Aiden is everything Elsa deserved, Anna had once firmly claimed in her head.

Anna looks at Aiden like he was the older brother she never had. Anna is perfectly contented with her older sister, because why wouldn't she be? Yet there are certain times the redhead couldn't help but find herself imagining the experience of what's it like to have a male sibling. She and Elsa are obviously different and similar in various ways and reasons, but having a brother... that's an entirely new story.

Elsa's happiness, her well being, other subjects regarding their beloved Elsa—that was the massive thing she and Aiden had in common. He is her partner in being the ultimate worrywart.

Everytime the Snow Queen would insist to take risks reserved for the daredevils, it's always predictable for Anna and Aiden to simultaneously stand up in sync and prepare themselves to try and change Elsa's final decision, even though they have it drilled in their minds that they have no impossible capability to succeed in doing so.

Periodically, curiosity gets the better of the princess of Arendelle. And not really much to her surprise, Elsa knew her husband like the back of her hand.

Does he snore? No, Aiden must be the epitome of proper etiquette—well, almost, except that he wriggles his mouth occasionally when he's knocked out cold. What's his favorite food? Apparently the King of Arendelle is very fond of dishes consisting vegetables alone, but to maintain his buff shape he eats meat in rare occasions, wherein Elsa keeps a close eye on him that he's getting the right supplement of protein. Is he a good kisser? Elsa stayed silent since then and looked like a replica of a tomato, and Anna have smirked and already knew the answer.

According to the Queen of Arendelle, Aiden not only has a face and figure finely chiseled by the angels, but the guy is truly gifted and talented, too. Besides swordsmanship and other body breaking sports, Aiden is a certified songwriter and lately he's been developing a knack for literature due to the influence of Noah's afternoon visits.

He's also skilled in politics and trade, so that's why everytime there's a ball with numerous ambassadors, officials and envoys attending, Aiden is swift to secure promising negotiations, while Elsa handles the talking sometimes since the platinum blonde is impressively fluent in all of European languages.

.... Though while everyone deems him to be perfect, in many ways more than one, Anna is also well aware that her brother in law has low self esteem when the moment of conflict comes. Everyone is more than satisfied, Aiden isn't. Nothing's ever enough, he needs to contribute more, that's what he felt and what he did.

Fortunately Elsa's always there to reassure that his efforts are greatly appreciated because she wouldn't want him getting things involving his emotions running amuck.

And the what-ifs appeared. What if Elsa wasn't there?

No, Anna. Don't dare to think about it.

Not so far away from the dance floor, Elsa is obviously enjoying herself, looking very much happy as she clinked glasses with her husband who is smooth to take her hand and pull her into an overly passionate kiss the ice queen will soon melt into in delight. These two never failed to remind the townsfolk of newlyweds.

Anna snickered; oh the amusing General. Magoo have marched in between the parting couple, a wine glass and a teaspoon in hand, and the startling noise  completely broke the pair apart. Aiden automatically glared daggers at the older man right after.

Iduna and Agnarr couldn't resist any longer when Anna saw her parents politely return the wriggling twins to the host and hostess of the ball to dash to the dance floor and slow dance.
