Jack had just finished dancing with Merida and was now dancing with Rapunzel. Ever since he saw the Guardians he was completely on edge. He didn't want to be anywhere near them considering what they had done to him. "I'm really sorry about the little surprise." Rapunzel whispered in his ear. "It wasn't my idea. It was Mother's." She said as the danced to the waltz.

"I'm not blaming you. I just really don't want to be anywhere close to them. That was why I ran away in the first place." He explained while twirling Rapunzel around the dance floor. She smiled at him sympathetically while they kept dancing to the music.

Once the dance was over everybody started to mingle. People bowed as Jack walked past and he bowed back. Jack was dreading talking to the Guardians but he knew that it was coming so he tried to avoid them as long as he could. Jack scanned the ball room until he found who he was looking for. He stated walking towards a very pretty girl with a long blue dress with a slit on the side. Her light blonde hair was in a messy side French braid. "Elsa, may I have this dance?" He asked. Jack didn't know Elsa very well but he decided if he was going to talk or dance with someone at the ball it might as well be someone with the same kind of powers. She smiled politely at him and nodded her head once.

"I would love to." She answered. As they started dancing to Papillon by the Olympic Standard Orchestra, Jack saw the Guardians staring at him from the corner of his eye. He mentally cursed knowing that after the dance the Guardians were definitely going to have a chat with him. He knew they would probably yell at him for everything winter related under the sun and he did not want that to happen. The dance seemed to be over in a matter of seconds and Elsa walked back to her sister and her sister's boyfriend who was apparently raised by trolls.

"Hey mate. We need to talk." Bunny said from behind Jack causing him to wince. Jack turned around to face the warrior pooka.

"If you're going to start yelling at me can we do it somewhere more private?" Jack asked calmly. Bunny nodded and Jack followed him to the back of the ball room. When Tooth saw Jack walking towards her she immediately engulfed him in a hug.

"I am so sorry my little sweet-tooth. I should have known you would never hurt people on purpose." Tooth cried. Jack backed away very surprised by Tooth's actions.

"You guys don't hate me?" He asked surprised. The Guardians were taken back by Jack's words. Did he really think they hated him?

"No малютка; (pronounced Malyutka meaning little one.) We would never hate you." North said. North then hugged Jack as well, almost knocking the crown off of Jack's head. Jack gave a real smile and readjusted the snowflake crown on his head. Sandy then flashed a golden crown and question mark over his head.

"Right um yeah. This is actually real snowflakes that will never melt. I'm really not a big fan of the wardrobe around here;" As Jack stated that, a person walked by him bowing while Jack winced, "Or the bowing." Jack finished.

"Yeah don't expect us to call you your highness any time soon. Tooth and you don't get any special treatment." Bunny said while crossing his arms over his furry chest. Jack smirked.

"Why? Are you jealous?" Jack asked. Bunny rolled his eyes but then smiled warmly.

"No. It's because were family." Bunny said. Jack stood there for a moment contemplating whether he should check himself into a mental hospital or get his ears checked.

"Were family?" Jack's voice broke. Jack looked at the Guardians with a doubtful expression; tears in his eyes. His expression made the Guardian's hearts break. Bunny then realized how little hope Jack really had. Sandy nodded his head while squeezing Jack's hand. Jack smiled.

"Jack, would you like to stay at North Pole with me?" North asked with a soft smile on his face. Jack's eyes widened.

"Really? You mean it?" He asked doubtfully. North smiled.

"Of course; like Bunny said: we are family." North explained. Jack was speechless. They really wanted him to stay. They were serious? Yes; they were serious! He could not believe it. They really wanted him!

"Yes! I would love to. I mean if it's not too much trouble." Jack said warily. He still could not believe what he was hearing.

"You will never be trouble." North said truthfully. Sure, the boy pulled pranks and goofed off but North would never think of him as trouble. Jack was like a son to North. Jack smiled carefully and was about to thank North when someone tapped him on the shoulder. It was a little girl who Jack liked to play with. Mostly because she was the spirit of mischief.

"Prince Jack? Could you tell us a story?" The little girl, Wylie asked. Jack looked behind her to see four other kids behind her all giving him puppy eyes. He sighed dramatically.

"If I must. I spoil you." He said though the smile on his face told a different story.

Jack turned back to the Guardians smiling.

"Go tell the kids a story. You are a Guardian after all." Tooth said. Jack then walked away prepared to tell the kids a story about the pranks he had pulled.

So there is now a cute little happy ending for you. Jack is part of a family. His trust is still fragile but he is getting closer. Hope you enjoyed that. Please review, like, and follow. :D
