The next day in the morning....

Queen Lyra and Erik are preparing their stuff into the chariot along with other viking entourage. Elsa are still with her family.

"Are you sure you are okay with this dear? It could be dangerous there." Said Iduna worried for Elsa that she wants to go to Bjarneyjar.

"I'm definitely sure mother. Besides I'm not going there alone. I'm going with Erik, the man that choose to be my husband. If he's willingly to come here to Arendelle, then I'm willingly to go to his birthplace. It's only fair that way".

"Be careful out there Elsa. Viking kingdom is very dangerous. They're quite vicious. I trust Erik and Lyra for your safety. If anything happen, send us a message through Gale". Said Agnarr worried.

"Most definitely father. Im sure im going to be alright. I have my powers to protect me remember? If anything happen i send you a message" assures Elsa.

"I still don't trust that viking sis. He seems so shady. Remember what he did the first time we met him? He's so arrogant and rude. Are sure you want him to be your husband?" Ask Anna.

"I remember well of that occasion. But this is the time to know him well on why he acted like that. I will give him a chance and if anything happen i will come back here as fast as i could." Explain Elsa then she hug everyone one including Olaf.

"Alright. Everything's all settled. You can board the carriage Princess Elsa" said the viking guard. Elsa bow down to him and say goodbye to her family and people. She enters the carriage sitting next to Erik that took up half the space cause of his large built. His mother and her guard are sitting Infront of them facing each other.

"Sorry for the little space. He is quite, large as you can see" said Lyra for Elsa's inconvenience. "It's okay you majesty. I understand. A man with this built is quite rare in this era so it's quite shocking for me." Said Elsa.

Erik just staring at the window lost in his thoughts through the journey. So much things that are running in his mind. About his future with Elsa, their safety, his kingdom and everything else. He doesn't want to lose another loved ones.

"Erik...Erik." his mother calls him. Erik hears his mother called him and snaps himself from his thoughts. "Yes mother?" Ask him. "Something wrong? You are so quite the entire time. Is something bothering you?" Ask his mother.

"N- no no. Im fine. I'm just lost in thoughts. That's all. Hehehe" explain him. "Well it's not nice ignoring a woman when she's sitting right next to you. A beautiful one also. She's eagerly want to have a chat with you"."Ohh. I'm sorry for that Elsa" apologies Erik. "No it's okay Erik" said Elsa with a sweet smile while lamented his eyes with her blue sparkling eyes.

Erik blush after making an eye contact with her. Apparently her blue eyes are too beautiful for him. "Ahemm. Soo... What did like to do in you free time, Elsa?" Ask him to hide his blushing.

"I like reading books. I feel very relaxing when I'm reading. It's just giving me the comfort. I feel very immersed for the book and make me feels depending on the book. Besides that i love to cook. I like watching everyone like the food that i cook. It give me the satisfaction that I can't explain" said Elsa.

"You love cooking? Well he is very lucky to meet you. He loves to eat. Especially steak and burger. You know what they say, if you want to keep your man happy, start with the belly. If there's one thing he can't resist, that is strawberry cake. He like them so much that he eat them almost every day for two weeks. " said Layra. Then they both laugh a little.

"Mother! Don't tell her that. It's embarrassing" said Erik to his mother. "Oh please Erik. She's the one that will make them for you for the next two weeks straight. Better she knows now than later, am i right Elsa?" Ask Lyra to Elsa. Elsa laughs a little and reply to her "Most definitely you Majesty".

"Elsa~ spare me the title. You can just call me mother or mom if you please. You're gonna be in this family after all". Elsa appalled by the statement including Erik. She definitely doesn't hate the idea but she just felt too early to call her that afraid that she's also uncomfortable being called that.

"Mother. It is too early for that. Stop pressing her too hard. She feels uncomfortable. Besides we don't really if she wants to be my wife yet". Said Erik with a quit stern tone.

"Why? You don't want her to be your wife?" Tease Lyra. Erik stutters,"O- of course i...want. But after this maybe she don't" said Erik with slight sad tone.

Elsa just smiles hearing what he said. She holds his hand and said, "Yes mother." Then she rest her head on his shoulder.
