The sun peeked through a small gap in the curtains making Anna growl in irritation and huddle under the blanket. She was slowly falling back to sleep when she felt the blanket being yanked off her body and the sunshine piercing into her eyes. Hissing in defiance she tried to yank the blanket back but whoever had hold of the other was undeniably stronger than her. "Rise and shine Anna. Do you not have school today?" A male voice asked from somewhere above her. "Dad…" Anna groaned. "I don't feel so good today either, I'm going to stay home." Cracking an eye open she looked up at the man she called father. Warm green eyes stared back at her and nodded in understanding. "Alright Anna, feel better soon then." And with a kiss on her forehead he left her room.
Feeling slightly guilty for making her father worry, Anna stared out the small gap in the curtains until she felt her bed dip from some extra weight. Turning to side she saw that Elsa had come to lie down beside her. "Who stole your bowl of sunshine this morning, thundercloud?" Anna scoffed at the question and turned to face the wall. "There's an obvious answer to that question." Elsa only chuckled in response and jumped off the bed, making the mattress wobble a bit. Walking over to Anna's closet, she began rummaging around for something presentable for Anna to wear.
"I can do that myself you know." Came a rebellious grumbling from the direction of the bed. Elsa smiled over her shoulder and decided that the other girl would look good in a forest green t-shirt and khaki shorts. Walking back over to Anna she handed her the clothes. "I know, but I like to take care of you." That comment caused Anna to blush and she quickly snatched the clothes from Elsa's outstretched hand. "Don't say such embarrassing stuff." She mumbled as she walked past Elsa and into the bathroom down the hall. Finishing her business in the bathroom, Anna trudged down into the kitchen to make breakfast only to find Elsa already making it. Looking at the taller girl, Anna noted that she was wearing jeans paired with a dark blue knit sweater that was a bit too big for her and blanched. "How can you wear something like that in this weather?" She stared at Elsa in amazement as she took a seat at the table.
"It is not like I can change what I'm wearing, it just stayed." Elsa muttered quietly, her back turned to Anna. Anna winced at the response and fiddled with the ends of her braids. "Don't dwell on it Anna. It is all in the past now." Elsa smiled reassuringly and handed Anna her breakfast. "And that is where our problems lies." Anna mumbled and nibbled at her breakfast before wolfing down. "Uh mah guhd Elpha fis is thso gud." She managed to spit out between mouthfuls of food. Elsa laughed and dodged spittle of food before shaking her head at Anna. "Continue and you will choke." Anna sent her a glare and continued to demolish the food on her plate. Elsa just looked on in adoration, happy that Anna was enjoying her cooking so much.
Finishing off the last bacon on her plate, Anna petted her stomach in contentment with a slight lethargic look on her face. "That was the best breakfast I have ever had in a long time, now. What shall we do today?" Threading her fingers together she rested them behind her head and looked at Elsa expectantly. I might as well learn to enjoy myself with her rather than fight it everyday. Elsa raised an eyebrow in return. "You said we could go see how the other guys a doing." Anna had completely forgotten about their agreement and groaned. Elsa nudged her lightly. "Come now Anna, you gave me the pose remember? There is no going back now." She grinned widely at Anna's predicament and got up to make her way to the front door. Standing up with such haste that her chair fell over, Anna scampered after Elsa, calling out after her. "Elsa! Don't open the front door. I'm coming now." Cursing under her breath for making The Anna pose, she shoved her feet into some white tennis shoes and opened the door for a patiently waiting Elsa.
"Milady." Anna bowed as Elsa walked past her and onto the street. Elsa rolled her eyes in response but couldn't help a shy smile form on her face. Looking around with an almost child like wonder, Elsa turned in a small circle to take in the summer surroundings. Humming in delight she kneeled down to pick up a dandelion and blew gently at the fuzz. Anna watched with a goofy grin on her face as she stared at Elsa enjoying summer, usually Elsa was more of a winter girl but summer seems brings out the beauty in everyone and everything. Wiping her hands on her jeans, Elsa stood back up and extended her hand to Anna. "Shall we?"
Anna's grin widened until Elsa was afraid it was going to split her face in two and nodded vigorously as she took Elsa's cooler hand in hers. "We shall." And with that Anna marched them towards the main road. "Thing's have changed a little bit since, well… You'll see for yourself I suppose." Anna mused and intertwined their fingers together like they used to do when they were little. Elsa smiled at the gesture and gave Anna's hand a small squeeze. "I'm sure things will be fine. I'm actually quite excited to see how much things have changed." A contemplative look crossed Elsa's face. "Oh look, a new coffee place has opened up there. And that supermarket wasn't there before." Elsa pointed at the two new features the town got within the last ten years. Anna nodded beside Elsa, just enjoying her company without thinking too much about it. Why couldn't things have turned out differently? She sighed to herself and decided not to think too much about what has happened and try to enjoy the newfound time she has with Elsa.
Seeing the taller girl beside her now, it filled a hole in Anna's heart that had gnawed away at her heart and soul. Revelling in presence of Elsa, Anna didn't notice the tall boy that was standing in front of her. Bumping unceremoniously into the boy, Anna stumbled back but was quickly caught by Elsa. "Watch where you- Anna?" The boy's facial expression changed from rage into confusion into disbelief in the span of a second. Anna who was rubbing her face froze, eyes wide and stared up into the familiar yet unfamiliar eyes of the person she once called her friend. "Hans."
