Jack grinned mischievously a few days later as he caught sight of Queen Elsa up in her room through the balcony doors that were wide open. If this wasn't a call for a truce of friendship, he didn't know what was.

He packed a tight snowball in his hand, took aim, and threw it with all his might. The snowball flew high, arching into the air before sailing right into the open doors up above and nailing Elsa right in the back. She let out a shriek of surprise which only managed to make Jack snicker even harder.

Within a few short moments, Elsa walked out onto the balcony with her hands on her hips, but then her smile widened as she saw Jack down below.

"I thought that was you," Elsa laughed. "I can smell you from a mile away. Who else has the nerve to attack Ledas' new queen with a snowball?"

"Obviously only me," Jack laughed which then turned into a chuckle and then a sigh. The two of them were easing back into that easy friendship of theirs, but it just wasn't the same. Jack loved her with all his heart, and he couldn't decide if he was the one who did this to them or if this was how it was meant to be. Jack never saw himself anything more than just Jack Frost, a servant of the Snow Queen. Where did he belong now?

"So are you gonna come up here or am I going to have to return fire?" she asked, grinning mischievously.

Jack laughed and rolled his eyes. "A queen having a snowball fight? They'll start calling you Queen Elsa Mischief Arendelle."

She laughed again, her eyes sparkling in amusement. "I take it that people call you Jack Mischief Frost?"

"That's exactly right, but I deserve it. After all, who else would frost an entire field of flowers that Alyssa just barely grew for his own entertainment?"

Elsa leaned further on the railing, her smile growing bigger and bigger with each well deserved rib on him. "And who else would make fake snow snakes to scare my horses just for the fun of it?"

Jack's smile faded into a look of guilt. "How did you find out about that?"

She rolled her eyes at him. "Who else would do that? Of course it was you. I'm starting to think that we need to guard you instead of you guarding me."

Even though his magic was now very weak, he could still do several things that he felt grateful about not losing. As he walked, he created icy stairs that led up to Elsa's balcony, and when he was eye level with her, he leaned on the balcony so they were only inches apart, the proximity causing his heart to beat fast in his chest.

"To be fair, I'm not the one getting attacked by giants. That completely warrants your own protection, don't you think?" He grinned as he pulled his gift to her out of his bag. "Besides attacking you with a snowball, I actually came here to give you something."

He produced the snow globe that he had made for her earlier, except now it was fixed. Mostly. Jack couldn't bond the cracks together as well as he had hoped without his full power. "I know it's not much, and I know it's not great, but if you gave me a peace offering, I'm also giving you a peace offering. You'll have to put it somewhere safe so Jack Mischief Frost doesn't destroy it again."

Elsa's eyes swam with happy tears as she took it from him, turning it around and around in her hands and giggling as their figurines revolved on the spot. "Thank you, Jack. This means so much to me." She perked up suddenly and her shimmering blue eyes darted to his, a smile spreading across her face. "We've been putting in a lot of time and energy into trying to get that staff of yours working again. How about we take a break and go ice skating? Just me and you."
