Hey guys! Oh gosh another fanfic asdfghk sorry for not updating my other two, I'll update 'Taking out the Trash' soon, but I've pretty much given up on 'The Storm Rages On'.

Anyways, on with the story!


After the defeat of Pitch, North had insisted that the Guardians all head back to the Pole for 'bonding time and cookies!' So that was where the were, seated around the fireplace in possibly the comfiest chairs in the universe.

North was in his giant red arm chair, munching on cookies and sipping hot chocolate. Tooth was seated in a smaller, red armchair as well, politely declining the hot chocolate and cookies, for they were so obviously horrible for your teeth! Sandy was in a comically large armchair that practically swallowed him up, a mug of eggnog in his hands. Bunny was happily resting in an armchair almost as big as North's, and of course painting some eggs.

And then there was Jack.

He was seated sideways in a large, overstuffed armchair, legs dangling over the side, head tilted back, mouth open, a few soft snores escaping. As soon as they had arrived back at the Pole, they had all settled in and just talked. About almost everything, really. Jack had made himself comfortable, and simply listened. He would occasionally submit his own story, or throw in a sarcastic comment, but soon his eyelids had started to droop, and it wasn't long until he was out.

Tooth and her fairies had cooed about how adorable he was and oh weren't they just so lucky to have him? Bunny had snorted and said something about the 'showpony' being all tuckered out. Sandy sent a stream of dreamsand over and Jack smiled in his sleep. North just smiled fondly and stood up. "Bah, we all tired yes? Why don't you all stay here? I have yetis prepare guest rooms!"

They all nodded in agreement. North headed over to where Jack was resting and carefully picked him up. The immortal boy mumbled something, but didn't wake. North nodded to the rest of the Guardians.

"Right then. Come along, I will show you rooms."

They had went to Jack's room first, and set him down on the bed. He mumbled something and his eyes cracked open. "Wha's happenin'?" He slurred.

Bunny snorted. Tooth smiled. Sandy grinned. North chuckled. "Nothing, my boy, you are tired, go back to sleep, yes?"

Jack nodded slowly. "Mk.." He muttered, and closed his eyes. Sandy sent another stream of dreamsand over and they all shuffled out of the room.

Nobody noticed the red eyes watching from the shadows.


Dun Dun Duun.

Sorry for shortness. I'm actually probably gonna update this later today, 'cause I actually know where I'm going with it.

R&R please!
