~TOOTH~

Bittersweet. That's the only word to describe what I'm feeling. A bittersweet type of pain. I knew they'd become more than friends eventually. I knew something had happened between the two of them on Halloween. I knew this would happen even before Elsa and I had our talk in the bathroom that night during Mavis's party. Jack's eyes just...light up differently when he's with Elsa. And yet…Despite knowing of the connection they have, despite knowing that it's more than platonic, seeing him kiss her hurts. It hurts me so much. I can literally feel my heart shattering into pieces and sharply falling into the pit of my stomach.

But at the same time...I'm happy. Truly, deeply, genuinely happy. They're perfect for each other. I can't deny that. They're like puzzle pieces that fit together so...perfectly. Perfect, perfect, perfect. So yes, while I am sad to see him kiss her, proving to all of us what we've suspected for so long, I'm not as sad as I always thought I'd be at the sight.

I had imagined them doing couple-like things together for a long while, to prepare myself for when it would happen in real life, and to be honest, I think it worked. Because seeing him lock lips with her...well...it's not all that sad. The pain isn't excruciating like I always thought it would be, but it still stings just a little, which is to be expected.

Of course, I'm going to hurt a little bit. I've been in love with him for years.

But knowing that he got the girl, the only girl he's ever shown interest in, well, as I said, it makes me happy. Jack deserves everything he could ever want. He deserves Elsa, and she deserves him. They deserve each other.

I just hope neither one breaks the other's heart.

Because a broken heart…

It's a different kind of pain.

~BUNNY~

I knew her heart was breaking. It's been broken ever since she became aware of Jack's obvious crush on Elsa. But I know that her seeing him kissing Elsa is a slap to the face, bringing her out of her fantasies and into reality. A reality in which Jack isn't hers and never will be. A reality that reminds me that Tooth will never be mine as well.

Yeah, that's right. I like her. I've liked her for a long while now. But I can't pursue anything because 1) she's always made it known that she loves Jack, and 2) I have the same issue as she does.

Adoption.

North is our adopted father, though he is more like a grandfather to us. That makes her my "sister" and Jack my "nephew". That longing, that desire, that she has had for years...I know exactly what that feels like. And though I may not know the extent of her pain right now, seeing her hurting does in fact hurt me as well.

Unrequited love sucks, but it hurts even more when that special person gets a person of their own.

A person who is not you.

I reached for her hand and gave it a comforting squeeze. She looks up at me then, her eyes locking with mine, and silently telling me, I'm okay.

She sends me a small smile and squeezes my hand. I expected her to let go, but she kept holding on, and so I did too.

One day you'll find someone who will love you unconditionally, Tooth.

And while I'm not ready for that someone to arrive, I am ready for her to not feel the pain she is feeling now.

Pain that I will one day feel myself at a much stronger level.

Because like I said, unrequited love sucks, it hurts, but when Tooth finds someone who feels the same about her as she does them? That's going to hurt me a whole lot more.

~ANNA~
Ohmygod ohmygod ohmygod ohmygod ohmygod! No! Freaking! WAY! I knew it! I freaking knew it! I knew something was going on between the two of them. I knew there was chemistry there! I knew they were crushing on each other! I just...I knew it! When it comes to love, I just know these things. I've read and watched plenty of books and movies to know what signs to look for.

In the beginning, she wanted nothing to do with Jack. At first, I thought it was because she just didn't like him. Now that her little secret has been revealed to me, I know it's because she knew he was the boy from that night and was afraid that he remembered her too (which I've learned that he did) and she was also afraid that her secret would come out, which that did too. Although that happened in an entirely different situation.

And I just find it all so cute. She wants nothing to do with him, later grows closer with him, they flirt around a lot, then boom! Here they are! Kissing! From low-key enemies to friends to flirts to lovers. I'm going to explode from joy!

Oh but don't get me wrong, I am indeed extremely jealous, which I always knew I would be when it came to Elsa or Rapunzel having a boyfriend before me or, as of late, one who's not like Hans, BUT my jealousy is definitely not as big as my happiness. I love love, so seeing Elsa experience her first kiss (or what I assume is her first kiss) is an honor. Ya know, most siblings would be grossed out, but I find it so cute and sweet.

