Hans and Elsa climbed into the carriage laughing and smiling at each other while picking off the little bits of rice people tossed at them.

"Hello, Mrs. Westerguard." Hans grinned and grabbed Elsa, kissing her all over her face, making her squirm and giggle in his arms.

"Hi." Elsa smiled and kissed him on the lips and wrapped her arms around his neck, hugging him to her body tightly.

"You look beautiful." He said and held her hand with his much larger hand.

"And you look handsome." She said and felt the carriage door clicking, sounding like someone would be coming in.

"I can't wait to get you out of that dress." He whispered into her ear, running his thumb around her shoulder.

"Hans." She whispered, leaning into him and just wanting to be held by him. She didn't want sex, she wanted to be held and feel loved by her husband. "I have a question."

"What's that?"

"Will you want to have children? I mean we're supposed to have an heir but I want to do what we want with our lives."

"I'm iffy on having children, but if it makes you happy, then your happiness is more important than mine." He said and kissed the top of her head.

"But I want you happy too. Why are you iffy on having children? You've been a great uncle to Mia and Conner, to Sebastian too."

"Babies... Scare me. What if I drop them? Or hurt them?"

"You wouldn't. I'm not asking for a child anytime soon but we should think about having a family at least."

"And Elsa," He said and adjusted himself so they were looking into each other's eyes. "I would love to start a family with you more than anything, but we should at least start our marriage together first before bringing children into this world."

"Okay." She smiled and kissed his cheek lightly, feeling the carriage come to a stop a little after silence between them.

"King Hans, Queen Elsa, the carriage has stopped in front of the castle. Are you both ready to head into your reception party?" The guard at the door asked and they both nodded and smiled to each other.

"King Hans, that's weird to hear." Hans mumbled. "Was it weird for you to be called Queen Elsa?"

"Not so much." Elsa shrugged and they climbed out of the carriage and stood outside of the castle's front doors.

"All your guests are waiting inside for you." The guard said and opened up the doors for them. They walked in hearing the fast paced music from the ballroom, Elsa took a deep breath and they walked into the ballroom. Everyone stopped dancing and turned to clap for the newly wed couple.

"Congrats, Elsa!" Anna said over the cheering and music, grabbing Elsa and hugged her tightly. "You too, Hans." She smiled and hugged Hans. They were both extremely happy that it wasn't weird to hug him, no matter what happened years ago.

"Thank you." Elsa smiled and looped her arm through Hans' arm.

"You have so many wedding gifts, it's crazy! And there are so many people here for you guys." Anna said and looked over to all the people talking amongst themselves.

"That's awesome." Elsa smiled and dragged Hans up to the front of the room. They stood in front of their thrones and took two cups of wine from a waiter and Hans raised his glass.

"Excuse me, I'd like to make a toast." Hans announced and everyone turned to their new king and queen. "Thank you." He smiled and lowered his glass. "I'm not very good at speeches but bare with me." Hans said and the crowd laughed a little bit. "I know some of you may be skeptical of our marriage and of me but I truly love Elsa and I have no intention of taking any of Elsa's power away from her. She's a great ruler to Arendelle, a wonderful sister, my beautiful wife and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with this beautiful woman. You've made me a better man, Elsa." He said and smiled down to Elsa, the crowd cheered and hollered at them and everyone rose their glasses. "Cheers to a healthy life, a happy marriage and a wonderful country." He said and clanked his glass with Elsa's while everyone else clanked their glasses together. The music started back up loudly and the crowd mingled while Hans and Elsa took their seats in their thrones and enjoyed their party.
