;hey guys :) not much to say so enjoy reading!;
Daughter Nature's eyes shot open as she snapped back to reality.
She gasped like she had been holding her breath and looked around her room. Nothing had moved or changed since she had sat down and opened the case. How long had she been viewing her memories?
Maeve looked at the container in her hands. It looked the same way it had when she first opened it. She tossed it around in her hands like it was scolding hot before dropping it at her feet and scrambling backwards.
Baby tooth flew up next to her and squeaked asking if she was ok.
Maeve looked back and forth between Baby tooth and the teeth container wide eyed and jaw dropped. She pointed at the box with both hands, which started shaking.
"Did you-?! Did you see that?!" She asked barely able to get words to form. Baby tooth shook her head but Maeve wasn't listening. Over excited, she jumped onto her knees. "It was ME!" She exclaimed. "I-I was blonde! I spoke French! I had a dad! And dog! Well actually it's a wolf but what ever! I traveled from France to America and I lived in Burgess and I had a boyfriend and we went dancing in a large field covered in flowers-!"
Maeve cut herself off as her eyes grew wider. "Oh my god..." She muttered looking at the container. "Oh my god!"
Jumping off the bed, Daughter Nature grabbed her teeth ran out of the room. Baby tooth squeaked confused and flew after her. Sprinting across the hall, Maeve threw open her art studios door and turned on the light. Moving her art supplies aside, she stared at the large mural she had finished last week.
It that one of the blonde haired girl dancing with the burnet boy in the large flower covered field with the forest in the background.
Maeve looked at Baby tooth wide eyed and jaw hanging as she shook her out stretched arms at the painting. Baby tooth tilted her head, clearly concerned for Daughter Nature.
"That's- that's me!" Maeve exclaimed wagging her pointed hand. She half laughed then spun a 180 to look around the room at the murals she had painted. "All of these! All of these must be me!" She waved her arms around gesturing at all the walls.
Baby tooth titled her head. She squeaked asking if Maeve felt ok. "Yes I'm fine!" She exclaimed. "Better than fine!" This only seemed to startle the tooth fairy more. Maeve took a deep breath and tried to calm down.
"It- it was just- it was just me! We- I have more in common than the same eyes! I had the same voice, and the same personality! I just looked different!" Daughter Nature exclaimed. "And all these people! They aren't characters or just images in my mind! They actually existed! I can remember them now!"
Maeve hopped onto her stool and looked at the mural she called "The Homeless Gang". "I lived on the streets during the Great Depression! With these men! I can't remember their names but I must've known them well enough!"
"And this!" She pointed to painting of the female in armor carrying the red flag. "I was a general of a royal army!" She laughed at the idea of her being a general or being Royalty.
"And this!" She said waving her hand at the Asian family in the garden above her head. "I lived in either China or Japan, I really don't remember, but I had a family and my brother and Dad went off to war and this was us spending our last day together!"
"And this!" She exclaimed again as she jumped onto her table and ran back to the first mural of her and the boy dancing. "That was me when Jack first-" Maeve cut off and stared at the painting. "That was Jack..." She muttered.
Maeve half-laughed and pointed at the painting. "It was Jack! He- he was alive! he had a family! He had parents and- and a sister! He saved her from a frozen lake! Then I died telling her to run for help instead of staying! And I... And I.."
Maeve sat down on the table smiling in disbelief. "I knew him." She finished looking at the box in her hand.
Baby tooth flew up hesitantly, just in case Maeve flipped out again. She squeaked asking if she was alright. Maeve looked up smiling. "I feel great." She hopping up on to her feet. Baby Tooth tilted her head. Not even a few minutes ago Maeve was sobbing in her sleep, now she was jumping around like a mad woman over her memories.
"Maeve?" Jamie's tired voice asked. "Ah!" She yelped quietly shoving the case into baby tooth's hands. "Hide!" She breathed while picking up a random book from her stack and sat on her stool while opening it to the ending.
