Jack's P.O.V
I quietly stared at the sandwich in my hand. Bunny had invited me to lunch, which was surprising. I feel like he's been avoiding me for these past few months. We never hang out anymore and it feels like our relationship is fading away. Maybe he finally got tired of me? But why would he still keep this act of him loving me? I looked up from the sandwich when something touched my knee. It was Bunny, his own sandwich already gone. "Ey, Jackie. You doin' okay?" He asked. "Are you avoiding me?" I couldn't help but blurt out.
"What?" Bunny asked, almost shocked. "Well, it just seems like you've been getting tired of me." I shrugged. I wasn't expecting him to lunge at me. I dropped my sandwich as he gripped my shoulders in his paws. His ears were laid back and his evergreen eyes were wide. "I would neva' avoid ya!" He almost shouted. "I love ya, Jackie! I didn't mean to make ya feel like that! I promise! I've been so busy lately, I'm so sorry, Jackie!" His grip on my shoulders tightened as he continued to ramble apologies. I didn't think he would act like this..."Bunny.." I interrupted. He didn't seem to hear me, "Bunny!" I said a bit louder. Still nothing.
"Bunny!" I shouted. He stopped and looked at me, ears flat against his skull. "Are you okay?" I asked. He looked at me like I asked him the most ridiculous question ever. "Am I okay? Are you?! I swear, I haven't been avoidin' ya!" He started to talk faster, his accent getting thicker. "Well, it sure feels like it!" I couldn't help but yell. His ears twitched and he shrunk back. "What?" He asked, eyes wide. "Bunny, you've ignored me for the past 2 weeks." I explained to him, "Every time I've asked to hang out, you've either said you were busy or some other stupid excuse." I said.
"Jackie, I promise. I really have been busy." He said, "I've been planning something real special for your birthday." He smirked, suddenly. "Happy Birthday, by the way." He finished. I rolled my eyes, but couldn't help but smile, "Thank you, you big lug." I said. Bunny leaned back, moving away from me a bit. His ears returned to the normal upright position. "So..." I interrupted the silence, "What have you been planing?" I couldn't help but ask. He shook his head and made a tsk sound, "No. You ain't gonna make me tell ya. It's gonna be a big surprise." He said.
I groaned, I hated waiting, and he knew that. He just smirked and kissed my cheek. We finished our little picnic together. I told Bunny that I wanted to play with the kids after school. Today was their last day before Christmas Break. He nodded. He told me to have fun, and that he'd be expecting me at the Pole later. There was nothing else much to say. Bunny leaned over and kissed me. Then I called to Wind and we left the Warren.
Third Person P.O.V
After Jack was out of sight, Bunny clapped his paws together, and took a deep breath. "Alrigh' let's get started." He said. He thumped his foot against the soft grass and jumped into the hole that appeared on the ground.
Jack flew through the sky, Wind tossing and turning him, causing him to flip in the air. He gave a laugh as he neared his favorite town of Burgess. He could still remember the dark memories of him waking up in the lake just on the outskirts of the town and having no memory of anything at all. He was so scared, and didn't know what to do.
300 years later, and he is suddenly being called upon by the Guardians, saying Manny, whom hadn't spoken a word to him since he woke, had decided that he was to become a Guardian and help the other four defeat Pitch. Everything was going well, till he decided to get distracted again. Pitch had caught his attention and held it till he was set free. Nightmares had destroyed practically all the eggs that were meant to be delivered, and Bunny lost his believers and shrunk down to the size of a real rabbit. Then Sandy was killed.
Then Jack was thrown in a crevice in Antarctica with a broken staff and a flightless, shivering fairy. Baby Tooth showed him how to view his memories that he had long forgotten. With new found courage, he fixed his staff, let the fairies free of their cages in Pitch's lair, and found Jamie in Burgess. Little Jamie, the Last Light. He had gotten there just in time, before Jamie lost belief as well.
He had drawn a rabbit on his window in frost. He never expected Jamie to see him. He was so excited he forgot his was in a bedroom, and did a flip, landing on Jamie's desk. Then the other Guardians came and were surprised to see him, but also surprised that Jamie could see him. Jamie got his friends to believe and they had won the battle. That was it.
He had visited the Guardians practically everyday after that, and they welcomed him like family. As the years passed, everything started to change. Jamie grew to a young man, graduating from college and found a girlfriend, turned fiance, turned wife. Claire was a beautiful young woman, with light curly brown hair with tan highlights that fell to her waist, and she had Heterochromia; two different colored eyes, grey in the left and lavender in the right.
They found out not too long after that, that she believed in the other Guardians, and also that she is a great great great times whatever niece to Tooth. Jamie was certainly surprised. While the two grew, they offend visited the North Pole and the Guardians often visited them at their new house together. When Claire found out she was pregnant, everyone was happy. They had twins, Emma and Eric.
While they were only 6 years old at the moment, Emma and Eric had closely identical features to Jamie, having the same button nose and big eyes like he had when he was younger. Emma had wavy light brown hair and chestnut eyes, and Eric had brown hair like Jamie and grey eyes that matched Claire's left one.
Jack smiled at the memory of seeing the two for the first time, one in Jamie's arms and the other in Claire's. He looked at them with wonder, and gasped in joy when Emma put her hands in the air and gave a childish giggle as she touched his cold cheek. He was so excited they could see him, even if they were babies.
His smile grew larger as the town came into view. If he was right, the elementary school was just about over, and he could start a snowball fight for the kids on their last day before break. He landed on a tree that was across from the school and waited for the bell to ring to release the students.
