Chapter 14 - The Giving Of Thanks

Montana was a beautiful state, as Elsa noticed from the comfort of the passenger seat of the car she was riding in. With tall mountains, rolling hills and vast fields, it reminded her of Arendelle quite a fair bit. It seemed like it was fate for Anna to have grown up here.

Landing at the airport had been more or less a walk in the park for them, aside from the fact that Anna was still very much fast asleep on the plane after it had landed. She really was a heavy sleeper at high altitude. Once she had been woken by a sleeping beauty style kiss from Elsa, the two women had gotten their bags and luggage and hired a rental car to drive to where Anna's family lived.

As they were cruising down the highway, Elsa stretched her arms and yawned. She herself was starting to grow tired. Perhaps a nap, once she was at Anna's house, was in order.

"Hey, don't you be falling asleep on me, Queenie," Anna jested, nudging her arm. "I'd rather my parents got to meet you wide awake."

"I'm not falling asleep," Elsa groaned. "I just... want to rest my eyes that's all." She sighed. "Okay fine. It's not my fault your driving of this thing is so gentle it's lulling me to sleep."

Anna giggled. "You should have slept on the flight Elsa. I told you it would have been good for you.

"I know, I know," Elsa agreed, regrettably. "How far is it now?"

"Just over ten miles to go," Anna stated. "Oh one fair warning, my siblings tend to be a little... on the overexcited side. It's a family thing really, so I hope that doesn't affect you."

"Anna I've put up with you for the past seven months," Elsa giggled. "Seven more of you should be no problem for me."

Ten miles later, Anna and Elsa caught the sight of a rather large, wooden farmhouse on the horizon. The place was fairly old looking, possibly having been built several decades ago. Yet the paint on the outside and some other modern improvements like a satellite dish made it look very up to date.

Behind the building, there was a large field with several cows grazing upon it, along with a large barn at the bottom of the field.

Elsa was a little in awe at the sight, leaning forward in her seat. "I thought you said you didn't grow up on a ranch, Anna."

"I didn't," Anna corrected Elsa. "I grew up on a farm."

As they pulled up into the driveway, where there were already various cars parked already, Anna eyed around to see if anyone was there. Strangely enough, there didn't seem to be anyone around.

"This is odd," Anna admitted. "I was sure at least one of my folks would be out to meet us."

"Maybe they're at work?" Elsa wondered.

Anna raised an eyebrow. "It's Thanksgiving. No one works on thanksgiving Elsa. It's a public holiday."

"Ohhh right, my mistake," Elsa blushed a little with embarrassment.

The two of them got out of the car, Anna leading Elsa up the drive to the front of the house. It seemed pretty calm in the early evening, where only the sounds of robins and cuckoos could be heard in the trees. However, it felt a little... too quiet for Anna's tastes.

Stepping towards the front door, Anna felt the handle, realising the house was unlocked. "Huh, they left the door unlocked."

"How curious," Elsa added. "Do we go in?"

"I don't see why not," Anna replied.

Twisting the handle, the young redhead and her platinum blonde lover entered the abode of the Penrose family, being met with a rather homely looking entrance hall. The house was very enclosed on the inside, but not too much that they wouldn't feel claustrophobic.

As Elsa put her jacket on a nearby peg, she noticed a picture on the wall. She saw it was of a man with Anna's hair, a woman with darker brown hair and several young girls and boys all with similar hair colours at his side. On the man's lap, there was a little girl, possibly no more than two years old. She had bright teal eyes and looked very adorable.

"Awww," Elsa cooed.

Anna smiled. "I know, I was adorable... and a nightmare."

"You're always adorable to me," Elsa said, feeling her tummy rumbling. "Oh dear."

"You're hungry already?"

"We were on the road for over five hours, Anna," the blonde queen then reminded her.

Sighing, Anna put her own jacket on the nearby peg. "Come on, your majesty. Let's go and see what we can grab from the kitchen. I'm sure my folks don't mind us having a quick snack before the big dinner later on."

Leading her girlfriend through the house, Anna couldn't help feeling a little nostalgic seeing her house again. Memories flowed of the times she and her siblings would run around these halls as children, to the times when she and her friends would have slumber parties and good times were had.

