Winters Revenge

Chapter Eighty- A New Beginning.

Elsa, dressed in light blue jeans, a white vest top, and a white leather jacket, sat on the couch. Jack moved boxes from the hallway to their new room that was a like an apartment, gifted by Nick when they moved in together two weeks ago. Elsa smiled at Jack, who blushed and glanced at her. He rushed over, standing in front of her as she ran a hand through her long blonde hair. Jack leaned down and kissed her. She had taken a break from arranging books and watched him with a shy smile. They pulled away, her heart racing, while his blue eyes looked at her with a smirk.

Jack said, "You really can't resist watching me, can you?" He held her hand, and his thumb moved over the back of her hand.

Elsa blushed madly feeling the heat in her cheeks as it took over as she cast her eyes to the floor with a slight smile. Looking back up she locked her sapphire's onto his cobalt's as she sucked a breath in and out while her heart raced at his comment, he was right somehow he always manged to catch her watching him, but she couldn't help it.

Elsa said, "I couldn't help it," and bit her lip. Jack chuckled, noting the change in her voice. He observed that she often appeared shy around him.

Jack smirked, "Have I mentioned how cute you are when you're shy?"

Elsa responded, "Are you seriously flirting with me now, Frost?"

Jack winked at her and leaned down to kiss her lips again, saying, "Why not?"

Elsa reciprocated his kiss with ease and then smiled as she watched him return to the numerous boxes outside the open door. Removing her white leather jacket, she rose to her feet and turned back to the boxes behind the couch, which were still filled with books waiting to be placed on the new bookshelf.

Jack "Where's Anna at today anyways? Kristoff looked like a lost puppy earlier when I saw him." He asked.

Elsa "Oh Nick asked her if she could help him show the new Agents around the institute." She replied.

Jack said, carrying another box into the room, "I didn't realize we were getting new Agents."

Elsa turned and smiled at him from behind the couch. "Me neither, but apparently they're needed. It'll be nice to have fresh faces around," she shrugged.

Jack: "I agree."

Elsa: "Actually, Anna requested my assistance later, but I was going to suggest that we engage in some training after we finish here," she proposed.

Jack: "Yes, that sounds like a good plan. I enjoy training with you, as you are aware," he remarked with a chuckle.

Elsa: "I am certainly aware of that."

After finishing their training session, Elsa and Jack walked through the halls of the institute. Their muscles ached pleasantly, a testament to their hard work. Elsa smiled, enjoying the camaraderie and the sense of accomplishment that training always brought. Her heart fluttered as she held Jack's hand, recalling their recent flirtation.

As they turned a corner, they noticed Anna talking animatedly with Nick, who was pointing out various features of the institute to a new agent. The sight of fresh face brought a sense of novelty and excitement to the otherwise familiar surroundings.

Suddenly, Elsa's step faltered. Her heart raced and her breath caught in her throat as she recognized an unwanted, familiar face stood beside her sister. The individual, seemingly oblivious to Elsa's presence, laughed at something Anna said, stirring memories she had tried hard to forget.

Panic surged through her veins, and without thinking, Elsa reached instinctively for Anna's gun. Jack immediately noticed her change in demeanour and placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

"Elsa, what's wrong?" he asked, his voice low and concerned.

A loud bang echoed, and Elsa's vision went black......
