It was sometime around day break when Jamie was pulled from his dreams into the first day of winter. With cold air surrounding him he reached out from under the covers in an attempt to find his digital clock.

"Ugh…it's freezing in here." He grumbled from under the mess of blankets.
Closing his eyes Jamie briefly attempted to go back to sleep before they once again shot open at the realization that it was indeed the first day of winter. "Jack Frost!"
Leaping from his bead Jamie was quick to race over to the window and throw open the blinds in search on one illusive Jack Frost.

It had been nearly two years since the near disaster with Pitch Black and his Night Mares, and Jamie was now eleven years old. Every year after his first encounter with Jack Frost he waited anxiously for winter to return after the long months of Spring, Summer, and Fall.

Now finally the wait was over, yet he could see no sign of Jack Frost anywhere in sight. "Aww, come on. I've waited all year for this…" he groaned in disappointment.

"All year for what?" Perched on Jamie's bedpost Jack Frost watched as Jamie spun around in complete joy.

"You're here!"

"Well winter couldn't exactly get here without me." Jumping to the floor Jack smiled before messing up his young friends hair. "Good to see you kiddo."

Shaking his head Jamie watched Jack walk to the window as if about to leave. "Wait, you're leaving?"

Tossing his staff from one hand to the other Jack unclasped the window and pushed it open. "Well if you're going to have a snow day I've got to get started." He teased, and out the window he went. "And Jamie, if you're going to come outside today I'd wear something other than your PJ's."
Giving a wink as he turned in the direction of the wind he was off.

Smiling as he closed the window Jamie walked to the closet and made quick work of dressing himself in appropriate attire. Unlike the previous year he was determined not to get overly excited and run out into the snow in his pajamas.

After all, it's no fun catching a cold and missing out of fun times.

"Jamie?" Opening the door to her son's room Jamie's mother walked in clothed in a robe and fuzzy slippers. "What…what are you doing up this early?" her voice faded off as she had yet to have her first cup of coffee.

Emptying his backpack and filling it with several "science fiction" books and toys he rushed for his coat.

"Wha…? Jamie what are you doing? You've got school today don't you?" she yawed and watched the boy throw on his coat and boots.

Shaking his head as he finished packing his bag Jamie took to looking for his hat and gloves. "Nope. Snow day."

"Snow day? Oh Jamie there's no snow outside today." Looking out the window she was confused.

"Not yet, now by mom! I love you!" Pulling on his hat and grabbing his bag he raced out of his bedroom and down to the living room.

"Jamie, get back here right now!" Hearing the slam of the front door she rolled her eyes and looked back out the window, where to her surprise, there was now a heavy snow fall. "What in the world?" Rubbing her eyes she gazed out the window for several seconds before simply chalking it up to a lack of coffee.

With that she too made her way downstairs to start breakfast and check the news.

Down the street and through the park, Jamie made his way up to the pond near the edge of the woods. The water was finally frozen enough to walk on and with the snow currently blanketing the ground with a light dusting of white he waited.

It was the plan that on the first day of every winter he would meet Jack Frost in this spot. It was after all this very spot where the battle against Pitch was won.

With snow all around him Jamie shrugged and walked over to a nearby tree. Sitting down beneath the cover of its branches he pulled out a large hard back book and flipped to the book mark.

He knew it would take a while for Jack to frost over the towns windows and cover the roads and sidewalks in snow, and in the meantime he could catch up on a little informative reading in his newest book ("Mythical Creatures and the World of Fantasy").

Hours went by and still there was no sign of Jack Frost. Looking up into the emptiness surrounding him Jamie wondered what it could be that was making Jack so late.

OoOoOoOoOoOoO

Not too far away Jack Frost was attempting to quickly frost over another pond. He knew he was late for his meeting with Jamie and wished North hadn't kept him so long the night before. For the first time since he had become a guardian Jack Frost was restless.

So far the only children that could see him were those that had helped him defeat Pitch, and while he loved them dearly he yearned for the attention of even more of the world's children.
With a sigh he turned away from the ice and looked to the sky. 'I've got to meet up with Jamie.'

Through the trees the wind picked up and began to carry Jack in Jamie's direction. Soaring slightly above the tree tops he could see the pond, though Jamie was nowhere to be found. 'Great, now I-'his thoughts were interrupted when another gust of wind began to carry him toward a dense cluster of trees near what appeared to be an old mill of some kind.

"Hey! What the-!?" Struggling against the wind he found himself left hovering over the mill before the wind died down completely. "Whoa~!" Falling through the air he managed to regain control of the wind just before hitting the ground. "What was that all about…?" Suddenly the clouds above parted revealing a half moon. It was clear who had told the wind where to drop Jack Frost, but why the man in the moon would want him here was beyond him.

Little did he know how long the man in the moon had waited for this day to come.

[A.N. So I don't think it's going to be extremely shocking when I say we are about to be introduced to Suzy Snowflake. She is the main character in the fic beside Jack Frost. Now I hope I'm doing a good job at writing Jack's parts so please be gentle and know that I'm trying very hard to keep his personality in tack. I'll get better as I go so be patient please ^^. I've done a LOT of research and I've gotten time periods and such down along with a lot of the lore behind the characters. I'm going for the original story behind Jack Frost and trying to incorporate original ideas. So…if you liked this chapter and would like to leave a review I would love it! I get so much inspiration from my reviewers and readers!]
