Chapter 1 - More Loving Than Usual

The ice was fresh on the frozen lake in the north mountains, the snow having fallen only a few hours earlier. Yesterday, this snowy land was a lush forest, but thanks to a certain ice queen, it was now a beautiful winter wonderland.

Out from the trees, two figures, Queen Elsa and her sister, Princess Anna, walked towards the lake, taking in the cool, refreshing air. They smiled and held hands, Anna wearing her blue winter dress Elsa had bought her the previous Christmas while the queen herself was wearing her usual blue ice dress.

Elsa smiled, putting her hands on her hips. She was very proud of her powers now, no longer wanting to fear them in any way, shape or form. She only wished to use them for good now, the good of making her little sister Anna happy.

Skitting forward to the side of the lake, Anna tapped the ice that had just frozen over. "It's solid Elsa."

"As it should be," Elsa remarked with a slight smirk. "Wouldn't want us falling in would we?"

"Well, I don't think you'd mind being in the frozen water," Anna chuckled, referring to her sister not being bothered by her own ice. "Me on the other hand..."

"I don't know," Elsa said in a rather upbeat tone. "I'd gladly warm you up if you got too cold out here." She ended that sentence with a slight wink.

A soft blush suddenly crept on Anna's cheek. She didn't know why, but the thought of being warmed up by Elsa, the literal snow queen was a little... fascinating in a way. She merely decided to respond in her usual dorky manner, not wanting to bring much attention to it.

"I don't need warming up! I'm already wearing a furry blue jacket!" She stated with a hint of pride.

Elsa's eyes darted down. She looked at the outfit starting from Anna's skirt and dragged her gaze up, at an agonizingly slow rate until she met Anna's eyes with her own. There was an odd twinkle in them. And, all right, maybe Anna wasn't an expert, but she was pretty sure Elsa - or anyone for that matter - had ever looked at her that way before. Her blush intensified.

"I guess you are, huh?" Elsa commented, realising that Anna was growing a little shy. "Like a little furry otter."

What was that even supposed to mean?

"Let's...let's just get back to skating," Anna suggested.

Elsa made a noise of agreement and grasped Anna's hand with one of her own, causing the princess to sigh in relief. This was normal. She wasn't sure how to handle Elsa's weird ogling.

The two of them stepped onto the icy lake, Elsa creating little skates under their shoes for them to slide along the ice with. When Elsa had first given her sister ice skates, Anna had been a little clumsy with them. Now, however, she had practically mastered the art of skating, an ice queen in her own right.

Anna pushed herself forward, twirling on the lake in a beautiful pirouette. She then giggled before coming to a stop. "Come on, Elsa! The ice is getting cold!"

"It already is cold," Elsa remarked, smirking. "But I know it's nice and warm where you are."

Another blush crept over Anna's cheeks. This was the second time Elsa had said something suggestive. Anna shook her head, pushing the thought to the back of her mind.

"Thanks, I hope you don't, uh, mind or anything?" She wasn't sure how to even respond to that. Maybe Elsa wasn't being suggestive at all. It was Anna the one who was interpreting everything incorrectly, so she needed to keep her own peculiarity to a minimum before things got weird.

"Oh I don't mind," Elsa replied, giggling. "I mean, hot and cold make so much sense together," Anna remembered Olaf saying something similar, and it was in relation to his love of summer and since Olaf was created by Elsa… no, Elsa was not flirting with her.

"You alright?" Elsa continued. She skated closer to Anna, putting a supportive hand on the lower part of the girl's back. She hadn't had to do this in months since the princess first began learning. Unfortunately, Anna felt her entire face heat up again and her focus dwindle. This was a bizarre day.

"I'm fine," she replied, adding a small chuckle for good measure.

Soon, the snow queen pulled Anna closer, her beautiful dress shimmering in the sunlight. Elsa gave a slight grin, one of mischief and giddiness, before gently taking Anna's mittened hands into her own.

She stared into Anna's eyes, deeply and very lovingly. "Shall we?"

Blushing, Anna quickly nodded and Elsa then held her sister close, before they started to glide across the ice together, holding hands tightly.

Strange thoughts were running through Anna's mind. Elsa was definitely not being herself. She rarely ever spoke in that manner, not even to her. Was this really her flirting or did Anna bump her head on a rock while on the way to the lake and this was just some weird hallucination?

Elsa's tight squeeze on her hand confirmed it was no illusion.

"Are you okay, Els?"

