Chapter 10

North went to check on Flurry before he left and fond Jack reading to her the Night Before Christmas, "That looks nothing like North?" Flurry said with a giggle.

"I know now let me finish," Jack smiled at finished the story, "'But I heard him exclaim, era he drove out of sight Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.'"

Flurry was laughing as he laid Flurry down on the couch to sleep, "Now get some sleep, Flurry. If you need me I be right behind those doors in a room I stay when we have a l meeting, and Aunt Suvi is right there in front of the fireplace. You got Bunbun?"

The little girl held up her homemade rabbit and hugged it tight, "Night, Papa," she gave Jack hug and a kiss on the check.

"Night my little Snow angle," Jack returned the hug and the kiss.

Leaving with Jack he looked at the young boy, "You are a good father, Jack," North said patting his back.

"She called me Papa," Jack smiled, "That the first time she called me Papa. She usually calls me Papa Jack."

"Get some sleep, Jack," North smiled back at him.

North just finished delivering toys and was on the way to Santoff Claussen, the place he learned magic and found the closest person he saw a sibling, Katherine. He knew that she would be in the Ganderly. When North got close, he saw that the light was on knowing that Katherine was up. She was close to Nightlight maybe she would know his were about.

Katherine heard the reindeer land and smiled knowing who it was. She went to the door and opened before he could knock, "Hello, North," she smiled at the man she saw as her older brother, "How are you?" she let the tall in.

"I'm good, but I wish I was here for better reason," North sighed looking at the woman who still looked so young while he looked like a much older man.

"North come in I'll make some hot chocolate and we can talk about what is on your mind," she went into kitchen, and he heard her moving around and saw that she got the present he made waiting to be opened.

She came back with two mugs of hot cocoa he smiled at her, "So what is on the mind of you North?"

"We have a new guardian," he started and that got her attention her grey eyes wide with surprise.

"Who might he or she be?"

"His name is Jack Frost his is a winter spirit," North started, "Not much known about him only that his little over three hundred years old, is the General of Winter, had a younger sister who he saved before we turned into a spirit, and Tooth as a crush on him."

The last part made Katherine smile a little, "Did you ask Toothiana?"

North nodded and sighed again, "A few weeks ago Jack was going to the places that needed snow. I seen Jack do his job before and he very careful when he makes it snow expect in '68 when he ruined Easter…"

"How Aster take that?"

"Not well but they have become good friends, but he was at the pond in Burgess," he noticed her eyes dilated but kept going, "A fire spirit attacked him. Sandy said that if Jack didn't take to the air that the whole town could have been burned to the ground. His alive which surprised all of, but now he has memories are jumbled. He'll wake from a nightmare and be asking for his little sister."

Katherine looked out the window, "I suspect Mother Nature showed up?"

"Yes, she talked to the wind. Wind said to that we need to talk to Nightlight. You two were close when you were younger. Do you know what happened to him?

"North, the Jack Frost what is his whole name?"

"Jackson Overland Frost," North said watching she got up and looked out the window and at the moon.

Closing her eyes, she took a deep breath and turned and looked at North, "I'm sorry North, but a few days ago Manny came to me and told me to keep his were about to myself. He is doing something for MIM. As for Jack, I can tell you this he is headstrong, stubborn, and had a loving heart."

"You can't tell me because you don't know," North said getting up, "When you see him tell I need to talk to him. He might be the person to help Jack, and what you say about Jack is all true. Have you meet him?"

Katherine nodded and smiled "Tooth, might be more help than you thank," Katherine told him with a gentle smile, "Merry Christmas."

"Sweet dream," North told her getting in his sleigh and take off and he did not see getting on her Kailash and ride off in the other direction.

Jack woke in a cold sweat and got out of bed and checked on Flurry who was cuddled up next to Aviva and Tooth covering the little girl with a light blue blanket with white snowflakes on it. Tooth looked at him put her finger against her lips ushered him back to his room, "You should still be in bed," she stated.

"You should be collecting teeth," he countered with a smirk.

"My girls got it tonight like they do every Christmas," she walked pass him to get some water and Jack gently grab her arm before she could pass.

She looked at him in confusion, "Jack?" she looked at him in his glacier blue eyes that could tell so much.

He looked at her and leaned into her but let her arm go and turned his head, "Thanks for helping."

She looked at him and touched his arm gently making him look at her. Gathering her courage, she placed her warm lips onto his cool ones. Jack was in shock before he kissed her back.

Jack nibbled onto Tooth's bottom lip causing her to open her mouth and his tongue swept into her mouth. They wrapped their arms around each other. She though he tasted like mint and smelled like pine. Jack smelled the lavender she used in her bath, and he tasted kiwi her favorite fruit.

Jack gentle pushed her against the wall as Tooth hands ran threw his hair as he groaned. Pulling back with strength he didn't know he was trying to catch his breath, "Tooth…"

"I want to be with Jack as long as you let me."

Hugged her close Jack gentle kissed her again, "Tooth, let me show you, my world? Winter might be cold but it's beautiful as well. When the sun or the moon hit the snow just right it looks like thousands of jewels glistening."