Good times indeed, although, Anna knew nothing from her past would compare to the time she spent with her beloved Elsa.

As they walked into the kitchen, Elsa noticed the lights were completely dark in the room, whereas the lights had been on everywhere else in Anna's house. "Umm... What's going on here?"

Suddenly the lights turned on and a chorus of voices cheered out. "Welcome home!"

Anna gasped in surprise, recognising the faces that those voices belonged to. Hiding behind a counter was her parents, along with her oldest sister Jennifer. To the left side of the counter, there were two more girls, twins with the same hair and eyes as Anna. On the right were Anna's three brothers, everyone with a big happy smile in their faces.

"Hello, Anna," Anna's father spoke up, smiling at his youngest daughter. "Welcome back to the nest."

"Hey dad," Anna responded, nearly moved to tears. "I've missed you too."

Running over to her family, Anna embraced her parents and siblings in a warm group hug. Anna's face scrunched up as she was held by many arms. She had very much missed these hugs.

Just then, one of Anna's sisters spied Elsa, grinning. "Hey there, who are you?"

"Oh," Anna spoke, pulling out of the hug and rushing to Elsa's side, taking her arm. "Guys this is my girlfriend, Elsa."

Elsa waved a little, blushing shyly. "Hello, Anna's family."

"Anna's brought a girl home!" Another one of Anna's sister's cheered as several of the family swarmed over Elsa. Anna couldn't help giggling as her mother admired Elsa over, taking notes about every detail she could gather about her daughter's new lover.

"She has beautiful hair and skin," Anna's mother complimented. "Oh, you're going to do well for our Anna."

"Um... thank you," Elsa said, a little awkward.

"Now, now everyone," Anna's father gestured. "Now that the surprise is over, I'm sure Anna and her girlfriend would like some space. It's not a big house, but we should at least give them that."

"Thanks, dad," Anna said with a smile.

"N-No, it's okay," Elsa stated. "I... actually quite like the attention and I would love to get to know your family a little more, Anna."

"Knock yourself out, Elsa!" Anna chirped, grinning brightly. "Oh and guys, try not to break my girlfriend. I'll be needing her later tonight."

Anna's siblings giggled and Elsa blushed a deep bright red. God, she loved how forward and direct Anna was with her innuendos.

Once Elsa and Anna's siblings were in the front room chatting away about everything and nothing, Anna's parents brought her to a quiet corner of the house where they could have a one on one chat. They hadn't seen their daughter in person for just over a year and were very keen to catch up.

"So who's idea was the big surprise anyway?" Anna wondered.

"It was your mother's," Anna's father stated. "I admit, we thought you might have been a bit too old for that sort of thing, but she was very... persistent."

"But enough about us, let's talk about youuu," Anna's mother chimed on. "Like where did you find such a beautiful girlfriend."

"Well... Um..." Anna rubbed the back of her head. "We're actually neighbours. She accidentally scared me the day I moved into my new place in Newbury, but we made up... and out... and now we're a thing. Isn't that crazy?!" She laughed.

Stroking her daughter's cheek, Anna's mother was filled with nothing but pride for her youngest child. "You always were the crazy one, Anna. and we're very proud of you."

"Thanks, mom and dad," Anna said, her face beaming with a very adorable smile.

Getting up, Anna's mother walked towards the kitchen. "Excuse us for a second Anna. Your father promised he'd help cook dinner tonight."

"Oh yes, so I did," Her husband remembered. As he followed his wife into the kitchen, Anna rested her head back on the sofa. She sighed and relaxed, before looking up a few seconds later and seeing a very familiar face walking towards her.

It was Elsa, a bright cheery smile on her face. As she sat down, she took Anna's hand. "Looks like you're getting tired again too."

"Nah, I can keep my peepers wide open," Anna told her girlfriend, before kissing her. "I thought you were talking to my siblings."

"I was... they seem nice," Elsa admitted. "Your brother Tim was a bit of a handful."

Anna laughed. "Oh yeah. He's only a year older than me and still acts like he's a little kid. What about the girls? Did you like Cindy and Ella? and Jen?"

