Chapter Text
Give a little time to me...
Thump thump.
Elsa stood frozen in the middle of the room as the beautiful redhead still holding the now empty cups stared at her expectantly. All the noise appeared to fade away in the background. The unidentified thumping beat drowned everything else. How can she see me?
"Listen, I'm really sorry about spilling all over you." the stranger gestured to the floor where remnants of the alcoholic drinks now rested. "Please don't be mad. I'll pay to have your shoes clean, I swear!"
The redhead seemed to grow more frantic as the silence between them stretched further. "You know what? I'll uhh- I'll buy you a new pair. Yes. Even better. I'll buy you a new one. I've told my best friend once that shoe size doesn't matter but in this situation, it really does. Otherwise they won't fit you… Uhh…"
The blonde just can't seem to wrap the idea around her head that a human being was able to see her, much less talk to her. Here was a stunning woman trying her best to apologize to someone who doesn't remember ever starting a conversation with anybody. Her eyes, like the ocean on a summer's day, desperately trying to connect with the blonde's blue ones to drive her point straight. With all of Elsa's experience as an angel of love, an instance such as this has never happened to her. Ever. So the angel kept her stance, silent, unmoving.
"Oh! There you are!" a voice exclaimed right behind Elsa. A woman with dark brown hair wearing a practical but pretty pink dress rapidly approached the redhead's side. "Were you able to find the bar?"
"Uhh, yes. But…" the redhead awkwardly lifted the empty glasses while looking simultaneously between the drenched floor and blonde who still hasn't uttered a single word.
The brunette woman furrowed her eyebrows in a silent question and turned her attention towards Elsa who she eyed from head to toe. Wait, can she see me too? What's happening?
Entirely befuddled, the angel glanced around the crowded room and sure enough, various beings were eyeing her from appreciatively. She shifted uncomfortably while drawing her focus back to the pair ahead of her.
The short brunette sent the blonde a smile before it slowly turned smug as her eyes moved to that of the redhead's. "I see you've found something better?"
A full blush colored the redhead's freckled cheeks before she bumped her hips rather harshly with the brunette's who chortled gleefully. "Alright. Let me take these." The brunette then grabbed both glasses from her before addressing Elsa once more. "I'm her cousin by the way. Knowing her, I'm sure she still hasn't introduced herself."
"Uhm." the pretty redhead mumbled.
"Of course not." the brunette sighed. "I'll just get this started before she rambles again-" A swift jab to her side stopped her short. "This is my wonderful cousin, Anna. She's all kinds of amazing and she only gets this flustered when she really likes someone so you must be truly special."
"Punzie, stop." Anna chided while the blush grew down her smooth neck.
"My name is Rapunzel." the brunette pointed to herself. "It's a mouthful I know. But since my cousin likes you, you can call me Punzie as well." A giggle followed shortly.
"I, uhh-" those were Elsa's first words after what felt like an eternity of silence. She really did not know what to say. All this confusion was starting to get to her. The angel decided to follow Rapunzel's example for the time being. "I'm Elsa."
"Oooh nice name." the brunette glanced at the blonde approvingly. "So, Anna, Elsa. Elsa, Anna." Rapunzel gestured from the redhead to the blonde and vice versa. "On that note, this is my cue to leave. And Anna, buy the lady a drink would you?" Rapunzel sent her cousin a wink and Elsa a small wave before disappearing into the growing crowd.
Once again, the pair was left in the middle of the floor together without empty glasses this time. Elsa observed the redhead, Anna, once more and found that her blush made her freckles stand out even more than usual. Very pretty. After all her silence, she figured it would be best to start this time.
"Hello Anna." the blonde spoke gently.
The redhead's eyes glazed over for a bit before she slightly shook her head as if to clear her thoughts. "I am so sorry about that." Anna released a breath. "I'm sorry about everything honestly. For spilling on you, for rambling, for possibly offending you, for my cousin and for rambling again. Sorry."
Elsa smiled at the beautiful redhead. She can't help but be enamored by this adorable stranger. It was as if it was…inevitable. Like love. Love. Wait, she can see me. That little boy with the stickers. The room suddenly felt a lot smaller. Was she breathing this fast before? The edges of her vision started to appear blurry. She needed to get out.
"D-don't worry about it." the blonde stuttered as she waved Anna off. Elsa backed away slowly and started for the doors.
"Wait!"
The angel felt something encircling her left wrist which halted all her movements. Unbelievable warmth originated from said spot as Anna's hand held her firmly. Elsa had surely never felt anything like this before. It was the kind of warmth that you wan to surrender to, the one you want to be engulfed in, the one you never want to leave. The feeling spread through the blonde's entire being. But as much as Elsa wanted to explore this new sensation, as much as she wanted to stay with the lovely redhead, she knew she needed answers. She needed to clear her head.
"Would you at least let me buy you a drink?" Anna asked sheepishly as she released the blonde's wrist. "Please. It's the least I could do."
The blonde angel locked gazes with the redhead once more. "Perhaps another time?" She studied the beautiful face. She needed to commit this to memory. "I really must go." She added regrettably.
With one last look at hopeful teal eyes Elsa left with disappointment, confusion and the thought of a pretty blush embedded in her mind.
