<<<ELSA'S POV>>>

Jack's actually here! What's going on?! He was being so cold towards me! I don't understand...maybe it's what I said? I don't know! He was being such a jerk! Maybe...maybe I'm just not the one to have relationships. Only, when I look at people and see their relationships...I do feel envious, I want to be happy like they are! I want a successful and long lasting relationship; I want a family of my own one day, maybe.

"Elsa, your last name is Moon?!" Naveen exclaimed.

We're back in the kitchen. Everyone was staring, was I missing something here?

"What's the big deal?" I asked in shock.

"What's the big deal?! Elsa, he's an amazing scientist and disease analyst!" One of my workers, Emmalyn gasped.

"What?" I asked dumbfounded.

Emmalyn pulled her phone out and showed me a new article. The title was: Manny Moon The Savior!  I read through the article; he says he looked into the disease and he found the cure for leukemia! Wow! He found this years ago! "A little girl of a good friend of mine, she's two years old and...she was going to die. I had to do something. That little girl, she has a long life ahead of her and she'll make the world a better place."

A good friend of his? A two year old girl had leukemia? Gosh, that's just so so sad! I can't believe that! I hope that little girl has become bigger and stronger and survived!

"Wow...I didn't know!" I gasped in shock.

"He also found a cure for coronary heart disease and found life on another planet! Manny is also an entrepreneur!" Emmalyn lists.

Wow, I never knew that! He found a cure to one type of cancer, cure to a serious medical condition, found life on another planet and he's an entrepreneur? That's a lot of work!

"Huh, can't believe I didn't know what my Dad did." I said a little guiltily.

I'll have to catch up with him! I'm giving him a chance, it wasn't exactly his fault that he didn't know. Now that I think of it, I was scared to let him in...I thought he'd be just like Adgar and now I realise that I put way too much thought into it. I have to give people a chance.

"Alright, let's just stop and get the main course finished. Now people who were on starters, move over to dessert!" I ordered.

We finished up the main course and the crew were washing up the dishes. We always leave the dishes until last, that seems a little stupid as it would be mountains to clean only we all work together to make it work and not seem that way.

"Right! Me, Emmalyn and Ralph will be serving our main course. Let's head up," I clapped.

Once again, we were on our way back to the conference room to serve another course and collect the dirty dishes. The young girl comes out again and nods; we entered.

"Elsa, I have to say that was amazing! What is it we have next?" Mr. Onassis asks.

"Now, we have maple glazed turkey with asparagus parmesan." I smiled.

Me, Emmalyn and Ralph collected all the dirty dishes and set out everyone's food. I couldn't help but notice that Jack wouldn't take his eyes off me. I was playing his game, giving him the cold shoulder. We left and headed straight back for the kitchen; there wasn't much left in terms of washing and drying up, now we add the twenty four bowls and cutlery. We did all the washing up in no time and I went to check the dessert. I decided we should just go with a classical, which was strawberry torte. It's basically swiss roll filled with ice-cream and fresh cream with diced strawberries and topped with fresh cream again and sliced strawberries inside.

"Elsa, dessert is done!" Naveen announced.

We cut it into twenty four sections, there was two slices per person. Let's hope we finish on a good dessert! Me, Ralph and Tiana were taking the carts back. Once again, the girl stood outside with a huge smile.

"Right on time!" She smiled.

We entered again and I noticed how Jack looked at the strawberry torte disapprovingly. Oh, he doesn't like strawberries! Damn it! Okay, just act natural.

"What's the dessert here?" Mr. Onassis asked with a twinkle in his eye.

"This is strawberry torte!" I smiled.

"I can't wait, my favourite part." Mr. Onassis chuckled.

Everyone else in the room chuckled too. I left still noticing that the same bewitching eyes were staring at my back the entire time, I was beginning to feel uncomfortable. I went straight into the kitchen and helped the crew.

"Guys, well done! I'll put the equipment away, you can go jump in the van." I smiled.

Everyone went to the van and I was putting the last bits and bobs of equipment. The kitchen door opened, it was Mr. Onassis.

"Ah, Mr. Onassis! I do hope that you and your guests enjoyed the food," I smiled.

"Enjoyed it? Your food was amazing! Thank you for your time and here is your cheque." Mr. Onassis smiled before walking out.

I looked at the cheque and my eyeballs nearly fell out my head. What?! Three million dollars?! This is way too much! I went out to find Mr. Onassis and I bumped into someone landing on my butt.

"Stupid. Stupid. Sorry, I was watching where I was going!" I said apologetically, dusting myself off not looking at the person.

"Three million dollars? You do really get some good business as a caterer, huh?"

I gulped. I didn't want to look up, it was Jack...I think that I should just leave. I don't deserve relationships, I just mess up anyways.

"Jack, would you kind give me back the cheque and I'll be on my merry way." I said, looking at the ground.

"If you look me in the eye, I will." He replied.

