13 Covered in Ice

POV Lili

“So who are they?” I asked from Ethan and Aleah. Ethan was washing his head on the bathroom and I leaned on the doorway.

“Our ancestors!” Aleah cheered and I rolled my eyes. “You can’t possibly think like that!” I sighed.

“She’s speaking the truth. I’ve told you about the legend of our legacy? About the Queen who fell in love with a man who died due to heart problems? Well the thing is that she is that queen and he is that man but the catch is that the man was a Guardian who had powers,” Ethan tells me and is drying his hair.

I glare at him, “And my parents think that I’ll go marrying a crazy person.”

Marrying Ethan was something that my parents were speaking right after when I started walking. They had decided it on the day when I was born. As nobles my parents were always attending to parties at different kingdoms and they were easy to get along with anyone. Actually my dad was good friend’s with Ethan’s father when they were young. They studied in same boy school.

“I’m not crazy. Where do you think that the snow appeared!” Ethan shouted.

“Some crazy weather then?” I muttered. Ethan frowned and walked forward.

“She has Jack Frost’s power over wind,” Ethan yells and points at Aleah.

“Can she make the cows fly?” I laughed.

“Lili, that’s not nicely said,” Aleah mumbled.

“She could. And I can freeze things,” Ethan said coldly and pressed his hand against the bathroom mirror which started to freeze. I gasped and backed away.

“You did that snow!” I pointed at him and he shakes his head.

“No. It was Jack Frost,” Ethan sounded annoyed.

“You’re saying that your ancestor is some fairy tale character?” I said and rubbed my temples.

“He is not a fairy tale character. There really is Jack Frost,” I heard the woman telling. She had come out from the guestroom.

“How is he?” Ethan asked from her.

“He is freezing. Not good,” the woman sounded really sad and I felt bad for her.

“As sad I’m for everyone of you, well, stop believing in fairy tales. There’s a reasonable explanation to all of this,” I said to everyone. “She can’t be your ancestor. She’s standing here after decades, she can’t be --.”

“My name is Queen Elsa of Arendelle, later known as wife of Jack Frost and now I’m the Protector of the Guardians,” her voice sounded proud.

Aleah groaned, “Let’s just show Lili what we’re talking about.”

Then I see how Ethan somehow made it snow inside my house. “Stop with those tricks,” I ordered him but then the lady who claims to be Elsa stomped her feet on the floor. I almost lost my balance when I was standing on top of crystal clear ice.

I gasped for air when a strong wind started to push me backwards on the ice. It was the moment when I lost my balance and I fell backwards. However unlike I expected, I didn’t fall to frozen floor but I felt myself hitting on something warm. I look over my shoulder and I see Ethan, the person who is always dancing girls around in parties. Well, not me because I tell him to walk away.

“T-thanks,” I said to Ethan as I shrug his hands off. The thing is that I ended up falling in his arms again. He was laughing well I hang on his neck for dear life, because I’m staring at Aleah who is floating. She is floating in air!

“I’m starting to wonder if the cook put something extra on my breakfast today,” I said quietly.

“Lili, you’re not going crazy,” Aleah sighed and landed down. She landed down. WHO DOES THAT!

My head felt dizzy. Alright so I’m engaged to a guy who uses some ice powers and his cousin is flying. This makes perfect sense. Oh, and I got the chance to meet his.. great great great  great great.. who knows how great grandmother. A grandma who is in perfect shape.

“Lili?” Ethan whispers and I feel him turning me around. “You okay?” He sounds concerned and I nodded my head slowly. He has now his own eyes, those which look a lot like the ones on that lady called Elsa. I blush and look away when he lets go of me and messed up his black hair.

POV Jack

When I woke up I was gasping for air. My whole body is shivering and I can’t control it. It’s a fight that is almost impossible win, the fight of keeping my eyes open when I just want to keep them closed.

