A/N : Purplefern : I just love how Jack interacts with them! And that's coming from someone who usually dislikes children a lot. But kids in movies are always cuter than those in real life. XD

Hanyoualchemist1 : Oh, Canada, how cool! I'd love to travel there if the flights weren't so expensive. Just like New Zealand, the Caribbean, USA, etc. Being a poor artist sucks. *lol*

AngetianPrincess18 : It would be even nicer of him to give North Germany some snow. *hint hint*


They spent a while convincing Sophie that she had to keep quiet and not run through the house laughing and cheering in excitement just like she had done in her room. When their mother called them for dinner Jack left, after explaining once more to the little girl that she had to act normal or else their secret plan would be ruined and she would have to stay at home. That did the trick and during dinner Jamie was dumbfounded what good of an actor his younger sibling could be. Even if she had showed her happiness he doubted that their mother would have gotten suspiscious. Mrs. Bennett was just relieved that the anger tantrum of her daughter was over. She was too tired from dealing with a grumpy toddler to notice her children glancing at the clock on the wall every few minutes. Jamie had never thought that for once he couldn't wait until it was finally bedtime. Sophie seemed to be having a harder time being patient but whenever she seemed close to blurting out something that might reveal their intentions he quickly sent her a stern look and put his finger on his lips, signaling her to shut up. Suprisingly enough, it actually worked.

Several hours later the excruciating waiting came to and end. When she brought her kids to bed was grateful for their cooperation and that she didn't have to argue about whether they would be allowed to stay up for 5 more minutes or not. As soon as she closed the door behind her a sigh of relief was let out on both sides. The exhausted woman was glad she could finally have a good night's rest and Jamie was happy that everything went according to plan so far. Without further hesitation he jumped out of bed, sneaked to the wardrobe and put on his jacket and his winter boots which he had smuggled into his room earlier this evening. After a second thought he also pulled a scarf and gloves from his drawer and sat down on the windowsill, keeping his eyes open for Jack Frost.

It didn't take long until he saw a familiar white-haired figure dressed in blue and brown appearing in the distance and quickly coming closer. Jamie beamed as if he hadn't seen his best friend for a whole month.

"Hey Jack!" he greeted a little too loud and immediately put his hand on his mouth, hoping that his mother hadn't heard it and continued whispering. "You're punctual to the minute, Mom doesn't suspect a thing so can we go now?"

The winter spirit chuckled at the boy's eagerness and floated right in front of the opened window, his back turned at him.

"What are you waiting for then, jump on!" he winked with an equally excited grin on his face.

Jamie didn't have to be told twice and climbed on the guardian's back, putting his arms firmly around his neck. Together they flew to the next window where Sophie was already waiting and waving at them.

"Your private taxi is here to pick you up, my lady." Jack smiled as he landed on the windowsill and formally bowed down.

The little girl giggled in delight but was immediately hushed by the two males who simultaneously put their index finger on their mouth.

"Sshhh, you gotta be quiet or Mom will hear you." Jamie explained in a whisper.

Sophie covered her own mouth with her hands and vigorously nodded her head in understanding. Upon mustering her appearance Jack raised an eyebrow at her current choice of clothes. She was still only wearing her pyjamas.

"Uhm, I think you should put on something warmer, it's pretty cold outside."

Big green eyes stared at him for a moment before the toddler ran to her wardrobe, rummaged through the opened drawer and eventually put on a…t-shirt over her long-sleeved pyjama top. Jamie mentally facepalmed and rolled his eyes while Jack found it pretty amusing.

"Getting there, but it's really REALLY cold, you'll need something else."

Pondering his words the young girl grabbed a thick woolen pink jersey and pulled it over her other shirts. Only when she saw the purple summer jacket in the mess of clothes in the drawer it dawned on her that it might be appropriate as well. It was made of thin fabric but her winter coat was hanging in the corridor downstairs. As well as her boots…so she just grabbed the first alternative she found in her room, which happened to be a pair of sneakers. After Jack pointed it out she slipped into a pair of woolen socks first and also took her blue scarf and gloves with her.

"That should do." he smiled approvingly when the little girl stood in front of him and spun around to show off her final outfit.

By the time she was finally ready Jamie had almost dropped off to sleep on Jack's back.

"Hey buddy, shall I bring you to bed again?" the frost teen smirked.

His first believer suddenly was wide-awake.

"Heck, no!" he exclaimed and rubbed his eyes. "Is she finally done?"

The brunette boy glanced at his younger sibling who held her arms out to the Guardian of Fun.

"Go go go!"

"I think that means 'yes'." Jack winked and bent down to pick the small child up.

It took a moment to place her in his arms in a way he could still carry his shepherd's crook as well but soon later the trio was flying through the chilly night, only the moon and a clear dark blue sky full of sparkling stars observing what they were up to.

Little Sophie wasn't used to flying, the first time the winter spirit had carried her home she had been fast asleep, and she hadn't made up her mind yet whether she should be excited or scared. Both emotions balanced each other as she gazed at her surroundings and the snowy town under her, eyes wide with wonder, while holding on to Jack's hoodie in a death grip.

"Oh, wait, we forgot my sleigh!" Jamie suddenly blurted out when they were halfway at their destination already.

Not that Jack would have been able carry anything else right now but he felt the need to point it out nevertheless. After all, no sleigh meant no sleigh ride and their nightly escape would be pretty aimless.

"Don't worry, I already brought it there before I picked you two up."

The brown-eyed boy raised an eyebrow at his friend's reply.

"You broke into our garage?"

"'Break into' is such a negative word…it wasn't locked anyway." Jack replied nonchalantly.

A quiet chuckle escaped Jamie's mouth as he imagined his mother checking where the noise Jack might have caused came from and seeing his sleigh float out of the garage on its own. Would have been quite the sight to see her reaction.

"There we are!" the frost teen announced and landed gracefully between the hills where the children and him had spent the day.

Kneeling down he let the Bennett siblings climb off him and smiled in contentment as he stood back up and watched Sophie run around laughing and cheering, joy radiating from every inch of her tiny frame. Jamie couldn't help but grin at his ridiculously happy sister who threw herself onto the soft white ground and made a snow angel.

Despite the lack of sunlight the reflection of the full moon shining down on the snow made it easy and bright enough to see well in the cold night. His eyes darted over the scenery and landed on his sleigh patiently waiting a few feet away from them. But as he walked towards it something else caught his attention. Earlier today when he and his friends were riding on their sleighs Jack had created simple straight ice pathways which only reached from the top of the hills down to the bottom. But now there were several intricate paths with many curves, covering the largest hill and reaching all they way down to continue on the even ground. It looked kind of like a car track made of ice. And made the boy's heart beat in excitement.

"You ready?"

Jamie gave a shout of surprise. He was so absorbed in the sight in front of him that he hadn't noticed Jack suddenly standing beside him.

"You bet!" he grinned from ear to ear.