"I'm doing wonderful, thank you," she said with an air of regal pride, shooting yet another bright smile at Anna.

She was skating backwards, not even looking where she was going which Anna still could not comprehend how that was possible for the life of her. She didn't even have to pay attention to the direction they were going, the path of the movement. Elsa naturally led them without a second thought.

Elsa then sped off around the lake with Anna in tow, using a little of her ice magic as a small jet, twirling around in a particular shape around the middle of the lake. When all was said and done, Elsa stopped in the centre of her shape, closing her eyes and channelling her magic around her.

To Anna's amazement, Elsa's ice erupted into a display of bright colour, the colour of pink. Seeing Elsa's shape, Anna's cheeks turned a deep red. Elsa had skated her a love heart, right in the centre of their little ice rink, and it was glowing just for her.

Smirking, Elsa gave Anna a playful wink and skated back towards her, taking her hands. "What do you think? I worked really hard on it."

Lies, Anna thought. Such an act was trivial to a woman with as much magic as her sister. "It's uhh... Really..."

"Amazing? Astounding? Breathtaking?" She grinned and held Anna close, gently cupping her lower back very tightly with the palm of her hand.

A heart. Elsa really had skated a heart with her for the both of them.

"Your magic always is," Anna murmured. She ran a skate over the edge of some of the light. How it was even glowing, she'd never know. "Is this for me?"

"Of course it's for you, silly!" Elsa stated with a beaming grin, taking her hand.

"Wow, you really… thank you." Was Anna forgetting an important day or something? It wasn't anyone's birthday or some special holiday. She still forgot them sometimes since they didn't celebrate much when the gates were shut.

Elsa smirked, pulling Anna closer to her. Their faces were barely inches apart. Any closer, and they would have been practically kissing. The Queen's baby blues gazed into Anna's teal orbs, the corner of her mouth curved in a very flirtatious manner.

Utterly in awe, Anna felt herself sliding back. Elsa truly had a beautiful face. In fact, she really was one of the most beautiful women in the world, and now that same woman was making romantic advances to her.

Anna tried to comprehend it all. In that one series of events, Elsa had flirted with her more than any of her dream princes or princesses. Was this really happening? Yes, but Anna really didn't know what to say or how to react. How does one react when their gorgeous sister is flirting with them?

A cold hand touched Anna's cheek, and the princess felt her sister's forehead touch her own.

Smiling, Elsa brought them closer together, before finally saying the words, "You're so very welcome."

A bit of a delayed response, but Anna didn't care. She choked on any words that were trying to come out and forgot how to breathe.

Finally, Elsa released them. It could have been seconds or minutes. Anna wouldn't have known. She took a deep inhale and then released it, pressing gloved fingers against her temples. That really just happened. She was this close to kissing her sister, and she didn't exactly mind it either. The one thing holding her back was the sheer shock of the situation. How to even go about it and initiate it.

"Wanna go for another spin?" The Queen offered. "The sun is in the sky and this lake will be frozen all day." She held her sister's hand tightly.

"S-Sure," Anna shyly responded, humbly agreeing to the queen's request. She was starting to enjoy Elsa being so forwarded, but how she would tell the woman herself about it she didn't know. At least, she would still enjoy Elsa's company here in this beautiful winter scene.

Later that evening, after a long day of skating with a snowball fight or two in between, the two sisters returned home to their castle in Arendelle, Anna quite exhausted after gliding across the ice all day. She yawned and made her way into the entrance hall, her legs aching.

"Man... I didn't know you could skate like that," She remarked, as Elsa joined her, not even tired by one bit. But then again, Anna always knew her sister was more than human.

Elsa leaned down, quickly kissing Anna on the cheek. "I'm much more than meets the eye, Anna," she reminded her. "I'll have Gerda run you a bath to soothe those aching legs."

"Good," Anna agreed, trying her best to stretch her agony-filled thighs. "Warm water will ease my joints."

Smiling, the Queen left her in peace. "I'll see you for dinner then." And with that she headed off to her own bedroom, giving the young princess, much needed privacy and space.

Anna sighed, groaning as she stumbled up the stairs, taking unbuttoning her jacket and heading towards her own room. On the way, all she could think of was Elsa, Elsa and her flirty ways. Since when did sisters love each other like that? Well, quite a few obviously. Arendelle was one of the few kingdoms that accepted consensual incest relationships between siblings.

But her and Elsa? Anna had never thought of them like that. Sure, they had grown up together and spent every day together, but Anna always thought they were just friends nothing more. Then again, she didn't know much about love and its mysterious ways.

