What? Is this a joke? Am I being punked? I actually couldn't really help but chuckle a bit, I looked around for any sign of hidden cameras. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary to me. Turning back to look at this so-called Jack Frost, I glared at him with confusion plastered on every inch of my face, and he just stood there concerned, as if I was crazy. Am I?
"Seriously?" I said.
"Surprised?" oh god, he was serious, and now he was only mocking me.
"The Jack Frost from childrens books kids read at night?! I don't believe you." or at least I really didn't want to.
"Want me to prove it?" he said with a cocky tilt of his head. I take back what I said before, now he was mocking me. What kind of trick was he planning to throw at me?
"Ok fine-" but before I could even finish, I was grabbed by my wrist with a jerk and pulled off my feet. WE WERE IN THE AIR, FLYING!
"PUT ME DOWN NOW! PLEASE!" My world was spinning all around and my vision wouldn't adjust, I couldn't help but panic.
"Do you believe me yet?" he shouted so his voice could get past the howling wind around us and back to me.
"YES! I believe you ok! Just please put me down!" I was holding on to him with my life and panting heavily but my wrist began to slip from his grasp. Before I got the chance to fall from the sky, he pulled me up and into his arm. The strong wind pulled at my hair releasing it from the skrunchy that bound my wild blond curls.
"Nah, first take a look at the view" he made a gesture with his staff to the view of the now setting sun. The time sure did fly by fast. I had no other choice but to admire the beautiful pinks and whites of the clouds, the light and dark blue skies that surrounded us. This guy really was Jack Frost and I had to get comfy with the sound of his name. Jack, I could get used to that. My body was at its limit for the day, my eye lids grew heavy and my muscles were relaxing. I was stupid to fall asleep in Jacks hold but my mind suddenly became so calm and peaceful. Even half asleep and drowsy I noticed that beneath his cold sweater, beated a warm heart. One warm with love, strength, and hope. I felt safe with him. As I listened to the thumping tune of his melted heart, I fell asleep in the comfort of a frosty warmth.
My vision was blurry and still adjusting to the light coming from the open window of my room. When did I get here? I sat there for a moment and pieced my memories of yesterday's events together. I noticed my green backpack on the opposite side of the room that and I was still in my dance clothes. Oh yeah, I thought to myself, jack must have brought me home but how did he get in? I'm pretty sure the door was locked. My attention was drawn again to the open window, which answered my question. Lugging my morning lazy self from the sheets, I slowly shuffled myself around the bed to only then realize that I didn't have that dream last night. Wow, it was probably because of the fact that I know who the mystery boy was, Jack Frost. I really needed to wash my face but about half way to my bedroom door I felt something, someone. With a quick turn I saw him. Jack was leaning against the open window sill with one foot up and the other hanging through.
"Mornin' sleepy head" he said with a smile. He was probably referring to the fact that I fell asleep in his arms yesterday.
"Good morning, you know you could knock on this thing called a door" it was harsh but he scared the shit out of me.
"Ouch, that hurt" jack said playfully gesturing his hand to his chest.
"Sorry, I'm still waking up and you scared me when I was least expecting it" it was mostly me because I was still half asleep but people invented doors for a reason
"Haha yeah I'll take the blame and I'll consider knocking next time but not on the door, the window" he slipped from the frame and stood scratching his head
"Sorry about yesterday and thanks for taking me home" I said pretty much blurting it out.
"You're welcome. Oh are you ready yet? We gotta be on our way soon" Jack said.
"Ready for what? Where are we going?"
"Were going to the north pole to get you your memories back remember? Come on we gotta go, the guardians are waiting for us" he said while pulling out a snow globe orb.
"Woah woah wait! If I'm going anywhere with you today I'm taking a shower first! I woke up a few minutes ago and I didn't even get a chance to get ready" I was filthy and I was still clothed in the sweaty clothes from yesterday's incident.
"Ok just hurry it up the earlier we get there the better" Jack put away the orb letting me get ready.
I went to my closet and pulled out a long sleeved black shirt, light blue skinny jeans, and a pair of plain red flats then I moved on to the bathroom. After my shower I dried off and slipped into my clothes and shoes, brushed my hair, and brushed my teeth. When I got out of the bathroom and back into my room I saw Jack standing in front of my dresser observing the multiple bottles of pills.
"Why do you need all of this?" his voice wasn't sad but it sounded worried.
"I'm still a bit sick from the accident but it's nothing to worry about" I put my hand on his shoulder "Come on were wasting time. I'll meet you outside" he nodded and flew out the window. I took my weekly shot and some vitamins then I headed outside through the front door where jack was waiting for me. His expression was lighter and happier.
"You ready?" Jack said holding out his hand waiting for me to take it. I nodded and just when I was about to grab his hand I saw a dark shadow move from behind him in the forest and felt a dark aura in the air surely after.
"What's wrong?" my attention snapped back to Jack who again looked worried. I hated seeing this kind if expression on people. The sour look of pity and the expectation of weakness.
"Oh its nothing lets go" I said and he shrugged as he pulled out the orb once more and whispered
"North pole" then he threw it on the ground. A huge rainbow swirling portal exposed itself in front of us. Nothing but a simple
"Wow..." slipped my mouth. Jack looked back at me and shot me a big cheeky smile. My face flared at the site of the beautiful snow angel in front of me. He held out his hand once more and I took it. He pulled me into the colorful vortex and we left the gloomy lightless feeling behind. Almost instantly we appeared in a massive sized room and I almost stumbled at the site of it. There were tiny triangular shaped people running all around a grand red carpet with beautiful stitched designs all over. The decor of the room was something you would expect to see in an updated cabin mansion. Covered with mostly crimson red flourishments. Before me I saw a huge globe of the world with thousands, no millions of little lights around the countries. And around it were gadgets and trinkets swirling through the air and moving on to different levels framing the globe. I turn around and my jaw fell at what I was seeing. My four favorite heroes from tales and stories; Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny, and Sandman. What the hell did I pull myself into?!
