"Jack!" Emma cried out, shaking him back in forth in effort to wake him up. Jack groaned and turned over in his bed, his brown hair swept the other side, covering his closed eyes from the sunlight the shone brightly through the windows.

"Jack, come on! Wake up!" Emma laughed. She shoved him harder this time, causing him to turn over yet again, his face now planted against his pillow, still snoring.

"Mother said you needed to wake up!" Emma said shaking him. Jack responded with a sleepy snore. Sighing, Emma ran out of the room yelling out for her mother. "Mother!"

"I'm awake I'm awake," Jack groaned, he rubbed his eyes and groaned as he sat up on his bed. Jack liked his sleep but he wasn't necessarily a heavy sleeper. He could wake up easily, but he just didn't want to get out of bed. Today, he wanted to sleep in; he had gotten the strangest dream. He had wanted to watch his dream until the very end, but his sister had woken him up.

The dream he had was drifting away from his memory now and all he remembered was that he had been flying in the winters dark night sky. He wondered if that would ever be possible, to fly in the sky. He got up and stretched his arms high in the air causing his shirt to rise over his belly button.

Jack sighed; he really wanted to continue that dream. He scratched his head as he walked out of the room and into the kitchen, where his mother was cooking breakfast. "Good morning mother," he said groggily.

"Good, you're awake. Oh, your father said to meet him at the edge of the forest once you were done breakfast so you two can begin to hunt for some game."

Jack nodded and started to eat. Emma was playing by the fireplace with the dolls her mother had made. Soon after, Jack put on his brand new cloak. His mother had sewn him a new one since his other one was too small for him now. Emma hastily got up and grabbed at Jacks hand before he slipped through the door and out into the winter weather.

"Jack," she said with a curious tone as she looked up into his brown eyes. "Can we go skating tomorrow?"

Jack had been giving Emma lessons and he was glad that she was beginning to like it. He gave her a sweet smile as he placed a hand on her shoulder, "Of course!"

Emma gave him a tight hug before Jack went out the door. She bounced on her feet with excitement, she couldn't wait for tomorrow.
