"Elsa's secret?" I ask almost shocked. "Yes, the one that caused her to shut everyone out." He says his smile growing. I had always adored Pitch but had he always been this...this creepy? I'm almost afraid to ask... but I don't have anyone else to answer that...
"Tell me..." I finally say looking up at the very tall Pitch. He met my gaze steadily. Until we were interrupted.

"Pitch!" I turn around to see Elsa with Rapunzel and Jack to her right and Hiccup and Merida on her left. "Elsa you finally came!" Pitch says obviously not intimidated by the five. "Stay back Pitch." Elsa says angrily. "Why are you being mean?" I ask confused and defensively.

"No, Anna it’s okay. But it was rude of them to interrupt our conversation." I just nod returning to look at Pitch. "What conversation, Pitch?" Elsa asks. "Elsa I was going to tell her...why you began shutting everyone out." Pitch says carefully as if ever word he said could break.

I looked over at Elsa and noticed all the color had drained from her, well she was already pale but she looked paler. "Pitch, please don't." Elsa finally says as she goes up to Pitch. The four behind her flinch as she leaves them but they didn't interfere as Pitch began speaking. "Elsa. I have a proposition for you." He says grabbing Elsa's hand. Wait...did pitch hand turn black momentarily? I just stood there watching not knowing what to do.

"What is it?" Elsa says looking at Pitch's hand. "Let's talk outside, shall we?" Pitch says. I was about to speak up but I was beaten to it.

"Whatever you have to say to her you can say in front of us!" Hiccup resounds from behind. I looked over at him and noticed he had a huge bruise along his hairline. "No...It’s okay. I'll go with Pitch... Just take care of Anna." She says not bothering to look at anyone but Pitch.

But I was shocked, when I heard my name... Take care? Am I in danger? Before I could try to speak up again, Elsa was already leaving with Pitch to the backyard. When they were out of view the four came up to me.

"Anna are you okay?" Rapunzel asks looking me up and down. Merida just began fiddling with her hair while Jack and Hiccup talked to each other. "Guys... What's happening?" I ask growing worried. None of them seemed to know what to say.
...
*Elsa* 
"What do you want Pitch?" I say folding my arms and facing him, we were now outside the patio. "If that's how you are going to act. I just might as well go and tell Anna your secret." He says smiling almost contently at me. "My secret... Don’t Pitch!" I say grabbing his arm.

He laughs and looks down at his arm, I had frozen it and he had begun making my hand black. "Don't you think it’s about time someone knew your secret?" Pitch asks while I shake my head. "By the look on your face it seems that you really haven't told anyone!" Pitch exclaims the black in my hand rising to my elbow. "I haven't." I say meekly, his darkness hurting me. "Don't tell me I came just when you were making friends!" Pitch exclaims again looking even happier with himself. 
I hate this I hate this so much. I felt my eyes tear up. I hate this! "Awe Elsa are you going to cry?" Pitch says smiling, his dusty black reaching my shoulder. "I'm not!" I scream at him, my ice on his arm grew too. I wipe at my eyes with my free hand, but it didn't help much. He smiled and then suddenly his face turned serious and his dust vanished.

"Fine, I won't tell anyone" I look up at him wide eyed "Really?!" I say finally feeling relieved. "Yes, but." No not buts...I felt my relief vanish
