We're only two days away from our destination. The trip has taken a total of 3 days so far but I was already over being on the ship. My husband on the other hand loved being on the boat and the salty sea air. He preferred forest more but the ocean was a nice change. He was a little wary of going back to Arendelle this winter because of the last time we were there during Elsa's coronation, but that had been four years ago, who knows what's happening now? My husband of 7 years came down the deck.
"Come on blondie you're missing the view." He said with a smirk holding out his hand.
"Eugene." I growled.
"Fine, I just can't shake that nickname. You know I have a thing for brunettes though." He winked pulling me in for a kiss. I kissed him back.
"Princess Rapunzel, the water's getting a little rough. I suggest you and Prince Flynn stay down here." One of the crew said coming down into the lower part of the deck.
"Ok." I said, opening up the blanket I had been huddled up in to Eugene. The crew member walked back up.
"You're hair has grown." Eugene said sitting down next to me and grabbing a price of my below breast length, brunette hair.
"Yeah I know, I don't plan to make it any longer!" I said with a chuckle, snuggling up closer to him.
2 days later.
Elsa's pov
The guest would be arriving any day now. It would either be Rapunzel and Flynn or Eider's family and both made me nervous. I had written to Rapunzel recently telling her to visit sometime and she said Flynn wasn't sure because of what happened last time. Last time I froze Arendelle. This mistake always creeps up on me, even in my family. Especially with Anna. Anna was showing a little so I asked her about telling the rest of the kingdom that a new Prince or Princess was going to be born.
"No I would like to wait a little longer Elsa." She replied.
"Are you sure?" I asked, I wanted this out of the way.
"Ya I'm sure! Why does everyone keep asking me that!" Anna said angrily. "I can make my own choices when it comes to my baby, not you, not the mid-wife, not Eider and not Kristoff! ME!" She sobbed loudly and ran into her room. She was still trying to balance her unbalanced hormones. I don't think she was understanding. It's true we were pushing her to do things.
"Don't run down the stairs!" Kristoff yelled.
"Don't eat junk food!" The mid-wife screeched.
"Be careful and walk around." Eider stated.
"Tell the kingdom you're pregnant!" I would demand. We must be driving her crazy. She was driving ME crazy. I love Anna so much and couldn't imagine life without my sister but she seemed a little distant lately. Kristoff was constantly out with Sven, I was either being a Queen or with Eider and Eider was with me or reading! Olaf has been disappearing to do something but I don't know what, and the stress of Eider's family possibly coming has really put our relationship at a troubled distance. Every time we talk we argue about something. Or she'll interrupt me at the worst moments like when I'm in a meeting with the other council members, she did that today. I wiped my flushed face with my hand, she makes me so mad. But I decided to let it go. She needed me.
"Anna." I said going up after her ignoring the council members calling me back. I knocked on her room door. "Anna please I know you're in there."
"Go away Elsa."
"Kristoff has been asking where you've been, they say this is difficult, I know it's true. I'm right out here for you, just let me in. You're the only sister I have, it's just you and me. I don't know what I would do. Without you. Do you want to build a snowman?" I sang softly to her door. I heard a click and her door opened slowly. There were tears in Anna's eyes and she hugged me.
"I love you Elsa. I remember when you sang that when I was nervous to get married." She cried.
"I love you too." I replied, hugging her tighter.
"This has really been hard on me, I wasn't going to tell anyone and put in a brave face but I've really been struggling Elsa. I have all these limitations and I don't want them. Kristoff is even afraid to sleep in bed with me because he doesn't want to roll over and crush me. I'm not even that big yet." She cried. "I want my husband back, I want Olaf back, and I want you back because I feel so lonely. The midwife isn't good company." She smiled slightly wiping her tears. I chuckled softly.
"So about that snowman?" I asked.
"THE GUESTS SHIP HAS ARRIVED FROM CORONA!" The royal announcer called out.
"Corona?" Eider asked coming up behind us.
"Eider you scared me! Where did you come from?" Anna asked.
"I was... Listening." He smiled.
"To how much?" I asked crossing my arms and cocking my hip.
"You have a very lovely voice, you should sing more." He winked going down the steps, interested in the guests. I felt my cheeks get red.
"He's right you know." Anna said with a bright smile. She walked over to the stairs and paused.
"Walk me down? They're actually a little scary." Anna shrugged.
"Of course." I replied grabbing her arm. Eider was waiting for us in the middle of the stair case, he linked on to Anna's arm.
"Sorry, I left you back there." He chuckled softly. Before we could even finish our trip down the stairs our cousin, Rapunzel, burst through our doors followed by her husband Flynn. Her hair had grown in the four years since I had seen her, down past her breast. (AN: I talk about boobs a lot for some reason. I don't even like boobs, they are really annoying)
"Elsa, Anna!" She squealed running up the stairs while Flynn admired our castle. "Queen Elsa." She corrected bowing then hugging us both.
"Rapunzel! I'm so happy you're here!" Anna squealed hugging her cousin again.
" Anna you look so much older! You're practically glowing!" Rapunzel said.
"Hello Rapunzel, you're hair looks beautiful." I said hugging her again.
"Thanks so much, you look the same! In a very good way!" Rapunzel gushed.
"Thank you." I replied turning to Eider. "This is Prince Eider of Ruddulfia." I said grabbing his hand.
"Nice to meet you." Eider said shaking her hand.
"You too, are you and Elsa married yet?" Rapunzel asked.
"No, no not yet, we're waiting a while." Eider said adjusting his collar. I smiled at him and turned to Rapunzel, Flynn had just come up behind her smirking. He grabbed her sides making her squeal.
"Eugene!" She said swatting him away, he smirked with pleaser.
"Eugene?" I asked.
"His real name is Eugene but he goes by Flynn." Rapunzel said awkwardly.
"Hi, I don't think we've met before." He said sticking out his hand to Eider, ignoring me and Anna.
"No, I'm Prince Eider of Ruddulfia. I'm with Elsa." He smiled shaking his hand.
"Oh, the ice queen." Flynn said pulling his hand away, Rapunzel scowled at him.
"Eugene manners please. Don't make me get the frying pan." She said pushing him slightly.
"Oh come on! Fine, hello Queen Elsa." He said bowing to me, Anna cleared her throat. "Oh and Princess Anna. Sorry, you look lovely." Flynn said with fake enthusiasm. Anna huffed and pushed past him, finishing the trek down the stairs.
"You will not be rude to my sister." I warned, Flynn actually looked scared for his life. Kristoff arrived from brushing Sven.
"Hey strangers on the stairs!" He called up while going to find Anna in the dinning room.
"Dinner is served my Queen." One on the servants said bowing. We all walked to the dinning hall with awkward moods.