Elsa is not in the room with me anymore. Maybe she never wasn’t? It might be the imagination of my heart that just wishes me to be with her again. Slowly I start to sit on the bed and I rub my hands together, blowing some air on them. Which obviously didn’t help since I’m the normal freezing me.

My legs are barely carrying me when I go to the door. The whole door froze when I touched the door knob.  Then I look back at the guestroom. It was covered in thin layer of frost. When I take a look at my hand, I realized that it was turning into ice. However I’m not the only one that’s freezing, it’s like everything around me is freezing too. My powers are back but somehow triggered and uncontrollable because of my heart slowly freezing.

I trembled and fell to floor after taking couple steps forward. “H-how f-funny, I c-can’t walk,” I laughed with my rest powers.

“Jack! What on earth are you doing!” Elsa called me and runs to me. I had decided to lay on the spot where I had fallen. For a little while before trying to get up again.

“Y-you are h-here,” I said quietly and she kneeled next to me. She lifted my head on her lap and brushed her fingers through my hair. I smiled to her faintly and look into her crystal blue eyes.

“Of course I am here! But you should be in bed mister,” she laughed but sobbed at the same time.

I closed my eyes for a moment and I smiled. Her hand touches my face and when I opened my eyes again, she is still there. “I’m..I’m n-not in h-heaven?” I grinned and then I rubbed my sides.

“No, no you’re not,” she whispers and kisses my forehead. Then I heard running steps and I see the kids running towards me. “S-stop!” I shouted and coughed afterwards. Elsa looks at me, she seems confused.

I see how Ethan stops Aleah and Lili at the corridor. “L-look a-around,” I said with a whisper. Elsa frowned and looks around us. Her eyes widen as she realizes that the area around me is completely being frosted.

Someone is walking at us and I see that it’s Ethan. “So Frosty is freezing the place, huh? I told Aleah and Lili to stay at safe distance,” Ethan grinned and he looks at me.

“W-what?” I chuckled and then I coughed a bit.

“Your hair looks better in white as well as your eyes in blue,” Ethan winked his eye.

“You’re looking like yourself now,” Elsa said quietly and petted my head.

Then I had an idea. “U-use your powers.. M-make it e-end… I c-can’t b-bare this c-cold l-longer,” I said quietly.

Elsa and Ethan look at each other. “M-make it c-colder,” I insisted.

Elsa was about to argue with me but Ethan stopped her. “Jack is right. We can end this faster if we let him turn to ice. Then you can thaw him,” Ethan smiled and looks at Elsa. Elsa’s eyes were sad when she agreed to my plan.

Now it’s getting colder. I’m laying on the floor alone while Ethan and Elsa are freezing the area around me. My body has stopped shivering because it can’t handle more cold. My body gave up from the struggle and I’m feeling my consciousness going away. I can’t move myself and the numbness is taking me over. While Elsa and Ethan are standing close to me, making their powers and lowering the temperature, Aleah is in safety with the girl Lili. Now I don’t even feel the cold wind that Aleah was using on me from that distance. 

I don’t feel.

I don’t feel a thing.

POV Elsa

Jack has been laying on the floor for while. He isn’t moving or speaking. “J-jack?” I asked and I was about to stop but Ethan said that I should continue. It broke my heart to see Jack shivering from cold but it was much more painful to see that he isn’t reacting to coldness anymore.

“What’s happening!” Lili shouted and pointed at Jack.

It was happening. I see Jack’s body being covered by ice and I stop using my power. I’m.. I’m remembering something.

I hear myself crying Anna’s name, my sister’s name. I see a flash of a memory when she was being swallowed by ice, ice that covered her because of me. The pain of that memory was crushing my heart, how I cried for my sister.

“Elsa?” Ethan called me.

It’s happening again. I’m breathing heavily and looking at Jack.

“You need to thaw him,” Ethan told me calmly.

I look at Jack and then back at Ethan. “B-but I.. I don’t know how!” I cried.

