January 16th~

This was the day that Melody and Jack arrived back at the school in Texas. Apparently Man in the Moon had a spirit put Jack on the school registry. Jack was staying with Melody at the apartment that she and her friends rented. The scholarships that Melody had gotten helped pay for all her needs so she focused on school and well now entertaining Jack. He was in all the same classes as her.

Melody unlocked the door and pushed the door open. Jack whistled as he looked around the apartment.

"Yeah Crystal's dad is rich and furnished the place, but we have to pay rent," Melody picked up her bags, and moved them to her room. Jack followed her and jumped on her bed.

"So which room am I staying in," Jack asked. He had gotten use to sharing the room with Melody and he wasn't sure if he was ready to have his own room.

"Well seeing all the rooms are taken, you will be staying in my room," Melody winked as Jack went to pick her up and kissed her. He rested his forehead against hers and looked into her shinning green eyes.

"I was worried I would have to be staying in my own room," Jack whispered before kissing her again.

"Melody! We're back," a female voice yelled from the living room. Melody pulled back a giggled.

"Ready to meet my friends," Melody asked pulling him out of her room.

"Not really," Jack groaned. He was fine when it came to kids, but teens and adults seemed not to like him very much. Melody smiled and gave his hand a squeeze. In front of him stood two females and three males. Jack was confused on how they all fit in a four room apartment.

"Hey guys this is my boyfriend Jack," she introduced Jack to her friends first. "Jack this is Crystal and Max," Melody pointed to a blonde, blue eye female that was as tall as him and a brunette, brown eye male. "They're dating. That's Sam and Jace," she pointed a fiery red hair, green eye female and black hair blue eyed male. "They're dating too, and the last one is Alex," she pointed to a brunette, green eye male.

"Nice to meet you," Sam smiled and hugged him. Jace chuckled as Jack stiffened before returning the hug.
"Yeah Sam likes to hug people," Alex told him once Sam let him go.

"So Melody when were you going to tells you had a boyfriend," Crystal smirked at her. Melody blushed before Jack wrapped his arm around her and she leaned into him. The action didn't go unnoticed by Sam and Crystal who eager to learn about the new guy in Melody's life.

"So where did you two meet," Crystal asked them once they moved to the couches. Melody and Jack glanced at each other before Melody replied.

"His dad was in Burgress and he was playing in the snow with Jamie. We became close when they got word that his mom died and his dad couldn't handle being around Jack because he looked so much like her that he stayed with us," Melody gave them a small smile. She hated lying to them, but they would send her to the nut house if she told them the true story.

"So you two bonded over snow," Alex raised any eyebrow at that.

"That's all you got out of that," Crystal gave him a horrid look. "I'm soory for your loss Jack."

"It's fine. I've mourned for her and I 'know she would want me to be happy. All I can do is keep moving forward," he sniffled as a tear rolled out of his eye. He was thinking about his family before he became the winter spirit. Melody grabbed his hand and squeezed it. She knew Jack didn't like the story they had come up with, but how else were they going explain taking in someone who they had known for less than a month?
