"So what do you actually know about this mysterious person." I ask looking around, making sure that no one was looking our way. "Well first of all she is a girl and she's most likely not working alone."

"Do you think they come to our school?"

"Yeah and I think they're in your grade, it would make sense because they're targeting you. But, I honestly don't know any much more than that. " He says sighing.

"No, I think we can definitely work with this." I said taking another sip from my coffee. "What will be our plan anyways?"

"I don't know..." i began as i looked down, "... But we have to find out her objective. Maybe she likes Hiccup or Jack." That could be very possible.

When I looked back up I found Flynn staring at me. "What?"
"Oh sorry, it's just... So, Elsa who do you like?"
I was taken aback by his sudden question, "Huh?"

"You do like one of them don't you?"He asked completely serious. "I don't think this is the time for that..." I say. "I guess your right. But maybe things would be easier if you at least chose one." He said pushing his coffee cup aside.

"Yeah, I know..." I sighed, knowing how much my indecesiveness has lead to problems. "Then, why don't we?" He said tilting his head, smiling all but knowingly. "What are you talking about?"

"You know, let's see where your feelings lie." He said continuing to smile. "Wouldn't that cause more drama!?" I asked flabbergasted.
Flynn chuckled, "Elsa, sit down." Ah. I stood up, I nodded and took my seat. "But I'm not joking we should."

"Flynn!" I exclaimed feeling a smile creep up on me. "What's the trouble? I mean if there is already drama adding more wouldn't matter. If anything it'll probably solve some things." He said nodding approvingly.

"Well, that's true. But I'm concerned with something." I say slowly taking a breathe. "And that is?"

"How!?" I ask unnecessarily loud. Kristoff cleared his throat impatiently. "Sorry." I say, ducking my head down. Flynn laughed and got up, picking me up by the elbow. "Let's go. We can talk better outside."

"Right..." I said getting up and following him out.
Once outside Flynn took a deep breath of the fresh air, staring straight ahead. "Choosing someone, huh?" He mused. I silently walked next to him. "Do you even like one of them?"

Hitting hard with the tough questions, huh.

"... I think I do." I say blushing, it was the first time I had admitted it. "You think?" He asked not impressed. I laughed, "Shut up, it's embarrassing to say yes out loud, okay?" I joke, covering my face.

"Aren't you surprisingly shy?" He asked mockingly. "Flynn, I swear." I said threatening with a fist. "Okay, okay. So, which one."

"Which one indeed."I said jokingly. "You don't know? Whaaaat."
"Well, I know they're both special to me. But, I can't distinguish from... love and infatuation." I say. "Come on Elsa, there's gotta be one that's more important than the other."

I mulled over his question, yeah he was right. I'd be a fool to not notice it's obviousness.

"Yeah, you're right. He's always there for me... he's kind and has the best pair of-" I got cut off.
"Elsa, Elsa I asked who you liked not why you liked them." He said smiling and bumping into me. I smiled looking down, "Ha. Right." I say sarcastically.

"Come on what's the name." He said finally looking at me, his eyes seemed to stare at me intently.
It seems I can't evade the question anymore.

"It's -"

"Elsa!" I suddenly hear a voice say. I turned around quickly recognizing the voice. "Olaf?!" I exclaimed running up to him grabbing him by the face which turned out to be quite the task.

What is he doing here? No, This is bad. People will know my secret. "Elsa, Elsa, Elsa." He kept repeating my name and with each name he snuggled closer to me.

"What's wrong Olaf."I asked scared. But he wouldn't respond to me.
With a few cracks of branches I knew Flynn was coming up behind me.
"Elsa, who's this boy?"

*Jack*
I sat down on the bed.
"I'll go to class now." Elsa said unusually stoic for what was happening here. I mean we were just having a moment.

"Yeah. Hurry you missed quite the few classes already."
Ahhh. I internally screamed as I layed on the bed. Son of a...
What was I even doing?

I lifelessly grabbed the pillow next to me and slammed it onto my face. I haven't seen her in 3 months and I scare her off?!

I sighed a few more times before reluctantly escaping the nurse office through the window.

Yes, I was throwing a tantrum.

"Jack. Jack." A girl screamed after me. Ugh. "What do you want now?" I asked darkly not even bothering to turn around.

"So mean. I just wanted to know if youve been getting close to Elsa. No right?" She said as she went to stand infront of me, feigning a pout. "No. Now leave me alone." I said trying to walk away.

But, she grabbed my arm cuddling into it. "You're a terrible liar." She said laughing too sweetly for her venomous personality.

I glared at her. "Jack, I am black mailing you, you know." She said her golden eyes digging to the depths of my blue ones.

"I know, now leave me alone." I said clenching my teeth. "Ooh, scary." she said as I snatched my arm back.

She giggled again as I walked away.
I need to keep Elsa safe... even if it means staying away from her. I hated that i needed to stay away from her, her returning was the most crucial part of her possibly reciprocating his feelings. Now this time i cant be with her, Hiccup can use to his advantage. What if in the end she chooses Hiccup... I clutch my hand tight. No never.

Ah, speak of the devil. "Hiccup!" I call out waving my hand for him to see.
"Jack!" He screamed back his eyes lighting up once he saw me. What's this he seems so relieved.

I inched closer and he came running towards me almost falling into me
"Hey, are you okay?" I asked grabbing his shoulders to steady him. He feverishly nodded his head "Why are you like this?" I asked.

"Almost got into a fight with Flynn."He said passively. "Flynn?" I asked bewildered, what the hell?

"Jack that's not the point!" He exclaimed. "Then what's the point?" "Jack I'm so screwed." He said his eyes pleading.

"Why? Come on Hiccup speak to me." I said honestly concerned.

"Dude. I think I like Merida."
