so this chapter is like a part 2 of the story. *warning: Mpreg*
pairings, Jack/Bunnymund
I don't own Rise of the Guardians.
Bunnymund jumped over stone walls covered in moss. He scaled over big hills and leaped over rivers full of paint dye. His breathing was erratic with his heart beating wildly in his chest. He came to a sudden stop in front of a hole.
Bunny panted, he dived into to his burrow. He hopped around a carved out room made of dirt. The earthy smell of the room filled his lungs. His green eyes trained on a basket full of eggs sitting on a small wooden table, in the middle of the living space.
"There ya are!" Bunny said to no one in particular. He picked up a blue basket and looked the eggs over. These eggs were especially made for Sophie to find. He grinned and carried his basket back to Burgess.
Easter Sunday was going according to plan. Bunny felt so believed in, he sang any song he could think of as he ran through his tunnels. He opened a rabbit hole and poked his head out. He scanned the forest and spotted a blonde girl running around in circles. He smiled at her childish behavior.
Bunnymund snuck over to little Sophie before pouncing on her and tickling the surprise out of the young girl. Sophie Bennett squealed with delight. She grabbed the attention of her mother who simply saw her daughter rolling in the grass delighted about something.
"Hey there, little ankle biter," Bunny greeted and hugged the young girl.
"Hi, hi, Bunny!" Sophie replied and began hopping in her rain boots.
"I got some beauty googies for ya, but I'm gonna hide 'em first," Bunny said and watched as Sophie covered her eyes. He chuckled and proceeded to hide the eggs. When he finished, he placed his hand on Sophie's back, pushing her forward. A little too rough.
Sophie fell over on her knees, but she didn't seem to care as she bounced back on her feet.
"Googies! Googies! Googies!" Cried Sophie as she ran around with her pink basket, searching for her eggs. Her mother made a confused face. She kept wondering where her daughter was learning all her aussie slang. She held tighter onto Abby's leash, her dog was acting rowdy. She shrugged it off and threw Abby a biscuit bone before sitting down on her lawn chair with the other parents.
Jack Frost laughed as Jamie fell out of a tree trying to get one of the Easter Bunny's eggs.
"You ok, bud?" Jack loomed over Jamie and offered his hand. Jamie took the hand and shivered. Jack was always so cold, but that only delighted Jamie.
"I'm ok," Jamie replied with a smile. He dusted off the snow and fixed his hat. He looked around the ground for his egg and let out an excited gasp. "I got it!" He hollered and picked up the egg with images of Celtic knots.
Jack clapped his hands. He looked around, seeing all the kids searching for eggs. He noticed Bunny's tail sticking out of a bush. He raised a brow and watched as the over grown rabbit nuzzled Sophie with his pink nose. He let out an amused chuckle.
"Crikey!" Called out Sophie as she found an egg painted with butterflies. The eggs Bunny hid were easy for Sophie to find. Every time she found a new egg her face would light up, her green eyes would sparkle with childhood wonder.
Bunny laid down on the grass, hiding behind shrubs, even when a few kids spotted him they kept their distance. Not wanting to disturb the Easter Bunny that brought them such delicious chocolate.
Sophie yawned and made her way to Bunny with a basket full of eggs. She snuggled against the Pooka and dozed off.
"Aw," Jack walked up to the two, "It's a Kodak moment,"
"Rack off, Frostbite,"
"Is that any way to greet your boyfriend?" Jack asked to which Bunny grunted a reply.
They let silence fill the air between them before Jack spoke up, "I want one,"
"I'm sure there are plenty of my googies for ya ta get your own," Bunny said as he petted Sophie's messy blonde hair.
"No," Jack shook his head and crouched down, "I mean, I want a child,"
Bunny sucked in a breath and started choking on his spit, much to Jack's amusement.
"What?!" Bunny shouted, not realizing he startled Sophie out of sleep.
"Yeah, I've been thinking it's about time you and I produce a baby,"
"Produce!?"
"Make, a baby," Jack amended.
Bunny hopped to his feet and glared at Jack. He wasn't sure if the winter spirit was playing a twisted joke or if he was actually serious. Bunnymund could see Jack was serious. He growled and slugged Sophie over his shoulder. Sophie didn't seem to mind the way Bunny handled her, as long as she could tug on those fluffy ears.
"You have no clue what you're asking for, Frostbite," Bunny growled. He grabbed Sophie's basket and walked away.
