Heated Ice (Helsa)

Chapter Ninety-One:

"Elsa," Hans said in the dark of their bedroom. He turned over on the bed to face Elsa. She was laying there quietly and hasn't even said anything or said anything before she fell asleep. "Elsa." He whispered but she didn't respond. She was turned away from him, steady breathing but wasn't responding. What if she's poisoned again? Hans thought and panic rose in his chest. Hans sprung up out of bed, throwing the part of the comforter he was using aside and ran over to Elsa's side of the bed. "Elsa." He said and shook her arm. She jerked up in bed and looked around quickly then her eyes set on Hans.

"Hans?" Elsa asked and she heard him let out a sigh. "What's wrong?"

"I... I just thought maybe you were hurt again. You weren't responding." Hans said and climbed into bed on his side and held her to him tight.

"I was asleep." She mumbled, still half asleep now that she knew there wasn't any problem.

"Are you okay?" He asked and she nodded. "Are we okay?" He asked, half afraid to ask that question.

"Yes. Why wouldn't we be okay?"

"I don't know." Hans shrugged and kissed the top of her head. "You're kind of distant."

"No?" Elsa said and sat up, laying a hand down on his chest but was eye level. "We're perfectly fine. Happily new married couple."

"You just seem upset."

"No, I haven't been feeling right but I'll go to the doctors and have it all figured out." Elsa said and laid back down onto his chest.

"Are you okay? Do you want me to go with you?"

"That's okay. Anna is coming with me, but thank you." She said and immediately after let out a big yawn.

"Go back to sleep, I was just worried about you." He said and kissed the top of her hair again.

Hans woke up the next morning before Elsa and climbed out of bed, grabbing a new change of clothes. Heading into the bathroom he heard Elsa mumbled something in her sleep, she suddenly started thrashing and kicking at the blankets. Hans dropped his clothes and ran over to the side of the bed, he wrapped his arms around her but she fought against him.

"Elsa, stop. It's a nightmare." He said but she screamed and thrashed against him. "Elsa!" He said louder and she snapped awake, hardly pushing against him but he let her go. "It's okay. You had a nightmare."

"I... It was the worst thing." She said and cried into his chest.

"Do you want to talk about it?"

"Mhm." She said and looked up at him, wiping her tears clear from her eyes. "I was pregnant and you were upset with me and we argued." She said and started crying.

"Hey," He said and grabbed her, pulling her into his arms and she curled into his lap while he held her tight to his chest. "Even if you were pregnant I would never be mad or upset with you. The only thing I'd be worried about is if someone tried poisoning you again, it could kill the baby."

"We really need to find him or her. What ever happened to Laila? I haven't seen her."

"I asked her not to stay in the castle, she's staying in a home not too far away but she's not allowed in the castle unless they get your permission or mine."

"And she listened?"

"Surprisingly. She yelled at me and said she isn't going to get accused of it, so she listened." Hans shrugged. "I was going to get a shower, you should take a bath and relax."

"You're right." She nodded and they got up from the bed, Hans picked his clothes and towel up off the floor and waited near the door for Elsa. She quickly undressed herself and threw on her pink silk bathrobe, grabbed a towel and went into the bathroom with Hans.

He walked over to the shower, turning the water on and closed the curtain to make sure the water wouldn't leak out onto the floor. Elsa was at the other side of the bathroom and began running her water and looked up to Hans. He was beginning to undress from his night attire, his flannel pants and a plain black short sleeve shirt that hugged his muscles. He caught her eyes and smiled up at her.

"You can take your robe off?" He said and pulled his shirt up and over his head, tossing it in the wicker clothes basket near the sink.

"I... Um." She said but didn't want to in front of him. What if her stomach looked visibly bigger when she was undressed? How far along am I in my pregnancy if I'm starting to have a larger stomach? Elsa thought.

"What?" Hans asked and cocked his head to the side, she was acting strange and never was uncomfortable with being seen naked by Hans before. "Nevermind, I'm getting in the shower." He said and pulled his pants off around his ankles then went into the shower, shutting the shower curtain completely.

Elsa sighed quietly and looked over to her bath water, it was half way full so she added a bubble mixture and small bath bubbles started forming in the water. She untied her nightgown and noticed how bloated her stomach looked, she was already starting to show just a small bit but it was a little noticeable. It'd probably be extremely noticeable to Hans because he was used to her small, flat stomach that was now ruined by the baby bump. Elsa quickly ignored her stomach and sunk into the bathtub, the bubbles covering up to her chest.
