Ok let me get this going here for chapter 13 since today is my last day off til next week and was knocked out of the game yesterday with a stupid stomach bug. Yeah when it rains it pours sometimes lol. Anywho I am back and ready to get a chapter out for this story since I got one out for my other :) As always I do not own any of these characters.
Jack was busy responding to some of his letters when North sent for him. Jack came down, "Hey, what's going on? Why did you pull me from responding to my letters from my family?" North chuckled, "My boy, I am going to take you to the place where I proposed to my wife. I know you and Elsa will love it. It is very beautiful during the summer. Especially at night." as he led them to the stables. Jack nodded and followed his lead. Once they arrived in the stables, the horses were already ready to go. Jack chuckled, "You wasted no time with this I see."
North climbed up on his brown horse, "Indeed I have. Come, the ladies have almost finished their training." Jack nodded and climbed up on his assigned horse, since his was back in Icella. North yelled to the horse, "Hyah Magnus!"as they both took off into the valley and into the forest. The rode down the trail before they slowed to a stop. The both got off and North led them into a hidden area where a waterfall and dozens of flora surrounded the lake.
Jack felt his mouth drop, "Whoa North, you weren't kidding. This place is amazing. It's just so, perfect!" still in awe of the location. North chuckled, "Indeed it is Jack. Once nightfall hits, the flowers will bloom and shine in the moonlight. The lake is as smooth as glass. Everything here feels magical." as he admired the old place, memories flooding his mind from the years before. Jack nodded, "I can't argue with you there." North smiled, "So, do you know when you are going to propose to my daughter? Best be it soon, that way your parents could meet her."
Jack thought a moment, 'Definitely soon. I just want everything to be perfect. I want Elsa to never forget this." North chuckled again, "Believe me, she won't forget this." he said smiling, but soon it faded, "Have you heard about her nightmares?" Jack sighed and frowned himself, "I have. She told me all about it. I told her he is dead and never coming back. But I can't help having this strange feeling I am wrong. Nyx is still out there and who knows what he is capable of. Especially having Pitch's magic now. I am so worried for Elsa."
North nodded, "I agree Jack. I just have to wait for Rayla's response. I want to see what she can do to help." Jack nodded his head as well, North heaved a sigh, "Well let us get back to happier news. We need to get everything ready without Elsa having the slightest idea." Jack smiled, "Took the words right out of my mouth North. How many can we get involved that could help without giving Elsa any ideas?" North chuckled, "For one, definitely not Anna. She would burst at the seams the moment she knows you are going to propose." Jack laughed along with North, knowing full well that was true.
Bunny panted as he finished the girl's refreshing on their training. They too were panting after their allotted time ended up going an hour over. Bunny smiled, "Well done ladies, I'm definitely proud of all of you. Get some rest tonight, you all are going to need it, I know I will." They laughed and headed off on their way as Bunny picked up a few things before he went home. Anna bounced along down the trail, "That was incredible. I can't believe how much we've learned and how well we managed to beat him up." Narcissa chuckled, "Anna, the goal was to learn to defend and fight back, not take Bunny out."
Anna blushed, "Riiiiight, but still if we can take out the captain of the royal guards, surely we can manage a few ruffians." Elsa sighed with relief knowing it was over, "I think we will handle things just fine." Narcissa glanced over at her, "Most definitely." Anna chimed in, "Besides, we have to get you ready for you date tonight!" hooking her arm with Narcissa. Narcissa blushed, "No, it's ok. I can manage." Elsa smiled and hooked her arm into Narcissa's other arm, "Oh come on, this is a big night for you. Neither Anna, or myself will let you do this alone." Narcissa tried to protest, but found herself being dragged to their chambers.
Once they reached Elsa's chambers, they all took turns getting cleaned up. Narcissa was last since they wanted her to look her best. Once she was cleaned up and in her undergarments, she came out with a little more help than she wanted to from Anna. Anna held up a dress, "I think this is just absolutely perfect." Narcissa glanced over the dress and Anna squealed behind her, "Oh Cissie, you are going to be so gorgeous for your knight in shining armor!" Narcissa turned to face her with a small blush to her cheeks, "Anna, we are just friends, and Cissie?"