Jack smirked. He felt he had been issued a challenge. He was going to get what he wanted because in the end, Jack always got what he wanted.
later...
Jack walked Jamie and his friends home. He noticed how Jamie kept stealing a glance at Cupcake. He smirked and waited until he and Jamie were alone in the Bennett's backyard.
"So, Jamie," Jack said catching Jamie's attention, "Cupcake was looking cute today. Don't you think?"
Jamie Bennett blushed. He looked down at his basket of eggs.
"She did look cute with that bow in her hair," Jamie admitted quietly.
Jack chuckled at Jamie's honesty. Then an idea popped into his head, it was innocent enough.
"Can I ask you something?" Jack asked.
"You already did," Jamie laughed, and whined when Jack ruffled his hair through his hat.
"I'm serious," Jack said. Jamie frowned, he nodded and prepared himself to be serious too.
"What do you think about Bunny and I having a kid?"
Jamie's mouth fell open. He stared wide at the question. After a moment, Jamie shut his mouth and gave the question serious thought. His small hands fiddled one of his eggs. When he had his answer he gave Jack his biggest smile, similar to the one he gave Jack during the teen's initiation into guardian hood.
Jack returned the smile and leaned against his staff.
"You know how cool that sounds!?" Jamie asked, waving an arm out, "Jack Frost and the Easter Bunny having a baby, that's just so weird it's cool!"
"Weird?"
"You gotta admit, it's a little weird,"
Jack nodded. When said out loud, it didn't sound right, but the idea was still pretty cool. 'Cool like me,' Jack thought. The winter spirit grinned. He gave his goodbye to Jamie and went after Bunny.
Bunnymund stretched out on the grass. The day was ending and he was pleased everything went well. He had given his goodbye to Sophie and sighed sadly. It was going to be another year before he would see her. Perhaps he could visit on Christmas.
Bunny watched the clouds roll by. Everything was so peaceful. He frowned. Bunny learned that whenever things got peaceful, that was usually when Jack decided to show his face. Woe and behold, Bunny was right. His nose picked up Jack's fresh scent of winter, and arousal.
Jack flew in on Bunny and immediately straddled his boyfriend. He flashed his perfectly white teeth. Jack couldn't wait to seduce Bunny into wanting a baby.
"I'm ready to go home," Jack said and wiggled his brows, "We need some alone time,"
"Alone time sounds nice. Meaning me alone and away from you!"
"Don't be such a grump!"
"Don't be so childish!"
Jack got in Bunny's face and Bunny pushed against Jack's forehead and growled. They stared each other off. Jack lost and pouted. Bunny smirked smugly.
"Can we just go to the Warren and do naughty things now?"
"No..." Bunny said simply. He ignored Jack's puppy dog eyes and quivering bottom lip. Bunny didn't always have the patience to deal with his young lover and his never ending energy either.
Jack growled. He was determined to get his fun. He smirked and started petting Bunny's chest. He was pleased to receive a purr. He continued to pet Bunny and was working his fingers under the fur to rub at pink nipples that harden right away thanks to Jack's cold touch.
"Come on, Bunny," Jack said with a purr, "Let me make love to you,"
Bunny felt his mental barrier breaking down. He didn't stop Jack from touching him, and welcomed the other's cold touch. He shivered from the cold and let out a moan.
"Ok,"
Jack grinned in victory. He leaned down and planted a kiss on Bunny's lips.
Later at the Warren...
Bunny grunted and continued to ram into Jack's ass. He shivered at how cold Jack was becoming. The grass below them began frosting. Jack moaned loudly and moved his hips back onto his boyfriend's hot erection. He failed to control his powers as he peaked and came.
"Aaahh!" Jack moaned in ecstasy. He trembled because of his orgasm. Bunnymund could feel the winter spirit clench around his dick and came deep inside his lover. The pooka sank his claws into the teenager's pale skin. "Ow! Y-your claws, Bunny!"
Bunnymund snapped his claws away from Jack's hips and panted as he held himself up from collapsing on his boyfriend. Jack was on his hands and knees below Bunny and panted, letting out icy breathes. He just barely noticed the frost on Bunny's fur.
Jack moved to sit on his heels, his movement forced Bunny to sit up on his hind quarters. He ran his pale fingers through his sweaty white hair, Jack turned his head to look over his shoulder at the pooka. Bunny breathed heavily through his nose, still trying to catch his breath.
