I slid my arms into my coat sleeves and prepared to fight Jack Frost for possession of my ears as I pushed open the door of the school. The snow glinted in the light of the lamps and the cold wind played with my hair. I could have enjoyed it except that I couldn't feel my fingers, I was exhausted , and all I wanted was a hot cup of tea. So I rushed past the beauty of the world just trying to get to the dorms before I froze. My cheeks tingled in the blast of warm air as I opened the door. I started pulling off my gloves as I climbed the three flights of stairs and unlocked my door.
Somehow I wasn't surprised to see the boy in the blue hoodie on my bed, I mean didn't I mention that I fight Jack Frost on a daily bases? "It's always puzzled me," I said dumping my coat on its chair, "why you never wear shoes. Did you kick them off in the pond? Because everyone knows they make it harder to swim." "Well, no, actually they came off when I…come to think of it, I don't know why I don't wear shoes, but that's not why I'm here." "let me guess, something's gone wrong and I'm somehow involved." "well…yeah." I grab my tea cup and head for the door.
When I come back he's making a miniature snowman on my bed. I shiver. "Not in the house, Jack!" "Oh, sorry." He stops and the snow starts melting. I set down my steaming cup and get a plate to put the sad little snowman on. Jack jumps off my bed a starts pacing, "aren't you going to ask me why I'm here?" "aren't you going to tell me?" He turns around with that half smirk on his face, I calmly sip my tea. "he's back." Jack says and goes back to pacing. "Bigger and Better than ever?" "unfortunately." Jack stands over the melting snowman on my bed with a look that said: go ahead, MELT! See what I care. Now I was the one pacing. "What's his new superpower?" "Huh?" "ok, no new superpower." "No, I mean, what do you mean by 'new superpower'?" I look at him skeptically, nope, he's seriously clueless. "Mind-control, time-travel, apparition, that sort of thing." "oh! No, none of that." "good, I know what I'm working with." "I just need to see the team…"
"I thought you'd never ask." He grabs my arm and pulls me to the window that I'm sure I closed that morning but it's open now and we fly off into the night. Leaving the snowman to his fate, and my tea to get cold.
Don't worry, it get much more intense. Bwahahaha!
