Elsa's POV
Things have changed so quickly. Since Eric popped the question to me and I replied positively, royal staff of both kingdoms, have been working on the wedding preparations with great passion and loyalty. Anna and Kristoff announced to the public that they expect their first child and the citizens of Arendelle can't wait for both big events: My marriage and Anna's first child. Our wedding preparations have almost finished and the wedding will take place the upcoming Friday which happens to be Anna's birthday. I still can believe it. 20 years ago, the 21 of June Anna, my little red-haired sister was born and above all this, this year we will celebrate her special day alongside with my marriage. I can't remember when was, the last time, I was able to feel this way. However, I can't find myself completely relaxed. My mind is spinning round about two extremely severe things. The first and most necessary is my pregnancy and if and how am I going to announce it to my people. Is still a problem to me and the fact that we haven't found some time to talk it further with Eric, makes me pensive. We were always saying that it was not a problem and that we would make it through under any circumstances. But here we were. Maybe I was overreacting or exaggerating or i don't know what else! But this feeling had found a place deep in my heart, making me suffocating and drowning into nothing. My belly is beginning to show up. So far I have been hiding it with my cape or my hands, just in case anyone noticed a thing. But now summer is on the way and my summer clothing can't cover this particular place of my body. There are times in my life that panic can consume me. When frost and ice cover my hands and the room I am standing in. This was one of those moments.
Eric twisted the doorknob and entered in their room. Elsa was standing in the middle of the room, half-breathing with her hands into fists and her eyes intensely closed. "She is trying to calm down", he mulled over and approached slowly behind her. She reached just behind her back and embraced his hands around her waist softly and calmly. Elsa breathed with relief and let herself relax. Eric kissed her slowly and smoothly on her neck. Elsa leaned her head back and looked him with joy. Her hands reached his cheek and caressed it for a moment.
-"What's wrong this time?", Eric questioned his future wife as he sat on their bed. Elsa started walking nervously in front of him trying to gather her thoughts in a specific order. Eric giggled and stared her smiling. Elsa stopped walking and turned to meet his gaze.
-"Well there are some things we haven't talked about yet", Elsa finally replied and crossed her arms. Eric stared her for a while before he responses. Her stubborn eyes had overwhelmed her face and her pregnancy suited her perfectly.
-"I'm listening", he replied and stood up to approach her. Elsa turned to face him serious enough with her back straighten and her head held up high.
-"To begin with…", she said and stared him terrified. Eric detected her frighten look and embraced her to his arms. "Honey you scary me, what is going on?, Eric interrupted her and caressed her long shining hair. Elsa started trembling and without being unable to control it. "Eric what are we going to do with the baby?", she asked and stared him with her eyes full of fear. Eric tried to search in her look any sign of courage but it was hopeless. He had considered that this conversation would come one day and he would have to face all that he feared the most.
-"Are u going to tell him, don't u?", Eric asked her full of sorrow and stared their hands which where united.
-"To tell who?", Elsa questioned back full of curiosity. Her eyes were wet from the intensity of the moment and her desire to do a cold bath. The weather was getting hot.
-"Thorian", Eric replied and glanced at her meaningfully. Elsa's eyes goggled and her breathing slowed down. She felt nice seeing how much sensitive her husband was. His caring aquamarine eyes were gazing at her own, and his smooth hands touched her cheeks with love.
-"How could I? Eric that's something I won't do until the child (points out the belly) is ready to face the truth. Something I am not sure anyone can handle.", Elsa replied and looked up to her husband.
-"Ok then what's the matter?", Eric questioned now that his main fear had wiped out. Elsa was trying to remain patient. "Why can't he understand such a simple thing?", she mulled over and continued.
-"How am I going to say to my people that their Queen is expecting an heir?", Elsa raised her tone of voice and glared him.
-"I don't see the problem", Eric replied and glanced Elsa with a small smile drawn on his lips. Elsa stared him confused and sat on her bed. Her gentle hand stroke her pointing little belly under her light blue dress.
-"What do u mean by that?", Elsa questioned him and stood up to open the balcony doors. The weather was making her feeling uncomfortable. Outside the sky was shining blue mixed with a few orange sunbeams and the afternoon would soon give its place to sunset.
