Thanks for all the follows, favorites and reviews! You guys are the best :D
Elsa took a long relaxing shower and put on a light blue tank top and jeans. Her platinum blonde hair was in a braid that hung over her shoulder. She stood in front of the large mirror of her bedroom and let her icy blue eyes examine herself, smirking. She looked good.
Loud knocks on her door startled her. "Elsa, hurry up!" Hans complained.
The blonde rolled her eyes and ignored him. Sneakers or heels? She thought about it for a while before choosing sneakers. She began to put them on just as her eyes fell on her purse. The chocolate she took in the studio was still in there. She had to take it to the kitchen.
"Elsa!" Hans shouted.
"Just wait a second!" Elsa shouted back.
As soon as they had come home from work, Hans had complained about how sad it was to spend a Friday night at home. He convinced Elsa to go out somewhere, the blonde still had no idea where he planned to go. She wasn't very fond of going out; everyone would recognize her and ask for pictures and autographs. At first she liked the attention but after a couple of months it just became annoying. Nevertheless, Hans was right. It was a Friday night and it had been a tough week so the girl deserved to have some fun.
She grabbed her purse and opened the door, walking through the living room over to the kitchen where she stopped to place all the chocolate bars on the counter.
"Oh hey," Hans said and Elsa turned around to look at him, "You're ready." He smiled sheepishly as he leaned against a wall. He was only wearing a white t-shirt and boxers. His hair looked the same it did when they reported the news meaning he still hadn't taken a shower.
"And you're not." The blonde stared at him in disbelief before sighing, "Come on, go get ready."
He grinned, walked in his room and then entered his bathroom. Elsa sighed, walking to the living room and flopping down on the couch.
The apartment was big. There were two big bedrooms and each one of them had a bathroom. In the living room there was a large leather couch and a coffee table while on the wall hung a huge TV. All the furniture was pretty expensive-looking.
Elsa was playing some game on her phone when the doorbell rang. She immediately stopped playing and looked at the door with a raised eyebrow. Who could it be? Elsa wasn't expecting anybody, but maybe Hans was. Maybe it was his girlfriend and he forgot to mention she was coming over. Or maybe it was a crazy fan who wanted to rape and then murder them. Or the other way around.
She walked to the door and looked through the peephole. A redheaded girl with twin braids stood there. She was wearing jean shorts and a green blonde frowned when she couldn't recognize the girl. She'd never seen her before so she couldn't be one of the building workers and she definitely wasn't Belle, Hans' girlfriend. Elsa sighed. She must be a fan, then. She shrugged.
She was about to turn around and go back to playing games on her phone when the redhead looked up and Elsa got to look at her eyes. Her pretty teal eyes were puffy and red from crying. A sudden urge to let the girl inside and get her to stop feeling sad overcame her.
Elsa didn't know what to do; she shouldn't let some stranger in her apartment but she couldn't just ignore her either. Maybe she was looking for someone else but ended up on her door. With a sigh, the blonde unlocked and opened the door. The redhead didn't look dangerous anyway.
The sudden movement startled the redhead, who stared wide-eyed at the taller girl standing in front of her. She recognized the woman and gasped, ogling her not so subtly.
"Hi?" The blonde said suddenly very annoyed with the girl's behaviour.
"What?" The girl looked back up at Elsa's face, "Hi me?"
"Yeah... you are on my doorstep."
The redhead blushed, "Oh, yeah. I'm sorry. I mean I knew Hans had a roommate, I should've guessed it would be someone he worked with. Although I kinda thought it would be Belle because, you know... but it's great that it's you and not her! I mean not that I don't like her or anything, she's great, but I've always wanted to meet you because uh, I see you on TV all the time and you're... wow and I'm rambling aren't I? I'm so sorry. I ramble when I'm nervous. Sorry. Okay I'll stop now." She said and clasped her hands over her mouth, blushing a darker shade of red. After processing what the girl said, Elsa giggled, whether it was because of the girl's rant or her blush she didn't know. She found the girl extremely adorable for some reason. She was sure she wasn't dangerous now and apparently she knew Hans and his girlfriend so maybe she wasn't just a simple fan.
The redhead stared at her and Elsa cleared her throat awkwardly, "So... who are you?"
