Winters Revenge

Chapter Forty-The Teddy Talk.

Location: The Institute Kitchen/ The Green Room.   Time: 11.15AM.

Elsa was quite she didn't know how to respond as her heart thumped loudly against her chest, the mere thought of being alone with someone other than Jack made her stomach drop into a thousand pieces. She felt Jacks fingers playing with hers under the table as she broke out of of her thoughts hearing his voice whispering beside her with caution.

Jack "Are you okay going alone with him?" He whispered as his heart thumped loudly against his chest.

Elsa "I should probably go alone." She replied in a hush tone.

Jack "Are you sure your comfortable?" He asked reassuringly.

Elsa "Yeah I should be fine, if I do need you I'll shout or something." She says.

Elsa turns to face Teddy who was stood waiting for an answer to his question.

Teddy "So is it cool if we have a chat?" He says.

Elsa "Sure." She says getting up from the seat and tucking it underneath the table.

Teddy "Is it alright if we go to the Green room?" He asks.

Elsa "Yeah it's fine." She follows him out the room leaving Anna and Jack alone in the kitchen.

Anna "Don't worry she'll be back soon." She chuckled to herself.

Jack "And why would I be bothered if she wasn't?" He asked the blush spreading over his cheeks.

Anna "It's so obvious that you two are dating or something is going on." She giggled.

Jack blushed brightly at her comment looking down at the coffee mug he had been holding onto with his other hand. He took a sip of the hot liquid hoping Elsa would be all right and his heart dropped knowing she wasn't sat right beside him, he had so many questions for her, yet they weren't alone.... yet.

Meanwhile Elsa and Teddy had made their way to the Green room as they took a seat on the comfortable sofas. Elsa kept her distance as she took a seat she could see Teddy was nervous and so was she. She continued to play with the sleeve of the jumper Jack had borrowed her. Teddy brushed his fingers through his blonde hair as he tried to speak.

Teddy "I just wanted to apologise to you about the whole situation that happened I know you were angry about it, but I hope you can now understand where we were coming from." He smiled weakly his heart racing.

Elsa "I was angry and now .... I do get why you did what you did." She smiled at him.

Teddy "So you forgive me?"

Elsa "Yes Teddy I forgive you don't worry.... And besides, you did the right thing getting me out of there...."

Teddy "I'm glad that you agree." He smiled.

Elsa smiled back at him as she saw that he had relaxed at her words of agreement.

Teddy "So how are you finding it here?" He asked.

Elsa "It's a lot different but, I guess you know that already."

Teddy "You can say that again. But as long as your all-right Elsa that's all I'm concerned about." He rolled his eyes.

Elsa "I'll get there don't worry." She smiled looking down at the jumper she was still playing with.

Teddy "As long as you know you can come to me anytime you need anything".

Elsa "I'll be sure to." She smiled looking up.

Teddy "Okay come on I'll get you back to those two troublemakers in there." He giggled slightly.