-"We can go out right now and announce to our people that you are pregnant to our child.", Eric replied that simple. His eyes were shining under the sunlight as he was approaching the balcony door where Elsa stood speechless. Certainly this was something Elsa hadn't considered about. She turned and placed her arms around Eric's neck. You would think he was less than 25 years old but he was almost dark blonde hair were soft and his big aquamarine eyes were gazing at her face. Elsa without even thinking about it pressed her lips on Eric's ones. Eric couldn't resist neither he wanted to. He truly loved her and he would never imagine his life without her. Elsa as time was passing them by was feeling that her love was growing for this man. He was caring, loving and most important of all he was true.
Eric stepped back and breathed. A small smile appeared in Elsa's face. A small kick, startled Elsa who jumped of her place. Eric stared her bemused and touched her belly. He could sense a movement happening in there. It wasn't clear enough, yet Elsa was 5 months pregnant and the baby was on the half of its way. Elsa giggled and stared both her baby and Eric. She thought she could never live such a moment and many times she had thought she wasn't made for motherhood. Yet here she was. Eric kissed her on the forehead and ran towards the door.
-"Where u going?", Elsa asked him startled and approached her wardrobe in order to get prepared for the dinner.
-"I have to check some stuff.. I will be back for the dinner, don't worry", Eric applied and closed the door behind him.
Elsa opened the wardrobe and tried to search for the most suitable dress. The majority of her dresses were ordered to be blue or light blue and she had only a few long dresses coloured hazel or aquamarine. Suddenly her vision caught a small packet under a pair of shoes. She leaned down and grabbed it. It was middle-seized and sort of lightweight. "Well, this is interesting indeed", she considered and sat on her bed. The packet was easy to be unwrapped and its inner was far more interesting. Elsa's eyes goggled and both her hands touched the fabric of the cloth. She putted the packet next to her and stood up to admire this unbelievable work of masterpiece. The strapless dress was long and float, which made things better, particularly for the pregnancy. There were tiny diamonds spread on the top of the dress which were shining, contrast to the dark red color of it which was fading slowly until the end of it, giving the dress a light almost pink sensation. Elsa remained speechless. Well, red wasn't her best color, although this time she pretty much loved it. Without a second thought she put it on.
Meanwhile Anna and Kristoff were seating on the dining hall waiting for them to come.
-"I think tomorrow I am going to shop around in the town.", Anna said and touched Kristoff's hand. Kristoff , glanced her for a while and smiled.
-"Fine by me", he replied and continued. "Would u like me to join u?"
Anna stared him surprised and giggled. Her gaze was saying that her plans were different.
-"I'm thinking of taking Elsa with me. She needs a break from her routine. Moreover buying some baby clothing will make her feel good.", Anna added and caressed awkwardly her hair. Kristoff nodded positively and helped himself with some salad. Just in time, Eric appeared from the corner of corridor holding a bucket of blue roses.
-"Where did you find those?",Kristoff asked with his mouth stuffed with salad.
-"Oh please! Swallow your food!", Eric said pretending the annoyed one, while smiling to Anna who was staring at him.
Kristoff swallowed and laughed to Eric. Anna was looking them bemused. Since Eric decided that he and Elsa would remain in this kingdom instead of going back to Faroe Islands to reign, Kristoff and he had become really good friends. It was the first time in forever that Kristoff had started to come this close and trust a person of his own sex and that was a thing Anna could not left unseen. She felt being overwhelmed by happiness and stared into Kristoff's big light brown eyes. That moment steps were heard by the corner of the corridor. Anna and the two men could see servants bowing to someone but they were unable to see who it was. And then Elsa appeared, dressed for the first time in forever in a dark red dress which color was fading away to end up with a pink hue. Her wavy hair was left free to fall down her waist and her golden crown was putted carefully on the top of her head. Kristoff and Anna were looking amazed Elsa coming in the dining hall, yet Eric was waiting up of his seat smiling at her.
-"Did you liked it?", he asked in a sweet voice hiding the roses behind his back before Elsa approach too close to detect them. Elsa giggled after staring Anna who was smiling clapping her hands cheerfully and turned back to Eric.
-"I must admit I did", she replied and then sat down to her seat near to Eric. The servants were passing them by bringing plates full of delicious fresh-cooked meals and cold juices. When the meals were all served, Elsa nodded to the servants to go and eat their own meals too.
-"Elsa if you wish", Anna started", I would like you and I going to the town tomorrow and shop around", Anna finished and cut a slice of bread.
Elsa was caught aback. It was the last thing she would consider about. But she couldn't blame her sister for that, rather than herself. Thinking about it, it wasn't that bad. A walk to downtown would refresh her relationship with her citizens. Elsa smiled politely and nodded to her sister.
