Chapter 1
Beep! Beep! Beep!
This was the third time my alarm clock went off until I decided to get up. I figured that since it was Friday, I should at least try to get to school on time. It was 6:15 when I rolled out of bed and changed into a pair of dark-wash skinny jeans, a gray long sleeve shirt, and a pair of wool socks.
I brushed my wavy light brown hair pinned back apiece so that it would stay out of my eyes. It takes a really long time to straighten or curl my hair because it was just a little below my shoulder. I walked into my bathroom and quickly washed my face and brushed my teeth with spearmint toothpaste.
I headed downstairs into the kitchen and started to eat some cereal when I realized that my little brother wasn't up yet. It seemed weird because he always woke up at 6 o'clock even though it took him only 15 minuets to get ready for school. So, when I finished my cereal I went to check up on him, just to be sure he wasn't dead. I peered into his dark room and said, "Mike its time to get up!"
"Mh sa nemh gway"
"What was that? I couldn't hear you through your pillow." Brothers…what are you going to do.
"It's a snow day! Let me sleep!"
I shut the door and walked around the corner, to look out the window. There was probably 3 feet of snow! How did I miss all of that snow while passing a GIANT WINDOW!? At first I was pissed, because I was completely awake and couldn't fall back asleep if I tried. Plus everyone else was still sleeping.
Then I remembered it was a snow day and. I loved playing in the snow as a kid and that hasn't changed! I love almost everything about winter because the world changes and becomes new. I had a few hours to myself before the town woke up, so I decided to head outside. I pulled on my black coat and boots and tied on my lime green scarf then headed out into the winter wonderland.
I was the first person to break the snow with my footprints and the sun was just starting to rise. It walked into the woods to find my favorite meadow that was close enough to walk to but far enough away no one even knew it existed.
*Jack*
Jamie will be so surprised when he wakes up to all of this snow. I dumped snow on the northeastern part of the U.S. and was making my way into mid-Michigan to see my work. I loved the pure beauty of a clean layer of snow.
It looked like the animals hadn't touched the snow and it was just beautiful, but then I saw some prints and flew lower to inspect them. They definitely weren't animal feet; they looked like they were from the bottom of someone's shoes. I was curious so I followed them because they looked like they were leading into the forest, not out.
While I flew up higher, just above the trees, I wondered who would even be up this early. I got my answer; there was a girl who seemed to be about 16 years old and looked absolutely beautiful. I smirked because she was on her tiptoes trying to lick one of the icicles hanging from a branch. I flew to one of the nearby trees to get a closer look and without thinking I said, "Your really pretty."
She whipped around to face her intruder but fell backwards into the snow.
"Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry I startled you. I didn't think you could hear me," Jack said and rushed over to help her up.
She chuckled lightly and said, "That's ok, but I think I would be deaf if I didn't hear you. You talked pretty loudly."
"Well I didn't think you could see me either."
"Why wouldn't I, you were standing right there?"
"Well most people your age don't believe in me."
"Believe in you?"
"Well yah, people can only see me if they believe in me. I'm Jack Frost."
"Oh, kinda like the guy who controls winter and ice"
"Yah exactly. That's me," Jack explained.
"What!?"
"Yup, I make it snow and gave you a snow day today."
She thought this over and said, "Prove it."
At that moment Jack hovered a few feet off the ground and swirled his staff to create a light snowfall. Then he quickly stopped it and landed on the ground in front of the girl when he saw a smile creep across her face. She stared at him, awestruck, and then excitedly whispered, "Y- your Jack Frost!"
"Yes! And you are…?"
"Oh I'm Cassie Glace, but you can just call me Cassie. Glace is just my last name," she babbled, still getting over the fact that she just met Jack Frost. Then Cassie's mind filled with questions to ask him. "Oh my gosh are you a spirit or like a ghost? Is there anyone else like you? Does Santa Claus exist? Can you fly or just hover? How fast can you fly?
Before she could ask anything else he said, "Whoa Cassie slow down! I'm not going to leave so soon! Maybe we could walk back to your house and I'll answer your questions." At that point she asked questions one at a time as they walked to her house and they soon got there. "This is it, but I have so much more to ask you," she paused, "Will you come inside?" she said.
"Well sure, but I don't want to disturb your family."
"Its ok, they're still asleep." When they walked inside they went into the living room and talked for hours. Jack explained his practically whole life, as a guardian and when he was alive. Then when Cassie heard the faint noises of her brother waking up she frowned, because they were really enjoying each other's company. Jack noticed that she was disappointed when he got up to leave so he said, "Leave your bedroom window unlocked, I'll come back tonight."
"Really?" She said excitedly.
"Yes really, I like talking with you."
They exchanged smiles and goodbyes as Jack jumped out a nearby window just before Cassie's brother Mike came down the stairs. "What are you doing with that window open Cass? It's freezing!" Mike said. She quickly shut the window and turned to his brother and mumbled, more to herself than her brother, "Really, I thought it felt warm."
Yay I finished! This is a lot of work; I hope you enjoyed it! Let me know what you think. I will try to update fast, but that could be difficult. I'm at graduation parties this weekend BTW that last sentence she wasn't being sarcastic (hint! hint!). Also Cassie's last name is pronounced like Grace but with an l instead of an r.
