"Jack!" Elsa called after him as he stormed outside. "Jack!" She followed him and ran up behind him.
"What?" He hissed. It scared Elsa.
"Please, I can explain everything."
"Can you? Because it looked real enough to me!" Jack faced her now. He was angry and it froze Elsa to see him this way.
"Hans, it was all him! He wanted to show his father that he liked me. I didn't want to do it! I tried to stop him, but he's stronger than I am! I didn't try to do anything to hurt our relationship!"
"Then you should have tried harder." Jack walked away. "Please, Jack," Elsa said. She knew he heard her, but he ignored it.
"I'm so sorry!" She couldn't let him go, she ran up in front of him. "Jack, I love you, not Hans. He messes everything up. Please, don't go."
"Why do you let him push you around like that, then?"
"What?"
"He handles you like a toy, and gets you to do anything he'd like."
"That's not true!"
"Name one thing he told you to do that you haven't done."
"He wanted me to go to the dance with him! I went with you!"
"And somehow he still got what he wanted out of you, didn't he?" Jack yelled.
"He said his dad would fire my mom if that didn't happen! What's worse, Jack? Kissing him, or my mother losing her job!?"
"Elsa, just look at it from my side! I leave for a few seconds, and in that time, the guy I hate the most makes out with you and you don't do anything to stop him!"
"I know, and I'm sorry, but you didn't answer my question!"
"Have you ever thought it was just a trick!? To get you to be with him!?"
Elsa was taken aback. "If it was, let's show him he's wrong! Stay!"
"I'm sorry, Elsa. I just can't take this anymore. If he won't leave you alone, I will."
Elsa was shocked, "I thought you cared for me more than that," she said softly. She felt herself grow angry. "Obviously, I was wrong," she yelled and turned back to the building.
"Elsa, that's not what I meant."
"What was it then?!"
"Now you know how I felt! To think you didn't like me enough to stop him!"
"That's different! That was physical strength. This is emotional!"
"Well, it looks like both of us don't have the latter!"
"I guess so!"
Elsa turned back to the dance. Jack drove away.
❄❄❄
"Elsa? I saw you come in here, is everything alright?" Elsa heard Anna come into an empty room where Elsa was sitting, putting her face to her knees.
"No," Elsa said, weakly.
Anna sat beside her.
"What's wrong? Where's Jack?"
"Gone."
"Gone where?"
"Away from me."
"For how long?"
Elsa shrugged. "Forever."
Suddenly, a guy walked in. He noticed the two girls and looked like he was going to stop. "Just keep on moving, Mister!" Anna said.
He left.
"What went wrong?" Anna moved herself in front of Elsa.
"Hans kissed me in front of Jack."
"Why?"
Elsa shrugged. "I don't know for sure."
"Why did Jack leave then? He knows you love him."
"No! He doesn't. And the feeling is mutual!" Elsa buried her face more.
❄❄❄
Jack drove towards Burgess, not really sure where he was going. He presumed he was going home, but he didn't feel like going there. He parked a ways out of Norway and hit his steering wheel.
"So stupid!" He got out and put his hands on his head, trying to cool down. Why had he left? It wasn't Elsa's fault! But it was! She chose to let the jerk handle her like that!
"Arg!" He picked up a rock and threw it as far as he could.
After running his hands through his hair multiple times, he got back in his car. There was a choice to make. Turn back, or keep going.
❄❄❄
"Please, Anna, Can't we please just go home?"
"No, he might come back. He likes you too much to leave just like that."
"No, he doesn't."
"Trust me," Elsa looked into her sister's eyes. Her smile was genuine, Elsa could tell.
"Okay," Elsa hugged her sister tightly.
An hour passed and nothing changed. By then, even Anna was losing hope. Kristoff insisted they should all go home. After another half hour, they did.
Elsa quickly changed out of the dress and rubbed the makeup away fiercely. She didn't want to remember today at all. She looked in the mirror once she was done. Her face was slightly red from rubbing at it so hard and there were signs of tears in her eyes.
"Elsa?"
Elsa turned to the door where Anna stood. She had changed her clothes, but her makeup and hair stayed from the dance.
"Don't hurt yourself."
Elsa cracked a small smile. "Thanks, Anna."