"Jen reminds me a lot of myself," Elsa spoke. "And your twin sisters... well, you seem to have a lot in common with them." She kissed Anna's hand. "But that's not why I'm here Anna. I want to see this house of yours. I want a guided tour."

Grinning, Anna interlocked fingers with Elsa. "That I'll gladly be able to do for you, my queen. But first, let's get you something to eat."

"Oh yes, of course," Elsa spoke, remembering her rumbling stomach. "How could I forget."

xXx

"And this, my love, is our final stop!" Anna chimed, as they walked into one of the bedrooms on the upper floor of the house. The room was wallpapered pink, and was decorated with various heart-shaped shapes on the walls as well. There was a desk and a small bed with a light purple duvet on it.

In the corner of the room, Elsa noticed a TV with an old games console plugged into it, as well as a computer and various history textbooks on it. There was no doubt in her mind that this was indeed Anna's bedroom.

"I take it this is your room?" Elsa stated.

"Yup!" Anna confirmed. "This is Casa de la Anna." She then leapt onto the bed, spreading her legs as she sighed back on a familiar mattress. "God, you have no idea how many hours I would spend in this room, just chilling, playing on my old Playstation 2, browsing what was considered the internet back then."

"Sounds like you had quite an easy childhood," Elsa expressed. "Unlike mine..." She sighed. "I wish I could have grown up in your time, Anna. Hell, I wish I could have grown up in this house. Your parents and siblings... they were so kind to me."

Anna let Elsa sit on the bed by her side, and snuggled up to her. She then wrapped her arms around Elsa, stroking the blonde's hair. Under all that royal exterior, Elsa was just like Anna. A simple young woman. But, Anna could sense this setting brought a little sadness to her.

She remembered when Elsa showed her around her home and told her how she had lost her family over the years. Perhaps being here reminded Elsa of what she had lost... but Anna didn't want Elsa to feel pain. She didn't deserve that.

She may not have been sure how to do it, but she would make Elsa part of her family, to give her a sense of belonging once again.

Sniffling, Elsa wiped a tear from her eye. "I'm sorry," she apologised. "It's just..."

Before Elsa could finish her sentence, Anna's warm lips pressed against her own, kissing her softly. As Anna pulled Elsa closer, the blonde sighed and a few more tears dripped down her cheeks.

"Hey, hey," Anna whispered. "It's okay."

Sighing, Elsa nodded. "I know. I just... I miss my parents so much." She then cuddled Anna closer. "But you... you help me deal with that pain. I never want you to leave me."

"Fat chance of that happening," Anna joked. "You're stuck with me Queenie. Like it or not."

"I wouldn't have it any other way," Elsa replied, kissing Anna's cheek.

Just then, a light bulb flicked on in Anna's head, a rather beautiful idea filling her thoughts. She then slipped out of Elsa's embrace, running to the corner of her room, searching for something. Elsa raised an eyebrow in confusion, but Anna returned moments later, with some strange lamp-shaped object.

Knowing her girlfriend was sceptical, Anna assured her with a smile, before placing the object on the bedside table and plugging it into the wall.

Looking at Elsa, she smirked. "You ready?"

"For what?"

"This." Anna flicked the switch on the cord of the device and it turned on. Suddenly, the entire room was filled with a bright star pattern, lights and shapes were projected all over the room. It was if the heavens themselves had opened up before Anna and Elsa's heads.

Anna lay back on the bed, looking at Elsa staring in awe at the stars on the ceiling. This was just as beautiful as any aurora, and the best part, they didn't need to be on any frozen mountaintop to see it.

Staring with wide eyes at the ceiling, Elsa looked over at Anna. "What is this?"

"My old projector lamp," Anna told her. "I used to put it on when I couldn't sleep when I was little. I got so mesmerised in looking at the stars that I eventually just fell asleep." She smiled. "And I thought it would be romantic for us to cuddle under it."

"You dork," Elsa cooed, rolling her eyes and cuddling up to Anna once more. "Thank you." She then pulled Anna closer and they kissed once again, under the light of a thousand shining stars.