"Anna. Anna Fosberg. I'm Anna." She said quickly, holding out her hand. It amazed Elsa how the girl seemed so happy and cheerful when she obviously had been crying a lot not long ago.
"Elsa Aspen." The blonde said, shaking the younger girl's hand lighty.
"I know!" She grinned.
"Yeah... why are you here?"
"Oh right! I was hoping I could talk with my cousin?" Anna dropped her hand to her side and fiddled with a rather big bag she was holding, which Elsa hadn't noticed before. Why did she have a bag?
"Cousin?"
"Yeah! Hans. He is my cousin." After not getting a response, Anna talked again, "Hans lives here, right? Oh my god, I'm so sorry. A few months ago he told me where he lived and I thought I remembered and since you work with him I just assumed he did liv-"
"Yes, he lives here," Elsa interrumpted, amused, "Come in." She stepped back and let the younger girl enter the apartment, "He is in the shower right now but he should be getting out soon." She closed the door and motioned towards the couch in the living room. Anna quickly sat down, placed her bag on the floor and looked around in awe. The blonde chuckled when the redhead gasped loudly after noticing the big TV.
"This place looks so expensive." She breathed. Elsa smiled.
"Do you want anything to drink? Water, milk, anything?"
Anna shook her head, "No, thank you." She smiled and Elsa sat down next to her.
"I always watch TV." The redhead blurted suddenly.
"Oh. Nice." The platinum blonde looked at the younger girl, who was starting to blush. It was common that people got nervous around her so she never cared, but for some reason she didn't want Anna to be nervous, "Do you watch the news?" She said softly, trying to get the girl to be comfortable.
"Yes! Hans reports them so I make sure to watch everyday." She blushed more, "Not because I think he's attractive or anything, he's my cousin." She said quickly and Elsa giggled.
She unlocked her phone and resumed playing the game. She forgot the redhead was there until she heard a sniff. Anna's eyes were glassy and she looked like she was about break down. Elsa was nervous all of a sudden; if she started crying she'd have to comfort her and she wasn't good at comforting people. The girl was playing with the sleeves of her hoodie when she sniffed again and that broke Elsa's heart a little. Anna was too cute to cry. Elsa didn't want her to cry.
"Hey," She said softly before placing her hand on the girl's shoulder, "I don't know why you're upset but uh, I'm sure whatever it is that's making you upset will be fixed soon." Elsa winced. She really didn't know how to comfort people.
"Thanks." Anna said quietly with a small smile but tears had already started to fall from her teal eyes. Elsa wanted to hug her and just when she was about to do it, Hans came out of his room.
His copper hair was still wet and he was wearing jeans, a blue t-shirt, a lot of cologne and a smile. That is until he saw his cousin crying on the couch. With green eyes full of confusion and worry, he quickly made his way over to the girl and crouched in front of her.
"Anna, what's wrong?" He asked, wiping the tears from her cheeks with his thumbs. She wrapped her arms around him and buried her face in his neck, sobbing wildly. He held her close and rubbed soothing circles on her back. After a couple of minutes, the sobbing had ceased considerably so Hans tried again, "What's wrong, Anna?" He asked gently.
"They kicked me out." She hiccuped on his neck and the man frowned.
"From school?"
Another sob escaped the girl as she shook her head, "My parents kicked me out of their house."
Elsa, who had been sitting on the couch watching the whole exchange, gasped. Why would they kick this girl out? Elsa found it hard to believe Anna would do a thing so bad they'd kick her out. She frowned, suddenly disliking the girl's parents a lot. Hans gulped and turned to Elsa with pleading eyes. The blonde knew what he wanted; he wanted to tell Anna she could stay in their apartment and he was asking Elsa if she was okay with it. She nodded and he smiled.
"You can stay here, Anna." He said and Anna immediately pulled away from the hug, rubbing her eyes.
"No, no. That's not why I came here. I just didn't have anywhere else to go so I came here so I could stay and... yeah I guess that's why I came here."
Hans chuckled and ruffled the redheaded girl's hair. She pouted but it quickly turned into a smile. The girl threw her arms around the man again. The sight made Elsa smile.
