Happy Endings-Chapter Five.


Kristoff arrived at Anna and Elsa's home five minutes earlier than expected. They were going on their first real dinner date at the local Bistro and he was more than excited. He already knew that Anna was going to look as beautiful as she always did. He'd even gone out and bought a shirt, tie and pants for himself, with the help of Bulda of course.

He was about to knock on the door and then paused when he he heard banging coming from inside. He cautiously turned the handle and was surprised to see that it was unlocked. He made a mental reminder to make sure to tell Anna that she should lock her doors at all times.

He walked into her house and jumped back when he saw Anna throwing furniture around, seemingly turning the whole of the living room upside down.

She looked dishevelled. She was wearing a patterned halter neck dress that shown off her figure beautifully. Her hair was curled to the side and her bangs were swept along with it, however it was all falling apart as she continued to wreck the living room. She was wearing a pair of black strapped heels which were half done up in her frantic state and for the first time he noticed that she was wearing earrings.

He walked over to her, slowly so he wouldn't startle her. It was obvious that something was wrong. "Anna? Anna, what are you doing?"

At the sound of his voice she turned and he immediately froze. She was in tears, snot everywhere, literally. The front of her hair was stuck to the wet tears on her cheeks and her make-up was running down her face.

"I can't find it." She said frantically getting back to her searching. "Damn it Kristoff, don't just stand there.. Help me find it!"

Kristoff didn't move. He'd never seen her like this before. Sure he'd seen her upset but never like this, never this fragile. He'd assumed that she was always just a happy go lucky type of person who occasionally had a stubbornness but this.. This was different.

"Anna stop, look at me." He grabbed her wrist and turned her to face him. "What can't you find? Tell me and I'll help you okay?"

Anna nodded and Kristoff went to the kitchen, grabbed a piece of tissue and handed it to her. After she blown her nose and wiped a couple stray tears she began explaining.

"My mothers engagement ring, I-I can't find it anywhere, it's all I had of hers. It's all I had. Kristoff, I need to find it. I-I.." She fell into Kristoff's chest and to him it was like a punch in the gut. She looked so limp, he knew how much that ring meant to her.

"Okay, calm down, we'll find it okay. When did you last see it?"

"I um, I fell asleep on the couch this afternoon watching The Lion King and I'm pretty sure I had it on then." She swallowed hard trying to remember. "And then I woke up and I looked at the time, and I was going to be late so I quickly got ready. It could be anywhere, the shower, the wardrobe, the sink, anywhere."

He brushed a hand against her cheek and swept a stray piece of hair behind her ear. He held his fingers there and she melted into his touch. She looked so upset and he was going to fix that.

"Okay Anna, you go and clean up, wash your face, take some deep breaths and I'll keep looking okay? We'll find it, I promise." Anna hesitated and then saw the reassurance in Kristoff's chocolate brown eyes. She forced a small smile and headed towards the bathroom, praying that he'd find it.


He looked everywhere but he couldn't see it. In defeat he moved the couch back to its original place in the living room and perched onto it. He placed his head in his hands that rested on his knees. Then he noticed it, a shiny object next to the DVD player that was situated under the television. He ran over to the glimmering object and picked it up.

It was the ring. He sighed happily, feeling like a weight had been lifted from upon his shoulders and ran towards where Anna had headed earlier.

He expected to see her in the bathroom clearing her falling tears but he didn't. She was curled up on her bed snoring softly. She'd gotten out of her heels and dress and had put on a sweatshirt and a pair of leggings. Kristoff smiled and looked at his watch and sighed when he saw that if they left now they'd be half an hour late for their reservation. Plus he'd have to wake her up and he really didn't want to do that. She looked so peaceful and he was certain that he'd never heard her be this quiet.

He walked back in the living room and searched for a take out menu, pizza was more their thing anyway he thought as he dialled the number.

The pizza arrived 40 minutes later and Anna was still in a blissful sleep. Kristoff walked over to her and placed a small peck on her forehead which caused her to roll over and smile before realising that she'd ruined their date by falling asleep.

"Oh gosh Kristoff, I'm so sorry."

He wrapped an arm around her waist in comfort. "Hey, it's okay. There's pizza in the kitchen instead, I got you your favourite!"

"Chicken and sweetcorn?" She smiled wide.

