Hello my dearies!
I am so thrilled I got ao many views! I was having a rough day and when I saw the amount of views on this and I just felt better!
Thank you! SO here is the next Chappy!
"Miss Arengard?" I turned to the surprising voice of Gerda.
"Yes ma'am?" I asked with a slight frown.
"The queen wishes for your presents at lunch," she said and I stared at her dumbly.
"Uh...right now?" I was covered in dirt!
"Not yet but within the hour, it will be held in the garden," she said before leaving.
Oh wow...
I need to wash!
I rushed to my room and scrubbed myself so clean I swear I was sparkling.
Then I put on my brown slacks and white dress shirt with a black over coat that had the Arendale design on the back. I quickly pulled on my black shoes and checked my hair. I had father shave the side when I was there, but it had very short hair there now while the other side was a little longer. The rest of my hair was short like a boys' with the exception of the hair on my neck being long enough for a small and thin braid that was held by a small black ribbon.
On my way out I quickly snipped off a red and yellow rose.
Taking a deep breath I walked to the sitting area of the garden that held a round metal table with comfy metal chairs. Food was already set and the queen was idly chatting with Anna and Kristoff. I cleared my throat more in nervousness then to get their attention. They went silent and looked at me. I could feel my face redden slightly. I was never one for attention.
"Good afternoon your majesties and ice harvester," I said with a smile. A nervous smile, but a smile no less. Anna giggled behind her hand and Kristoff rubbed the back of his head. The queen was just staring...
Were her eyes just meeting mine from looking me up and down?
I shook my head slightly and presented the roses to the royal sisters. Red for the queen and yellow for the princess. By now you should know the meanings by now and if you don't...
Red = love and yellow = friendship.
I turned to Kristoff.
"Want me to get you one too?" I said mockingly. Kristoff was a nice guy and we got along just fine. A commoner to a commoner. He chuckled and shook his head.
"Na I'm good Green thumb," that's what he called me and I was okay with it.
"Take a seat!" Anna chirped waving to the chair next to her sister. The queen had yet to say anything as she was examining the rose. I took the seat and tried to relax.
"How was your little vacation green thumb?" Kristoff asked as he leaned back.
"Ah it was crazy! Rose was upset that I didn't bring her anything while Daisy and Poppy kept begging to come see me at work one day," I said with a laugh.
"What about Lilly? Where was she?" He asked.
"She was out with her friends and was the least of my problems. Ma and pa kept asking when I was going to settle down with a nice girl and I kept telling them that I would when the time was right I mean I am only 20 for crying out loud!" Kristoff and I both started laughing as Anna giggled. The queen was just smiling while listening.
"Families huh?" Kristoff asked and I chuckled.
"A pain but you gotta love them," I said and we ate as we talked.
"And then as I was about to claim victory Rose jumped out of nowhere and practically buried me in snow!" I was laughing hard as I finished the epic snowball fight I had with my siblings. Anna and Kristoff where bent at the waists laughing. I even heard the little twinkling of the queens own musical giggle. After everything calmed down we enjoyed the moment to think.
"I still find it amusing that your parents named you all after flowers," Anna giggled.
"Yea, I wonder about them sometimes they even named my baby brother Burch," I smiled and Anna giggled
"Then why is your name Elizabella?" The queen asked. We looked at her. This was the first time she had said something out of her own.
"I do not know my queen. By the time Lilly was born I was 7 and knee deep in dirt with an already expansive knowledge of flora," I explained.
"It is kind of odd," Kristoff agreed.
"Yea! Besides Elizabella sounds like a royal name," Anna chided in. The queen frowned slightly with her eyes narrowed.
"There was a princess named Elizabella," She said and Anna looked like something had clicked in her head like a puzzle piece into another.
"Yea I learned it the other day! From the Kingdom of Eden!" Her face fell after a second.
"But the kingdom fell after war with the Southern Isles and the newly born princess died with her parents,"
"Anna that's what they say, but the baby was never found among anyone," the queen said, correcting her sister.
"Kingdom of Eden?" I asked confused.
"Yes it was actually known for its garden," Anna said and Elsa looked to me slightly.
"Don't you call the garden your Eden?" The queen asked. I blushed slightly.
"Um...yes...I only heard of the expression from my parents. They kept telling me that I created a 'Garden of Eden'," I said.
"No relations...right?" Kristoff asked unsure. This conversation just turned weird.
"Well I'm sure there are reasons for things and that it's merely coincidences," I said nervously rubbing the back of my head while smiling. The queen stared at me for some time...analysing me.
"Well...you are the age the princess would have been by now," she said and I could feel colour drain from my face.
...Well...um...
Imma stop here...
Let you all take that in...
Also my head can't handle all the dialogue...I think I mentioned that not being my strongest point...
Please let me know your thoughts
