Choo

Part 2

*A special thank you to HufflepuffThunderbird for making the adorable cover art for me.*

After the ball, in her room, Elsa made a tiny ice cradle on her dresser for Choo, and tucked him in under the snowy sheets.  "Good night, Choo," she said quietly.  Choo squeaked and smiled at her.

"You're not getting too attached to him, are you?" Jack teased as Elsa climbed into the bed beside him.

"Jack, he's going up to the palace tomorrow, and that's that," Elsa said firmly.

"Ooh!  Cold!" said Jack.

"Well, I am the Ice Queen," said Elsa.

"Yes.  Yes, you are," said Jack.  He moved closer to her, and connected their lips.  "Well, good night, my beautiful Snowflake."

"Good night, Jack," said Elsa.  She smiled and closed her eyes to fall asleep.

But the next moment, she heard a loud squeak.  Elsa got up, and went over to her dresser.  "What is it, Choo?" she asked.

Choo gave a little squeak, and turned his head to the side.  "I think he's jealous, Elsa," said Jack with a laugh.

Elsa gave a little sigh.  "Alright," she said.  She bent her head down, and kissed Choo's cheek.  The little snowgie gave a soft hum, and smiled as he closed his eyes.  Elsa felt her heart melting a bit as she watched him.  Then, she turned, and got back into bed with Jack.

The next morning, Elsa woke up to find Jack bent over the cradle, happily playing with Choo.  "Morning, boys," said Elsa coming over to the dresser.  The moment he saw her, Choo all but jumped out of his cradle.  Jack laughed, then picked him up out of the little bed, and placed him on Elsa's shoulder.  Choo closed his eyes, and lovingly brushed up against her cheek.  "Well!  Good morning, Choo!" said Elsa with a smile.

"He got up about a minute after me," said Jack.  "I would've taken him out to play, but...  I didn't want to get you worried."

"Well, thank you," said Elsa.  "That was very thoughtful, Jack."  She kissed him on the cheek.

At breakfast, Choo sat on the corner of the table, between Jack and Elsa.  Anna was enchanted with how cute he was, and Olaf was delighted to see one of his ".ittle brothers".  Elsa made a little plate in front of him, and put some of her food on it for him.  "He's pretty well-behaved for a snowgie," Anna remarked.

"Yes, surprisingly, he is," said Elsa.

"Are you sure we can't keep him, Snowflake?" said Jack.  "I mean, he's only one and he's got pretty good manners.  He won't be much trouble."

Elsa let out a deep breath.  "No, Jack," she said.  "I told you this would happen if you named him.  We're taking him up to the ice palace, and that's final."

"Oh, come on, Elsa!  Have a heart!" said Anna.

"She does," said Jack.  "I just haven't figured out how to thaw it out yet."  Anna and Olaf laughed.

Elsa rolled her eyes.  "Very funny," she said.  "Look, it'll be boring for him here.  I have my duties to take care of most of the day.  There will be nothing for him to do most of the time.  He'll be happier there with all the rest of his brothers."

"If you say so, Snowflake," sighed Jack.
