Chapter 19: Ice Cold Bucket

18:17, 3 February 2020

Elsa

It's been a while after that competition. Jack and Peter stayed the same. Like cats and dogs. Always arguing about little things, though they did agree on one thing, once. Once only.

"Come on Elsa!" Anna yelled. I forgot to tell you that we're at the backyard. It's Saturday so they said we should hangout.

"Aye lass! Come play with us!" Mer said. They were playing tag like the little kids. I laughed.

"No thank you." I said. Hiccup, who was late, came in with his hair and clothes wet.

"What happened to you? Was there a storm that hit you or something?" Jack said while laughing.

"No. I actually did the ice bucket challenge. Astrid nominated me." Hiccup said arranging his glasses.

"Then who did you nominate?" Peter asked.

"There are three people that I nominated for three buckets." Hiccup said.

"And those are Jack, Elsa and lastly Peter." Hiccup added. What?! I'm also nominated?!

"Ohh this is gonna be fun!" Anna said excitedly. Fun for you. You want have to be wet with an ice cold bucket full of.... well... ice.

"Why the heck would you nominate me?!" Jack complained.

"Because you said you like the cold." Hiccup said. Jack gave a very long lecture about him liking the cold in a different way. Believe me, it was pretty long. But Jack had to give up and do the challenge anyway.

Three buckets of ice was gathered in a row in front of three chairs. Mer, Anna, and Anna's friend Melody stood near the chairs. The chairs were near at the swimming pool.

"Worst day ever." I muttered.

"Just sit." Peter said sitting on a chair at the left. Jack was about to sit in the middle but smirked and went to the right instead. I rolled my eyes.

"Are you really gonna put me in the middle?" I asked with a glare at the two mischievous boys. They just laughed. I sat on the middle and looked at Hiccup. He was holding a camera.

"Really?" I muttered.

"Ready?" Hiccup asked.

"Yeah!" Jack and Peter said in unison.

"Elsa?" Hic said. I sighed.

"Ready as I'll ever be." I said.

"We wanna nominate these three holding the bucket for the ice bucket challenge!" Peter said pointing at the three.

"Yeah!" Jack and I agreed. Here goes nothing.

Jack

I looked at Elsa who seems to be muttering something.

"The cold never bothered me." She kept whispering. Those words. They seem so familiar.

"Here it goes!" Anna said pouring the bucket to me. I closed my eyes. I here Elsa scream because of the cold. Peter was already at the pool. When it stopped pouring I dived in the pool.

"Man that is cold!" I yelled.

"Yeah." Elsa agreed. We all went out of the pool.

"Can't feel my feet!" Peter said jumping.

"Aren't you cold?" I asked Elsa. She smiled.

"The cold never bothered me anyway." She said.

-Lexter! Turn on the flashback switch! - Narrated by the author

"The cold never bothered me anyway." The little girl said. (A/n: no, it's not Elsa. I'm telling you, she's a girl from Jack's past. And her name is a big puzzle piece so I won't say it. Yet)

"So it's alright to you to not wear a jacket?" Little Jack said.

"I like the cold surrounding me." The girl said catching a snowflake. Little Jack removed his jacket and put it around the girl.

"What are you doing? You might catch cold." The girl told Jack.

"The cold never bothered me too." Jack smiled and so did she.

"Come along you two! I have hot chocolate!" A woman in her 30's called.

"Yes mommy!" The girl said.

"Come on!" She said as she pulled Jack.

-stop the flashback sequence Lexter! You might reveal something! - back to Jack's POV

"Jack! You still there?" Elsa said snapping her fingers in front of me. I suddenly went back to reality.

"Yeah. Come on let's change." I said wrapping a towel around Elsa.

Anna

I watched Elsa and Jack go in our house together. Peter came in after.

I know Peter liked my sister for a long time. He told me that. He just never had the guts to tell my sister. And now, I think it's gonna be pretty hard to tell her, considering Jack is now getting closer to her.

"Anna! This is the best day ever!" Melody said. I laughed. This girl is a big fan of Jack. And I can tell she is now feeling so excited for getting this closed to him.

"You think so! I still need to get ready for the challenge." I laughed.

"I can't believe Jack Frost nominated me!" She jumped.

"Technically Peter did." I joked.

"But He agreed making him nominating me too!" She jumped. I laughed at her.

"Yeah yeah." I said.

Elsa

I stared at Jack while He was facing back. I already changed and so did Jack. Jack was looking around my room. I was wondering why He suddenly spaced out when I said the cold never bothered me. That was...... weird.

"Hey is this you?" Jack pointed to my picture when I was 15. I laughed.

"I look ridiculous don't I?" I said. I was wearing a princess costume that time. It was Halloween that time.

"You actually look cute." He said. I blushed slightly.

"So that's why Peter calls you princess." He said. I looked at him weirdly.

"You look like a real princess." He added. I looked at him and saw a very big smile. But I see as tint of sadness in his eyes. I wanted to ask but there was something that was telling me not to. I feel so bad about him. Those eyes looked like they were happy but if you look deep into them you'll see sadness.

Smile really is the mostly used mask by people. Not knowing what I was doing, I hugged him. He seemed shocked but he hugged back.

Jack

What is this feeling? I feel so weird around her, around Elsa. No, this can't be. I... have to stop this. Jack get a grip of yourself. You know you have someone already, what will happen to her if you fall for Elsa. What about your promise? You'll break both their heart if you continue this. Besides, Elsa has Peter. So it's a win win. I decided. I should stay away from her. Leave her with Peter. At least he'll take care of her.

----/----/----/----

OH MY GLOB! OH MY GLOB! The feels! Jack why?! Who the heck are you talking about?! (throws chairs at Jack) Joke! Of course I know who it is. And she is obviously not Elsa. She's... .........Mother Gothel. Ha Ha joke! (Makes peace sign) but seriously, Jack has a pretty messed up life. So does Elsa. And to know why the key is their past. The missing parts that you know about them. And I call them puzzle pieces. (Door opens and Lexter walks in)

A: What the heck are you doing here?!

L: I thought we were gonna continue the talk about the puzzle pieces?

A: dude you came late! I already told them!

L: no fair! Begin it again.

A: no can do Mister! I'm too lazy to type it again! If you want just look it up!

L: but...

A: no buts! Buts are for popping now get outta here! (Pushes Lexter away)

Now, where were we? Oh right! The f Jack! You're crushing my feels! This is a Jelsa story for Pete's sake! Whhhhhhyyyyy?!!!!!!!!!!
