Jack's POV


Jack leaned forward on his tree branch, watching the girl with ebony hair skate. It was incredible. Jack had never seen anybody skate at that level before. Suddenly the girl, about his physical age, skated to the side of the lake. She bent down fluidly over the snow grabbing something. Jack figured the raven-haired girl didn't see him, most kids didn't believe in the guardians at the age of 14. She skated back to the center of the lake. Just in case she could see him, he leaned against the trunk of the tree, acting like he was sleeping. It was a real shock when a snowball hit him in the face and he tumbled out of the tree.
"Ow..." Jack groaned.
"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!" the girl gasped out an apology.
"It's fine," Jack said, looking into her eyes for the first time. They were a startling dark blue, which added a nice contrast to the black, chin length hair, and pale skin. She was beautiful. They stared into each others' eyes for a moment until the girl broke the silence, "Are you okay? I wasn't trying to make you fall out of the tree."
It's fi-" but Jack was caught off-guard with a question, "You can see me?''
"Yeah," the girl answered, "Should I not be able to?"
"Ummm... No you should see me," Jack answered.
"Ok," the girl held out her hand, "I'm Mavis."
"Jack," Jack responded as he shook her hand.
"Sooo... Jack, do you go to Taylor Middle School?" Mavis asked. "No, I don't," he said.
"Oh, well that's too bad. It would've been nice to know someone," she said.
"Did you just move here?"
"Yeah."
Suddenly, a big light shown down. Jack sighed. He had to got meet with the other guardians who were at the Pole. He was genuinely sad to go. He took a risk.
"Can I meet you here tomorrow? Same time?"
"Yeah! I'd love that!" Mavis responded.
"It's a date," Jack said back, resulting in, what Jack thought to be a lovely blush colored her cheeks.
