Chapter 2
I was really excited to write this chapter! Weee!
Rapunzel's POV
"Punzie! Come here! Let's play with some snow! Hahaha" I heard that familiar voice again. I can only remember so much. He's my childhood friend. He loves snow and he's the only one who understands me. The funny thing is that he said that his dream is to grow taller than me and have white hair, so that he could camouflage with the snow, whenever we're playing hide and seek.
I always win though, and it always ends up having him tackling me in the snow and my body completely buried in them. Everything went perfect until his parents divorced, so he was forced to move with his mother to Burgess. I miss him, i still do, up until now. But I doubt that he still remembers me. I smiled sadly at a picture frame that holds a memory of when I was 5 and he was 3.
I never thought that I would actually have him as a friend, or even a boy as my best friend. Our age gap is actually what joined us together. When I was in grade 2 his mother would leave him in my house so that i could babysit him. And when he's hungry I would give him some snacks. There was a time though, when I was accompanying him to pre-school and saw that he was bullied so I always stand up to him and pinch the bullies' cheeks and scold them softly, cause the ARE still kids.
I laid on the floor holding the small frame on my chest and smiled. I felt something cold poked my forehead and opened my eyes and saw someone's face so close to mine, that I could feel his cold breath.
"AAAHH!" I accidentally bumped my forehead to his.
"Ouch. Why did you do that? You're forehead's like steel metal. Jesus.." He cursed under his breath.
"Hey! My forehead's not that hard, and sorry, sheesh" I pouted and he just chuckles and flicked my forehead.
"That's steel, alright. Why are you here anyways? Homeroom isn't over, yet." I realized that his eyes were the warmest color of brown, I don't know how, but they look so familiar. I snapped out of my train of thoughts when he waved his hand in front of my face.
"Wha..what did you say?" I shook my head, filled with thoughts.
"I said that homeroom isn't over yet. Why are you so easily distracted? Oh i get it" he put a handsome smirk- WAIT! Did i actually think that this annoying guy is good-looking? .RAPUNZEL. Okay..breathe in..breathe out..
"Get what, huh?" I asked with an annoyed face. His smirk never leaving his face.
"You think I'm handsome, don't cha' ?" He said while wriggling his eyebrows.
"SHU-SHUT UP! I barely know you! And- and even if I do, I wouldn't even..ermh..like someone that's a jerk like you. Hey! Are you even listening to me? Wipe that stupid smirk of your face!" By now I think my face is just flushed red. Even though I feel angered, I still look flustered. Then he did something I didn't expect. He chuckled. I was mad at him, he acted so annoying, and yet he chuckled. Of all things, he chuckled. "Humph!" I pouted, my back facing him, while sitting cross-legged, and crossing my arms.
I felt him hug me from behind, surprised I stiffed and my face was blushing madly. He snuggled his face on the crook of my neck. His long arms are hugging me softly. My crossed legs were between his long parted legs.
"Punz, you haven't changed at all. Still stubborn as always."
I noticed the nickname he gave me, I was struggling to get out of his grip before, but now I just stopped trying. My body froze and my heart was beating so hard, my chest hurts. There's only one person who calls me that, but he left..
"Ja..Jack?"
"Yep, it's me. The one and only!" He stood, and weirdly I felt lonely and missed his warm hold of me. He sat in front of me, also cross-legged, his arms between his legs, his face showing a familiar happy grin. "Don't I get a welcome back hug?" He said cheerfully, opening his arms wide.
Guys, look. I know it's a little short. Okay veeery short. But still! I'm gonna write more, okay.
