Elsa sighed as she heard giggles just outside her room for the hundredth time, as she wrote her journal for today. Her journal consisted of her adventures, her thoughts and her pain. It was one of the most treasured things she protected with her life, because this journal was everything to her. It knew all of her secrets and pains. Her thoughts were interrupted by a loud knock on the door followed by another giggle.
She knew who it was just from the sound, and this made her roll her eyes. "Elsa? May we come in?" She heard her sister Anna said. Elsa sighed for the second time and closed her journal, opened her drawer and stuffed it in, hoping no one can find it. She cleared her throat before answering, "Yes, you may." She replied.
Anna barged inside with a loud noise which made Elsa jump in surprise, but quickly composed herself. "What do you want, Anna?" She asked her. Anna, however, just smiled at her sister and turned her head back at the opened door. "You can come in, Kristoff!" She exclaimed, excitement filled in her voice as Kristoff walked in the room.
Elsa turned to Kristoff and arched an eyebrow at him. She blinked and looked at Anna, confusion shown on her blue eyes. "What's going on?" She asked and crossed her arms at the two of them. Anna beamed and clasped both of her hands. "We would like to ask your permission!" She exclaimed once again and turned to Kristoff and held his hand.
Elsa furrowed her eyebrows as she stared at the duo. "About what?" She asked again and this time, she was listening intently and leaned in closer. Kristoff smiled and held Anna's hands, turned to Elsa and said, "We were planning on a vacation. Just to relax and stuffs, you know? We'd like to go to Corona, if that's okay with you?" He hesitantly asked.
She was taken aback that Kristoff was the one who answered instead of Anna. Elsa continued to stare back and forth at them and sighed. She scrunched her eyebrows and looked at Anna. "Please, Elsa. If you want, you can come with us! You really need the relaxation and Corona is the best place to go! And at the same time, we can visit our cousin, Rapunzel. So, what do you say?" Anna explained to her sister and waited for her answer.
Elsa, however, wasn't comfortable with the thought of leaving Arendelle alone. She was the queen, of course. Who would look after Arendelle without her? As much as she wants to relax and visit her cousin, she had to stay. She needed to stay. Everyone was depending on her so she had to do her duties, responsibly and wisely.
She sighed and shook her head. "I'm sorry Anna but I can't. You and Kristoff go, I'll just stay and look after the kingdom and wait for your return." She said and looked down at the carpet below her feet. Anna's face fell as she heard her words. "But, Elsa.." She whispered and let go of Kristoff's hand. Elsa looked up and forced a smile on her face. "I-it's okay.. You guys go and enjoy yourselves. Don't think of me as a burden Anna, please."
As soon as she said those words, she felt something prick her heart. Elsa quickly shook it off and stared at them with a small smile on her face. Anna, seemed to understand her sister's situation and only nodded, "Okay Elsa. We'll be leaving tomorrow." She said her voice raspy and quickly grabbed Kristoff's hand. "Well, we better go and pack." And without another word, she dragged Kristoff out of Elsa's room with heavy footsteps and closed the door behind them.
Elsa tried to blink the tears away as soon as they were gone. This was her problem. She had no one. Unlike Anna, she had Kristoff and Elsa knew that sooner or later, they were going to get married, which left her with no one. She felt a heavy weight on her shoulders as she swallowed the lump on her throat.
There has got to be someone out there for me. She thought as she watched the snow fall outside her window.
My name is Elsa and this is my story.

"It's not working out, Jack."
Jack froze as he heard the words he dreaded, escaped her lips. He furrowed his eyebrows and stepped closer to her. "W-what do you mean?" He stuttered. He hoped that he only heard wrong and shook it off. Jack looked at her, anticipation shown on his blue eyes.
Tooth, however, only looked down at the ground. She avoided eye contact with Jack, for she knew that her words will only hurt him even more. "I'm so sorry, Jack." She whispered and closed her eyes for a brief moment, waited for Jack to yell at her. However, she received nothing. Not, neither a single word nor a sound. Tooth looked up at him to find tears threatening to fall on his eyes.
"What?" He whispered, barely audible but she heard him clear. "No, this can't be happening.." He said and blinked his tears away before they fall on his face. He tugged his silver hair with his hands and looked down. "This can't be happening, again." Anger rushed through his veins as he continued to tug on his hair.
"Jack, please-"
"No! Shut up!" He yelled as he punched a nearby wall, feeling it crack under his fist. Blood started to ooze out of his clenched fist as he continued to punch the wall, mercilessly. "Jack, stop!" Tooth yelled, but Jack blocked her protests as he punched the wall, continuously until he felt all his anger disappeared.
He dropped his bloody fists as he breath heavily. Jack clenched his jaw as he felt blood dripping from his fists to the cold ground, forming crimson dots. Tooth watched in horror as he continued to take deep breathes and looked up at her. "What did I do wrong?" He whispered and his voice cracked at the end as he swallowed the lump on his throat.
"Jack, it's not you-"
"Don't give me that shit!" He screamed and punched the wall again, making Tooth flinched. "I've heard enough of that in my life.." He continued as he removed his fist on the wall, feeling the pain coursed through out his body. However, he ignored the antagonizing pain and continued to stare at her. "Please. Just tell me."
Tooth looked away with guilty eyes and gulped. Jack narrowed his eyes at her as she continued to fiddle with her fingers. An idea came to his mind and his eyes widen in shock. He gasped as he covered his mouth with his bloody hand. Jack pointed an accused finger on her. "There's someone else, isn't it?"
Her eyes widen and looked up at Jack, even guiltier. He saw Tooth's guilty eyes and immediately, anger rushed through his veins. He removed his hand from his mouth and fought the urge to punch the wall again. Jack furrowed his eyebrows as he watched Tooth, anger and confusion shown on his blue eyes. "Who is it?" He asked her.
"Who the fuck is it?!" He yelled once again and closed his eyes, trying to calm himself before he can do something unacceptable. Tooth flinched at Jack's voice and replied shakily, "Y-you don't need to know, Jack. Just please, calm down."
"How the fuck can I calm down, when the girl that I love is in love with someone else? I thought you knew me, Tooth. I thought you were the one." Jack chuckled and turned away from her. "But, I guess I was wrong." He continued.
"I'm so sorry, Jack. I hope you can forgive me. It's for the best." She said and felt tears build up on her purple eyes. "Just leave, Tooth." He snapped at her and faced his back on her. Tooth sighed and walked away from him, leaving Jack alone in the open forest.
Jack heard Tooth's footsteps slowly fading. As soon as he heard her footsteps disappeared, he looked up at the bright moon, sadness and longing shown on his eyes. "Why?" He whispered to the cold night air and looked down at his bloody hands. He quickly went to the river beside him and washed his hands.
When his hands were finally blood-free, he felt his hands sting and flinched. He sighed as he continued to stare at the bruise that was starting to form on his hand. 'North is going to be pretty mad when he sees this..' He thought bitterly to himself and looked up at the moon again.
'There has to be someone out there for me..' He thought and quickly shook his head at the silly thought. 'No, face it Jack. You're all alone.'
Fuck, love.
My name is Jack Frost and this is my story.
At the bottom of every frozen heart, there is a drop or two of love.
