Weeks had passed. But those weeks felt like years as Arendelle slowly began to crumble into a kingdom of despair as the happiness drained from it.
“Elsa. Why are you doing this to yourself?” Hans asked through the door as he sunk to the floor, leaning against Elsa’s bedroom door, mentally begging for a response, just like he had been for what was now nearly two months.
Silence.
“Elsa! What do you want me to do?! I will beg if I have to. I just want to hear one answer from you!”
Silence.
“Why would you let your sister leave like that? Why would you punish Arendelle like this? Why are you locking me away from the one person I love?”
“It’s not like that”
An answer. Finally an answer, nothing insightful but one answer seemed like the world had become a little brighter.
“What do you mean its not like that?! It’s like that exactly! You're letting Arendelle freeze. You let your sister who loved you so much leave without a single goodbye and you're acting although I have never meant anything to you! I might as well not exist.” Hans protested, desperate for the answers he had been asking for daily.
Frost began to creep its way under the door, a cold breeze running up his back making him shiver more that he already was.
“I don’t mean to do this. I promise I don’t. It’s the curse, the second curse.”
A puzzled expression appeared on his face. A second curse? Literally another curse or does she mean it in a.. Metaphorical sense?
Hans flinched as he now heard the unrecognizable sound of the bedroom door being unlocked and the sound of ice breaking as the door was slowly pulled open. He quickly got up, brushing himself down before hesitantly walking into the dark cold bedroom that used to be filled with happy moments between the two of them, passionate nights and restful mornings, but now… now there wasn’t many words to describe it, nothing positive that is. Just a darkened room where every footstep echoed.
“I'm losing control of it all” she whispered. The last time he saw her she looked so confident, so powerful, so gorgeous… but now she looked hurt, pained, alone and vulnerable. Her eyes only occasionally meeting his, and even when they did they were lost and tear-filled.
“What do you mean? What are you losing cont-“
“You know I have a frozen heart. Sometimes I do things I don’t mean too. When I realized I had practically thrown my sister out of her own kingdom I realized it was wrong. I realized she would never accept an apology for the pain I put her through, and so I had to lock myself away… Its my escape”
Elsa sat on the edge of her frosted bed with Hans swiftly taking a seat by her side nervously wrapping one arm around her.
“When I get angry, its like everything freezes and I lose control of what I'm saying or doing and I end up speaking without thinking and because of this stupid curse I act so cold and now I've lost everyone I love and the people of Arendelle now hate me and know about the curse. Love thaws a frozen heart, but how could anyone love m-“
Silence.
As Hans’ lips pressed against her cold ones causing her cheeks to flush a light pink and the ice around the room to slowly recede. A moment passed before she finally gave into him, kissing him back softly until the two of them were left slightly breathless. When they finally opened their eyes the room was revealed to them in a completely different light. The room was filled with a golden glow of the sinking sun and the ice was gone, although it was all just a bad memory.
“I'm weak to you Hans. All of me, even my most frozen cold thoughts melt for you.”
He softly pulled her in closer, her head rested on his broad shoulder as his body heat began to warm her small, fragile and cold body. “We need Anna back here. She can marry him… I don’t care. I just need my sister back. Do you know where the two of them headed?” She asked, nervous to his response.
“The kingdom of Aria I believe”
Elsa's eyes widened slightly “A-Aria?” She stuttered, she had never been fond on the place… or the people. They were always so secretive about almost everything, even though disliking them for that would make Elsa somewhat of a hypocrite.
She got quickly up onto her feet and stumbled weakly over to her desk, sitting herself down in the chair set out. She pulled forward a sheet of paper that had the Arendelle logo stamped on the top left hand corner which confirmed it had come from the castle, and nearly always from either Elsa or Hans.
She picked up the quill and dipped it into the ink carefully before beginning to write with a slight urgency. She focused on every letter, making sure it was all written with perfection. Each and every word well thought over before written.
Finally she folded the pages together before neatly pushing it into an envelope that was held closed with an Arendelle official impression.
She spun around to face her husband who hadn’t yet taken his eyes away from her. “This is to be mailed to Aria immediately” She stated before turning back around, picking up the quill again. “And if this doesn’t work… I will have to give Aria a visit” She said with a shudder at the thought of returning to that place.
“You're not going alone Sweetheart”
She turned back to give him a weak smile before stretching her arm out towards him to hand him the envelope which he gently removed from her hand, looking over it briefly, reading the word “Princess Anna of Arendelle” in the most beautiful hand writing he had ever seen.
“I love her too much to lose her. Just like I love you too much to lose you. I just hope she feels the same way back” Elsa said, letting her eyes flick between the envelope now in his hand and his face.
He got up and walked towards her kissing her forehead softly with a small smile. “Anna loves you Elsa, she always has and always will. Nothing could ever change that. You said things you regret and I'm sure she does too. You're both lost without one another. A sisterly bond that strong will never break, I promise you. She’s your family. She would never stop loving you”
