Chapter 3

Omg Chapter 3 yo. Told you I was fast. :3 But its still continuing and I don't know when my next inspiration (and time oppurtunity) will come to me. So yeah! Thank you for following/favoriting. I think the whole story will be about 5 chapters. And tell me if you like my first person POVs. If you like them then I'll do more :) along with the other stories I have planned. *heeheehee* Oh yeah, longer chapter btw. Enjoy!

I woke up to Jack's sea blue eyes staring into mine. I flipped out an almost fell off the bed but Jack caught me by the waist. I blushed but quickly recovered when I found my balance and he let go of me.

"Are you okay?" he asked in that beautiful voice of his.

"Wha?" I replied. He was sitting up on top of the covers and I was underneath them, for the most part after I just fell off.

"You fell asleep about two minutes after the last chapter. You seemed cold so I moved you under the covers... I hope you don't mind! I promise I only moved you."

I remembered that I fell asleep but at what time?

"Nah, I don't mind. But what time-?"

"2:33"

I laughed shakily. Whoops. What time was it now? I needed to finish homework and...

I got a glance of the clock.

11:45

The day was half over!? I haphazardly leaped out of bed and got to the door before stepping back quickly. I pointed at Jack.

"Are you okay? Are you still sick?"

Jack blinked then hopped off the bed.

"I got a lot of rest and I had an excellent care taker, so I should be better."

I blushed at that last comment. I didn't know how much longer I could let Jack stay over. He was way too cute for comfort. Especially since he probably didn't like me back…Probably. Then I saw that he didn't look as sick as he was yesterday... then he let out a gigantic sneeze that blasted wind throughout the room. My hair flew out of my face and I stood there shivering. I guess he was still a bit sick.

I sighed.

"Come with me, Jack"

I handed him a tissue he had kept by the dresser. He took it with a "thanks" and I walked to the kitchen after he threw it out. He floated down the skinny hallway and landed again when he entered the kitchen. I was looking through my agenda.

"Man! I have more than I thought."

Every subject (even art!) had at least 2 assignments. It would take me the. Whole. Frickin. Day.

"Jack, help yourself to whatever you want. I have enough homework to last me the week let alone a couple of hours."

"Maybe I could help?"

"I would love that Jack but we both know that you haven't been to school in... A while." I smirked.

He laughed. "I guess you're right. But do you need anything? You've been helping me so much so…"

"Well if you're so adamant on helping." You smiled and glanced at the dishes.

Jack took it without complaint and besides sneezing a couple of times and asking to turn the heat down again he didn't seem to be so sick anymore. He even straightened up the kitchen a little bit and helped me with my art homework. It helped that Jack could float and get the hard to reach dusting places.

Usually, keeping clean wasn't my strong suit but mom texted me saying "Keep the house clean please. Call if you need me. I should be back by Tuesday."

Well since Jack wanted to help then it was great. It took one more thing off my plate.

By the time I was finished with everything it was 11:00 again. It felt like years and years of work but I got all of it done by 10:50. Jack had decided to leave after I was done with my homework. He waved and said thank you for everything. Then he looked away but came back and gave me a hug. He was really tall so he had to bend down a little to hug me. His chin rested by my shoulder and a cool feeling, not a freezing one, washed over me. Iwas wide eyed but hugged him back.

"Thank you again, for everything."

"You gonna be okay without me, Jack?" I asked. "You're still sick."

He moved a little bit back but didn't break the hug.

"I'm going to be fine. What do you take me for snowflake? Thanks for everything."

He moved away this time and walked out the door. My mouth hung open just a bit. Did he just call me snowflake? Well…. That was surely because of the snowflake pajama pants! He turned his head and headed off for… somewhere.

I yawned, exhausted.

Then I realized that Jack was slightly blushing... as he was hugging… me.

…

Nope. No way. That was just Jack being sick right? Sick blush, that's it. Fever blush. That was it.

Right?

Anyways, it was an early day at school tomorrow and I did not want to wake up late. As I turned to go to bed I let out a gigantic sneeze and shivered. As I got underneath the covers my head pitched a little bit and the room spun a little.

"I'm just tired. It'll be gone by morning."

**** Time skip- 2nd period Monday****

It was not gone by morning. The sneeze and the slight headache turned into a full blown disease. Of what I wasn't sure.

I silently groaned to myself as I sneezed into a yet another tissue. I had a massive headache on the bus and basically felt awful now. Not to mention it rained yesterday and left everything damp. Not a shock because it was March 4th. You know. Crazy weather and all that. But it was a cold rain, basically another part of winter weather. And evidently, with the chill I felt this morning, silly me, I forgot to turn up the heat.

My favorite subject's teacher looked at me with concern in her eyes. While everyone else was finishing a quiz (I was already done) the teacher asked "Do you want to go to the nurse?"

