Back guys… sorry for the delay… This silly new story I'm planning is a pain to write….
Anyway… here's the chapter.
Chapter Eight: Heart To Heart
Jamie smiled as he woke up looking up at the sleeping figure of Jack, he looked so peaceful when asleep, looking around the room at the smart clock he'd bought Jack the day before, he noticed the date, 14th December,
Jamie sighed as he realised, today was the day he'd promised to decorate the house for Christmas with Sophie. He looked up at Jack, pecking him on the cheek he decided to get up, closing the door behind.
Jamie walked down stairs, he noticed Sophie was sitting at the table texting, no doubt to Pippa. Jamie smiled sitting down,
"Soph, you know what today is?" Jamie asked,
"11 Days till Christmas?" Sophie asked, with a smirk,
"No, I mean yes… but that's not all… todays the day we decorate!" Jamie frowned,
"Yay!" Sophie smiled, "I'll get the stuff from downstairs!"
With that Sophie skipped off, leaving Jamie alone. He looked up the stairs, wondering if Jack would like to decorate with them, shrugging he stood up and decided to at least ask Jack. Walking up the stairs he arrived outside Jack's room, he opened the door to find Jack still laying on the bed, he seemed to be in the middle of awakening.
Jamie smiled as he walked over to the bedside, he clutched Jack's hand in his as Jack awoke, a small smile upon his face,
"Hey Jamie" Jack yawned, opening his eyes, looking up at Jamie. Jamie almost squeaked, the sight of Jack's Azure eyes opening, in his opinion, one of the cutest sight's ever.
"Hey Jack…" Jamie smiled, sitting down on the bed as Jack sat up slightly, "How do you feel about decorating for Christmas?"
Jack looked thoughtful for a minute before nodding slightly, Jamie smiled widely, "Thanks Jack, this will be the best Christmas ever!"
Jamie had to admit, he was getting good at holding himself back from hugging Jack, he now used to the idea of slowly rebuilding the Winter Spirit, but that didn't mean Jack couldn't surprise Jamie with a hug every now and again.
Jamie stood up and Jack followed suit, Jamie walked out of Jack's room and heard a loud crash and an "OUCH!" Coming from downstairs, shaking his head he walked downstairs finding Sophie rubbing her shoulder,
"Did you walk into the door again?" Jamie asked her and Sophie picked up a Santa Paws teddy bear and threw it at Jamie, who grinned, grabbing a second box as Jack poked his head around a corner Sophie smiled to him and continued to throw Christmas themed objects at Jamie, Jack watched curiously as the pair went on and eventually stopped, after Jamie had carried the tree from the basement and placed in down, Sophie hummed and went about decorating the outside of the house which Jamie decorated the celling with lights and streamers, he stood on a ladder while Jack was asked to decorate the walls with different pictures of Christmas, tilting his head he saw one was a very accurate picture of North.
Looking at the small mark on the corner he smirked.
J. Bennett.
Jack had to admit Jamie was very artistic and skilled at it, and at writing. Jack had often found himself reading letters children had sent to North, and often Tales of the Guardian's By Jamie Bennett came up. Jack smiled before hearing a cracking sound he turned around to see the ladder Jamie had been standing on snap and Jamie falling.
Jack leapt into action he caught Jamie bridal style and the younger blinked looking around he saw he was in Jack's arms he smiled, "I think I'll fall off a ladder more often"
Jack frowned and helped Jamie to his feet while, "Please don't" Jack told him, Jamie heard the worried tone before he felt Jack's arms snake around him, he pulled Jack in closer enjoying this brief moment of closeness with Jack, before a few seconds later Jack let go, Jamie sadly followed suit,
The pair then parted to continue with their tasks.
(11pm)
Jamie had just sat down in the kitchen when he saw Jack standing in the doorway, Jamie smiled and motioned for the spirit to join him at the table Jack looked around before slowly walking forward, Jamie smiled slightly, as Jack sat on the table,
Jack looked like he was deep in thought, before several words slipped from his mouth, "You.. you must… want to… to know what happened…."
Jamie blinked as he took in Jack's words, before he looked down at the table, "On if you want to tell me and you feel you are ready"
Jack nodded slowly, he started to stare at the table, "I… Pitch… he… he…"
"Take your time" Jamie told him and Jack nodded,
"He…. Ra… raped… me" Jack told Jamie who's gaze hit the ground and remained silent for a minute… "I knew it… you hate me..."
Jamie looked up at Jack, "Jack… I… I could never… ever hate you, I love you Jack."
Jamie pressed his lips to Jack's, "And I swear, I will kill Pitch when I next see him, he'll know that he cannot mess with my Jack! And I will make sure he never hurts you again"
Jack looked up slightly, "You… don't hate me?"
"No Jack, I don't hate you, I'm happy you trust me so you can tell me, now I think it's time that we get some rest, and I swear as you've done for me all these years, I'll protect you. Because I love you" Jamie smiled, he placed his hand on Jack's leg and Jack nodded,
"Sleep sounds good" Jack agreed
Jamie smiled as he watched Jack stand up, Jamie knew that if a relationship did come about, he would never be able to take the lead, he preferred to be submissive, and he would always be ready to have a relationship with Jack….
And done!
I Really hate having to portray Jack so broken and vulnerable...
