A/N: Iām so sorry for taking so long between the updates. Like some of you know Iāve been in the hospital. But now Iām out! I hope youāll enjoy this chapter!
Prisoner of your body CH 3
When his lips met mine, I choked on air. The feeling of disgust washing over me. Now he was dragging me all over the castle until we were outside, Sven waiting patiently by the stairs.
"Hi buddy!", Kristoff half yelled, petting the reindeer. Earning a massive lick in his face.
"Anna, Iām taking you somewhere nice. But we need Sven to get there, so jump on!", Kristoff said, patting the space on Svenās back.
I could feel the panic creeping up on me. I wasnāt even good at riding horses. Riding Sven would be the death of me.
"Anna, whatās wrong? Youāve been riding Sven before!"
'Crap, act cool⦠Conceal, don't feel⦠Conceal, don't feelā¦'
Before I knew it, Kristoff had threw me up in Svenās back, making me sit bridal style. My balance wasnāt the best. I ended up falling backwards, landing hard on my bum.
"Seriously feisty pants, youāre utterly clumsy today", Kristoff said with a laugh.
'At least being clumsy won't be that hard. I can do this'
I managed to jump up on Svenās back again, pulling my spring green dress up for my legs to be on either side of Svenās shoulders. I grabbed as much as I could of his fur so I wouldnāt fall off again. Sven grunted in surprise.
'I guess this is what I get for being locked inside of my room for 13 yearsā¦'
Kristoff took me to the lake by the forest. There was a small beach hidden by some willows. It was beautiful. I immediately felt sorry for him. Anna was the one to truly experience this, not me.
I simply stood there, my arms folded over my chest in a nervous behavior. Did I have to kiss him? Or tell him how good he is? How did Anna treat him? Did they even kiss? Have they had sex?
For some reason I felt slightly jealous.
'Wait what? Jealous?!'
Kristoff folded out a blanket on the white sand, patting the space beside him.
As soon as I was seated beside him, his arm was immediately on my back, drawing invincible circles.
"Have you talked to Elsa yet?", he questioned with a voice soft like honey.
I swallowed the lump in my throat.
āTalked about what?ā
"You know, about her blessing?"
'Oh my god! They're getting married?!'
I tried not act surprised, Kristoff didnāt seem to notice.
āOh, right! No, I havenāt. We have only dated for a week now. I think itās better to wait a little longerā
"Maybe youāre right. The last time you introduced a guy to her, well⦠It didnāt end so well. Itās okay Anna, I can wait.", he said and kissed me on my cheek. I immediately stiffened.
"Anna, youāre acting strange. Is something wrong?"
"I-Iām⦠Iām not feeling so well"
"Should I take you back to the castle? You have to attend on a meeting today with Elsa. You should rest until then"
"Yes, please. Thank you."
āāāāāāāāāāāāāā
Back at the castle I hurried inside to look for Anna. I wondered if she froze anything while I was gone.
I finally found her in the library, playing chess with Kai.
"Your highness, I thought you were out with the reindeer boy?", Kai asked me. It felt weird being called your highness instead of your majesty.
"Oh? Yes, my apologies. I didnāt feel so well so I came back earlier"
"You talk different princess Anna, did Elsa teach you some manners?"
'Seriously, I can't even talk like Anna'
"Um⦠Yeah, some mannersā¦"
"You did a good job, your majesty", Kai said, turning his gaze to Anna.
"Oh. Of course. I thought it would be fitting now when sheās going to assist me on the upcoming meetings"
"Your parents wouldāve been so proud of you. Both of you."
We both smiled at him in return.
I turned my gaze to the clock on the wall, letting out a breath I didnāt know I was holding. It was three more hours until the meeting. That would be enough of time for preparations.
"Iām sorry Kai, but is it okay if I borrow my sister for a while?", I asked and tried not to sound so formal.
"Of course, your highness. You two must have much to talk about for the meeting. Iāll leave you two alone."
As soon as Kai had left the room, Anna let out a heavy sigh.
"I tried my best while we were playing chess. But he kept knocking my pieces out."
"Anna, you have to be careful. Kai rarely wins over me in chess."
"Oh, maybe thatās why he kept asking me if I was alright⦠Oh my god, Elsa. You donāt think he suspects anything, do you?"
"I sure hope he doesnāt"
I could feel the temperature in the room dropping. Something weird happened to my skin.