"Of course." He chuckled as she practically ran to the kitchen, all worries about the ring had seemed to be forgotten.

He walked over to the breakfast bar and took a seat next to her.

"I found the ring." Kristoff said waiting for Anna's expression. He expected her to be happy sure but tears? He didn't see that coming.

"Y-you did?" She cried, hugging him tightly. He handed her the ring and she placed it back to it's original place on her finger. "You're the best, thank you."

"It's no problem." She hugged him again, this time for several minutes until she remembered the pizza in front of her and she turned her attention back to that.

"I'm sorry I ruined out date." She mumbled, fumbling which the pieces of chicken on her pizza.

Kristoff climbed off his stool, walked around to the other side of Anna and placed his hands around her middle and she leaned against his shoulder.

"Anna, I honestly don't care. Do you think formal dates are really our sort of thing?" She chuckled into his shoulder, it was then she realised that he was dressed up and.. was he wearing aftershave?

"But you got dressed up and everything and I ruined it because of a stupid ring!" She cried against him.

"Hey. It's not a stupid ring, it was your mother's and you have the right to be upset about losing it. Honestly Anna, I don't mind."

Kristoff let go of Anna and loosened his tie before taking it off and throwing it on the table. "See, I hated it anyway." She smiled and they went back to eating their pizza.


It was starting to get late but both Kristoff and Anna were happy with each other's company and didn't really want to move. They decided to watch a movie, well they'd both decided but Anna had been the one to choose the movie. Of course it had been a cliché romantic comedy with a happy ending.

The big kiss was near, Kristoff could tell because they started playing 'that music.' He described it as the sound that played on the build up that would get louder and louder. The couple were in a public place and everyone was watching. The guy had just done some emotional speech about how he was a douche but he'd only done it because he loved her. Maybe Kristoff was getting too into this movie. They were about to lean in for the big kiss and then..

Kristoff heard soft snores below him.

Anna had curled up against him at the beginning of the film but somehow she'd managed to make room on the two-seater couch to flop her legs out and lie with her head rested on Kristoff's lap.

He'd settled one hand on her side with his fingers gently twirling the ends of her hair. The other hand was placed on the armrest next to him.

He smiled at her and glanced back at the screen, he'd missed the kiss. Not that he minded of course because he was a firm believer that happy endings didn't exist. Well they didn't did they?

He looked back at Anna. She looked so peaceful and he felt nothing but joy and happiness. He hoped that someday he'd be able to express his feelings properly. He did feel love for her, but it wasn't something he exactly wanted to say out loud right now. Especially with them both having such bad relationships with others in the past. He could wait until their hearts healed, they could help each other with that, more than any doctor could anyway.

Kristoff glanced towards the clock, it was nearing 10pm and he knew Elsa would be home then. He didn't want to move her so he just sat there in hope that Elsa would just pass it off.


Elsa arrived later than usual and when she entered her home she heard multiple snores coming from the lounge. She smirked to herself as she walked inwards and saw Anna with her head rested in Kristoff's lap and him with his head lopsided as he was finding rest himself.

She laughed at the idea of waking them up and watching them scramble apologies. Perhaps she shouldn't do that, she already had Kristoff afraid of her. He'd even asked her if he could take her on this date, a real date. She just smiled politely and told him that he didn't need to ask.

Elsa shut off all the lights in the house and took to her own bed. She thought about how fun the next morning would be with them trying to explain.

Let's just say it involved a lot of flushed cheeks, scrambling to find ties and giggling to say the least.


A/N: I have a few things to say, firstly I'm sorry that this chapter isn't my best.. I've had a bit of a bad week and struggled to get this out perfectly, that explains why it's so short. I hope you can still enjoy. Secondly, I realise that I write Kristoff's feelings more than Anna's but that will be explained soon (the next chapter is mainly Anna centric.) Finally there is some drama ahead so if you're looking for angst, just wait;)

If there is any errors in this chapter please let me know, I was half asleep when I edited this!:)

(Also I apologise is the updates are getting slower, I start college/sixth form next week and it'll be hard to keep on top of everything. I'll try my best to update once every week or two but I can't promise anything!)

Your guys' reviews mean everything to me to thank you so much to everyone who reviews/follows/favourites! I love you all xo