Aleah runs to us, the area around us is slowly melting. One thing however remains the same. Jack. He is still frozen.

“It’s love Elsa! The legend says that love thaws!” Aleah speaks to me fast and I shook my head. Am I able to really love him? It’s just recently when I got my memories back of him. They had been stolen, but Toothiana had managed to search them back.

“Just try!” Aleah said to me quickly.

I go to Jack, it’s like he is sleeping under the ice. I hear how Lili whispers to Ethan and Aleah that they should go with her. To give us privacy.

The fear of failing in my attempt is filling my mind. “J-Jack.. I don’t know if I can do this,” I whispered.

“C-can you encourage me?” I whispered and tears run down on my face. He is still under the ice. He was there the whole time when I accidentally froze my sister. I remember that now. When I didn’t know that he was there the whole time.

I’m staring at his frozen figure. Now I’m feeling that he is slowly drifting away from this world. My shoulders are going up and down in the pace of my sobs. I lay on the floor next to him and I embrace him.

I have failed as the Protector. I couldn’t protect the Guardian of Fun. He is going to be away because of me.

And most of all.

I failed as a wife.

I forgot him. I forgot my past. Everything that was dear to me, that’s what I had forgotten.

My hands squeeze him tighter and I press my head against his chest. Chest that once was so soft and comforting, it’s now ice cold and hard.

“Come back to me,” I cried aloud. Nothing. Nothing. I don’t know how.

“P-please..” I begged. My hands go to his shoulder and from there to his face. I’m stroking his cheek with my hand.

A perfect sculpture from ice. That’s what Jack Frost is now. The love of my life.

“I’m.. I’m so sorry Jack.. I failed..” I whimpered and placed my forehead against his.

“I love you,” I whispered and kissed his lips.

A blue glow appeared.  Then I realized that it wasn’t the moon or anything else from outside. It was Jack, his body is glowing and I see how the ice on him is cracking. Now I have hope.

The ice is all fractured and I touch his chest slowly and gently. I have been holding my breath for some time now.

All around me are thousands of ice crystals when he ice exploded. Then I heard him gasping for air and I feel his chest moving up and down fast in the pace of his breathing. I wipe a tear away from my cheek when he opens his eyes, he is still breathing heavily as if he is scared not to be able to breathe again.

Then his eyes looked at me.

His breathing is slowly calming down and his smile is slowly forming on his face. I’m crying, crying the tears of joy as I backed up. I’m sitting on the floor and I’m laughing and crying at the same time.

Slowly he starts to sit, neither of us is blinking our eyes. It is as if we both are afraid that the other one would disappear when we close our eyes. He is still panting as he strokes my cheek with the back of his hand. He smiles then slyly and his thumb brushes a tear away from my cheek.

When I was about to tell him how happy I am he just pressed his front finger in front of my lips. Then he chuckled and smirks to me. “I know Elsa, I know,” he whispers gently and I jump to his neck. We fall back down on the floor and he laughs.

My eyes traveled back to look his cyan blue eyes. The happiness is back in them. “Y-you’re okay again?” I asked carefully.

“You bet, let me show you,” he grinned mischievously as I feel his hand going behind my neck. I lean closer to him and he kisses me. At first it was like innocent kiss, meant to test if I’m ready. And was I ready?

Yeah, I was totally ready for it. When he felt me kissing back he stopped being so exploring with his kiss. It was now like he wanted to get all the kisses that we had missed during the decades that I was gone. I wished the same. My lips move against his, we’re almost melting together. His hand is caring my back as he kisses me and I run my hands through his hair.

We  had to apart from our kiss because we both needed some air. For our disappointment we parted and he kept on looking at me with his dreamy gaze. Slowly he planted a small peck of a kiss to my neck and I embraced him when he rested his head against the crook on my neck.

“I missed you so much,” he whispers and I told him that now I’m here and I would never be gone again.
