Icy Magical

Chapter 21

"Hey we should probably stop and set up camp. It's almost night," Jack suggested as they reached a clearing. Kristoff protested, "We should continue, we can't stop!" "Yeah, Jack's right, we need to rest. We will reach the castle tomorrow and may need to confront Hans and whoever else there is..." Elsa admitted a bit reluctantly. Olaf nodded his agreement having jumped down from Sven and was wandering around.  Kristoff sighed, "Fine, I can go on my own anyway." He then stubbornly rode Sven out of the clearing and towards the castle in the distance. "Wait!" Jack tried to stop him but he had already gone. Elsa did not seem to be worried about Kristoff and had started to use her powers to create a small cottage and stable for the horses and Sven. Jack turned around and was amazed be the beautifully made ice cottage. "Shouldn't we go after him?" Jack asked when Elsa had finished. "Oh, don't worry, he'll be back. It's getting too dark for him to find his way and he knows it. He'll probably be back with some sort of excuse," Elsa answered cheekily.  Jack chuckled at the notion. Elsa then led her and Jack's horses to the stables while Jack and Olaf entered the cottage to take a look.

"Oooh...it's beautiful..." Olaf commented as soon as he entered the cottage. Jack looked around the cottage. There was a small sitting area and there were three rooms. One of the rooms had two beds, one big, one small. "That must be mine!" Olaf announced as he raced to the bed and stood on it. Just then, Olaf's storm cloud started snowing. "Oh look! It's snowing, in summer!" Olaf exclaimed, seeming to think the whole place was snowing. Jack could hardly keep back his laughter any longer and doubled over, his body shaking with laughter. Olaf didn't seem to notice and stated trying to catch the snow flakes. Jack straightened and started to leave the room only to almost bump into Elsa who was about to come in. A look of surprise flitted across Elsa's face and she flushed red. "Oh, umm, sorry," Elsa mumbled, looking at the floor and flustered at how close Jack was. "It was my fault, sorry." Jack murmured. Up close, Elsa seemed even more beautiful and his heart started to race. He leaned in almost involuntarily and pressed his lips against hers. Her eyes widened in surprise. Her lips felt cool to touch and to his surprise, she kissed back. His hands held her back and pressed her closer to him. She could smell frost and mint on him as her hand crept up his neck and tangled with his hair. He groaned and kissed her harder, pressing her against the wall.
