Rapunzel cuddled under the blankets. It was a particularly cool evening, but Rapunzel didn't mind, it meant her favorite person in the whole world, the only person she knew besides her mother, could pop in for a visit at any time. Some nights she would stay up for a while, past her bedtime, even though her mother forbade it, just so she could see him. He didn't come every cool evening, but when he did, it more than made up for the times when he couldn't be there.

A soft yet chilly breeze blew past her face. She rubbed her nose, chasing the chill away, so she could go to sleep. Then it blew past her face again. This time, her eyes flew open and she let out a soft squeal as she bounded out of bed. Pascal grunted before turning over.

"Oh come on Pascal, he's here!" Pascal merely grunted again before pulling the blankets over his head. Rapunzel huffed. "Fine, I'll say hi to him for you then." She bounded off without waiting for a reply. She was so excited! He always had some new tale to tell, some new adventure that would make her laugh like she had never laughed before. And he would always say he enjoyed making her laugh.

She reached the bottom of the stairs and dashed towards the window, throwing it open. "Jack!" No answer. She glanced down, freshly fallen snow glittered in the pale moonlight. Where was he? She glanced up, and let out a squeal when a pair of cold lips kissed her nose. She giggled as she backed away from the window, allowing the pale boy to fly in. He landed nimbly and bowed.

"And how is the princess of the tower doing today?"

Rapunzel bounced on her toes. "Soo happy to see you Jack!"

He straightened up and grinned. "Glad to hear it." He opened his arms, and Rapunzel rushed into them. His staff clattered to the floor as he returned the hug. Unlike her mother, Jack accepted hugs with as much willingness as Rapunzel was to give them, and there had been a few times neither one wanted to let go. But this time Rapunzel stepped back first, though her hands lingered on Jack's shoulders.

"So, what adventures did you have today?"

Jack's eyes twinkled with merry mischief. "Well, I made a party more fun."

Rapunzel blinked. "What? A party more fun? But I thought you said parties were always fun!"

Jack laughed. "Yes, well, I don't know how, but the people at this party managed to figure out how to make a party not fun. So I decided to lend a hand and make it fun."

"Oh, how?"

Jack snickered. "By throwing snowballs at their faces."

Rapunzel gasped. "Jack, that doesn't sound nice!"

"But it works every time! I throw a snowball in someone's face, they start having fun. Well, these folks finally started having some fun, and they even started dancing!"

"Oh, I wish I could have been there. It sounds like it was such fun!"

"Oh it certainly was!"

"Jack?"

"Yeah?"

"Could you teach me to dance?"

Jack tilted his head. "I don't know, I never really learned. I mean, sure, I know what it looks like, doesn't mean I know how to do it." He leaned back on the wall and crossed his arms. "Besides, it's not easy to practice when no one else can see or touch me."

"But I can," said Rapunzel, fluttering her eyelashes.

Jack smirked. "Yeah, there's that. Well then, will you be my practice partner, princess?" He bowed.

Rapnzel giggled as she gave a curtsy. "It shall be my pleasure, oh kind knight."

Jack grinned as he straightened up, his eyes twinkling merrily. He held out his hand. "Well, we start with holding each other's hands."

Rapunzel blushed. "R-really?"

"Oh don't worry, it'll be our secret. Only you, me, and the Man in the Moon will know." He nodded at the full moon shining through the window. "And since your mom doesn't believe in him, he won't say a word." He winked. "And she can't see me either, so it's just you who doesn't have to tell your mom."

Rapunzel placed her hands on her hips. "Oh sure, thanks, place all the burden on me."

"What? It's perfectly easy to do, she can't see or hear me." He stuck his tongue out at her.

"Jack Frost, you jerk!" Rapunzel grabbed her broom and chased Jack around the house before he grabbed his staff and the two fenced for a time. They eventually fell over laughing.

"So, you want to dance, or what?"

Rapunzel's eyes sparkled. "Of course!"

Jack bounced up and helped Rapunzel up "Then let's get started! Don't need your mom thinking you're more crazy than you already are."

"Jack!" She swatted his arm.

Jack chuckled. Then with a grin, grabbed her hand and placed it on his shoulder while holding the other in his hand. He placed his right hand around her waist. "Well then, let's get started!" They went a little slowly, and awkwardly, but by the time Jack left, the two were starting to get the hang of it.

Rapunzel waved goodbye to Jack when he left, watching him fly away. She stayed at the windowsill, staring out at the sky even though he was gone from her sight. He had used to promise to return every time he left, but he stopped doing that, because she knew now that he would come back whenever he got the chance. And he had come back, bringing with him tales and new things to learn about. She yawned before finally tearing herself away and closing the shutters. She rubbed her eyes as she meandered up the stairs to her bed. She crawled in and pulled the covers up to her chin, smiling brightly as she drifted off to sleep.
