Daughter of Winter


It was a winter day in Burgess, Sophie was in New York with her husband, and Jamie was still in Burgess. He lives in the same house that he grew up in, but this time he wasn't the only one living in the house.

"Daddy!" A girl, eight years old, with silvery-white hair and brown eyes shouted as she ran down the stairs. "Yes?" Jamie, twenty-six years old, asked as she ran into him. "Let's go outside!" She shouted excitedly. "Okay." He said, somewhat happy too.

As they walked out the door, the girl almost slipped on a patch of ice. "Icica, are you okay?" Jamie asked very worried. "I'm okay Daddy!" Icica said as she ran to the forest. "Icica!" He shouted as he ran after her.

He got to the lake and saw her staring at it in amazement. "Want to pull a prank on Jack?" He asked when he got to her. "Yea-Yeah!" Icica said as she turned around. They went behind a tree and waited for him.

A flash of blue and brown whisked by as a boy, 336 years old, with silvery hair, and ice blue eyes landed on the lake. As he looks around, Jamie picks up a small stone and threw it. It lands next to Jack's feet, and the two hide to not be seen.

Jamie looks to see if Jack is still looking in their direction, but instead he's not there. As they wonder where he is, snow falls on top of them. They pull their heads out of snow to hear a familiar laugh.

"Haha," Jamie sarcastically says. "Very funny Jack." Jack is sitting on a tree branch and laughing at their snow predicament. "C'mon," He says after he lands next to them. "Can't I have a little fun?"

"Jack's very naughty," Icica said while pointing at him. "He's gonna be on the Naughty List." Both Jamie and Jack shook their heads. "Ici, he holds the record." Jamie said while gesturing to Jack.

"Ici?" Jack said confused, hearing the nickname for the first time. "Short for Ice-ih-ka." Icica said sounding each part. "Is she named for winter?" Jack asked Jamie still confused. "Yeah," Jamie said a little embarrassed. "Her mother died while giving birth to her."

Icica was silent after the mention of her mother. "Oh," Jack said after he noticed her sudden change in mood. "Sorry about that." Jamie just waved it off. "It's not your fault," He said upset. "No one could do a thing." He whispered quietly.

"Do you want to meet North?" Jack asked Icica. She just tilted her head in confusion. "He means Santa." Jamie said helping explain it better. She vigorously nodded her head. Jack pulled out a snow globe, whispered into it, and threw it. It shattered and showed a portal to the North Pole. She ran in with Jack and Jamie following.


I thought of making a little daughter for Jamie, and came up with this! For those who guess who Icica's mother first will be announced in the next chapter!
