Pinky Promise (chap 25)
Elsa's POV
"Elsa Winters. I promise that I will always be by your side when you need me. I promise that I will always be there for you, but only if you also promise me" Jack said
Maybe, maybe just this once, would I go with the part of me that cheered me on. The part of me that tried to convince me that there might be a happy ending
I was shaking furiously.
All my memories flooding back. The most painless ones and the most painful ones.
I didn't know why, but I slowly raised my pinky, watching it shake furiously in front of me.
Our pinkies slowly intertwined.
Jack's POV
This time I was determined to keep this promise.
I looked straight into Elsa's eyes.
For the first time in forever, she smiled at me.
Even if it was the smallest smile, it was a smile. Elsa was still shaking.
I could tell she was scared. Scared of trusting me. Scared that I would break my promise. Our promise.
We sat for a few seconds, with out pinkies curled up against each other. Just staring at each other.
I fixed it. I fixed the promise. Now I needed to fix our trust.
Then the door creaked open
Anna's POV
Oookaaayyy
So I come downstairs to check on my sister. I mean, her little sister just took a bullet for her! I wanted to see if she was ok!
And the first thing I see is my sister, with Jack Frost in her bed. ALONE!
I noticed their pinkies were intertwined. Their heads shot toward me.
"What the heck is going on here!" I yelled/whispered. I didn't want to wake everyone up.
"Calm down Anna, nothing happened" Elsa said.
I went over to Jack and grabbed his ear then pulled him out of the room
"ow ow ow OW!" Jack winced.
"What's up with you and my sister?!"
"N-Nothing! I-I just needed to fix something. Something that I broke a long time ago" Jack's expression softened
"What did you need to fix?"
"A promise"
I didn't need to know anymore. Promises are what kept me alive.
I let Jack go to his room, then I walked into Elsa's room.
She was still sitting in the same position, staring at her pinky finger. Shaking.
"Hey Els? You okay?" I asked
She lifted her head, still shaking. Then nodded.
I felt as if she needed some time alone. So I left to my room.
Elsa's POV
I didn't know how to handle it. Everything swirled inside of me.
My soul couldn't handle it. I stared at my pinky. So many promises that I couldn't keep, but so many that I've kept for so long, long enough that even the person who I'd made the promise to has forgotten.
He promised me. And I promised him.
But so many promises broken. He was the first one to mend one.
I felt as if I was being consumed by myself. My memories slowly taking over me. Drowning me in them.
But those memories, those promises are the reasons I'm alive. But I know that maybe one day, they might be the cause of my death.
I looked at my bloodstained dress. This piece of cloth will be a reminder. A reminder of my mistakes and my failures. I won't put anyone through the pain of washing it. No more pain.
No more pain. I'm begging you to stop the pain.
This dress would be a reminder that I wasn't quick enough. That I wasn't smart enough. That I would never be ready.
But it would also be my encouragement. This dress would remind me that I need to work to be stronger. I need to try harder to be smarter. I needed to be ready, ready for everything.
There are only a few things you can take from me now. The only things I had left.
I'm sick of trying so hard and never succeeding! Why am I stuck in this cruel world.
But I always seem to forget, that no matter how cruel it may seem. There will always be beauty in this world.
The beauty of life and promises. The way the flowers bloom and the trees grow. It shows that even the smallest seed can grow into the most magnificent tree.
Just so it can be cut down by a selfish human being.
Everyone is torn by the decision. Are you the cutter, or are you the tree?
All my thoughts trapped inside of me, unable to escape. Or is it just that I locked them up.
I tried my best to stand up. I didn't know how to feel. I didn't know how to react.
I walked over to the dresser and changed into a tank top and shorts. It was all I had.
I folded up the bloody shirt and laid it out on my desk.
I looked out the window, staring at how beautiful the stars looked in the night sky. When I was younger I used to wish that maybe one day I could learn to fly and join them in the sky, next to the bright, beautiful moon.
Slowly I crawled into my bed. Maybe, tonight would be the night that I didn't have nightmares. That's all I really needed. All I needed was a dream.
Jack's POV
I walked to my room, cautiously touching my pinky.
I felt as if I'd just picked up a big chunk of myself and glued it back on.
Carefully, I crawled back into my bed. Pulling my snowflake sheets over me. Maybe tonight I could sleep peacefully.
My eyes shut slowly, taking in every last second I had while I was awake.
And I drifted off to sleep.
-In Jack's dream-
I woke up in a sunny meadow. In the middle of the tall grass.
Everything looked so bright, so happy. So peaceful.
I noticed the outline of a figure I. The distance. As it got closer and closer I could tell who it was.
It was Elsa. She was wearing a long white sundress and a sweater that was a bit too big for her.
"Jack?" Elsa asked.
"Elsa?" I looked at her, then something clicked.
All the beauty turned to horror, the plants had died, the sun disappeared and the sky was gray.
I looked at Elsa's hand. She was holding a knife. A bloody knife.
"I'm sorry!" She screamed
"I DIDNT HAVE A CHOICE!"
The first thing that came to my mind was Pitch. Did Elsa kill Pitch?
Then shadows erupted from behind her and begun to pull her towards a black hole in the ground.
"ELSA!" I ran to try and grab her hand.
A giant crack rumbled to the surface separating us.
I ran as fast as I could, if I picked up enough speed I might be able to save her.
Just as I was about to jump, something grabbed me from behind.
It was a shadow, but a familiar shadow.
Then I realized who it was.
My mother.
I screamed at her to let me go, but she just looked at me and smiled.
"You've been a bad child Jack, you need to be punished"
She got up and flew straight through me. It felt like I was being stabbed, I could feel the blood leaking through. But when I looked down, nothing was there.
I was stuck. I tried to yell but my voice had just disappeared. All I could do was watch Elsa being consumed by the shadows.
Just listening to her screams. I felt worthless and useless.
I watched in terror as I looked at Elsa. After they finished attacking her, all of the shadows moved out of the way. And all that was left was Elsa's shadow.
-Kevin, that's the intro to the flashback music. We need the outro for the dream music. No Kevin! that's a goat! don't put it in the record player! you know what just let me do it-
I woke up shaking. It was all a dream. Just a dream.
Or should I say, nightmare.
A/N this chapter was a bit too deep, but that's what happens when you listen to sad music while writing a fanfic. Ugh the feels are taking over me! Believe me I would fire Kevin, but he's the only one who signed up for the job. Oh well. We got a pet goat on the set though! tell me what you want his name to be in the comments. But anyways I hope you enjoyed. See ya later ma potatoes!
Whoops, almost forgot the waffles
*throws waffles at the audience*
