"Let's take a break." Andrea complained the next day in their meetings. "Come on, whatever we do Henry is just going to come back and change it all anyways, so why work?"
"He is quite…" Elsa began but held her tongue when she realized she was talking to the man's fiancée.
"What? Handsome, Charming, Irresistible?" Andrea laughed which each word. "No, I think the word you were looking for is controlling."
"Yes controlling described him well." Elsa smiled feeling brave. "Why are you marrying him?"
"Oh not this again, drop it Elsa." Andrea stood and walked to the window, looking out at the bright summer's day.
"You are a smart, kind and beautiful princess. You could have your pick of princes, so why him?" Elsa admitted as she stood to face the girl.
"Beautiful…?" Andrea stuttered.
"Well um, yes I mean you are an attractive…" Elsa stopped talking before she could embarrass herself or the Princess any further.
"What if I don't want my pick of Princes? What if I want…" Andrea whipped around to face her while she spoke, before turning very red and taking a step back.
"What if you want…what?" Elsa mumbled as she took a step forwards, sensing where the woman was going with this. Andrea dark eyes looked up to meet her gaze, biting her lower lip. Before Elsa knew enough to stop the girl, Andrea's lips were on hers, kissing her hungrily. Warm hands on her hips tugged her closer to the princess as she returned the kiss with a sigh. Their lips clashed together feverishly as Elsa wrapped her arms around Andrea's neck. Her back hit the wall before she knew she was being pushed backwards, the princess lips never leaving hers. Elsa flicked her tongue across the girl's lips, asking for permission which was quickly granted. The kiss deepened as their tongues danced into each other's mouths. As Andrea pulled out of the kiss Elsa bite her lip. Andrea smiled as she rested her forehead against the queens. Squeezing Elsa's hips Andrea spoke.
"Thank god you kissed back." She muttered. Elsa moaned at the words before leaning forward to capture the girl's lips again. "Eager huh?"
"You have no idea how much I have been thinking about this since the ball." Elsa moaned against the princesses lips. As Andrea slid her hands around to hold the girl closer the warm lips left hers to attack her neck. Elsa moved her head to the side to give the girl more access to the skin as her eyes rolled back in her head, a small moan escaping her lips as the hot lips attached themselves to her pulse point and sucked hard. The brunette trailed kisses down her throat and back around to her ear. Elsa moaned as Andrea kissed her lips again, this time more passionately and filled with emotion. This kiss felt as if the girl was putting all her worries and fears into it, allowing the kiss to heal her emotional wounds. Elsa pulled away, staring into the chocolate brown eyes in front of her.
"Henry…"She whispered it as a statement more than a question, just a voiced worry.
"I don't know…I can't even think around you. Logical decision making is impossible in your company let alone in your arms." Elsa blushed at this statement and her gaze fell to the wall behind Andrea. "Don't do that, don't look away. I see the real you, the one you try so hard to keep hidden. The person who's scared of hurting people and is so fragile…and that's the person Im falling for Elsa. So don't look away, please." Elsa's gaze once again fell to meet Andreas and they both smiled.
"Never…" Elsa whispered.
Prince Henry returned from his trip that night tired and happy to be home. He walked in the library to find the three girls sitting around the fire chatting.
"Darling! Hope you didn't miss me too much." Henry exclaimed as Andrea stood to greet him.
"Not at all my love." Elsa smirked at her poorly hidden jab at the prince. He leaned in for a kiss which Andrea gave him rather hesitantly. He smiled before trying to kiss her properly but the girl leaned away. "Darling, remember your manners. You are not around the men anymore, please conduct yourself accordingly."
"My apologise ladies." He said to the sisters who sat on the couches. "Avert your eyes because I have missed my fiancée." He pulled Andrea into a kiss that made flames of jealousy leap up inside Elsa. Anna gigged at the situation and made a face at Elsa.
"Ah hem." Elsa cleared her throat after a moment of being forced to watch her girl kiss another. Andrea gave her a sad smile when she sat back down next to her, quickly brushing her fingers over the queen's hand. Elsa could feel the unspoken message in that touch. The friends talked about Henrys trip and their lives until there eyelids started to droop. The royal excused themselves to bed when they lost the battle with sleep, leaving the young couple alone in the library.
"So, how were the meetings about trade while I was gone?" Henry asked with a small smile once they were alone.
"She is definitely warming up to the idea of using the northern route, and she agreed to the terms you left." Andrea confirmed.
"Is there a reason she is being so pliable?" Henry asked with a wink.
"There might have been some…extra convincing involved." Andrea smiled.
"That's my girl."