Anna shrugged with a smile, "Just a little nickname I have you. And sure, you're just friends. You two may just end up kissing tonight." she teased. Elsa rolled her eyes, "Oh enough Anna, lets just help her finish getting ready." As they both helped her into a royal purple, calf length dress with off the shoulder short sleeves. Anna sat her down in the chair in front of the vanity while Elsa styled her hair. She had it in and up/down stlye and placed a diadem in her hair. Narcissa blushed again, "I really don't need a tiara or diadem girls." trying to take it off.
Anna scoffed moving her hands away, "Are you kidding Cissie? You are practically our sister now which makes you a princess, sort of." fixing the diadem in her hair. Narcissa just let her put it in, "Not by birth Anna." she reminded. Anna rolled her eyes, "Well you're a princess to me and Elsa. I don't care if not by birth." Narcissa giggled, she was glad to have Anna and Elsa as sisters to her. Elsa smiled, "There all finished." Narcissa glanced at her reflection, barely recognizing herself. Anna giggled with excitement, "Now you're ready for you date with Terrence." Elsa hugged her, "You will be just fine. You ready?" Narcissa nodded and they all went down stairs.
The boys were busy hanging out, talking and getting along very well. Terrence was obviously nervous, he had been on a date before, but this was much different. Was it because it was Narcissa? He did like her as a friend, but perhaps maybe just something more. He didn't want to rush things with her. He had a hunch something bad must have happened to her in the past. Kristoff patted his shoulder, "You'll be fine Terrence. I am without a doubt that everything will go great tonight." Terrence smiled, "I sure hope you're right Kristoff."
Elsa and ANna came out and stood at the top of the stairs, and cleared their throats, "May we present to you, Narcissa. She is all yours for tonight Terrence. But keep your hands to yourself and treat her right." Anna added, "Or else." Both of them wanring not to hurt their sister. Terrence nodded. Narcissa was nervous and didn't come out. Elsa sighed and went over to helped calm her down and lead her out. The moment she came out, Terrence felt his draw drop. He was in awe at how incredible and how beautiful she was.
Narcissa reached the floor and smiled, "You look handsome." He smiled and held his arm for her, "You look amazing. Are you ready for tonight?" She nodded, "I am." Terrence led them outside. Anna hugged Kristoff, "You have her back by 11 you hear me!" Kristoff covered her mouth as she squeaked, "Oh be quiet you. Let them have their fun." Anna pouted behind his large hand, and mumbled stuff. Kristoff sighed and removed his hand, "What love?" She grinned, "I was only teasing. Come on, lets go do something of our own." Kristoff felt himself dragged down the hall, "Like what?" Anna giggled, "Whatever comes to mind."
Jack laughed, "Those two were just made for each other." Elsa laughed as well, "That they are, but we need to follow them." Jack raised an eyebrow, "Follow whom exactly?" She motioned with her head the direction her sister ran off with Kristoff, "Those two. I guarentee Anna will get Kristoff to follow her wherever, and I know she is going to spy on Narcissa and Terrence. It's what she does when she's curious." walking after them. Jack rushed to keep up, "So you think she's followed us?" She shrugged, "Quite possibly. Why do you think I say behave." she winked. Jack smirked and tugged her to him, "I have been. Stop teasing me." She smiled up at him, "I have done so such thing Jack." pecking his lips before walking away.
Jack chuckled and followed after her, "Sure snowflake." Elsa spotted them up ahead, "See, what did I tell you." Jack snickered, "So we're spying on your sister, to stop from spying on Narcissa. That makes a whole lot of sense." Elsa nudged him, "Shh." Jack grunted from her elbow, "Okay, sheesh woman." peaking around her to see what she was looking at.
Terrence led them down to the meadow by the small pond. It was well lit up so they were able to see everything. Narcissa gasped, "You did all this?" He smiled at her, "I did, it's not too much is it? I wasn't sure what you would like, so I just prepared for anything." helping her sit down. She took her spot on the blanket, "It's just perfect. I cannot say I have ever been given such a kind offer before." Terrence took a spot next to her, but kept some space, "I don't see why you wouldn't. You are a kind young woman who deserves the same in return."
