April Fool's
Jamie was having the worst day.
It all started when he woke up late this morning and had to rush to make it to class on time…for the late bell…which rung twelve minutes prior to his arrival. And, to make matters worse, after his teacher had kindly allowed him to stay in class, Jamie had no homework to turn it because he had left it on his desk at home! All of his homework! For every single class. So there were four zeros' he had to accept graciously.
In his rush to get to school on time, Jamie had put on mismatching shoes. One red converse and one green. His feet looked like Christmas in April.
Then, at lunch, he made a fool of himself when he slipped on some spilled milk and dropped his own meal, which he had been kind of looking forward to considering he had skipped out on breakfast to try to get to school on time. Half the cafeteria laughed, and normally this wouldn't have bothered him so much, but his start to the day hadn't exactly helped his mood. And none of his friends shared the same lunch he did, so he was forced to pick himself up, and go sit his usual secluded table with his hood up and headphones on.
He was made the butt of several pranks, considering it was April Fool's day, in gym. Among those were getting sprayed with water bottles, having another dudes sweat towel tousled through his hair, and used jock straps stuffed in his locker. He really hated being in the same class as all the "jocks" and "preps." And he hadn't brought spare cloths to change into and, therefore, probably wouldn't have the best smell about him in his final class' of the day.
Then, of course, he humiliated himself in math when he was brooding instead of paying attention, and couldn't answer the teachers question when she called on him. And finally, to top of his worse day at school to date, he got back his test in science (one of his favorite class'), and…well, it wasn't his best. He had totally bombed it and he could see the non vocalized disappointment in his teacher face.
So after a terrible drive home, (why is there so much traffic today?!), Jamie just wanted to throw himself on his bed and try again tomorrow. He finished his walk up the stairs and was so ready to jump onto his unconditionally loving and non-judgmental bed. He opened his door and almost ran full speed ahead to jump onto his mattress when he…walked straight into a snowman?
Jamie nearly knocked the thing over as he plowed into it. He stepped back and blinked a few times just to make sure he was really seeing this. A huge snowman was in his room.
Then he heard a familiar cackling from the window he knew was open behind the snowman.
"Man! I didn't think you'd run into it! I just thought you'd be surprised! April Fool's!"
Jamie felt his blood boil. After the awful day he had been having, he comes home to this?! A huge snowman in the middle of his room, that was likely going to melt and ruin the carpet, not to mention how he was now soaked in freezing, melted snow after toppling into the thing in a cotton hoodie and tee-shirt!
This was it. This was the tipping point. April Fool's, huh? Yeah. Two can play at that.
"Who put this in here? Was it Sophie?" Jamie pondered allowed. His voice was loud and laced with cruelty and sarcasm.
"Uh, right here Jamie. It was obviously me. Don't think Soph could pull this off." Jamie heard Jack lightly chuckle from the window.
"How'd she even pull this off? There can't be enough snow left from that last storm a couple days ago. It would all be mush by now, right? Jamie stood back and made it look like he was really confused about this. He put his hands on his hips, and stared at the snowman in utter awe. Out of the corner of his eye, he could see Jack's amused face becoming really confused.
"Jamie? Have you gone deaf or something?" Jack's voice sounded worried and almost scared. But Jamie didn't care at the moment. Finally, he was in control of something today. He wasn't getting laughed at, and he didn't care that he could be hurting Jack at the moment. At least he wasn't the getting hurt right now.
Deep down, Jamie knew he was being really awful, but he just couldn't bring himself to care at the moment. Home is where he should feel relaxed and happy. Not humiliated. Not like a target. He should've been able to bury himself in his blankets and forget about the day, but Jack made that impossible. Jack came here to prank him! To make a fool of him! Who knows how many more pranks he may have planned? No. He was going to stop it. Now.
Besides, It's only an April Fool's joke, right?
"Hmm? She's not even home. How'd it last so long?" Jamie said in his sarcastic voice. He was chuckling inwardly, finally venting some of his pent up frustrations and anger.
"J-Jamie?" Jack got up from the window and moved towards him. Jamie knew if Jack touched him, it would all be over, and he couldn't give up the gig just yet.
As Jack neared him with his hand out stretched, Jamie quickly threw his arms up dramatically and said: "Guess I'll have to ask when she gets home. I'll go make some hot chocolate now that I'm freezing to death." He said the last bit with a raised tone, emphasizing the words to let Jack know just how annoyed he was. Then he turned and left the room before Jack could catch hold of him.
Jamie slammed the door behind him, a selfish, satisfied smirk on his face. He waited a few more moments, allowing the effects of his prank set in, and then turned around and threw his door wide open.
"APRIL FO-"
Jack was gone…?
Oh no.
Jack…Jack was gone!
Oh crap! Oh man, oh no, oh crap! What have I done?! What am I going do!?
Finally, the full weight of what Jamie had done sank in. Jack is out there and he thinks Jamie doesn't believe in him!
"Oh…I'm the worst friend ever."
The anger from the day's events was gone. Now, Jamie just felt awful. He made Jack think he didn't believe in him! His best friend! That's not a prank…that's just cruel and petty. He had taken out his pent up frustrations on Jack, who had nothing to do with his horrible day. Well, maybe the prank wouldn't have made him feel better after all the pranks he had gone through in gym.
But Jack did say he didn't think he would've run into it...it was just supposed to surprise him...
Jack had just wanted to have a little fun, of course he would prank him on April Fool's day! Jack was practically the king of pranks.
And Jamie had gone off the deep in.
Jamie sighed deeply, feeling a bit panicky. This couldn't be good for Jack. Jamie knew this had to be really tearing at his mentality. Jamie is his first believer and best friend! Jack was his big brother! They were family!
How could he do this to Jack when he knew how fragile of a topic belief is to Jack after three centuries of being ignored and invisible. Jack's prank had been innocent and fun, and Jamie's had just been cruel because he had let a bad day get the better of him. It wasn't a prank at all! Pranks aren't supposed to hurt people! They're supposed to be funny for both the prankster and the victim, but no. Jamie had to take it a step too far. He had hurt Jack in a very sore spot. Opened wounds created by three hundred years of pain, neglect, and utter loneliness.
"Oh God…" Jamie uttered, feeling his pulse racing as if he were about to have a panic attack.
If this was how he was feeling, he didn't want to think about what Jack could be…
He had to find him.
Jamie had to find him!
"Uhhh…" Jamie muttered aloud, pulling at his hair. "Think Bennett, think! Where would he go? The North Pole? Tooth Palace? The Warren? Ugh!"
No. No he wouldn't go to any of those places. He'd go somewhere to be alone, and chances are, all Jamie had to do was hop the fence in his back yard and take a quick sprint to the year-round frozen lake.
Without a second thought, Jamie was sprinting down the stairs and out the back door.