Especially since I thought she'd be alone forever.

Haha, I mean that in the nicest way possible. Elsa never had any interest in romance or dating. I honestly never imagined her being with anyone. Just herself. So this is definitely a nice surprise. Though really should I even call it that? I saw it coming from a mile away. She and Jack were pretty much a couple waaay before. Their moments together, especially like the one on the Ferris Wheel, were total couple material.

And now, I can finally say that my ship is canon! Hell yeah!

~KRISTOFF~

Well, it's about damn time. Not gonna lie, I'm a bit jealous of Jack's bravery. If I had his boldness, I'd be kissing Anna right now, but...I can't. She doesn't feel like that towards me, and honestly I don't even know when I started feeling such things for her. They just kind of...came out of nowhere, ya know? I especially shouldn't just pick her up and kiss her since things with her and Hans are still fresh. Anna doesn't need a new romance right now. She needs to focus on herself and her family. Plus there's school. Education and family, plus friends too I guess, is what she needs. Not another boyfriend. And even if she did want another boyfriend right now, there's no way I'd be a candidate. I'm probably the last person she'd ever want to date.

But just like Anna likes to do, I'll imagine it. I'll imagine that it's her and I kissing passionately instead of her sister and Jack.

My grandfather and other family members always say, "Never say never." So maybe, just maybe, Anna will give me a chance one day. Unfortunately, that day is not today. Honestly, that day may never come, but until then, if it does…

I'll stay in my imagination and imagine it.

~FLYNN~

Well, I'll be damned. He did it. He actually kissed her. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm actually very proud of the asshole. Don't get me wrong, I was proud of him and Kristoff's win tonight, but seeing how he spun Elsa around and is kissing her right in front of everyone with no shame, it's admirable. Really. I truly mean that.

Although not gonna lie, it kinda makes me feel ashamed that it wasn't me who kissed Rapunzel first during the kiss cam session. Don't get me wrong (again), I love it when girls make the first move, it doesn't hurt my masculinity at all, but I always imagined it would be me who would make the first move when it came to little miss Blondie.

I still don't believe that kiss even happened. Like holy hell! I keep thinking I imagined it, like all the other times I had. I was expecting her to kiss my cheek like how the others did, so when she went straight for the lips, it literally took my breath away. My whole brain shut down, malfunctioning like crazy, but it didn't take long to come back alive and kiss her back once I realized that it was really happening.

And then she pulls one of Astrid's bullshit answers.

"Tradition."

Like...what the fuck?

First, she wants me to make fake IDs so I can take her to this adult lantern festival, a rebellious side of her I didn't know existed, and now she's kissing me like it's no big deal in the concept of "tradition".

This just doesn't seem like her at all. Maybe everything that's happening with her cousins and with her knowledge of my secret life is causing her to act out as a way to distract herself or gain some kind of control? Or maybe I don't know her as well as I thought I did? Or maybe I'm overthinking everything because I simply can't accept the idea that she kissed me because she actually has feelings for me.

I mean come on, I know I'm handsome and charming and all that sweet jazz, but...I'm not boyfriend material. I'm not...good for her. Doesn't she know that? Doesn't she know she can do better? That she deserves better? Plus, she's rich and I'm not. We may be graduating together, but I don't fit or reach her social status at all. I'm not...one of her people.

If she has genuine feelings for me, which a part of me low-key hopes she does (that kiss kind of confirms that she does) but if she has feelings for me...I have to bring an end to them.

I have to.

I don't want to, because, for God's sake, I've been wanting her love for a long while now, and now that I finally got it, I don't ever want to let her go, but...it's too dangerous. I'm too dangerous. She's already tangled in too much by knowing my secrets. If I were to pursue anything with her, it could make her a target. As I said, she's rich, and the men I work with and work for, love money.

And they'll do anything to get it.