After the bath had been drawn for her, Anna finished getting undressed. She sighed as the warm water surrounded her aching joints and tender muscles. She could definitely spend a bit of time in here. Unfortunately, that also meant she could spend a bit of time processing everything that occurred today better. The compliments, the smirking, the heart. Had Elsa really meant all that, or was Anna looking too much into it?

And if it was the case. If Elsa truly had those kinds of feeling for her… then what? How Anna even acted upon them could happen a million different ways. She definitely felt the same. No question there.

Romantic reciprocation had to be treated tenderly and carefully, though. The last thing she needed was to put Elsa off by doing the wrong thing. No that wasn't even an option. She couldn't do the wrong thing. Anna couldn't scare her sister or make things awkward between them by being a dunce like usual. Not about something as fragile as… love.

She'd have to ask for advice later. Last time she came to a conclusion like this before, it was pretty far misplaced. Kristoff would know what to do.

Once her bath was finished, the young princess was soon changed into her beautiful green evening dress, the one she knew Elsa liked from her coronation ball. She figured if Elsa was going to be flirting with her, she might as well encourage it by wearing Elsa's favourite dress of hers.

Anna headed to the dining hall, trying to make sure all her shampoo had been washed from her strawberry blonde locks and said hair was neat in its bun, held together by her green hair clip. She skitted up to the door, before making a polite knock upon it.

The door was soon opened by one of the castle servants, to whom Anna bowed in respect. She then made her way to the table, licking her lips.

Elsa was at the other side of the table, still wearing her ice dress but now having done her hair up in a bun and wearing an icy tiara in her hair. Her cold blue, sensual eyes were gazing at Anna from where she sat, making the young princess very shy.

"I see the bath did you a world of good," she commented, as Anna took her seat. "Maybe we should have bathed together."

Flushing red, Anna looked at her food, before cutting up a piece of steak and putting it into her mouth, chewing softly. Elsa was on the offensive already.

"Maybe we should," she replied, trying her best to respond. "I bet you look great with your hair down- Out- Oh." She blushed again.

Giggling, Elsa adored the fact that Anna was trying to flirt back. This was going to be quite the cute little game between the two royal sisters.

Anna went to her drink, taking a large gulp before wiping her lips with her mouth. Even then, Elsa still giggled. There was nothing Anna couldn't do that wouldn't make the beautiful queen happy.

God, she has a cute laugh, Anna admitted, her cheeks rosy pink. She knew Elsa was beautiful, but adorable, that was new. Anna was supposed to be the cute one, but here she was, lost in Elsa's adorable gaze. Help.

"Don't get too drunk, Anna," Elsa cautioned. "I'd like to make sure you get a good night's sleep, without a hangover." She then winked, inferring that she wanted to escort Anna to her room like a gentleman.

The princess hid her face behind her cup, now completely overcome by Elsa and her seductive advances. Why did her sister have to be so enticing? Where had she learned all these flirty skills? Perhaps she had always known them, some secret love magic that she had never told Anna.

Soon, dessert arrived for the two of them, consisting of chocolate and ice cream, made with Elsa's ice powers of course. As Anna spooked a piece of the frozen treat into her mouth, she watched Elsa calmly and comfortably help herself to some chocolate, chewing it slowly and thoroughly.

Even her eating is cute, Anna's mind wandered as she observed. Part of her wanted to try flirting back at Elsa, wanted to try and win her heart, but Anna knew she would be completely outclassed by her sister.

Anna didn't need to be psychic to tell that Elsa was completely in love with her at this point, and strangely... Anna was in love with her back. She did feel the same, but she was such a shy dork, she couldn't even say it.

By the time dinner was over, it was well past Anna's bedtime. She got up from her chair and walked over to Elsa, giving her sister a warm, loving hug.

"Goodnight, Anna," Elsa said, in a soft, almost motherly tone. "I'll see you in the morning."

"Goodnight... My Queen," Anna replied, blushing and turning before making her way to her bedroom in the castle. Today had been a rather strange day for the young princess indeed, but she knew that she would get the courage to tell Elsa she loved her.

When she had reached her room and changed into her nightgown, before lying down in her bed, she wondered if everything would still be the same after she told Elsa her feelings. Sisterly affection was one thing, but romance was another.

Very pressing questions indeed, but the young princess of Arendelle was a patient girl, most of the time. She then closed her eyes and let herself drift off into the pleasant embrace of sleep.