I smiled through a runny nose and then grabbed a paper towel I had sitting at my desk.

"It's not a problem Mrs. (teacher name of your choice). I probably just caught a cold from one of my friends."

I grimaced when she turned away evidently somewhat satisfied with my answer. My head hurt a lot more than I was willing to let on.

I probably caught the cold from Jack. Honestly, I would have gone home but both of my parents weren't anywhere close by and I took the bus this morning instead of the car. I guessed that I would just have to stick it out until the end of the day.

I didn't know that Jack was watching from the window.

****Time skip #2*****

Jack knocked on the glass door and I almost tripped as I walked to it. I had just got home and took some ibuprofen for my headache. I was just taking a nap when Jack knocked.

"Yeah Jack?" I sounded horrible. On the contrary he looked fine.

Reflecting my sediments he said,

"You sound awful."

"Well then come in Jack."

He smiled slightly then reached out and felt my forehead. His mouth fell open slightly then he looked extremely worried.

"Okay, I'm cold but I'm not that cold. You definitely have a fever."

I mumbled halfheartedly in agreement.

"Too bad I have three tests tomorrow."

"Hmm." Jack's eyes lit up. "I could give everyone a snow day. You included :)"

I nodded as much as my headache would allow.

"Alright, let's get you taken care of." He said, coming in and shutting the door.

"No Jack... ACHOO!" Blegh. Snot was running down my nose. Gross. I grabbed a tissue.

"jyoo don have to (you don't have to)"

"No." He replied, "I think I do." He put down his staff on the couch.

"Let's get you to your room."

He picked me up bridal style and was bringing me to my room before I realized enough to stop him from seeing the horror of ten thousand clothes, books, school work, and various colors of underwear and bras littered in every corner.

"No. My room looks like it exploded all over itself. The guest room."

He smirked. "It can't be that bad."

"No it's that bad." I pointed like a kid to the door down the hall.

"The guest room."

He laughed. "Sure your highness. Sure."

Once he had me situated in the guest room with tissues, water, and enough blankets readily available for an army he left to make a snowstorm. Before he left though he changed the temperature back to a normal 62 degrees which he was shocked to see wasn't changed last night.

"My goodness. You might be sicker than I was."

Well. He was right.

It was wonderful to know someone who could get you out of school with a) not getting into any kind of trouble b) letting you rest for a day in your extremely busy schedule.

Jack came back the next day and saw that I still wasn't feeling well. He said that it took him a while to create that big of a snowstorm and longer to coordinate it to go towards my school area.

"No worries, I won't leave again till your better. I created the storm for a two day time limit. So you have off tomorrow too."

I smiled under closed eyes.

"Thanks, Jack. Uhm..."

"Yeah?"

"Its too hot. Can you get me an ice pack?"

"Where are they?"

"In the freezer." He walked up to the freezer and found no ice packs. I used them all up on Jack and they were disposable so I didn't think twice about throwing them out. Jack walked back to my bed side where I was holding my head.

"Ice pack?"

"None left."

"Dang it."

Jack put his hand on my forehead and seemed to be relieved to see that my hands moved away from my forehead and relaxed a bit. The perfect ice pack. He wasn't prepared however that I put my hands on top of the one he had on my forehead and pressed it in a little. The coolness seeped more into my head and stopped the rapid pounding, gently chilling it to a dull throb.

Jack blushed (unbeknownst to me) and moved his hand away. I sat up and let my head fall into his shoulder. His entire body was cool, not just his hands.

"You're the best ice pack I can get." I mumbled. What was I even saying anymore? I couldn't tell and didn't care as I started to fall back asleep. Jack moved my head back to the pillow and sat on top of the covers next to me. I curled up next to him and rested my head on his chest. His nose was right up against my hair.

Jack's Pov:

I smelt her shampoo and breathed it in softly so it wouldn't disturb her. Then I saw the snowflake necklace.

Once I was sure she was asleep I brought it up so I could make sure. It really was the snowflake. I blushed as much as blushing was allowed for someone as cold as me.

"You're too cute. Stop being cute."

She didn't stop. She would never stop being cute. Her face rested and mushed slightly against my chest and her mouth was slightly open just as mine was a couple of days ago. Then I silently gave a quick kiss to her forehead and fell asleep next to her blushing. I was still slightly recovering from sickness so I fell asleep fast. Fluffy jumped up and snuggled in between us both and purred as I pet him lightly. I loved this cat... Almost as much as I loved my beautiful friend.

And the snow outside continued to fall in pretty and flowing patterns from the snowstorm I had created for her.

I'm trying not to create this for a specific person so I'm not gonna mention names and such. Also trying to work around first person so that's why it's from Jack's Pov in the end. Hope you liked it ^^ and you'll get better soon promise! (I hate being sick :P But it's nice when you have someone to take care of you! 'Specially Jack~. )