Bunny caught Jack looking at him and he softly glared back. He could see the mischief dance in those icy blue eyes. Jack pounced on Bunny and straddled him. Before Jack could do anything else, Bunny reached up and pinched Jack's nipples.
"Ow! Let go, Cottontail!"
"Not until ya tell me what you're planning ta do with me?"
Jack grinned. Bunny was slowly beginning to sense Jack's mischief. The winter spirit smiled lovingly down at Bunny. He licked his cold blue lips catching his boyfriend's attention.
"I wanted to ride on top, that's all, Bunny," Jack said in an innocent tone. The rabbit shook his head.
Bunny let Jack go and pushed him off him, and hopped away to one of his clean rivers. He washed off the sweat from his fur with water, then he shook his body, removing the water from his fur.
Jack flew in after Bunny and laughed at how fluffy Bunny looked. The rabbit grunted and smoothed out his fluffy fur. Jack washed off his skin the best he could without freezing the water. He slipped on his clothes and joined Bunny for a nap.
"Do you think there could be a way for us to have a baby?" Jack asked, he settled comfortably on Bunny, with his hand tucked behind his head.
"It would take a lot of hard work," Bunny said, his aussie accent evident. He curled around Jack and rested his head in his paws.
"But we could do it right?"
"Aye,"
"Do you want to have a baby with me?" Jack asked, feeling hopeful that Bunny's current relaxed state would make him lax enough to bend to Jack's desires.
Bunny was unsure of how they could raise a child, but deep in his heart he wanted to give it a try. He sighed and figured it would be impossible to work as a guardian and care for his offspring at the same time.
"No, Jack," Bunny replied sadly, "We are not having a baby,"
Jack cleared his throat and held back his disappointment from showing. He excused himself and jumped into the air, catching the wind and flying to a tunnel out of the Warren. Bunny sighed and watched his boyfriend leave. The rabbit let out a soft whine before tying to doze off. He had a long day and he was ready to rest.
Jack Frost paced North's personal office. He flared his arms in frustration as he explained his current situation.
"So, you think you can help me, North?" Jack asked, stopping in his tracks to face the jolly old man.
St. Nick rubbed his chin through his beard as he thought over what Jack was asking for, he knew he could help his fellow guardian, but he wasn't sure he wanted to conspire behind Bunny's back.
"I know how you and Bunny can have a child," Santa said and leaned back in his big chair and crossed his tattooed arms. The large Russian let out a purr of amusement as he weighed the consequences of getting an unknowing Bunny pregnant . "Bunny will come after us once he knows. Do you understand, Jack?" North asked in his Russian accent.
"I understand," Jack stopped in his tracks to face the jolly old man.
"Then I will make you my special recipe,"
"You have a special recipe for male pregnancy?"
"Yes! How do you think I have so many elves and yetis!?"
Jack laughed softly. He watched the big man get out his chair and gesture Jack to follow him out the door. The winter boy followed and watched out for flying toys. North lead his fellow guardian to the kitchen where a few yetis were making dinner.
"Aye Yetis!" North called to them, "Pull out my special recipe and bring me bakery book!"
The yetis obeyed the command and fetched North what he wanted. North picked up his bakery book and started on the batter for a carrot cupcake. He made Jack prepare the potion for creating pregnancy in males.
"The potion looks purple," Jack said to which North grunted, "The index card says it should look green,"
"You need final ingredients to make potion green," North said and preheated the oven.
Jack read the back of the index card. When he read that he needed a lock of Bunny's hair along with his own hair, he set the card back down on the table next to the beakers. The counter looked like it was covered in a chemistry kit of glass beakers and tubes, with a small lighter.
"I need Bunny's hair," Jack said and bit his lip. North took a pair of scissors from a drawer and handed it to Jack. The teenager took the small object in his hand and looked at it. He pocketed the item and nodded towards North. "I'll be back before you know it,"
Jack Frost rode the wind through the tunnels, making his way into the Warren. He landed on a stone egg warrior and scanned the area for where he last left Bunny. He smiled as his eyes found the rabbit sleeping in the same spot he left him in.
Bunnymund was deep in sleep. His stomach rose and fell with his steady breathing. He curled up on himself and his ears laid back against his head.