-"Anna I would love to come with u", she replied and wiped her mouth with a towel. "Due to this, I would like to announce something I and Eric were talking about a while ago", Elsa finally said and looked towards Eric. Eric smiled and put his hand on hers. Their hands united and squeezed gently. Anna and Kristoff remained silent almost not-breathing. Elsa gazed them for a second and giggled. They looked terrified, a feeling she had experienced multiple times in the past and still was haunting her dreams. Bad memories started surrounding her but fast enough she wiped them out. She was Queen Elsa of Arendelle and she had to stand on her feet.
-"Well as I was saying..", she said realizing that everyone was staring her," Eric and I were talking about the fact that we "expect" and we have reached a conclusion.", she ended and before she even take a breath Eric interrupted her and continued.
-"We decided that we are going to announce to the citizens of Arendelle that Elsa is expecting an heir. Our heir.", Eric said and turned to Elsa who was waiting his response with anguish. When he finally ended Elsa signed with relief and kissed him on his cheek. She was proud of her upcoming husband and most important for the fact that he was standing by her side. Anna laughed and held Elsa's hand.
-"I am so happy for you!", Anna almost screamed out and giggled when she realized the tone of her voice.
-"Good decision Eric",Kristoff said and nodded to Eric who had a wide smile on his face.
Both couples finished their meal, while talking about different subjects considering the kingdom and their future plans. Anna was feeling dizzy after some time and excused Elsa and Eric about leaving so soon from their company and she and Kristoff left the dining hall. Elsa stared concerned her sister until she disappeared from the corner of the hall and then turned her head towards Eric. She found him holding a bucket of blue roses. A sound of surprise emerged from her mouth.
-"Eric they are beautiful!", Elsa replied and hugged her husband. Anna had filled their garden with red, pink and yellow roses but never blue. It was the first time in Elsa's life that she was admiring that close such beautiful roses.
-"You are more!", Eric replied softly and stared her with love. Elsa signed and smiled. Tears started rolling down her cheeks. They were tears of happiness.
-"I love you too", she replied and kissed him passionately.
21st of June
-"Why is so hot in here?", Elsa cried out and created a little cold breeze in her hands. The cold air surrounded her and relaxed her a bit.
Servants and Anna were coming in and out of the room, bringing jewelries and perfumes while Elsa was staring herself in the mirror, trying to find the perfect wedding dress to create upon her body. When finally the inspiration struck her she started creating from the bottom to the top. The bottom was white and loose with many shining diamonds and as Elsa was magically creating it up to her waist, the diamonds made it sparkle in a white and light blue hue. When she reached her waist she created an icy(bearable the hot) transparent ribbon which reflected to the sun and which would separate the rest dress from it's top. Then Elsa smiled and an idea crossed her mind. Immediately she created a strapless white top, designed with snowflakes and then covered it with a transparent surface of ice. The top was glowing light blue and that was the time Elsa garnished it with transparent white sleeves. She was quite ready. She turned to show it to her sister which was staring her amused and fascinated.
-"Elsa it's beautiful!", Anna grasped out and giggled to her sister. Elsa smiled back, satisfied from the result. After that Elsa left the servants do the rest. Her hair were made up with small curls falling down her face and her white shoes were ordered long ago to be made with smooth and comfortable for her feet materials. That was the moment when Anna came closer to Elsa, holding something really careful in her hands. When Elsa leaned down to see, she let out a grasp of astonishment. In her sister's hands, her mother's golden necklace was shining and was "calling " her to take it.
-"Anna this is lovely! Where did you find it?", Elsa questioned her sister full of surprise.
-"Mother had kept it for you", Anna replied and stared the shining necklace. "Is being given from mother to her first daughter through generations, and clearly now is your turn", she said and put it on her sister's neck. The golden necklace matched perfectly with Elsa's white skin and her white-light blue wedding dress. Elsa touched her mother's jewelry and hugged her little sister. Anna's eyes were wet and soon after a tear rolled down her cheek. Elsa caressed Anna's cheek and smiled.
-"You don't want me crying right now!", Elsa cried out while laughing to Anna who was standing still staring bemused at her beautiful sister.
Eric was waiting patiently at the back of the hall standing on a podium, while holding a bucket of white and blue roses. The crowd was getting gathered and after a while the royal family of Faroe Islands appeared into the hall of the wedding ceremony. King Edfast stepped first into the hall, being followed by Thorian the upcoming King of Faroe Islands now that Eric would remain in Arendelle and last Amelia stepped in. She had grown up a few inches and her black hair which once were short and wavy, now were long and curly. She was growing to ,a beautiful young women. With her aquamarine eyes she was searching to find her older brother and when she did, she found him staring at her while smiling.