Look him in the eye? I sighed, I slowly lifted my head and looked into his mesmerizing pools. I always get lost in them...I quickly snatched the cheque and ran off. I got out of his grasp, thankfully. I was by a fountain, this is in the middle of the big building and no one was here to my advantage, I stared into the water and I created ripples. How? I was crying.

"I always mess things up!" I sobbed.

I walked off hugging myself as I made my way back to the van. As I was about to exit, I was pinned to the wall. Jack?!

"Jack, what are you doing?" I choked.

He stared at me looking intensely at my cheeks. He was looking at my tears, worst thing was I couldn't just wipe them away. I couldn't do anything with my arms pinned to the wall.

"You don't mess things up, Elsa. The world is tough on everyone, occasionally too tough on some more than others." Jack sighed.

He heard me say that?! I was so sure no one was there with me! No one could have heard me, but where on Earth was Jack hiding?!

"Why did you even follow me and decided to catch me?" I sighed.

He looked deeply into my eyes, I was drowning in them more and more by the second.

"I like you, I mean really really like you...and the things you said...they hurt me." Jack said upset.

I didn't mean to hurt him...I wanted things with me and my best friend back to normal. I just wanted to find common ground at least, but I don't think Pitch will be coming round anytime soon. Like I witnessed, he's made his position in my life very clear.

"I know, I did...and I'm so sorry!" I sobbed.

He unpinned me and hugged me. I was hugging him back, his smell comforted me. It must be so cliché and odd for a person to feel so much comfort in another person's smell, right?

"Hey, it's okay. But I do have a request of you," Jack said.

I pulled away and looked up at him questioningly. Suddenly, sweat began to beam on his forehead. Is he sick?

"Jack, do you have a fever or something?" I asked concerned.

"No, no, no. I-I'm just a little nervous to ask you...out on a date." Jack replied.

I stared at him in shock. Hold the glitter! He wants to take me out on a date again?! Okay, I think I'm dreaming again.

"Okay, I'm dreaming again. I'm going to wake up again any second. Come on, Mama! Wake me up, I'm only torturing myself because I can't get him out my mind." I called out.

"You dream about me?" He smirked.

That's when I snapped back, this was reality. I began to blush bright red, Jack didn't wipe the childish smirk off of his face.

"N-No." I stammered.

"Still could I take you on that date later?" Jack asked.

I don't know what got into me, but I kissed him on the lips. I missed the feeling of those soft lips against mine, it was like a power how our lips moved in perfect sync.

"Yes, you can," I smiled.

Now I'm in a total panic. I'm back at the hotel room trying to figure out what to wear! He said go for a casual look, but what could I wear that is calm casual?! What do I do? What do I do? What do I do?

"Elsa sweetheart! I'm back from my day out!" Mama called.

"I-I'm in my room," I replied.

This is just too nerve-racking! Maybe because of the weather, a nice sleeveless blouse? I have twelve different blouses though! Ugh, why do I have to be inexperienced with dates?

"Elsa, are you okay?" Mama asked in concern.

"I-I'm just a little nervous." I mumbled as I bit at my fingernails.

"Don't bite your fingernails, sweetie. Now what's wrong?" Mama asked.

"I-I...have a...date." I muttered.

"Sorry, could you repeat that darling?" Mama asked.

I took a deep breath. "I have a date."

Mama looked at me in shock and then started running around like a happy little child. It did take my mind off the nervousness and the horrible pit feeling in my stomach.

"Can't wait to be a grandma!" She cheered.

I coughed in shock. A grandma? I don't think so, at least not yet anyway! I'd rather get married before having a child. I'm more of an older generation sort of person, you could say?

"N-Now! Now! One thing at a time, I have a date...could you maybe help me please?" I asked.

Mama clapped and practically shoved me out the way as she went through my wardrobe. She pulled out one of my sleeveless blouses; it was one of my new ones, it's black and white with black and white polka dots and a black lace pattern at the top. She then immediately went looking through skirts and she didn't approve of any and pulled out some red coloured jeans.

"Okay, if I was calmer I would have gotten them out." I smiled laughing.

Then Mama pulled out some plain black flats. That's actually quite perfect, this outfit is great! Mama smiled, she had her arms folded and a smirk tugged at her lips. Uh oh...what's she up to?

"So who's my future son in law?!" Mama squealed.

I blushed in embarrassment. She'd probably be squealing much more if I told her about my dream last night!

"Well...uh...y-you remember Jack?" I stammered, backing up.

"Quite a catch, my baby girl is growing up! Oh, I should invite him to dinner when we get back!" Mama cheered.

"No! I'm drawing the line there. No!" I refused.

"Aww, you're not any fun." Mama pouted.

That's when Mama sat me down and undid my French braid. My hair fell into loose waves, I smiled. I put in my limited edition rose gold Michael Kors earrings.

"Going all out with jewellery? Michael Kors is always the way to go," Mama laughed.

I giggled and hugged her. She's so goofy! I'll always love her though. She's the best Mama in the whole world!

"Come, your date will be here soon!" Mama smiled.