Heh...it's weird. We've known each other for four years, but have only actually grown closer these past few months. I always thought she had a thing for Jack, which is why I never really talked that much to her, only having small talk here and there, so never would I have ever have dreamed of us being close friends, and never would I have ever guessed that she'd fall for my charm and that I'd fall for her.

I never guessed that I'd tell her about my secret life and her willingly keep it a secret either.

Everything that has unfolded recently has definitely been unexpected, and to be honest, I'm still pissed off about not sending the crown back anonymously. If I had just ignored the guilt I felt that night when I had unintentionally kidnapped Hans, ignored the desire to return the crown in-person to lessen some of my guilt, Rapunzel would be in a much safer situation. I only did it in person because I wanted to get it over with as soon as possible.

Because let's face it, now that she knows so much, she's at risk. All because I couldn't handle the guilt anymore. All because I couldn't say no or lie to her anymore. All the guilt, which has been building up for years from all of my heists, reached its limit that night, and I just...I just couldn't hold it in anymore. The light that shines from her...God, it made it so easy to just...release, to tell it all.

It was a mistake though. A big, big mistake. Hell, this morning, when I saw Astrid's aunt lead Rapunzel and her cousins to her cruiser outside, I honestly thought the police had found out about me somehow, and I won't lie, I was scared.

Not for me, but for them. For her.

And as much as I want to ask her if she had spilled the tea about me, I know better. I know she didn't. Plus, I can see her getting offended and angry if I did ask such a thing. Because of course, she wouldn't. It would be a stupid question to ask. She had promised she wouldn't, and I believe her. She always keeps her word. Always.

As do I. Well, sometimes, but with her, always.

And I promise to anyone who is listening that I will do everything in my power to protect her.

Even if it costs me my life.

~RAPUNZEL~

Ohmygod ohmygod ohmygod ohmygod ohmygod! They're kissing! Finally! Best day ever! Well, actually, I take that back. This morning really sucked, but it's not too bad now. We got to spend the rest of the day at home, are currently spending some time with friends, Jack and Kristoff won their first game of the season, I kissed Flynn, and now Jack is kissing Elsa.

Oh yeah...I kissed Flynn.

I kissed Flynn.

! Flynn!

The Flynn Rider!

I don't know what possessed me to do it. Maybe it's because I'm hella stressed out with having to harbor his secrets and because Hans is "missing" and that my cousins and I are suspects in his disappearance. And because of such stress, I took it upon myself to do the one thing I knew would give me pure serotonin. I saw the opportunity and I took it. It's going to change things between us even more, but hey...everything is changing a lot lately. What's wrong with a little more?

I just hope that maybe they change for the better? That maybe he got the hint that I like him a lot? And oh my god, when he kissed me back, so deeply and passionately...that was enough to tell me that he likes me too! Or maybe I'm just reading too much into it? Oh, I really hope not.

And wow! Kissing is definitely not what I thought it would be. It is so much better! His lips were so smooth and warm and ugh! Seeing Jack kiss Elsa makes me wanna just grab Flynn's collar again and kiss him until he passes out. But no...until I know where he and I stand, I think it's best if I don't do that again.

But oh do I sooooo want to.

Anyway, back to Jack and Elsa.

It's crazy how they first met when they were 10 years old. Not even I knew that until Elsa spilled the beans on everything that day in the hospital. They knew each other two years prior to the accident. I find it cute how in Elsa's tale, Jack was covered in a long coat that reached the floor, and was covered in scarves, gloves, and a winter hat. The only thing to see being his eyes. And then here comes the accident two years later when she meets him again, and then six years later here they are once more, wrapped in each other's lives again-or rather wrapped in each other's arms.

Okay, technically, Elsa is standing stiff as a board, probably in shock, which, now that I think about it, isn't a good sign, and my eyes widen

Oh no, Jack you idiot! If this is Elsa's first kiss then I know she definitely wouldn't want it to be in front of a whole lot of people, because not only is our friend group staring but so are some people walking by. My kiss with Flynn was my first kiss too (and it was so freaking amazing!), but unlike Elsa, I don't mind the crowd and staring eyes. Elsa, however, someone I know very well, is not going to like this. Not one bit.

