Hey guys! I'm still alive, don't worry, I'm sorry about that long time of not posting anything but yeah you know, school and stuff, but well! Fourth chapter here. Please review me your ideas so I can post stuff faster :).
~But now was different, he had in his hands the chance to broke the wall between them or creating a huge abyss in the middle of both, his hand shaked a little as one of his fingers touched the snow, with a slow but constant movement he began to write the words that first came to his mind.
...Just believe in me...~
"What the fuck?!" She said loudly while staring at the white snow "How the hell can I believe in something or someone I can't see nor touch?! But... Are you a ghost?" The scared girl looked at her surroundings when that last question came out of her mouth, but the only thing she could see was darkness, snow and the weird snowman that makes her shiver a little, suddenly, something moved from behind her...
She heard THAT something... Just as a heavy footstep.
Kat turned quickly expecting to find someone or something paranormal, but still nothing, she could hear her heart pumping through her chest and screamed when a snowball hit her on her stomach.
Jack Frost was just at the edge of giving up, he just wanted her attention so badly, the winter spirit was mad at her and her amazing lack of faith, but he was mostly angry at himself, at his stupidness, at his credulity, he stomped a small pile of snow and Katherine quickly turned to face him, he realized that he could still move objects and somehow make his presence real to her, so the "young" man took his chances once more and decided to throw a snowball directly at her belly.
Kat's scream turned into a small giggle and back again into a single scream as she understood what just happened, a snowball began to FLOAT out of nowhere and THREW ITSELF towards her, millions of questions appeared on her head and without noticing it Jack Frost's feet started to slowly appear, she was about to turn her face and look at the place where the ball had been "thrown", but another scream caught her attention and Jack become completely invisible once more.
"Kathy! Honey! Are you alright?! I heard your screams!" Her mother asked while quickly running downstairs, panick was obvious on her voice.
"Yeah, of course I am" Kat lied, she was actually terrified! "I- I just wanted to relax In the snow! Yeah super comfy".
"Are you sure? I didn't heard you going downstairs and... I thought you fell from the balcony" Her mother said stopping her little race and calming down a little "I'm fine, don't worry".
"Look Kitty" A deep voice said from upstairs "We are just looking forward to you" She giggled again "Hehe. Yeah old man I'm fine, the snow is calming me" she lied once more, her lies where so obvious to the winter spirit's eyes.
Jack looked at the moon as the girl was having the little conversation with her parents, he expected an advise from the one and only Man On The Moon, but he remained silent... Jack slowly angered, he was sure that Manny was hiding something from him, but no matter how much he begged to the moon he just received the same... Silence.
Jack turned just as the girl was going towards the door of her house, he panicked at the thought of losing the perfect opportunity to finally make her believe, so he decided to throw another snowball at the back of her head, she stopped immediately and turned, once more, to nothing but darkness, but at her surprise (and his too) Jack had a plan, he picked up a big amount of snow with his hands and rubbed it on his face.
The facial features of the youngest guardian got covered by a thin layer of snow, he carefully faced the girl that was in front of him and a terrified expression was all over her face, with slow movements she got closer and closer to the now sort of visible face that was in front of her, she stretched her arm to reach the guy's face but still couldn't feel anything and as her hand passed through the "face" she became even more terrified.
"Yo-you are... A-a-a fucking ghost!... Holy shit!" she whispered loudly and sat on a large rock near her.
"I'm not that anymore" Jack wrote in the snow.
"Yeah sure... And I used to be a fucking penguin" Katherine whispered back while giggling a little louder. -How the hell I'm not having a heart attack?- She thought for herself while still smiling, she could see the flying face getting closer to her and finally it stopped next to her and sat at her side.
"BELIEVE YOU DUMP DESERT" Jack wrote smiling.
"Desert?" She tilted her head
"Your faith had dried out in your soul... So I believe that makes you a desert, a desert of broken dreams"
Some seconds that felt like eternity passed after Jack's sort of text, he didn't knew if he was actually doing the right thing in telling her what he just did, but well... He did, and there was no way of taking his words back.
"Who are you supposed to be?" The black-haired girl finally asked with an unusual calm.
"I'm Jack Frost, guardian of childhood, winter and fun".
"OH!" The girl said loudly while starting to laugh "I've heard of you! Ha! You bring the snow and ice in winter!"
Her voice was with such sarcastic tone that the poor spirit couldn't do nothing but feel offended by Katherine's words, painful words, he needed a comeback, a good one... But as time passed and nothing, absolutely nothing came to his head he just used something else.
"Want another proof?" He wrote as clear as possible.
Of course she didn't remembered at first, but facepalmed herself when she did, the creepy snowman and the snowcat, plus the 2 snowballs, the gal glanced at the invisible face that was still covered by a small part of snow, the girl slowly took off her gloves, placed her hands on the cold snowy floor and shaped it as a ball.
She closed her eyes tightly, held the snowball a little closer to her chest and finally threw it to the invisible face of the jackass ghost that was right next to her.
Jack jumped in surprise, he cleaned his face and turned to Katherine, his eyes wide as plates, she was still with her both eyes shut, but he could hear her giggles from where he was, he stood up quickly and bent to make another ball as a revenge, he pointed right to her face once more and threw I that enough to catch her attention, but not enough to hurt her.
