Elsa sat in her study, going over some important trade documents. She smiled as she pushed away the papers with "The Southern Isles" and "Weselton" scrawled on them. She didn't want to trade with them for a LONG time, not after what happened before the Great Thaw. Speaking of which, it had been 6 months since she froze Arendelle. It had seemed like it wasn't even that long ago.
As the queen signed another document, Anna peeked her head inside.
"Hey, Elsa," Anna greeted.
"Hello, Anna. Come in," Elsa replied, smiling.
The sisters were able to reconnect after the Great Thaw. They wanted to make up for lost time. Thirteen years of separation felt like forever for them. They were more than happy with each other's company.
"What are you doing?" Anna asked as she walked inside.
"Just signing and going over some trade documents," Elsa said.
"Ooh, make sure you don't sign any for The Southern Isles and Weaseltown," Anna warned.
Elsa chuckled.
"It's Weselton, Anna. And I'm already ahead of you. I have a separate pile for them. When I'm finished, the pile will have a one way ticket to the fireplace," Elsa said, smiling mischievously.
"That's great, Elsa! Can I be of assistance when you 'send those papers away'?" Anna asked, returning her sister's mischievous smirk.
"Of course. I can't do it without you!" Elsa said.
"Yes! I'm excited!" Anna said, jumping up and down.
Elsa laughed and stood up from her chair.
"Whew, I need a break," she said, putting her quill down.
"I'll say! You've been working your bum off all week! I've been bored," Anna said, sticking her bottom lip out.
"Aw, put the lip away. How about this: I'll take the day off tomorrow, and we can have a 'Sister's Day.' Just the two of us. How does that sound?" Elsa offered.
Anna's face beamed with happiness. She suddenly threw her arms around her big sister, nearly knocking her over.
"I'd absolutely love to!" Anna yelled.
Elsa returned her little sister's embrace. Anna broke the embrace after a moment and took hold of Elsa's hands.
"I can't wait! We haven't had a day to ourselves in so long!" Anna exclaimed.
"I know! Do you any activities in mind for tomorrow?" Elsa asked.
"Hmm… we can have a picnic, visit the shops, build a snowman in the ballroom, the possibilities are endless!" Anna exclaimed.
"You're so silly," Elsa said, chuckling.
"But you love me, right?" Anna asked with puppy dog eyes.
"Of course I do! I love you more than anything," Elsa said, kissing her forehead.
"Aww I love you, too!" Anna said.
Elsa smiled warmly, still holding Anna's hands. She suddenly looked down at them and raised an eyebrow.
"You have warm hands, Anna. I don't believe I've noticed that before," Elsa said.
Anna gave her sister a smirk.
"And you call me silly?" Anna asked.
Elsa rolled her eyes and let go of her sister's hands.
"So, what do you want for dinner tonight?" Elsa asked.
Anna gasped excitingly.
"Can you ask the cooks to make Smordampete Nypoteter?" Anna asked.
"Sure," Elsa said.
"And can we have something chocolate for dessert?" Anna asked.
"I think I can arrange that," Elsa said.
"Great! I can't wait!" Anna said.
Elsa shook her head and laughed. She turned back to her piles of papers.
"Well, if we want to have dinner on time, I have to get my work finished," she said, sitting back down.
"Okay! I'll go see what Kristoff's up to. See you soon, Elsa!" Anna said before running.
Elsa's smile could not escape her face. Seeing Anna so happy warmed her heart.
"See you soon, Anna," she said quietly, picking up her quill and getting back to work.
Smordampete Nypoteter is an Norwegian dish, which is butter steamed potatoes.
I hope you liked the first chapter! More chapters are on the way! I haven't written fanfiction for a couple years, so I'm pretty rusty...but please review and let me know how/if I can do better!
Thanks for reading!
