Elsa stood quietly at the side of the room, eating a sandwich and watched as Rapunzel came waltzing over. Elsa quickly swallowed the lump of her peanut butter and jelly sandwich and smiled at Rapunzel.

"How's the party been?" Elsa asked and Rapunzel stood beside Elsa, looking over the party.

"It's good... I miss you and Anna though. I wish we didn't live so far away."

"Me too." Elsa sighed and thought of an idea. "Maybe for my honeymoon Hans and I could stop through Corona and stay for a day or so?"

"Ooh! That sounds like fun!" Rapunzel grinned and held Elsa's hands and noticed that they weren't trembling or cold, not even a little bit. "Can I ask you something?" Rapunzel said and became serious, which was unusual for her to become so serious with someone who was family.

"Sure." Elsa shrugged and smiled.

"Okay." Rapunzel said, letting go of Elsa's hands and ran a hand through her short brown hair. "So, you know your ice powers and all?" Elsa nodded. "Do you ever to get to have fun with them?"

"Yes." Elsa giggled and watched as Rapunzel's eyes sparkled then she giggled a little too. "Whenever I want to... I hardly ever use my powers though. Especially with it being summer."

"I think it'd be really fun to have ice powers or maybe something water like?" Rapunzel shrugged, still smiling. "I don't know."

"Good evening, ladies." Hans came up in front of Elsa and Rapunzel and bowed his head. Rapunzel grinned over at Elsa then lunged herself at Hans, bringing him into a tight hug. "Do I know you?" He asked and slowly patted her on the back awkwardly.

"Oh! I'm Elsa's cousin, Rapunzel." Rapunzel grinned and stood beside Elsa again. "You're practically family now so I hope you get used to hugs."

"Ah." Hans nodded and looked over at Elsa. She smiled up at him and he seemed to calm down a little. "So you know about our engagement?" Hans asked and Rapunzel nodded. "How are you guys related exactly?"

"My mother and her father are brother and sister." Elsa explained and Hans nodded. "We were just talking about our honeymoon. We really should stay in Corona for a day or two."

"Corona?" Hans asked and raised an eyebrow.

"It's where I live." Rapunzel smiled at him. "You two make a cute couple." She said and looked between Hans and Elsa. "Oh! Hans, you should meet my husband and daughter. I think you would get along with Eugene really well."

"I'd like to." Hans smiled and she nodded excitedly.

"I'll go find him! Don't go anywhere, you two!" Rapunzel smiled and skipped off into the crowd to find Eugene.

"She's a ball of energy." Hans chuckled and took Rapunzel's spot beside Elsa, she nodded and wanted so badly to rest her head against his arm but they couldn't reveal to anyone of their engagement just yet. "I've missed you all night." Hans muttered and picked up a sandwich from the table and took a small bite of it. "I've been watching you all night and all I can really think is 'Wow, I'll have this beautifully intelligent woman as my wife. I don't deserve her'."

"Hans, we deserve each other... We deserve to be happy." Elsa smiled and looked up into his emerald green eyes. "I haven't been able to find you anywhere though."

"It's pretty crowded and I was about in the middle." Hans shrugged. "Are you happy this ball is finally over?"

"Relieved, more likely... I'm just exhausted. I've been tired all day." She sighed and rested against the wall, her head leaning back a little.

"Why don't you just go to bed?"

"I'm the queen, I really should be here for my sister's welcoming ball for Mia and Conner... That's rude, don't you think?"

"I guess so but if you're tired..." He shrugged and they saw Rapunzel dragging along Eugene and Macy.

"Eugene, Hans. Hans, Eugene." Rapunzel said when she reached Hans and Elsa. Eugene and Hans nodded at each other and held out their hands and shook them awkwardly. "Eugene, this Elsa's fiancé. Hans, this is my husband Eugene and my daughter Macy." Rapunzel smiled and gestured from Eugene to Macy.

"It's a pleasure to meet all of you." Hans smiled and bowed his head respectively. "I'm going to go out and mingle, I suppose." Hans muttered to Elsa and she nodded. "I love you, see you later." He smiled and went to kiss her but stopped himself. He cleared his throat, straightened up and laughed awkwardly. "Sorry, I keep forgetting that not everyone knows." Hans mumbled and gave Elsa a small smile. "Love you," He whispered and continued smiling.

"I love you too." Elsa said and once he was gone she looked around the room for Alan to see if they could talk now before it became too late in the night.
