Little Things (Helsa)

A Big Day - But For Who?

(ELSA)

Anna's wedding day had finally arrived. As soon as I woke up, I could hear the entire kingdom moving about with excitement. It wasn't every day someone married a princess in Arendelle. All the planning was done and finalized with all the servants, so today Anna could just relax and enjoy her special day. I myself could not wait to sleep tonight. As soon as I got up, I was immediately exhausted. It was just one more day and I was determined to walk my sister down the aisle.

I had a little bit of trouble getting into my fancy dress. It was almost like a mash up of my coronation and ice dresses. It had all the icy blue colors I loved with the designs and style of the kingdom. It made me look very queenly. I had also decided to wear my hair as my mother did; in a neat bun with her crown on top of her beautiful hair. If only my parents could have lived to see one of their daughters' wedding days. I glanced at the portrait of my father, and silently promised to be a good replacement for him when I walked Anna down the aisle. I missed my parents so much sometimes, even though it had been so long since their death. I had never had the chance to grieve with anyone over them because I had been hiding my powers. I tried forgetting all the negative and focused on how happy they would be for my sister and I. With that I walked out of my room to help my sister start the next chapter of her life.

I was so happy I was practically jumping off the walls. When Elsa finally came in I had been up for hours waiting for the moment to start getting ready. She came in already in her gown. It looked beautiful on her, and she in it. I just gawked at her a little with my mouth open and she asked, "What are you looking at...?" I said, "You! You look beautiful Elsa. And you wore mom's crown... Thank you so much..." I started tearing up and she hugged me. She quickly said, "Now now, we can't have the bride crying on her wedding day! Let's get you ready!" She went and got my dress and helped me into it. I had picked a gown that was neither too big nor too small. It had just the right amount of poof and the veil was absolutely stunning. It took about ten minutes to get it situated, and once that was done, I had Elsa decorate it with her ice powers. It wasn't anything crazy, but just a touch of my sister that I wanted with me when I was up at the altar. I also wore a necklace my parents had given me the week before they died. It was a simple silver chain with a small cross on it, but it had so much meaning behind it that I couldn't not wear it.

Finally, I was ready. I was excited. I was delighted. And I was scared. Just before we left the room, my sister sat me down and told me all the weird things only our parents would have said. But then, she looked into my eyes and said, "I know all those years when I pushed you out I was hurting you, but I watched you grow up. At my coronation, I thought you had turned into a beautiful young lady, but today? You've become a beautiful woman, and I couldn't be prouder to call you my sister." I almost broke into tears when she said "sister". We finally had love between us and it filled me with so much joy. I hugged her and said, "Thank you so much Elsa, for always being there for me." We smiled at each other and she gave me her arm as an escort. We walked out of the room and up to the front gate of the castle. The guards opened the doors and the music played away.

As I led Anna to the chapel, I couldn't help but tear up. My little sister was finally getting married! She couldn't have been more excited. But she stopped me just before we got to the chapel. She said slowly, "Elsa, I need to tell you something before I leave and now is the only time." I nodded suspiciously and said, "Alright, what is it?" She said, "Well... I went to Hans a few days ago..." "What!?! Why Anna??" "I just wanted to see if he had changed at all. And I know you won't believe me, but he has. He isn't the same person he was. I just wanted you to know before he goes on trial." I understood, and nodded, saying, "Thank you for telling me Anna, really. But, today is your special day, and I won't let him ruin it. Let's get you married!" We both smiled and laughed a little and finished our walk.

We reached the altar, and I gave her hand over to Kristoff, and walked to my seat to sit down. Right as I sat the music stopped and the priest stood. The ceremony went by quickly and the vows were given. Rings were exchanged and "I do's" were said. It finally came time for the kiss, and as their lips met the church exploded in cheering. Anna smiled and Kristoff laughed as they walked out of the church and up to the castle, leading the way for the crowd to get people settled as I made my way to the throne room. I stayed back a little, just to enjoy the peace in the chapel. It ended however, when the priest came up and said, "I hope it'll be you I marry next, your majesty." I smiled kindly and bowed in respect. I walked out, a little annoyed, and started my walk back to the castle.

When I reached the gates, I was feeling a little dizzy. I stopped before they opened the doors and took a moment to l catch my breath. I smiled at the guards and nodded for them to open the gates. I stood tall and proud as I continued walking to my throne. I finally made it and the room silenced. I continued to my chair and turned around. I spoke loudly, saying, "Ladies and gentlemen, I present, Prince Kristoff and Princess Anna, the newlyweds of Arendelle!" The room exploded into applause and they started the celebration with the first dance.

The party went by quickly, and before I knew it, everyone was waving goodbye to the two love birds. I gave them both hugs and wished them well, and to come back safely. They promised and got into the carriage. They drove off with children chasing them, and cheering in the background. Once they left the castle emptied almost immediately. I was soon sitting alone in the throne room, lost in thought. My sister's wedding had gone quite well, but now what was I going to do with Hans...?