Blushing through the kisses, Elsa sighed, as Anna removed her trousers and underwear, finding the beautiful hairy mound of platinum blonde, wet and awaiting its touches. Not wanting to be outdone, Elsa too removed Anna's lower clothing, revealing her hairless sweet pussy beneath.

In an unexpected move, Elsa started to kiss Anna's folds with such sensual pleasure. Her tongue danced upon Anna's clit before travelling inside and making the redhead moan sweetly. Flushing red, Anna panted, softly moaning Elsa's name. "Oh... Elsa..."

Continuing on, Elsa slid two of her fingers into Anna as well, deepening the pleasure being felt by the strawberry blonde. She wanted to reward Anna for this wonderful time, to make her feel just as comfortable as she was on this luxurious bed.

Gasping for air, Anna felt the tongue and fingers pleasure her insides. Elsa's tongue was short, wide and cool to the touch, almost like ice, while her fingers were like icy daggers, thrusting in and out with forces of pleasure that rocked her core.

Elsa knew Anna still had a while to go, so she continued her pleasure, licking her tongue through Anna's sweet labia and clit, having another finger rub her clit.

The moaning from Anna had become like music to Elsa's ears by this point, a melody she could lose herself in for days on end. But right now, she wanted this little girl to feel the happiest woman in the world and she wanted her to cum, very badly.

With her fingers still inside Anna, Elsa reached up and kissed Anna's lips. "I love you..."

"I know..." Anna whimpered, biting her lip. "Please... put your tongue back in... I love it so fucking much... mmmmmmmm!"

With her beloved shivering with pleasure, Elsa slid her tongue back inside of the strawberry blonde, thrusting her instruments of pleasure in and out of Anna. She knew Anna wouldn't be far now. She was going to cum for her and it would be magical.

Feeling her wave rising, Anna felt herself push her hips forward, with what little strength she had from being pleasured so much. She bit her lip, ready to scream Elsa's name out loud. With all her energy and force she came into Elsa's mouth.

"Mwaaaaaaaaaaa! ~ " Anna moaned in melody as her juices flowed and her labia pulsed with her heartbeat. She panted and breathed in before relaxing, letting Elsa lap up her juices.

Elsa purred, kissing Anna once again. "I love you so much."

Kissing back, Anna felt she could taste the sweet nectar still on her lover's lips. Licking it all off, she purred, biting her lip again and rising up with Elsa. She then moved down and kissed Elsa's swan-like neck, biting her skin gently.

"Anna!" Elsa gasped in surprise. Clearly, her lover wasn't getting tired anytime soon... and she was very thankful about that.

Taking Elsa's fingers, Anna pulled them between her legs and let the blonde finger her wet pussy, as she cupped her lips for a deep passionate kiss. As they started to make out and Elsa stroked Anna's wet folds, Anna slid her own fingers between Elsa's legs.

"Mmmm...!" A faint moan escaped Elsa's throat, but was soon muffled by Anna's intense, deep lips wrapped around Elsa's as their tongues danced together.

Anna smiled, gently rubbing Elsa's outer lips with her fingertips. More moans escaped from Elsa, as the blonde started to finger Anna back, the two of them eventually riding the other's fingers for pleasure.

As her fingers drew in and out of Elsa, Anna's lips were firmly locked to Elsa's own. They continued making out, their hands and fingers inside the other with speed increasing. Anna pulled out of the kiss, nearing her own orgasm again.

"Oh god," she moaned. "Elsa... I'm gonna."

"M-Me too..." Elsa blushed. She kissed Anna again and forced the strawberry blonde's fingers inside her deeply, wanting Anna's digits to rub her core.

Whimpering, Anna felt Elsa's fingers increase their pace inside of her. She was going to cum again. She knew it and she wanted it. She wanted to share this with Elsa now. Flushing red and biting her lip, Anna came again, her juices seeping out.

Elsa sighed, relaxing as she came as well, not as forceful as her girlfriend had done. Once she was finished, she smiled cutely, and kissed Anna's lips. "You know how to make me feel good, don't you sweetie."

"Just want to make sure... you're smiling," Anna breathed, before she lay back down on the bed, with Elsa kissing her once more.

xXx

A couple of hours later, once both Elsa and Anna had recovered from their orgasms, Anna had gone off to spend time with her siblings while Elsa was free to explore the house. The blonde was still a little tired from her time together with Anna, but she wasn't going to pass out just yet.

