A Second Chance

Not This Time

Elsa's POV
(Four Months Later)

I wake up and pry myself out of bed, I get showered and ready. I head out the door and drive to college when I get a call from Anna.

"Hey, you" I say as I leave the phone on the holder and focus back on the road ahead.

"Hey, you." she repeated and I could hear the happiness in her voice. "So... it's been a while now, have you thought about it?" she asked, clearly referring to Jack.

I sigh as I park my car and grab the phone out of it's holder. "Anna, you know I'm not going to rush into anything."

I could hear her hesitation and frustrated groan over the phone. "Yeah, yeah. But... can I say something?" she asked nicely to which I gave her an agreeing hmm and she went on. "He's not always going to be around, and especially if he is the father, then there will be one day when he will be gone forever. I mean... did you ever tell him?" she questioned me and I felt myself fighting tears back.

"Anna... I'm sorry, it's just... how can I love a man when he has a child with someone else?" I say as I get back in my car and let myself cry.

"Ok...." she said then covered the phone. I could tell she did so because I heard her and Kristoff murmuring to each other.

They had started dating around the time I had stopped taking up all of Anna's time with crying.

"Um, Elsa Kristoff had family in America and.... um, well, um we're going to visit them for summer vacation. Do you want to come?" she asked me with a worried tone.

"Not if I'll be the third wheel." I answer as I wipe tears away.

"It's not like that, it's just he needs family right now because a friend of him was in a really bad car wreck." She explained as I thought it over.

"Oh, well no. I mean I wouldn't really belong anyway." I said as I fixed myself up and got out of the car to head to class.

"When will you be leaving?" I asked as I headed to finish my final exam of the year to graduate.

"Right now, it's kind of an emergency, you know. We want to go see him as often as possible." Anna explained as I could hear her in a car.

"Okay, be safe. And send my condolences." I said as I entered the building.

"Yeah, but just remember what I said, Elsa. He might not be there the next day..." she whispered then hung up.