After the ball hit her face a bright smile appeared on the impacted zone, she whipped the snow from her face and looked up... He was in front if her, a pale young man with snow-white hair, a smile was on his face too, but she knew it was for very different reasons, he was distracted enjoying a little too much that he just had hit her with the snow and now, even though she could see him and, apparently, touch him she couldn't really believe it.
Jack stopped his laughs and turned once more towards the girl, her face looked like she just saw a ghost, he smiled once more, and was preparing another snowball, when a sound directed to him startled the young man at the point of making him almost scream.
-Stop it!- The girl ordered with a shaky voife. Jack could feel how his heartbeats where slowing down, at some moment he thought he was going to pass out right where he was, but fortunately he didn't, Katherine placed a hand in her head, like trying to force her head into creating a logic reason, but as much as she tried to include the world she knew and considered real into all of this, she couldn't, one second ago she was laughing and fighting with some sort of entity she couldn't see, touch nor understand and now that he was right in front of her she was plain scared now.
All of her courage broke as a candy bar, "why the hell am I thinking in candy right now? Stupid stomach!" Katherine thought for herself.
"Uhm, sorry for all the snow, but... You know, it's my job" Jack said smiling and getting closer to the girl, trying to break the awkwardness.
-"What?"- Katherine answered falling back from her little world -"Oh right, you're supposed to be the Tinkerbell that brings winter right?"-
-Tinkerbell?- He thought a little offended and confused, anyway, he was strangely comfortable with her, like if he knew her for his entire life, the awkwardness they had had faded as they talked about everything and nothing at the same time.
-"My mom's name is Vivian and my dad was Adam"- she said smiling.
-"And I suppose they where the people that talked to you from inside the house right?"-.
-"Kind of, my mother was the woman, but the man is Daniel"-.
-"Oh, so your parents are divorced?"-.
-"Heh, not really, it's just... My... My dad is dead"-.
Jack opened wide his eyes, not believing what he heard, he cleared his throat and got closer the Katherine -"I'm really sorry Kat, I can call you Kat right?"-
-"Sure"- She said holding back her tears -" And don't worry about it... Let's just never mention it again ok"-
He just nodded his head in approval while facing the ground
-"Why do you make that snowman so creepy, I feel it's staring at my entire fucking soul"- she said.
-"I'm good making snow, not snowmans. But I am a fucking professional at making snow animals, you should see my rabbits"-.
Jack was sitting once more at Katherine's side, her warm body was right next to his and her pale eyes were facing nowhere, he exhaled heavily -"Katherine, I've been coming here for 5 days now; here, to your house"-.
She turned and faced him, he felt now totally intimidated by those deep grey eyes that he believed where perfect "What the fucking hell is happening to me" he thought, he had a knot in his throat, his feet and hands where shaking and he couldn't keep the eye contact with her.
-"Are you alright Tinkerbell?"- She asked with a playful smile, he tried to answer with words, but as nothing came out of his mouth he just smiled too.
-"And?..."- She said expecting an answer.
-"And what?"- Jack answered, his voice was shaky, but barely noticeable.
Katherine laughed in awkwardness -"Seems that the guardians have a short term memory"-.
-"Oh right! Hehe"- He said smiling and rubbing the back of his head -"It's just that... Why do you think that guy let you go?"-.
-"What guy?"- she tilted her head once more.
-"In the woods"-
-"Oh..."- She said looking to the snow -"Listen I don't wanna talk about it"- a single tear rolled down her cheek -"Please... Just no"-
-"Kat... I helped you. I, I threw an ice rock to his head and I regret nothing"- he said with a small smile, Katherine was still looking to the floor, but the winter spirit could see she was smiling too, he saw how she slowly stood up and started walking towards the door, he sighted with sadness as the girl was leaving.
He got up from the rock and started walking in the opposite direction of the house and the girl, he was going towards the park with his head down and slow steps he felt his eyes burning and his heart slowly breaking, he stopped his walk and stood in the middle of the snow expecting a miracle to happen.
Katherine touched the golden doorknob of the wooden door she looked back almost expecting that white haired guy to be behind her, but he wasn't, she saw the figure of the male spirit standing in the middle of the snow and her heart shrunk a little -After all he did saved me right? I shouldn't be such a bitch"-.
She ran towards the male figure in the distance, but stopped a second to grab her gloves that where right next to the boulder, after putting them on once more she continued running to the male spirit, at the time she was almost reaching him it seems that he was going to start walking again, Katherine forced herself into running faster but when she was finally right behind him she couldn't stop.
She collided against the winter spirit and make him fall with his face against the ground, she laid on his back for a short moment, before reaching his face and placing a small kiss on the guy's cheek -"Thank you... And, I'm sorry"- she said before awkwardly getting up and running back to her house.
Jack Frost slowly stood up after the girl and remained immobile as Katherine went back to her home, he stayed there waiting until Kat arrived save to that wooden door and he remained there as she turned and waved to him as she entered her place, he knew he had a wide stupid smile, but as hard as he tried he couldn't get rid of it, he turned once more towards the moon and stared at it for some moments.
-"It isn't her eyes right?... Will you tell me what is it?"-
After waiting for some minutes for an answer that never came he sighted once more stared to the house and saw that she was staring at him from her window, but as he looked towards her she quickly turned away.
-"Fuck you Manny"- he said smiling -"But thanks"-