"Anna, what is this?!", I gestured to the weird bumps on my arms.
"Elsa, thatās goosebumps. You get those of youāre feeling cold."
"Oh⦠I guess I finally got to know how it feels to actually feeling cold."
That stung me, it really hurt. All my life I never knew how it felt to get cold, or get frost bitten. All my life I was the one controlling the power of ice. But I never had a thought of not being human. What was I? A monster? A freak? Or maybe both?
"Elsa, Iām sorry! I didnāt mean it like that!"
"Itās okay Anna, you donāt have to apologize. Iām a monster. A freak of nature. I was born with a curse. I-"
"No! Elsa! No! All I meant is that youāre like a goddess. Youāre the most beautiful person Iāve ever seen. You have a heart of gold. I donāt care if that makes you less human, because to me youāre the most precious and beautiful thing in the entire world!"
She stepped forward, grabbing my hands. Her hands were cold against my warmer ones. I searched her face for any lies, but Iāve never seen someone looking at me like she was looking at me right now. It made my heart skip beats.
"You really mean all of that?"
"Every word. I love you, Elsa."
There it was. That tingling feeling in the pit of my stomach. That burning sensation inside of my core. I could feel the heat slowly creeping up my neck, making my cheeks rosy. Suddenly I didnāt feel the cold anymore. For the very first time, I was warm.
"I love you too, Anna.", I said and squeezed her hands.
She watched me with dreamy eyes. They looked almost cloudy. What did this mean? Were sisters supposed to look at each other like this? Was it normal to have your heart leap into your throat every time she smiled at you? No, this wasnāt normal. This is not okay.
"Elsa. Iāve been thinking."
'Oh, dear god⦠Thinking the same as I'm thinking?'
"Can you please take me to the place where you used to learn to control your powers?"
'Oh, thank God! Wait, what?!'
"You want to learn to control my powers? Anna, that could be dangerous!"
"Donāt be silly! Isnāt it better than me freezing the entire room at the meeting later?"
She had a point. A very good point. Sheās so smart. I sometimes wonder if sheās even smarter than me.
"Very well. Iāll take you to the secret garden."
āāāāāāāāāāāā
"Um⦠Elsa? Is your training the reason to why all the flowers always dies?"
"It can be the reason, yes. But now, concentrate and use your imagination. Try to create what you have in mind."
Anna took a few steps away from me. Her hands making circling moves, creating a small snowball. I figured she mustāve learned that from me.
Anna threw the snowball into the air, making it snow. I immediately regretted that I didnāt take my cloak on. I was starting to feel cold again.
"Anna, Iām going inside to get my-"
Before I could finish my sentence, I was interrupted by a snowball hitting me straight in the face.
"Aw, something wrong Elsa? Is the cold finally bothering you anyway?"
I couldnāt stay mad when I saw her teasing smile. I grabbed a handful of snow, kneading it between my hands.
"Oh, Anna. Youāre going to regret this!", my smile mirroring her teasing one.
Anna started I run away and I chased after her. While she was running she was creating an icy path behind her. It was slippery, but I managed to stay on my feet.
Suddenly she stopped and turned around, letting her arms out to catch me. But I was sliding too fast and that sent us both flying to the ground, me on top of her.
We were laughing so hard our stomachs hurt and when I finally looked down on her, my heart stopped beating. Our faces were just inches apart, I could feel her breath on my lips. Our laughing died out.
We just laid there, staring into each otherās eyes. Then Annaās eyes gazed on my lips and she slowly say up on her elbows, making her lips almost touching mine.
"Anna⦠W-what are you d-doing?"
"I think Iām about to kiss you, my queen."
And just like that, it was out in the open. The air suddenly felt too heavy to breathe in. Everything else disappeared around us. If anyone of us moved, we would do the unspeakable. Thatās forbidden. We both knew, but did we really care?
"Then kiss me, my princess", I said and I could feel her leaning in. Her lips were brushing against mine and-
"Your majesty? Your highness?"
In surprise I jumped off Anna, brushing some snow off of my dress.
"Oh, hi Kai! We were just practicing", Anna let out.
"Iām sorry to bothering you but the king and queen of corona is here."
"Thank you, send them to the office."
"Very well, your majesty."
I still couldnāt speak a single word. And without saying anything, we both headed to the office.