I've been wanting them to kiss forever, but now I'm really wishing he had waited for a private setting.

Oh Jack, you better hope she doesn't react the way I think she will…

~OLAF~

Oh wow! So that's happening. Everyone sure loves to kiss around here. Neat.

~MOANA, MAUI, MERIDA, HICCUP, ASTRID'S POV~

It's about damn time!

~ELSA~

To say his kiss took me by surprise would be an understatement, but I was quick to melt into it. I've been wanting this, desiring his lips, since the last time they were on mine. However, I couldn't enjoy the feeling because I'm quick to remember my surroundings (I have to be), and so I force myself back, staring at him in disbelief and betrayal.

He knew I didn't want us to go public yet. He knew I wanted to keep us a secret, so we could enjoy our time together without anyone prying into our business. He knew and promised me, gave me his word...and now he just broke it. He kissed me in front of our friends, who I know must be in complete shock or delight, especially my sister and cousin.

I don't need to look over at them to know. I couldn't find the strength to turn my head anyway. Partially from embarrassment and partially because I want Jack to see the hurt and betrayal in my eyes. Which, according to the worry I could detect in them, he saw very clearly.

"Elsa-"

"I can't believe you did that," I hiss, low enough for only him to hear. "You knew I didn't want anyone to know yet. Why did you do that?"

"I…" He starts, but I don't give him the chance to finish because I take off, in the opposite direction of our friends so I don't have to face them or any of the other people who took notice. "Elsa, wait!"

I need fresh air. I need space. I need to be alone. But I didn't get far at all because Jack's hand is wrapped around my wrist, stopping me. I flinch, remembering my encounter with Hans, and yell "NO! STOP!" Which definitely caught everyone's attention.

I look around me, making eye contact with so many people, and making eye contact with my friends, who still stood where they were before, looking worried. Anna was a step or two in front, probably trying to chase after me, but Rapunzel, who stood behind her, has her hand on Anna's shoulder, probably the one who stopped her. I'm thankful that they're trying to give us at least some kind of privacy and space.

Even though I don't want to be in Jack's presence at all right now.

Jack lets go immediately, surprised by my reaction. "I...I'm sorry. I didn't mean to grab you like that. I…" the sadness in his eyes began to make me feel guilty. "I was just happy and wanted...I don't know...to celebrate. I've been worried about you all day and I just...seeing you and actually being at your side...it was a heat of the moment thing-

"Well I am not a celebration tool-" I spat, angry that he couldn't have just held it together until we were in private.

"And I was jealous-"

"Of what?!" I interrupt, taken off guard. Because what on earth does he have to be jealous over?

"Of your kiss with Olaf."

This causes a bitter laugh out of me. You have got to be kidding me. Olaf, the same boy who I told Jack all about, the same boy who I told him is like a brother to me, the same boy who he has nothing to worry about, the same boy who I kissed on the cheek.

"It was a harmless kiss on the cheek, Jack," I explained, frustrated. "A harmless kiss that a sibling would give another. And now because of you everyone knows about us, something I didn't want-"

"Why? Why is anyone knowing about us really that big of a deal to you?" He asks, his voice rising, to the point where I know the others are able to hear.

"Because for once," I raised my voice as well, no longer in control of myself, "I wanted to have something just for myself. Something that no one else knew about. Something that wouldn't catch the attention of so many people, so many eyes, always staring, always in my business."

My eyes are filling with tears now and my hands are shaking. "So much is going on right now, Jack," I whisper, trying not to sob at the decision I just made. "I'm tired and struggling and...until I get things figured out...I-I need to focus and…I think it's best if we…" But I couldn't bring myself to say it.

Because I don't want it. Not really.

But...I have to be smart and responsible about this.

I have to.

He can't be with me when I have all these issues going on, both situational and...mental. He deserves better than that.

"If we what, Elsa?" Jack asks, his eyes showing fear.

I inhale deeply and force myself to say, "I think it's best if we take a break."