Jack really wished he had a camera. He wanted to record this image, and show it off to a flustered rabbit. Creeping closer, the winter spirit was careful not to wake his boyfriend as he snipped off a lock of silver-blue fur.
Before Jack left he kissed Bunny's forehead, right on the floral pattern. He flew back silently to the tunnel he had used earlier to enter the Warren. Bunny opened one eye and peeked around, he swore he could smell Jack's scent close by.
Back at the North Pole, Jack entered the kitchen that was no longer occupied by cooking yetis. Dinner was being served in the dining hall, yetis and elves could be heard slurping up soup.
North had stayed in the kitchen, waiting patiently for Jack, he smiled when the winter boy entered. Jack pulled out the scissors and the lock of hair, he showed off the items with a triumphant grin.
"Good job, Jack!" The Russian boomed. Jack added Bunny's hair along with his own to the potion and watched it fizz and change color. His icy blue eyes brightened when the liquid color changed to a vibrant green color.
"W-Whoa!" Jack grinned and handed North the beaker.
North laughed at Jack's reaction to magic science. He poured the potion into the cupcake batter and mixed it all together. North poured the batter into a cupcake tray he prepared and slipped it into the ready oven.
After the oven beeped, North pulled out the tray and set it out to cool. Jack kept a watchful eye on the innocent pastry, he made sure the elves didn't try and sneak a bite. North encouraged Jack to decorate the cupcake with vanilla icing. Jack eyed the cute Christmas themed paper wrapped around the bread.
"You didn't have any other themes?" Jack asked.
"Nope. Just Christmas," North replied and shrugged with a meek grin.
"Thanks Santa Claus," Jack said and hugged his papa bear. North welcomed Jack and hugged the teen back. He wished Jack good luck and sent him on his way.
Bunnymund scratched an itch by his face with his foot, when he was satisfied he put his foot down. He sniffed the air and twitched his ears. Jack was still gone. He sighed and looked around, all of his eggs were gone too. Bunny frowned and held back on any sad emotions.
The pooka hopped to his den and entered the living space. He eyed the soft white futon and settled on the cushion. He could smell Jack's scent much stronger on one of the futon pillows. He pressed his wet nose against the tan pillow and deeply inhaled Jack's scent. He shivered.
"You know I've farted on that pillow, right?" Jack asked, he purposely snuck up on Bunny.
Bunnymund jolted in surprise, his calm moment was shattered, as expected from Jack Frost. Bunny grimaced at Jack's joke, or at least he hoped it was a joke. Bunny threw the pillow as hard as he could at Jack's grinning face.
Jack felt the thwump of the pillow against his face. He let gravity pull the object away and he continued to grin. He held his staff in one hand and twirled it, while his other hand was in his pocket, holding onto a small box.
"What are ya hidin' in your pocket, Frostbite?" Bunny asked and narrowed his eyes at the hidden object.
"It's a present for you, Cottontail," Jack answered. He pulled out of his pocket the small gift box and presented it to his bunny. Bunnymund took the box and removed the lid, smiling down at the pastry. "This is my way of saying, Happy Easter!"
"Thanks, mate," Bunny said, completely touched by Jack's thoughtfulness. He offered the first bite to Jack, but the teen refused. Bunny shrugged, more for him, and he took a big bite. "This tastes really good!"
"Thanks!"
"Did North make it?"
"… How'd you figure?"
"Only North would put carrot shavings in carrot cupcakes for me,"
"I can't bake,"
"I know,"
Bunny grinned and finished his baked good. He hugged Jack and nuzzled the boy's cheek. He sniffed Jack's neck and inhaled the fresh cool scent. Jack giggled as Bunny's whiskers tickled him. The winter boy hugged his bunny back and smiled into his furry shoulder.
"So, how do you feel?" Jack asked as he pulled away far enough to look at Bunnymund.
"Ta be honest, I feel better than before," Bunny replied and looked away, "I hope you aren't too mad about not having a baby,"
"I'll admit I was disappointed, but I've come around," Jack replied and kissed Bunny deeply, catching the pooka off guard.
Bunny smiled and tilted his head to kiss back. He enjoyed the feeling of Jack's cold lips against his, and right now that was all he wanted. He felt his animal urges to mate take over and he accidently bucked his hips against Jack.
Jack gasped and looked down to see Bunny's member peeking out of it's sheath. Bunny blushed beneath his fur and muttered an apology. He pulled away and hid himself with his paws, but his member was determined for attention. Bunny grunted, not understanding why he was getting so hard.
