Mercy

Ch 3

Elsa's POV
I've never seen Jack act that way before, he was really protecting us. I'm glad I didn't have to give up my journal, even if it was only for an hour. I've never let it out of my sight or grasp, not even Anna has seen it. Jack looked at it smiling, "so, what's in it? May I see?" I've never shown anyone before, but I sat next to him and opened to the first page. "It's mostly fashion designs and songs I've written." I smiled. Jack flipped to the fifth page and saw a song I had been working on, "hmm, let it go. Sounds like a good song, may I hear some of it Elsa?" I blushed, I had never sang in front of someone before, "want to sing it with me? You could sing the chorus when I do." He smiled and nodded. I started (Elsa's in italics Jack's in bold and both are bold and italics.) The snow glows white on the mountain tonight, not a footprint to be seen. A kingdom of isolation and it looks like I'm the king. The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside, couldn't keep it in heaven knows I've tried. Don't let them in, don't let them see, be the good boy you always have to be. Conceal don't feel, don't let them know. Well now they know, let it go, let it go, can't hold it back anymore. let it go, let it go, turn away and slam the door. I don't care what they're going to say, let the storm rage on. The cold never bothered me anyway. Jack smiled, "it's a beautiful song Elsa, I love it." I smiled, "I wrote it the day after my father died. I stopped writing after I started college again, I've tried finishing it, but I've been having trouble with the lyrics." "Well, maybe they will come to you soon. In the meantime, lets go get some lunch. Are you hungry?"

Jack's POV
Elsa smiled, "well, just a little. Could we go get some fries? Just for a snack." I held her hand and smiled, "sure snowflake." We went to the nearest fast food restaurant and ordered two large fries. "I heard there is a house for sale not too far from here. Can we go look at it?" Elsa smiled. "Is it in our price range?" I nodded, "yes, and it's really close to SeaWorld." That's our dream jobs by the way. We drove to the address from the advertisement and saw a number to call. Elsa then called the lady and we decided to meet her at the park.

Elsa's POV
We soon arrived at the park and saw a lady sitting at a picnic table, that must be her. We walked to her and sat across from her at the table, I smiled, "hi, I'm Elsa, I called you earlier about the house." She smiled, "hi Elsa, I'm Tiana Andrews. And who is this fine fellow?" Jack smiled, "I'm Jackson Walker, I'm her boyfriend." She smiled, "well it's nice to meet you two. Now, about the house. It is only two years old, me and my husband moved because of our job location. It is a 400 sq feet house, it has a cathedral roof, the master bedroom is a bit large, the other bedrooms are medium size, and the kitchen has brand new counters and cabinets. Any questions or are you ready to see the house?" Jack smiled, "we would love to see the house." We went to our vehicles and she led us to the house, "here we are. Follow me." After an hour we finished the tour and she smiled, "alright, how did you like the house?" Jack smiled, "we love it." We went to sign over the house and we were set. We went back to the house and saw it was all set to move in, all we had to do was go back to the college and get our belongings before coming back to our new house. We finally got everything set up and sat on the couch before resting a bit. I smiled, "I can't believe we have a house together Jack." He smiled and rubbed my stomach, "well I can't believe we have a baby together." We kissed and he smiled, "I love you so much Elsa. More than you will ever know." I smiled, "I love you too Jack."

A month later
Jack's POV
Elsa is a little over a month pregnant now, and we are now trying to get ready for our training at SeaWorld. Yes, we got the jobs, now we are being trained on how to work with the dolphins. I'm still worried about Elsa doing this while she's pregnant, but I trust that she will be careful. "Alright, Elsa, Jackson, how are you at swimming underwater?" I smiled, "I do pretty well, I can hold my breath underwater for about five minutes." The trainer, Rebecca, smiled, "that's amazing, how about you Elsa?" She smiled, "about four minutes." Rebecca smiled, "that's great. Well, why don't we get you acquainted with the dolphins? That way they get to know who you are and get comfortable." Elsa smiled, "that's perfect." Rebecca led us to the dolphin tank and gave us some rash guards and swim shorts. We changed then got in the water, soon being greeted by the youngest dolphin, Chipper. Rebecca smiled, "this little guy is Chipper. He's the calf of our youngest female Elisabeth." Elsa smiled, "that's my name." She smiled, "really?" "Yeah, Elsa is short for Elisabeth." She smiled, "well, why don't I bring her out here for you two to meet?" She whistled and a slightly bigger dolphin swam towards us, "here she is." The dolphin swam to Elsa and the trainer let Elsa get comfortable with her. After about an hour we left, it was just the first day, so we didn't do much.

Elsa's POV
Being a month pregnant, the dolphins are so gentle and sweet. I think they can sense that I am pregnant, especially Elisabeth. Since she is a mother herself, she can sense my hormone change from Jack. I love this job, being with these majestic creatures really calms me. I don't feel stressed anymore, these beautiful animals have touched my heart and soul and melted my stress away.