"Thank you so much, Hans! I promise I won't be here for long, I just have to try and fi- wait," She pulled away quickly and looked at Elsa with wide eyes, "You don't mind that I stay, right? If you don't want me to then I can just leave, I mean it's your apartment too it's not only Hans'. I should've asked you befo-."
"You can stay," Elsa cut her off, "I don't mind, really." Anna grinned and threw her arms around Elsa, hugging her tightly.
"Thank you so much!" She said excitedly. Elsa was shocked but quickly recovered and returned the hug.
"No problem." She muttered.
Elsa and Hans decided not to go out so they could stay with Anna, who still started crying randomly every once in a while. After eating a pizza they ordered, Elsa decided that she should let the cousins talk alone so she said goodnight and entered her bedroom.
As soon as Elsa's door clicked shut, Hans stared at his cousin expectantly.
"What?" Anna asked innocently although she knew what Hans wanted know.
"Why did your parents kick you out?" He asked gently, scared that maybe it would make her start crying again. Anna was a good girl so Hans could only think of one thing that would get his uncle and aunt to kick her out. He wished he was wrong, though. He wanted to believe they wouldn't kick their only daughter out of their house for such a stupid reason.
"I came out to them." Anna said quietly. Hans sighed as he shook his head to himself. They did kick her out because of that. Hans loved Anna's parents; they were good people. But extremely homophobic for some reason. "I should've known they'd react like that."
He smiled sadly and squeezed her shoulder gently, "They just need time to come to terms with it."
"John came out 5 years ago and they still hate him."
Hans chuckled, "I don't know why everyone was so shocked. I mean, 13 brothers. At least one of us had to be gay." She giggled.
"He being gay wasn't why were shocked. We were shocked because he thought humping a picture of Zac Efron in front of everyone was a good way to come out."
Hans laughed and shook his head, "He's crazy. Anyway, Anna, you're their daughter and they love you. They'll accept it eventually." She immediately frowned and looked down at her lap, "Anna just give them some tim-"
"They said I'm not their daughter anymore." She blurted.
"Oh, Anna..." He shook his head, "You know they jus-" He started.
"It's fine." She cut him off, "I don't want to talk about them anymore."
Hans nodded and stood up from the couch, "You should rest." He said as he walked into his room. He came back with a pillow and a blanket, placing them down on the couch. Anna nodded and attempted to grab the pillow before having her hand slapped by Hans. She looked at her cousin with a raised brow, "You can sleep in my bed. I'll sleep here." He said.
Anna shook her head quickly, "No. This is your place. I sleep in the couch, you sleep in your bed."
"Nope. I don't want my favorite cousin to sleep in the couch."
"Too bad." Anna lay down and wrapped the blanket around herself.
"Anna, come on."
"No. Now leave, peasant. A princess needs her beauty sleep."
He rolled his eyes. "You are so stubborn, Your Highness." She grinned and he laughed. "Well, goodnight, then."
"Night!" She said. He began to walk to his room before stopping abruptly. How could he forget? He quickly walked back over to Anna, "What's up?" She asked, confused.
"Uhm..." He started quietly, "It's about Elsa, she doesn-"
"Oh I like Elsa!" She interrumpted, "She's really nice. And pretty damn hot!" She grinned.
"Shh!" Hans widened his eyes in fear. She said that so loudly. Elsa is homophobic. If she found out about Anna's sexuality... he shook his head. He didn't want to think about it.
"What's wrong?" Anna asked, "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm just tired." He said quietly, "Look, Anna, you can't tell Elsa why your parents kicked you out."
Anna looked taken aback. "Why? I'm staying here so I think she has the right to know."
"Yeah... but don't tell her just yet. She just hates uh," He blinked a few times, trying to think of something, "She hates homophobic people. She'd get so mad if she knew your parents did that to you she might just go and kill them or something." He said regretting the words as soon as they left his mouth.
"Oh."
"So yeah, don't tell her. Please. You don't wanna see her mad, trust me."
She nodded, "Okay. Thanks." He muttered a goodnight. "Goodnight. And thanks for letting me stay." He smiled at her and entered his room, closing the door.
Hans sighed. "Anna will tell her." He flopped down on his bed, "And Elsa will lose her shit."