"I don't understand," Bunny began, "I don't even feel the mood the is right, but ooh I can't... I can't..."
"Can't what?" Jack asked, guessing Bunny's sudden urges were a reaction to the potion.
"I can't hold back," Bunny groaned and pounced on Jack, kissing him feverishly.
Jack welcomed Bunny's aggressive actions and sought to meet his lover's needs. He allowed Bunny to kiss strip them both of clothing. Jack looked down at his naked body and could see his own dick rising to brush against Bunny's hot flesh.
Bunnymund groaned with need. His mind was becoming mush, and his body felt hot. He pressed against Jack's cold body and shivered, wanting more of the winter spirit's body temperature against him. He moved his hips and encouraged Jack move with him.
Jack rolled back his head and groaned, he just wanted to get Bunny so pregnant so badly. He ran his fingers through the pooka's fur and let the soft hair frost over. Jack kissed Bunny's lips and deepened the kiss when the pooka whined for more.
That night Jack knocked Bunny up.
a month later...
The sunlight filtered in through the tunnels and brightened the Warren up. Wind blew and made the trees sway, and the flowers bend. Jack smiled and breathed in the sweet smell of flowers.
Bunnymund laid in his bed, still asleep despite the late hour. He snuggled into his pillow and his leg would twitch now and then indicating he was having a dream. Jack smiled down at Bunny, he was clean and dressed and ready to play.
"Bunny?" Jack called out, "Wake up! It's past noon already!"
Bunny refused to wake up, instead his turned over in his sleep, giving Jack his back. The winter spirit frowned, he would not be ignored. Raising his staff in the air, Jack summoned snow to form and drop on the unsuspecting rabbit.
"Och! That's freezing!" Bunny shouted as he woke up with a start. He shook the snow from his fur and glared at the culprit. Bunny hopped off his bed and yawned.
Jack smiled and moved in to hug Bunny, but the pooka growled.
"Aw, come on," Jack whined, "It was just a little snow,"
"If ya wanna play with snow, Frostbite, go somewhere else," Bunny growled.
"I did!" Jack grinned. "Just this morning I was having a snowball fight with kids at school. It was fun, but now I'm bored,"
"Not my problem,"
"Let's play chase around the world!"
"Not taday, Jack," Bunny said in a tired voice, "I need ta catch up in my work. Plus, my ankles feel swollen." Bunny rubbed his neck trying to ease the tension. The rabbit didn't know what was going wrong with him. He gained weight over the past 32 days, and his confidence was faltering. He didn't feel attractive.
Bunny sat at his kitchen table. He smiled when Jack followed and presented him with breakfast. His young lover had started watching what Bunny was eating, almost controlling it. He wouldn't allow Bunny to sip alcohol, but he did encourage him to eat twice the amount of vegetables than his normal diet.
"Thanks, for the bowl of pea soup, mate," Bunny said meekly as he stared at, not a bowl, but a big pot of split-pea soup. Bunnymund wasn't sure how to tell Jack that he didn't want to always eat what the winter boy made him. It was beginning to make him fat! "But I'm not that hungry..."
"What do you mean?" Jack asked sounding worried. "Don't you like my soup?"
"N-no! It's not that," Bunny said getting nervous, "It's just so early in... in..." The pooka soon became light headed.
"See! You're getting light headed because you need to eat," Jack stated, he watched Bunny make a weird face and felt concerned. "You alright, Bunny?"
Bunny was not alright. He felt a twist in his stomach, he opened his mouth to answer Jack's question but wound up throwing up lasts night's dinner into the pot of freshly made soup. The winter spirit gasped and rushed to his boyfriend's side.
"Bunny!? I'm taking you to the bathroom," Jack said as he pulled Bunny up against him. Bunny covered his mouth with his paw and stared at his mess in shock. He allowed Jack to take him to the bathroom part of the burrow. Good thing too because the rabbit puked a couple more times.
More days passed and Bunny was relieved when the mysterious flu he got a couple weeks ago was finally ending. Bunny wrapped his blanket around his shoulders and walked around in his egg-shaped burrow. He sniffled lightly and sat down on his futon.
Bunny's green eyes looked around the living space. It was quiet and still. Long ears twitched for any trace of Jack Frost. When no echoes of childish laughter could be heard, Bunny let his ears droop. The rabbit's heart was pounding in his chest, and he could sense something wasn't right.