-"Son!", King Edfast said and hugged Eric who was smiling at him.
-"Father!" , Eric replied and then turned to his brother who was waiting poker faced. Eric turned serious and stared his brother who was remaining cold blood.
-"What's the sensation of becoming King?", Eric finally spoke and hug his brother as convincingly as he could. Thorian gazed around and then smirked.
-"What , about you? How do you feel about getting married?", Thorian dared to ask and stared Eric.
-"It's pretty amazing, speaking the truth", Eric replied and smiled happily. Thorian's gaze darkened and lowered his look.
-" And Elsa? Is she as good as she seems to be?", he asked serious enough and raised his head.
-"Much better", Eric replied tired of this disturbing conversation and turned to Amelia who was waiting patiently for her turn.
-"Look at you! You've grown up so much! I missed like 4 months away and you've become almost a woman!", Eric said amused by his sister's beauty! Amelia blushed a bit and hugged his brother.
-"Thank you for your sweet words brother", Amelia replied but then turned back at him with a questioned look. "But I am looking forward to see Elsa. She is always so beautiful." Eric nodded her and looked towards the hall. People had sat and waited patiently for the bride to arrive. King Edfast nodded to his family to follow him and when they did they sat on their seats which were putted next to the podium of where Elsa and Eric would stand on. On the other side of the podium Anna had just arrived and had sat on her place, being alone due to the fact that Kristoff would bring Elsa in.
Elsa was standing outside of the hall breathing slowly. She could see all those people gathered and the only thing that crossed her mind was her pointing belly which was practically covered by the dress. Kristoff was waiting next to her, feeling a bit nervous that he would be seen by so many people. Elsa looked him and grasped. Kristoff turned to her and smiled.
-"Everything will be just fine. Don't you worry.", Kristoff said and putted his arms on her shoulders. Elsa glanced at him with hope and signed.
-"Let's do this!", she said with determination and grabbed his left arm. Kristoff smiled at her and raised his head, just before he pushed the door in front of him. A sweet wedding melody started playing when they entered the hall and the crowd turned to look Elsa who was glowing into her wedding dress. The distance between Elsa and Eric was sort of long, due to the fact that they had putted more seats in order for the crowd to seat. Without doubt this was one of the biggest events of Elsa's life and consequently of kingdom's history. Next to every seat Anna had put big candlesticks which were connecting with each other by long tulles colored with hues of blue and light-blue. Elsa was surprised to see how much Anna had worked for the decoration of the ceremony hall. Everything was so perfect. "I could never have made it without them", Elsa mulled over while walking towards Eric. When they finally reached him, Elsa turned to Kristoff who putted her hand smoothly on Eric's one. As he walked towards Anna who was seating patiently smiling at her she noticed that her sister was touched by the atmosphere. Tears had filled her eyes and she was smiling at Elsa who was staring her confused. When she finally smiled back, she turned to Eric who was starring her thrilled. Elsa giggled and clenched his hand. A cool breeze from the open window made Elsa startle and turn her head to see where it had come from. Unfortunately her gaze stopped into Thorian. Her smile wiped out and her eyes goggled. King Edfast bowed first, making Elsa "wake up" and bow back. Amelia smiled to Elsa who was about to run and hug her but then remembered that the ceremony had to begin. However, even when she turned back to Eric and the priest started the procedure Elsa couldn't get off her head the image of Thorian. Her heart was beating fast and she could feel her fingers getting frozen. She breathed slowly and stared the priest. "Everything will soon be over", she mulled over and turned to look Eric's calm and happy face.
The royal couple stepped out the ceremony hall and shared a passionate kiss. People were clapping at this view and many women were throwing flowers on them. Elsa looked back to find Anna laughing. Kristoff was holding her hand and was smiling to the people around them, who were also congratulating them for their expectancy. Elsa turned back to Eric who was staring his family. His gaze was pensive and Elsa tried to find the way his glance was following. When she did, she turned her face away. Thorian was staring at them.
-"As I said before and I will repeat many times in the future, we will get through this!", Eric turned to Elsa who was looking at him thoughtful. He kissed her forehead and nodded her to follow him towards the royal carriage which was waiting for them, in order to take them back to the palace.