She felt her smile fade a little, he quickly apologized, "Forgive me, I didn't mean to upset you." She smiled for real, "It's fine Terrence. I am just learning to adjust to things like this. I have many years where no matter what, I was treated the opposite. I just learned to cope with that." Terrence frowned, "Narcissa, I don't know everything about your past, and I don't want you to tell me unless you are willing. Just know that whenever you are with me, I would never treat you any less. It does pain me to know that you lived like that for many years."
She nodded, "I know, and forgive me for bringing this up. Let us just enjoy the night. I cannot say I have looked forward to something like this in such a long time. I want to make the most of it." He smiled, "Alright, well then. Prepare to be amazed by my astounding sandwich making skills." he joked around. She giggled taking his offer of sandwiches, "Peanut butter and Jelly?" taking a small bite. He winked, "Don't hate until you've tried it." taking one for himself. She took another bite shaking her head, "I don't know Terrence, I may have had better." she teased. He grabbed his heart, "You wound me."
Unable to contain herself, she laughed, and she laughed hard. Terrence was right there laughing with her. She felt her sides hurt slightly, brushing away small tears that formed, "i cannot say I've laughed like that in a while as well." He smiled, "Then allow me to be the one to bring all your firsts back to life once more." She sighed, a smile still there, "I wouldn't mind that at all." taking another bite. He nodded, "Alright then, I shall make it so." as he finished his. He pulled out some cups and poured them each a drink, "I wasn't sure what to bring for drinks, but being a picnic, you can never go wrong with lemonade."
Narcissa took it and sipped it, "No you can't." He finished his cup and leaned back on the blanket, "So, tell me more about yourself. How did your day go? Mine was busy as usual with helping the town and all." She leaned on her arm, "Well, I had my afternoon training with Bunnymund. I can honestly say I am exhausted from that, but was well worth it." He looked up at her, "if you don't mind me asking, why the training with the princesses?" She sighed, "Well their father wanted us to be able to defend ourselves after Elsa was taken. A lot of bad things happened while there and no way of protecting ourselves much."
Terrence sat up, "I am sorry to hear. I think it's good for you to be training. I would hate to see anything bad happen to any of you. Especially you." She stared down at her hands, "Things happen and there isn't always a way to change that." He felt his hand reach for hers on instinct, "Narcissa, I am not sure why whoever it was hurt you the way they did, but know this, I would never do that to you." She smiled and grasped his hand, "I know Terrence. I do trust you." He smiled, "I'm glad to hear that. Now how about some chocolate for dessert. I was able to get chocolate covered strawberries." as he sat up to pull them out.
Narcissa smiled and gladly took one, "I wouldn't say no to that." taking a bite of hers. He grabbed one as well, "Hey I know a few ways to a woman's heart." he teased. She rolled her eyes playfully, "You will need more than this for that sort of thing." He chuckled, "Perhaps maybe for a small kiss." he teased again. She blushed, "Uh, maybe?" she felt herself saying.
"OH COME ON AND KISS HER ALREADY! OOOF!"
Both of them turned to see where the yell came from. Narcissa shook her head in embarrassment. Terrence laughed, "I don't think we are alone anymore." Narcissa sighed and laughed halfheartedly, "No, I don't think so either." He chuckled, "How about a small stroll before I have to get you back inside?" She nodded with a small smile, "I'd like that." as she got up along with him. They strolled through the rest of the way towards the castle with mindless chit chat. They reached the castle gates before pausing, "I guess this is where I have to say good night." he said glancing down at her. She nodded, "Yeah, I guess you're right. Though I wish we had more time."
He tilted her chin up, "Hey we can definitely do this again sometime soon. Plus we do have free time during our busy days, I am sure we can figure something out. I know I am willing." She smiled and nodded, "I would like that, very much." His thumb stroked her cheek, "Well I guess I shall bid you good night once more. Until I can see you again." She nodded, "Good night Terrence. Thank you again for tonight. It meant a lot to me." He smiled, "I am very glad. I would do anything to help make you happy." She felt butterflies in her stomach and they were fluttering like crazy. He chuckled lightly, "I think we are both scared, don't you agree?"
