Once again I found myself storming to Jacks room. Hiccup stood outside the door.

"Lady Merida you cannot be here. The prince is very upset." Hiccup tried to convince me to leave even though he knew it wouldn't work.

"So are my friends. I need to speak with him." I argued.

"Can you come back another time? I'm not allowed to let you in." He suggested.

"I'm getting in there one way or another and we both know it so open the damn door." I ordered. Hiccup opened the door. One of these days I would get him fired.

"Get out." Jack mumbled.

"Jack what's wrong? " I asked sitting beside him on the floor.

"I've lost them both. The two girls here I actually thought I could have a future with. They are both trying to get away. Last night at the ball Elsa was almost kissing the prince of the Southern Isles. And Rapunzel is in love with someone else. Toothiana wouldn't be able to handle being queen. She's too fragile. I don't have any feelings for Mulan. She's only still here because she has ties to New Asia." I wrapped my arm around him. I moved my hand up and down  in a comforting manor.

"I'm sorry Jack but I'm sure you will figure something out." I sighed trying to comfort him further.

"Marry me." He said. His statement caught me off guard.

"What?"

"Marry me. You're the only one who has been here for me since the beginning. I would be able to spend the rest of my life with you. Marry me Merida." He leaned in and kissed me but I immediately pushed him off.

"Jack you're upset. You don't want to be trapped in a loveless marriage. You don't love me. You don't love Rapunzel either, she was just your safety net. You love Elsa. It's always been Elsa." He stared at me then at the ground. "If you love her, go to her. Fight for her."

"I-"

"Fight for her Jack. You already have her heart. Prove to her that she has yours."

"What would I do without you?" He sighed smiling.