He had a dream last night. It starred Jack, himself, and a baby's crying. Bunny felt a pain in his lower abdomen. Jack was constantly smiling and saying words he couldn't hear. The whole dream was in black and white, no sound and reminded bunny of a 20's film.
Then Jack reached toward Bunny, he could see Jack duck below his line of vision and pull back up with a small bundle that moved. Everything went black except for bold white letters. They read, 'It's a girl.' Then a baby's cry broke through the darkness and woke Bunny with a start.
Bunny hugged himself and looked down at his lumpy belly. He couldn't eat much while he was sick and that made him feel guilty for unknown reasons. Like he was starving himself or something. Now he head a dream where he was no doubt pregnant, and giving birth.
Bunnymund shook his head. He got up and slowly shuffled his feet back to bed. He was tired again and he just wanted to forget about his stomach. The next day he ate like he had a bottomless pit. Jack almost squealed in delight, and he worked hard on making Bunny delicious meals.
After a couple of more weeks, Bunny had enough of food. His tummy was round, not very big, but obvious. He stared down at himself and sighed.
"I look like a pregnant woman," Bunny said to Jack.
"I think you look beautiful," Jack replied. Bunny blushed and crawled on egg-shaped bed. He was getting tired of always being tired. He could barely focus on his work. Jack turned off the lights and hugged Bunny in bed. "No matter what, you'll always look beautiful to me," Jack said and followed it with a kiss.
Bunny smiled and kissed Jack. He felt better with his boyfriend's love and support. He didn't know why his body was going through dramatic changes, but tomorrow he was going to change his diet. Bunny sighed happily and snuggled against Jack.
"Good night, mate," Bunny whispered.
"Good night, Bunny," Jack whispered back.
They both fell fast asleep.
later that night...
Bunnymund stirred. He felt hot and opened his eyes. Jack wasn't in bed, he had fallen to the floor and slept peacefully in an awkward position. Bunny ran a paw through his sweaty fur. His stomach hurt and he felt sick again. The pain increased every time he tried to get up off the bed.
"Jack!?" Bunny called out in concern. He opened his mouth to call again, but he choked it back when a painful sting shot through his whole body. The pooka tensed and groaned in agony. He began to push against the painful pressure and hissed when he relieved himself of the pain.
He felt hot and tired. Bunny couldn't keep his eyes opened and lost consciousness, but before he completely black out, he heard a distant cry.
When Bunny woke up again, he was completely confused. He didn't know what was going on, but he wanted answers. He turned and groaned in pain. The rabbit sighed when Jack appeared through the door way. The teenager walked up to Bunny carrying a small bundle.
The rabbit perked his ears up and stared at the moving towel. Jack sat down next to Bunny and made a concerned face.
"The baby woke me up," Jack explained, "I heard him crying and I could see a mess near your legs. It was really gross," Jack grimaced. Bunny rolled his eyes and looked down to see his sheets replaced with towels.
"How long was I out for?" Bunny asked, looking back at what he suspected was a baby wrapped in a towel.
"About two hours," Jack blushed. "You're fine Bunny. I can see you're doing well, and so is Jack Jr."
Bunny smacked the back of Jack's head. The teenager cried out in indignation. The rabbit shushed him and took the towel away from Jack. Bunnymund didn't know how any of this could have happened, maybe he was still dreaming, but he was excited to see "Jack Jr."
"Crikey!"
Bunny gaped at the single little ball of fluff. His eyes were wide and his jaw hanged, he was baffled by what he was seeing. Jack worried over Bunny's reaction and cupped the pooka's face, grabbing his attention.
"Please be honest, Bunny," Jack said in a desperate tone, "Have you been seeing anyone other than me?"
Bunny gaped at Jack, he was shocked by the question.
"I haven't bloody been with anyone else!"
"Then why is our kid a CAT!"
later at the pole...
North was very pleased. The pregnancy had been successful. Bunny's baby was healthy and doing just perfect. Jack had called North to send him help with Bunnymund. The pooka was having a stressful time coping with the existence of his pregnancy.
Nicholas St. North laid a heavy hand on Bunny's shoulder, giving it a reassuring squeeze. He knew this part was going to be difficult, but he was ready to face it.
