❄️Iduna's Point Of View❄️
It's been over a week since Agnarr's birthday ball and the private moment we shared in the gardens. But it has also been over a week since I've seen him and I couldn't help but have the feeling that he's avoiding me, only leaving me to have my heart break more as each day passes.
"Maybe he doesn't want to see me again and regrets meeting me" I sniffle softly as I rub my now red puffy eyes.
I was currently at the tree on the hill that Agnarr and I officially met each other. I was laying against the tree while hugging my legs close to my chest, as I looked over at the setting sun in the distance as it casts a combination of warm colours through the Kingdom.
Remembering back to the night of the ball. I remember as soon as his lips touched mine I felt sparks erupt inside me but as soon as I leaned into his touch he quickly moved away after realising what he did. But without a chance for me to speak he quickly left. Leaving his birthday gift behind.
I remember seeing his coat flow behind him as he rushes out the doors. Feeling tears well up in my eyes I grabbed his gift running my fingers over the box as a single teardrop lands on it. Quickly wiping my eyes I left the garden into the empty corridor. Agnarr being nowhere in sight.
Feeling broken and rejected I go to leave but part of me wanted to return to the ball and face him for what he did the other just wanted to return home and forget.
With my emotions mixed, I knew that Agnarr liked my gift and he should keep hold of it. Making a decision I decide to sneak away to place his gift in his bedroom chambers.
Sneaking up the staircase hiding from guards as they walked their routes and random guests that had a bit too much to drink. I arrive at his chambers, slowly pushing open one of the double doors I enter the room before softly shutting the door, being careful not to make any sound.
Turning around I was faced with a large room with two side rooms on either side. One I'm guessing was the bathroom and the other the bedroom. As I walk up into the middle of the room which I realised was a simple sitting area. I approach a small table and carefully place his gift on it.
As I went to leave I spotted a painting on the wall near the doorway. It looked somewhat done recently, maybe a year or so old. It was a painting of Agnarr and both his parents. His mother sat on a chair while both him and his father stood next to her. His father had a stern look on his face while both Agnarr and his mother had a small smile.
I softly smile at the painting before flashbacks of my parents flash in my mind. I've been in Arendelle for so long that I'm starting to forget them. I don't even know if they survived the battle with the Arendellians. My smile turned into a frown as I fought back my tears as I realised I'll probably never see my parents again.
Quickly, I walked out of the chambers and made my way home. Where I spent the next few days in my room.
Coming back to reality, I grab out my drawing book along with my paints that Gustav and Helga bought for me. Slowly I began painting a portrait of my own parents and I in the Enchanted Forest, that way I wouldn't forget them as long as I lived in Arendelle. As I was painting I started to sing a lullaby my mother used to sing to me.
(A/N ~ Here is the song —> https://youtu.be/83xKtqPE4CQ)
"Nuku, nuku nurmilintu, Väsy, väsy, västäräkki. Nuku nurmelle hyvälle, Vaivu maalle valkialle"
"Nukuta, jumala, lasta. Makauta, mariainen. Kuro kiisan silmät kiinni. Anna unta aamuun asti."
"(bíum bíum bambaló) Nuku, nuku, nurmilintu. Väsy, väsy västäräkki. Nuku, kun mie nukutan, Väsy, kun mie väsytän"
As I finished singing the song, I let my tears fall from my face onto the painting below.
"I miss you Mother and Father. I wish you were here with me" I whimper as my emotions take over me.
As I was crying I felt a hand being gently placed on my shoulder. Spooked by the sudden feeling, I flinched away from the unknown person until I met with their eyes.
His eyes. Quickly wiping my tears away I begin packing up my stuff. But before I could even finish and run away, I was pulled into a hug. His arms wrapping around my waist as he pulled me closer to his chest as he stroked my hair, whispering gently in my ear.
"Shh.. it's okay, I'm here. I'm sorry, I'm so sorry Iduna"
After a few minutes of being in his warm arms I finally move back and look him in the eye before speaking softly as I rub my arms feeling the cold air hit me.
"Why are you here so late at night"
"I came looking for you. I've felt terrible for how I've treated you for the past week and noticed how you stop coming to the castle. I'll understand if you hate me especially after I ran off like a coward the other night" Agnarr softly speaks as he begins to feel tears gathering in his own eyes.
Looking intently into his eyes I could tell what he was saying was truthful. Walking up to him I wrap my arms around him as he wraps his around me pulling me closer as if I would disappear before his eyes.
"You are no coward Agnarr. You panicked. It's okay to be afraid" I softly speak as I inhale his scent.
"But I hurt you Iduna. You've been upset ever since that night" He whispers as he starts to softly cry into my shoulder.
"Your not the full reason I've been upset Agnarr, so don't think all this is your fault"
"What's the other reason?" Agnarr asks as he pulls back but was still holding me in his arms
"When I placed your gift in your chambers after you left it behind I saw the painting of you and your parents. Something was triggered inside me as I came to realise that I'd never see my parents again or if they are even still alive" I whimper as I feel my tears coming back and falling against my cheeks again. But what I didn't expect was Agnarr raising his hand and wiping my tears away.
"I'm so sorry Iduna. I'm sorry I haven't been here for you when you needed me most. I've been a terrible friend"
Looking back at Agnarr I softly smile for the first time in days as I reach my hand up and pull a strand of blonde hair back behind his ear as he leaned into my touch.
"You've never spoken much of your parents until now. Is there more you want to tell me?"
"I'll tell you about my past one day Agnarr, but until then I want you to treat me the same way you always have. A simple girl who lives in Arendelle"
"I promise, but I must know. Do you forgive me for the other night? I mean I'll understand if you don't" Asks Agnarr as he gazed softly into my eyes waiting for an answer.
"Of course I do" I say softly as I pull him in closer while pulling his face down to my level and placing a soft kiss on his lips as he smiles returning the kiss while wrapping his arms tighter around me as the sky above turned to night with the moon glowing down on us and the beautiful stars shining brightly.
(A/N ~ Hello Lovelies! Don't worry this isn't the end of the book yet, I'm planning to eventually lead up to when Elsa and Anna are born but I will need some time to think about the next chapters before that happens. If you guys have any ideas of what you'd like to read next let me know! :)