She nodded slowly, "I am...though I am tired of being afraid." He smiled, "Likewise." as he leaned down pressed his lips to hers gently. Her butterflies soon took flight. It wasn't long before he slowly pulled back, but she pushed forward not wanting to lose the feeling. For their first kiss with the other, it wasn't disappointing. It was soft, tender, and passionate. He pulled back after a moment, not wanting to push this any further, "Good night Narcissa." kissing her forehead gently. She sighed and felt her eyes flutter open, "Good night." as she pulled away from him to go back inside.
She couldn't help but smile, feeling completely happy for once. She brushed her fingers along her lips where his had been just seconds ago. She spotted Anna all covered in dirt and her hair messy bouncing into the room, "Yes! I knew it! WOO!" Kristoff came in behind her matching the same look as he tried to shush her. Narcissa rolled her eyes, "Good night you two." as she walked past them to her room. Kristoff face palmed his forehead, "Could you have been anymore embarrassing Anna?" She pouted, "You think I'm an embarrassment?" He rolled his eyes, "What do you think?" as he hoisted her over his shoulders. She squealed as he carried her up to her chambers, "Kristoff no fair, you're much stronger than me."
Jack and Elsa managed to make it back inside as well, but never did follow the rest of the way with Anna and Kristoff. Elsa glanced back at him, "I told you they went the other way." Jack shrugged, "My bad, it was kind of hard to see them once we left the gates." She rolled her eyes playfully, "Oh well, I am just glad the night went well for Narcissa. She deserved this." Jack smiled, "Same here. You turning in for the night?" She nodded, "Yeah, today's training was rough and long. I will see you in the morning Jack." kissing him before she went upstairs.
Narcissa made it to her room and changed from her dress to her nightgown. She decided to turn in for the night from exhaustion and wanting to remember Terrence as she fell asleep. Tonight was one of her favorite new memories she had made since she arrived in Arrendelle. She couldn't wait to see him again. She turned out her lights and fell asleep. After she was sound asleep, the black raven appeared in her room on her balcony. It transformed to human form again, Nyx now standing outside the window.
Using his magic he easily opened the latch and stepped in. He glanced down at her, "Oh my sweet, how long it has been since I have last seen you." his finger brushing a strand of hair aside. He waved some black sand across her face, she winced slightly, "I apologize my sweet, no sweet memories of that boy tonight." his hand clenching into a fist. He knelt down, pressed his lips to hers gently, "You belong to me Narcissa. Don't you forget that." as he pulled back. He glanced down at her, "I will see you around my sweet." as he transformed back into a raven and disappeared out the window.
Narcissa frowned before she tossed and turned in her sleep. Her memory of when Nyx almost claimed her brought back to life. She felt her heart racing as she remembered his touch and body against hers. Her body jerked forward as she gasped in freight. She clutched her blankets around her mouth to keep her from screaming out loud. She felt a few tears flow down her cheeks, "Nyx you bastard." she cried out.
Down the hall, Elsa was still reading her book when she heard Narcissa crying. She quickly got to her feet and ran down the hall to her room. She opened the door seeing Narcissa on the bed shaking, "Narcissa! What's wrong?" as she approached her. Elsa wrapped her arms around her, "It's him Elsa, Nyx has to be here. No one else besides you knows of this nightmare." Elsa just hugged her, "I'm here Narcissa, he's not going to hurt you anymore. I won't let him." Narcissa felt her hands go limp, "I am finally happy Elsa, and he's trying to take that away from me." She wiped her tears away, "He cannot take that away from you. Terrence will never let it happen either."
Narcissa sighed, "I know. He's just so wonderful Elsa, I don't want to lose this." Elsa hugged her, "He's not going anywhere. Now how about we get some sleep. I can stay here with you tonight like old times." Narcissa smiled faintly, "I would like that." as she moved over to make room. Elsa climbed into the bed facing her, "Good night Narcissa." taking her hand into hers. Narcissa gripped hers in return, "Good night Elsa." as the two fell asleep.
