For a moment, you stand in shock, you were sure somebody called out to you. Looking around, you don't see anybody; you're probably just imagining things.
You glance over to Astrid. She marches along, unbothered as always. She doesn't look like she heard anything. You put the thought to rest.
''So what time is the ceremony starting tomorrow?'' You ask her, taking your mind off things. She shrugs.
''I don't know, I'll check the invitation, but first I want to get to our room. I deserve rest after suffering through your music for six hours''
You huff and pretend to look hurt. ''For your information, my Taylor swift music can kick your rock music's ass.''
She gives you a friendly punch to the shoulder. Unfortunately, in Astrid's world friendly punch equals almost dislocating your shoulder.
''Ow'' you rub your shoulder whilst glaring at her.
''Just keep walking you big baby''
''big baby?'' you question.
''I'll have you know that I'm a full grown adult.'' Astrid just rolls her eyes and paces ahead of you.
When you enter the hotel lobby, your eyes scan around for Astrid. You spot her by the elevator, motioning you over.
''Did you check us in already?''
''Yup''
She presses the button to your floor, the 21st, and the elevator starts its climb.
Although, climb is a bit of an overstatement. The doors have barely closed before they open again on the second floor. And on the third floor and every floor thereafter.
When the elevator hits the 11th floor, you overhear people talking.
''I told you this was the wrong floor''. A girly voice.
''Well excuse me for wanting to get out of the elevator from hell''. A deeper voice argues.
''Elevator from hell?'' the girly voice giggles.
''Yes and besides, I was only off by one digit'' The deeper voice answers in a light chuckle. You recognize that voice from somewhere, but you can't quite put your finger on it.
''C'mon Em, the elevator is here already''
The elevator doors shut slowly and you can hear the hurried footsteps coming closer.
''Hurry up Jack!''
Shit.
As soon as you recognize the voice a large hand shoots between the doors. Stopping them from closing.
The hand nearly hits you in the face and you flinch. Astrid gives you a sideway glance before mouthing the words big baby. You roll your eyes.
You look back at the beanpole shoving his bag through the door with little caution. Behind him you spot a small girl, which you also recognize.
The beanpole is no other than Jack Frost, personal arsonist and dancing drama queen.
You are not a fan of this guy. His little sister, Emma on the other hand is a sweetheart. You wonder how those two are even related.
When Jack sees you his smirk melts away and he clears his throat. ''Oh, um hello Hiccup''
It seems like the feelings of distrust and despise are mutual.
Whereas Jack seems unhappy with the unexpected meeting, Emma is delighted. She doesn't hesitate to tackle both you and Astrid in a hug.
You mutter a ''hey'' and glare at snow white in front of you. Who has now involuntarily shoved himself against you due to limited space in the elevator.
The last 10 floors feel an awful lot like hell.
It doesn't help that Frost is grinding his ass against you. You swear to the gods that if this elevator doesn't get to your floor fast, you will take him on in a fight.
Luckily for you, the elevator stops and Jack and Emma get out. So does Astrid to your surprise.
''Is this the 21st?'' you ask her with a dumbstruck look on your face.
''The one and only'' She answers, without looking back.
Astrid unlocks room 213 and Jack does the same with the room right next to yours.
''Great'' you mutter and step out of the elevator.
You step into the room and throw your bag on the bed.
''This side is mine'' you yell at Astrid who is inspecting the bathroom.
''Fine by me!'' she yells back.
You unpack some of your stuff and Astrid flops on the side next to you.
''So what's the deal with you and Frost, you seemed a bit icy''
''Oh haha, hilarious''
''No but seriously, are you still mad about the whole candle thing?''
''He almost set fire to my house!''
''But he didn't''
''But he almost did''
''Boohoo, get over it''
''Wow thanks''
''Why are you acting all stuck up anyway, I know you like him''
''I do not!''
''Of course you don't. Anyway, I'm taking a shower, go keep yourself busy or something''
''Mmkay''
Astrid shoves herself off the bed and walks into the bathroom. You pull your phone out of your bag and scroll through your newsfeed.
Your phone vibrates and you get an incoming call from Rapunzel.
Accepting the call, you hold the phone to your ear, only to immediately hold it away. Rapunzel is screaming through the phone.
''Hiiiiiiii Hiccy''
''Hey Punz'' you answer.
''Howsyoudoing?'' she slurs the words together.
''Are you drunk?'' you ask her. Through the phone you hear music and the sounds of what you think is a casino.
''a lil bit''
''It's like 6 pm!'' You sigh, rubbing your temples. It's still way too early to be dealing with Punz when she's drunk.
''Yes, but you should drink to, 's my wedding tomorrow. Get loose''
''You know I don't drink''
''One drink Hicc, doesn't even have to have alcohol''
''One, on the condition that you don't have another one''
''Awwww but Hicc!''
''No ifs and no buts''
''Fine''
You hang up and grab a coat from your bag.
You knock on the bathroom door. ''Astrid, I'm going to pick up Rapunzel, she's drunk!''
''Okay, have fun!'' she answers back.
You step out of the door and close it behind you.
In the hallway you make eye contact with Jack, who is waiting for the elevator.
You exchange a ''hey'' and decide to take the stairs; you are not ready to go through that again.
So first things first, sorry I haven't updated in a while. I actually have no excuse I just forgot all about this story for a while.
But hey im back again, I got a notification of a review and I was like shit.
So I typed up this masterpiece since I dont have anything else to do anyway.
I havent seen Tangled in a while so Punz is probs hella OOC, but hey she's drunk. Nobody really is the same when they're drunk, right?
Anyway enjoy!