"Bunny," North began soothingly, "Jack and myself created a potion that I disguised as a cupcake for you to ingest and be able to bear a child. You gave birth last night only eight weeks into pregnancy and now you have baby girl."
"So, this really is happening?"
"Yes, my friend, we are having this moment,"
"I can't believe you, North!" The rabbit shouted. He was hurt, and felt betrayed by his fellow guardians. "You went behind my back and got me pregnant! That's a terrible thing ta do!"
"I admit very wrong, but not terrible," North sat down in a chair, "I believe we will make great family! That is why I helped Jack get his dream come true,"
Bunnymund turned his attention to Jack. Jack Frost stood quietly in the infirmary part of Santa's workshop. North continued to sit in the chair, watching Jack contemplate a response. Bunny frowned and glanced to his side on the bed, watching his baby huddle closer to him for warmth.
"I did this, because I knew you wanted it, Bunny,"
"And how did ya know I wanted it?"
"Because I looked at your sketches. Every time you drink pass your limit, you make these amazing drawings. One page was us standing together with a bundle in your arms. I just wanted to make you happy,"
"I drew those as a drunk Pooka! They're nothing more than rubbish! I could never have any of those crazy fantasies,"
"You dreamt of me! Didn't you? And now we're together,"
Jack walked up to Bunny and hugged him. He buried his face in the pooka's soft fur and hid himself in the comfort. Bunnymund sighed and hugged back. He was angry and hurt, but he held back his rage wanting to keep a calm composure.
North watched as Bunny's anger fled his face. He mused over how Jack had the ability to cool the hot-headed rabbit down. He got off his chair and walked up to the bed as Bunny and Jack got comfortable. North picked up the kitten and heard it squeak.
Bunny heard his baby squeak and he gave North a warning glare. The big man smiled at the little girl and placed her on the rabbit's chest. The rabbit nuzzled his kit and settled his cheek against Jack's head. North was glad to have Bunny and Jack at his home, that way he could keep a close eye on them.
Jack waited for North to leave the room before he whispered something to Bunny. The pooka grunted and waited for North to move farther away from the door.
"What did ya say, Frostbite?"
"I said, don't be mad at Jack Jr. for my mess,"
"First off, I could never be mad at our kit, second our kit is a girl and we are not naming her Jack Jr. Third, I completely blame you for making me fat," Bunny growled, but the sad look on Jack's face made him sigh, "But I'm happy this happened anyway. I just don't know how we'll do it."
"Do what?"
"Raise a child,"
Jack didn't know how to raise kids, but he figured that their kid had Bunny's patience and it would be an easy job.
"It's going to be fun," Jack said with confidence, "We totally have this cat in the bag!"
"If you say so... Now, think of a better name, mate,"
"What's better than Jack Jr.? I think Jack is a fine name,"
"Nice as it is, I'm not risking having two of you,"
"Then how about you think of a girl's name that at least starts with a J?"
"Sounds fair," Bunny agreed and accepted the challenge. The pooka thought over what type of name to bestow their new born child with, but non of the names seemed to fit. He looked down at his little ball of fluff and watched her latch to his nipple and drink milk.
Bunny grimaced. He really hoped that once their kit was well weaned, he'd stop producing milk. Damn that potion that did weird things to his body.
Bunnymund observed his kitten. She was a complete inky black cat. The kind you want to avoid on Friday the 13th. Bunny furrowed his brows. He looked at Jack and then back at his baby, and right back to Jack.
"Jack?"
"Hm?"
"What day is it?"
"Friday. Why?"
"What number of the month is it?"
"Um?" Jack furrowed his dark brows and thought the question over. "The thirteenth, I think. Why?"
Bunny wondered if this was all a major coincidence. He looked into Jack's worried eyes and whispered something.
"What?" Jack asked softly.
"Jinx,"
The small kitten purred softly as she dozed into sleep. Bunnymund searched his mind trying to find answer as to why he gave birth to an animal so unlike his own. He sighed and decided to give it more thought after a good night's rest.
Jack accepted the name, but he didn't get why Bunny would want to give such a strange name like 'Jinx' to their daughter. The pooka's way of thinking puzzled Jack, but he too was tired from the panic over his boyfriend's physical and emotional condition. He closed his eyes and slept, keeping his cold hand on Bunny's chest, near his baby.
to keep track. Bunny wanted Jack in the beginning, now that he has him, he wants children, now that he has one, what will he want next?
to be continued...