Making her way downstairs, Elsa noticed Anna's parents still cooking in the kitchen. They were just making the finishing touches to the food they would be eating for dinner. There was so much there, Elsa thought it would rival one of her royal banquets from back in Arendelle.

She then remembered her thoughts lately about hers and Anna's relationship. For the past few weeks, Elsa had known that their love had been as strong as it had ever been, but now, she was wondering if it was time to take a big next step.

And according to Arendelle tradition, right now was a perfect moment for her to take the first little step towards that big one.

Walking into the kitchen, Elsa cleared her throat, getting the attention of Anna's parents. "Excuse me... Mr and Mrs Penrose?"

Anna's mother and father turned around, smiling at Elsa. "Oh, Elsa! Good to see you!" Anna's father said. "How are you finding our house? I saw Anna giving you a little tour around the backyard earlier."

"It's quite a lovely residence," Elsa admitted. "Truly, there isn't a home quite like it where I come from."

"Where exactly are you from dear?" Anna's mother inquired.

"Oh errr... I'm from Norway," Elsa excused. She couldn't really say Arendelle, since both she and Anna were unsure that Arendelle even existed in her time. "Very far out, very cold as well."

"Well, you certainly look like an ice maiden," Anna's father joked.

Elsa then looked over at the meal that was being prepared, admiring the massive turkey that was the centrepiece of the whole arrangement. "That turkey certainly looks delicious."

"Cooked it myself," Anna's mother stated.

"Ourselves, dear," Her husband corrected.

Despite how good the turkey looked to eat, Elsa held herself back. After all, she didn't want to spoil the festivities by eating early. Instead, she decided to turn to another more important matter.

"Mr and Mrs Penrose?" Elsa asked. "I have a ... slight favour to ask of you."

"We'll do whatever you ask, Elsa," Anna's father told her. "Any girlfriend of our daughter is welcome in our house."

"Well, it's about that actually," Elsa spoke. "You see..." God, was she really going to ask this? Was it even necessary? To hell with it Elsa, just pop the question over dinner! Her thoughts shouted, but Elsa silenced those. She was going to do this the traditional, Arendellian way.

She exhaled slowly, meeting their eyes. "Mr and Mrs Penrose...I'd like your permission to ask your daughter to marry me."

"Oh... Oh my gosh..." Anna's mother was surprised. Her face turned a little pale in surprise and she stepped back into her husband's arms. "D-Dear... did you hear what she said?"

"Every word of it, Harriet," Her husband replied. Anna's father then looked at Elsa, smiling with a happiness Elsa didn't know was possible from someone other than Anna. "Yes... you may Elsa. We would be more than happy for you to marry our daughter."

"Y-you would?" Elsa wondered, surprised herself. "B-but... you've only known me for a few hours."

"Elsa," Anna's father put a hand on her shoulder. "You love my daughter and our Anna deserves to be happy. If you wish to marry her, go right ahead. We have no objections."

"T-thank you," Elsa blushed, before hugging the man. She cried. Anna's father reminded her so much of her own. "I promise, I will take good care of her."

Stroking Elsa's hair, Anna's father smiled at his future daughter in law. "So... are you going to ask her tonight?"

"What? Oh no, no, no, no, it would be too embarrassing for her," Elsa expressed. "But I just wanted to get your permission first... it's sort of a family tradition."

"A tradition which we humbly respect," Anna's father replied. "Speaking of tradition, we better put this food out. Kids, it's time for dinner!" He called out,

Elsa watched as the rest of the family, including Anna, headed towards the large dinner table. Before Anna could take her seat, she saw Elsa, with a bright smile and dried tears on her face.

"What's up with you?" the redhead asked her girlfriend.

"Oh, nothing," Elsa expressed. "Just something that made me smile, that's all." She then took Anna's hand and the two walked to the table together, ready to eat with the rest of the family.

Before they sat down, Anna gave Elsa a playful wink. "I bet I eat more than you."

Elsa giggled. "Game on, Anna."
