Elsa couldn't shake off the feeling of gratitude towards Jack. His presence had brought light and joy into her life, and she wanted to show him how much she appreciated him. Determined to express her gratitude, she pondered on what gesture would make him feel special and loved.

Suddenly, a memory sparked in her mind. Jack had often told her stories about the cupcakes her parents used to make for him and his sister. A smile formed on her lips as she realized that baking cupcakes for Jack would be the perfect gesture. She hurriedly made her way to the kitchen, eager to begin.

In the kitchen, Elsa skillfully mixed the ingredients, savoring the sweet aroma that filled the room. She carefully decorated the cupcakes with vanilla icing, each one a reflection of her love and appreciation for Jack. As she admired her creations, she couldn't help but feel a sense of pride.

With the cupcakes ready, Elsa set off to find Jack, eager to present him with her heartfelt gift. She spotted his distinctive white hair in the dining area and felt her heart flutter with anticipation. However, before she could approach, she heard laughter—a melodic sound that made her hesitate. She discreetly peeked into the room and saw Tooth playfully feeding Jack a slice of red velvet cake.

Elsa's heart sank as she watched Jack's delighted expression. She couldn't help but compare her simple cupcakes to Tooth's culinary prowess. Doubt crept into her mind, making her question whether her gesture was enough. Disheartened, she silently retreated, placing the cupcakes on the counter in the kitchen.

Meanwhile, Jack, unaware of Elsa's presence, was searching for her. He asked the palace staff for her whereabouts, and one of them mentioned that she had been in the kitchen. Curiosity piqued, he made his way there, hoping to find her and see what she had been up to.

When Jack arrived in the kitchen, he was met with a sight that both tempted and puzzled him—beautifully decorated cupcakes. They were his favorite, but he hesitated, assuming they belonged to someone else. However, before he could leave, Kai, who had witnessed Elsa's gesture, approached him with a knowing smile.

"Hey, Jack. Those cupcakes Elsa made, they taste amazing," Kai said with a mischievous twinkle in his eyes.

Jack's eyes widened in surprise. "Wait, Elsa made those for me?" he asked, his voice tinged with disbelief.

Kai nodded, explaining the situation. Jack's shock turned into a mix of excitement and appreciation. He couldn't believe that Elsa had gone through the effort of baking cupcakes just for him.

Determined to find her, Jack continued his search until he finally discovered Elsa in the study room, engrossed in her work. He knocked on the door and entered, his eyes filled with affection as he saw her.

Elsa paused, caught off guard by Jack's sudden presence. Her heart skipped a beat, and a smile graced her lips.

"Hey, Elsa," Jack greeted, a soft smile on his lips. "How was your day?"

Elsa's cheeks flushed slightly as she replied, "It was busy, as usual. But seeing you now makes it better. How about yours?"

Jack took a seat across from her, leaning in slightly. "Well, my day just got a lot more interesting," he said with a playful wink. "But I have to ask, what happened to those cupcakes you made?"

Elsa hesitated, unsure if she should admit her jealousy and doubts. However, Jack's insistence and genuine concern compelled her to explain what had transpired. She recounted her initial joy in making the cupcakes, only to be deflated by the sight of Tooth's cake. She confessed her insecurities, afraid that her gesture hadn't been enough.

Jack chuckled softly, his eyes filled with adoration. He reached across the table, gently taking her hand in his.

"Elsa, you have no idea how much I appreciate everything you do for me. Your cupcakes, the thought behind them, it means the world to me. You have a way of making even the simplest things extraordinary."

Elsa's eyes softened, her doubts slowly melting away. "You really mean that?"

Jack nodded, a warm smile on his face. "Absolutely. I love your cupcakes, but more than that, I love everything you do for me. It's the intention and love behind it that truly matters."

Elsa's heart fluttered at his words, a wave of warmth washing over her. She realized that her actions, no matter how small, held significance to him. She realized that Jack's love for her went beyond material gestures, and Jack was reminded once again of how lucky he was to have Elsa in his life.

They continued to talk, their conversation transitioning into flirtatious banter, their connection growing stronger with every shared moment.

They savored the cupcakes together, laughter and affection filling the study room. In that afternoon, they discovered that love was not about grand gestures or comparisons, but rather about the genuine care and appreciation they had for each other. Their bond grew deeper as they shared the cupcakes and the sweet moments of their hearts intertwined.
