Chapter 55: It's A Yes Or No Question

All heads turned to the King and Queen of Arendelle while Elsa laughed nervously, squeezing her confused and shocked husband's hand. Anna's face was so priceless; her eyes shrinking into the size of dinner plates, while their parents looked like statues in their awkward stance.

Kristoff smiled knowingly, since he was the first one to know from Elsa, having been told to not tell anyone about her secret until three days before Christmas.

"Heh, did he just say that out loud?" Elsa breathlessly chuckled, folding her arms to prevent fainting.

Aiden blankly questioned, "I'm... I'm going to be a father?"

All eyes were on the platinum blond ice queen now, who shuffled on her seat with beads of sweat trickling down her forehead.

All of those stopped until she gave out a tearful nod and smile.

Aiden gasped, his heart being fed with an overdose of euphoria; his relaxed form suddenly standing and bringing his wife into a happy spin, his black hair swaying around. He paused his actions for a second to look at her tear stricken face, then cupped her face to give her a passionate kiss.

Kristoff nudged his still frozen in shock wife, her mouth hanging agape. He forced down his laughter as a reaction for that priceless face, already shaking I glee that he's going to be an uncle soon.

"Is this true, Elsa? You are with a child?" Iduna asked in shock, her grin so wide her dimples hurt.

"Yes, mama. I'm carrying your grandchild." Elsa smiled tearfully, pulling away from her husband and running up to the woman she called mother, so overwhelmed that now she will be one herself.

Agnarr cheered with his deep voice, declaring to the skies, "I'm going to be a grandpa!"

Another sob escaped the ice queen's lips, tightening her and Iduna's hug. Iduna pulled away all suddenly, laughing as she wiped those precious tears of joy, "We don't want to squish the little growing child, now, would we?" She joked.

"No, not at all." Elsa replied blissfully.

Another body embraced her, her tears staining the queen's dress; but the queen couldn't care nonetheless as she held her bubbly younger sister in her arms, who wanted to squeeze the life out of her. "YOU'RE PREGNANT AND YOU TOLD KRISTOFF OUT OF ALL HUMAN BEINGS FIRST?!"

"A-anna, I think you still might want to be an aunt and a sister..." Elsa rasped uncomfortably.

Anna smiles sheepishly before letting her older sister go, wiping some of her own tears, "Well, what the heck?! I'm going to be an aunt, and you want me to stand like a statue like nothing happened and you and Aiden STILL DON'T WANT TO GIVE ME A DAMN KID TO SPOIL!" She shrieked.

Elsa giggled, "Calm down, Anna."

Anna breathed out, letting out a tearful laugh, "Heh. I'm going to be an aunt. Oh gods above, my sister finally came to her senses—ow!" She yelped, after earning a pinch from the queen.

"But I'm happy for you, Els. I really am.  I swear, you want to cry the life out of me." Anna sobbed, falling dramatically onto Kristoff's arms. Kristoff awkwardly patted her head, looking at Sven for assistance.

Cyra perched on her master's arms, giving out a delightful squawk, "Master! You will finally have a hatchling of your own! Well done!"

Aiden chuckles, hiding his emotional response, "Indeed."

Elsa returned to her husband's side, holding him close, "Do you like my present?" She whispered sweetly, kissing his cheek. Aiden lovingly kissed her forehead in return, breathing out, "It's the best gift you have given me for life. It was enjoyable making it with you—OW!"

Elsa zapped him with a trail of ice that crawled to his skin, a dark blush gracing her cheeks, "Idiot." She muttered in annoyance.

But he's my cute, lovable idiot I happened to be stuck with for eternity.

"I'm happy snowflake, I truly am." He grinned, wrapping his arms around her once again, "I don't care whether if it's a boy or a girl, a prince or a princess. It'll be our little creation, the bridge between fire and ice."

Elsa brushed her nose against his, nervously asking, "Are you ready to become a father?"

"Well, I can't say I am completely ready. But I am surely excited to meet our little frostbite." He chuckled, "But I'm here to take this momentous step with you, snowflake. No harm will come to you or our baby, and fear doesn't stand a chance if ever he or she inherits our powers."

"I'm glad to know that." She smiled, closing her eyes, "I just... I don't know if I'll be a good mother."

"Love are you kidding me? You'd make a GREAT mother." Aiden insisted, "Our child will love you so much. Just like I do," He pushed back a strand of her hair behind her ear, "And I will for eternity. You have a big heart, a beautiful personality, and selflessness. I can't even think of a reason for our baby to not love you."

Elsa kissed his nose, "That makes me feel so much better."

Aiden beamed, "I'm here. And I'm not leaving you both." He whispered softly.

"You wouldn't dare." Elsa smiled.

"I would not, most definitely. I have a stunning wife, an incoming child, lots of milestones and a great family, what can I say?" Aiden laughed.

"What about Mama Helena, Aiden? Has she replied to any of your letters?" Elsa worriedly questioned, "I've sent her almost five already and she hasn't responded to any of them yet. She has to know she's got a grand child, too. It wouldn't be fair."

Aiden sighed, "I'll send her an invite to sail over and visit here. It's not like mother to not reply. Unless.."

"She might be afraid to to face the trolls again, lover," Elsa frowned, "If you get what I am implying."

"It's possible. But it's still strange for her not to reply for almost five letters. The Northern Kingdom isn't even a heavy kingdom to rule, surely there are barely any major obligations for her to attend to." Aiden grimaced, "I'll do my best, snowflake. I'll try with Ronald."

Elsa lightened up, "Alright." She smiled, "Good luck with that, love."

Aiden chuckled, "With that luck from you I have no doubt a reply will be sent."
