nyce4me: again, good question. But Kate/Elsa knows, so she gets a little credit. No? Okay.

Snowman(guest): again, brace yourself. Why would you do this to me? Are you gunna get a Fanfic anytime soon so I can PM you instead of annoying the rest of the readers with a nessecary long answer? I still love getting reviews, don't get me wrong, but you are being cruel! So, first of all, ha, and you say you're not a writer! You leave a very detailed explanation to my question and then you say "oh I'm not a writer," confuzzling much? ;P Haha, but I was literally laughing for like, five minutes just on how long that was. I didn't even think that length-y of a review was allowed! But thank you for the info, that's actually very helpful and gave me some ideas.

Oh okay, I guess that makes sense. Do your friends live in Florida as well cuz that made it sound like you just met them on fanfic, like my friend StinnettHe (wave hello, StinnettHe). But anyways, uh, good to know...? Now I have to put that in my story! Kate/Elsa is totally going to be frustrating Jack with the comment "none of your business!" sometime or another;)

And, uh, actually, I've stayed up the whole night reading Fanfiction before...yeah, I know...lol, I literally couldn't see across my room and my room is very small.

Oh I'm sorry. And Alaska isn't that bad, I've been there before. In the summer time it is possible to wear shorts, believe it or not. And yes, I believe everything you said. Good to freaking know there buddy ;P and oh, I just now notice you guys got a little theme going on there so I retract my previous question of if you guys are friends in the real world, I think I answered it myself...

And Jasmine does see Kate/Elsa as a threat, but not in the love aspect. She's basically paranoid with everything to do with Jack and wants him all for herself (why I have no idea, it's a story, just go with it). Anyone who Jack pays attention to would be considered a threat so I hope that explains it. Sorta-kinda-maybe.

And finally, oh please, I wish that's the most embarrassing thing myfriends have ever done. I think the top one would be our inside joke quote of, "Always talk to strangers. You get cupcakes." So my friend asks this dude unloading those packaged mini cake thingies at a Safeway and she yells "I'll buy one from you!" Completely randomly when we were sitting there in a group probably looking like we were about to rob him or something. But later, he literally gave her a free box of them, and we were likem "sweet! Free food!" But still, that was horrifying. Of course, later, she went up to say hi to this dude who no joke looked like a murderer. Another weird thing is her chasing me around the band room trying to bite me while screaming "I AM A ZOMBIE!" Ha, I have weird friends...

Michelle-Lee: oh good for you. I hope you continue to keep reading my fanfic! It'll get more interesting soon, I promise.

Okay, sorry, I just answered the actual important (or really extremely long ones *cough cough* Snowman *cough* jk, love you! ;P) reviews this time since I am getting more. I hope you guys decide to take the survey, but, no hard feelings if you don't! Apologies, I didn't bother to reread and edit so the spelling may or may not suck in this chapter.

Wish me luck on my 3-day and see you on TSOKH next Tuesday!
