Chapter 1

"I owe you a sled," Anna presented Kristoff with a brand new sled near the docks of Arendelle.

Kristoff blinked a few times, unbelieving. "Are you serious?"

"Yes!" Anna squealed. "And it's the latest model."

"No, I can't accept this," Kristoff shook his head.

"You have to!" Anna raised her finger, her eyes piercing him and her commanding voice leaving him no escape. "No returns, no exchanges. Queen's orders. She's named you the official Arendelle Ice Master and Deliverer."

"What?" Kristoff gave her a doubtful glance. "That's not a thing."

"Sure it is," Anna waved him off. "And it even has a cup holder."

After a short moment of uncertainty, Anna decided to ask. "Do you like it?"

"Like it?" Kristoff exclaimed and turned to her. "I love it!"

He placed his large hands around her hips and lifted her into the air. He spun her around, completely forgetting that it was the Princess of Arendelle whom he was next to.

"I could kiss you!"

Those words knocked him back to reality. What was I thinking? he cursed himself. He put down on the ground again and averted his eyes. "…I could. I mean I'd like to. I'd…maybe I? We me…I mean, may we? Wait, what?"

Anna's knowing smile reached from ear to ear. She didn't think that the calm and collected Kristoff would suddenly tell her his feelings in such a manner, but she was happy about it nevertheless. She watched his embarrassment with a smile that made the corner of her eyes turn slightly downwards.

"We may," she said and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

Kristoff smiled and put his large, thick arms around her waist. Without hesitating, he put his lips on hers. With a small sigh, she put her arms on his broad back and tilted her head slightly. She felt his powerful arms pulling her closer, his hard chest against hers. She could feel the strength in his arms that he had built up all these years carrying heavy blocks of ice.

Anna could feel the warmth of his lips on hers, and taste his breath. He had her trapped in his embrace. She could feel Kristoff open his mouth slightly and his tongue was trying to dance with hers. With a small smile, she was about to give in when she heard chattering on the side. The common folk of Arendelle had noticed how their princess was kissing a man out in broad daylight.

"Mama! Isn't that Princess Anna?" a small boy asked his mother.

"Shush, be quiet," she said and quickly turned him away.

Blushing from head to toe, Anna pulled away. Carefully she glanced around, hoping that not too many people had seen her.

"I'm sorry that I suddenly, ah…I mean," Kristoff scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.

"C'mon! Let's go," she grabbed his hand and together they walked along the docks.

The pair wandered around Arendelle, enjoining the gentle summer breeze that had returned after Elsa gained control of her powers. As subtle as possible, Kristoff held Anna's hand. He was surprised by how small and soft her hand was. He had to continually remind himself that this was the Princess of Arendelle he had just kissed, and had to handle her with more care than Sven or the blocks of ice he sold for a living.

"Hey guys!" a voice sounded from behind them.

Anna turned around and saw Olaf along with Sven behind him.

"Me and Sven were just-"

Before Olaf could finish his sentence, his eyes locked on Anna's left hand, which was joined with Kristoff's right hand.

With his wooden hands covering his mouth, Olaf jumped up and down with excitement. "Kristoff has finally? Oh, oh oh! We have to tell-"

"You're not going to tell anyone," Anna quickly covered Olaf's mouth, biting her lower lip nervously.

"But why not?"

"The last time I introduced her to a guy, she froze everything," Anna let out an uneasy laugh.

"Oh, ok," Olaf hung his head a little. "Don't worry, your secret is safe with me and Sven. You're not going to tell anyone, right Sven?"

The reindeer shook his head.

"Well, it's not really a secret, half of Arendelle has already seen us…" Anna said with dry laugh, worried that rumors might start.

"If it's not a secret, then I can tell everyone, right?" Olaf said.

"No, no, no," Anna put both of her hands up. "It's a secret. It's a secret."

"So it's a secret that is not a secret, but a secret?"

"Exactly!" Kristoff knelled down. "So just don't tell anyone. Especially not Queen Elsa. Ok?"

"Ohhh, love is so complicated," Olaf snickered. He then turned and wandered off with Sven.

Kristoff stood up pointed at the pair. "Since when have those two become so close?"

—

The sun had gone down and Anna knew that the servants at the caste would be scrambling to find her for dinner. Like the rough gentleman that he was, Kristoff walked her to the gates of the castle.

"See you tomorrow," Anna smiled.

For a moment Kristoff simply stared at Anna. He was struck by how beautiful she as, her rosy cheeks and her long strawberry-blonde pigtails complementing her blue eyes which radiated with love and never ending joy.

He put his arms around her slim waist and pulled her close.

"Kristoff! We're in front of the castle," Anna protested, but was cut short when Kristoff roughly kissed her. At first she resisted, but soon she gave into his hunger. She opened her mouth slightly and she could feel Kristoff's tongue entering her mouth. His thick arms pulled her even closer and she clung to his back. Chest to chest, she could feel his heart beating, his large rough hands around her waist. His tongue caressed her inner cheeks, enjoying the taste of her.

Letting out a sigh, Anna enjoyed this kiss. She could feel Kristoff's hot breath, his heady scent enveloping her. Then suddenly, a voice sounded from the gate.

"Anna!"

Shocked, Anna quickly separated herself from Kristoff's embrace and turned to where the voice came from. It was Elsa. Her eyes were fixed on Anna, her expression giving no clue as to her reaction after seeing her younger sister kiss the Royal Ice Master and Deliverer.

"Elsa! It's not what you think! I'm not, I mean we're not engaged. I mean, we were just, no…we're not getting married."

In her panic, Anna stumbled over her words, remembering how shocked Elsa was when she announced her sudden engagement to Prince Hans.

"We are not engaged," Kristoff quickly chimed in.

"Yes. We are not!"

Feeling slightly disappointed at how quickly Anna agreed, Kristoff lowered both of his eyebrows.

"I mean that in the best way," Anna gave him an awkward tab on shoulder.

Raising her head, Elsa took a step forward, her blue ice dress glittering in the red evening sun.

"Anna, we need to talk," she said.

Anna turned towards Elsa and together they walked into the castle. Just before the gates closed, Anna turned around and gave Kristoff a fleeting glance. With a nervous smile, he waved.

"Whoa, now that didn't go well," Olaf emerged from behind him.

Surprised, Kristoff turned around to find the small snowman. "Where did you come from?"

"I was standing right there the entire time," Olaf pointed to a flower pot a few steps away. Sven stood there, with the flowers in his mouth. "But you and Anna were so busy that you never noticed me."

Kristoff sighed and both of his shoulders sagged. He wondered if Anna was mad at him for kissing her so suddenly. And above all, he could not tell what Elsa's reaction was. Was she mad? Surprised? Confused?

"C'mon buddy, let's go home," he patted Sven on the head.

My first Frozen fanfic! I've tried very hard to get Anna's personality right. Kristen Bell's voice is really what gives Anna her soul, so translating that to words is not easy! Do you think I've gotten Anna right? She's such a strong personality in the movie and Bell's voice acting is so great, it almost feels as if it is impossible to translate Anna's radiating personality into a words only story. Chapter 2 will come very soon! Thank you so much for reading!
