Heated Ice (Helsa)

Chapter 119:

Weeks had passed on, pulling them closer and closer to Thanksgiving. Elsa received several response letters from Hans' family and who would be coming. So far it was Desmond, Alan, Susan, Leo, Anna and Kristoff of course. Elsa's belly grew a little more over time and you could finally tell she was pregnant, after all it had been four months already.

With Elsa's pregnancy, she was beginning to really show and thankfully the morning sickness had died down. With her magic she was still limited but as she used it more each time the baby must've gotten used to it. Hans was happily involved with the pregnancy, picking out names and even decorating the baby's room with gender neutral colors.

~~~~~~~~~

It was Thanksgiving afternoon, all of the guests arrived in the castle, none of them talking about Henry's death. Elsa, Anna and Susan were all busy in the kitchen preparing the food for dinner while Hans and the men of his family sat in the living room talking amongst themselves.

Outside the leaves had all fallen off of the trees, snow covered Arendelle but thankfully it wasn't too cold to go outside.

"Elsa?" Susan asked and Elsa looked over to her while she kneaded the dough for dinner rolls. "Why don't you take a break?" Susan smiled but Elsa shrugged. Ever since the accident with Henry she had been touchy with feeling weak, she never wanted to feel weak again or even close so she fought against the pregnancy and did her normal routine.

"I'm okay, but thank you." Elsa smiled, turning back to continue kneading the dough. "I love Thanksgiving. I'm so glad family could come this year." Elsa said to Anna then to Susan.

"Thank you for inviting us, Elsa. I wouldn't know what to do if I was back home." Susan said and started peeling potatoes, afterwards going to boil them.

"You know what I just thought of," Anna said. "The kids, yours included," Anna pointed towards her belly and smiled. "Will all be around the same age so they'll practically grow up together."

"I just hope they'll get along." Elsa smiled and finished kneading the dough, dropping it onto a baking sheet to cook in the oven.

"Oh, I'm sure they will. They'll be best friends!" Anna said and watched while Elsa started the flames in the oven, then she placed the sheet in and watched the time. "Ah, I love the smell of bread." Anna sighed and smelled another scent. A sweet, rich scent that was in the air between Anna and Elsa. "Chocolate." Anna smiled and Elsa giggled, remembering at her coronation when they smelled chocolate.

"I laid out sweets over there." Elsa smiled and jabbed her thumb over her shoulder to a table full of sweets. It ranged from chocolate cake to a platter full of small chocolate candies.

"Yay!" Anna smiled and ran over, grabbing a handful of the small chocolates and just as she stuffed her mouth full Kristoff walked in. He stopped short and looked at her blankly, she quickly turned around and swallowed the rest of the chocolate and turned back to him. "Hi," Anna said nonchalantly and waved.

"Hi," Kristoff laughed and came over to the table beside her. "Are those my favorite kind?" Kristoff asked and pointed at the candies behind her.

"Ooh, yes! I didn't even notice they were there." Anna smiled and grabbed a few, immediately placing them in his hands. "Elsa laid out this whole table. She's practically the brains and labor for Thanksgiving this year." Kristoff smiled at her, not being able to say much with the chocolates stuffed in his mouth. "I knew I loved you for a reason." Anna smiled and kissed him, not really caring that his mouth was full of chocolate. He was practically her other half, they balanced each other out in the best way and a lot of times happened to like the same things, like chocolate.