Baby tooth squeaked at Maeve saying she didn't have to hide because her dad couldn't see her but Maeve was panicking to much to listen. Daughter Nature grabbed the tooth fairy and chucked her into her waist bin before looking like she was reading.
"Maeve? Honey, It's one in the morning." Jamie said walking in wearing his pajamas. "Sorry." She said sheepishly closing the book. "I -uh- just realized the -uh- secret plot to the story and I -uh- got overexcited."
Jamie shook his head. "Come on, then. 17 or not you still have a bed time." Maeve set her book down and walked over to the door where Jamie ruffled her hair.
"Night, kiddo." Jamie said heading to his and Victoria's bedroom. "Night." Maeve said heading into her own room.
"What was she getting excited about now?" Victoria asked yawning. "She said its about that book she just finished." Jamie answered getting back into bed.
He stared at the ceiling for a moment. "Vic... Do you think Maeve knows?" He asked. "About what?" She asked turning over to look at her husband. "That hooded woman that brought her here 17 years ago. She's been gone most of the time... Doesn't really sleep at all anymore... Barely talks to any of us either." Jamie said running his hands through his chocolate brown hair. "I'm just worried about her..."
"Don't worry about her Jamie." Victoria said yawning. "She's probably just going through a phase that's all."
He wasn't sure it was just a phase with Maeve. but Victoria new more about teenage girls than he's ever known. "Yeah... maybe your right." Jamie said rolling over onto his side.
After a few minutes he could hear Victoria's breathing slow signaling she was asleep. He kept quiet hoping not to wake her.
It's hard to believe Maeve will be 18. He remembered when she was just 8 years old helping him paint the living room then kidnaping the paint buckets and painting all over the kitchen exclaiming "look daddy! I'm an artist!". Felt like yesterday much less 10 years ago.
He sighed and closed his eyes. Guess Jamie just couldn't cope with the idea his little girl was growing up.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"Maeve." Jack said quietly while poking her shoulder. "Maeve get up. I need your help back at the Pole. The other guardians are going crazy. Maeve!"
Daughter Nature groaned and rolled over in her sleep, covering her head with her pillow. "5 minutes." She mumbled.
The spirit of Winter counted to 5 in his head before jabbing Maeve in the hip. He saw some kid to it to one of their friends. think they called it a "taser" or something like that. What ever it was called, it worked. Maeve let out a high-pitched squeal and fell off the side of her bed.
Jack snorted and burst out laughing while Maeve scrambled up from the floor, her cheeks burning.
"Jerk." She snapped while hitting him in the face with her pillow. "Actually it's "Jack". I think you may have hit your head to hard." Jack kidded earning himself another hit in the head.
Jumping off the bed, He grabbed Maeve by the arms before she could hit him again and pinned her against the wall so she couldn't swing the pillow at him.
"Cheater." She said not bothering to escape his grip. "Can a guy not even joke around with his girlfriend without getting called names?" He asked smirking.
Maeve's cheeks burned bright pink. Sure, Jack had kissed her, but she hadn't actually thought about being in an actual relationship or him calling her his girlfriend.
Her thoughts where cut off by Jack smashing his lips onto hers. Maeve's cheeks turned redder. She slipped her hands out of his grip and rapped them around his neck while closing her eyes.
The winter spirit kept Maeve pinned to the wall through the kiss. Neither of them minded the fact the whole Bennett family was on the same hallway and could possibly hear them.
Daughter Nature only stopped at a cold, tickling feeling on her back. She pulled away from Jack and looked behind her. "Jack?" She asked fighting not to burst out laughing. "Hum?" He responded while kissing her cheek. "Did you just freeze over my wall?"
The winter spirits eyes shot open and his cheeks flushed deeply. Sure enough, still spreading from his hands was the ice he was famous for. By the time he removed his hands, he had already frozen over half a side of Maeve's hand-painted bedroom.
"Uh...I... sorry..." He mumbled while looked at the floor.
Maeve chuckled. And he said she turned red when she was embarrassed. Daughter Nature lifted his face up with her finger under his chin and kissed his noes. "Have I ever told you your adorable when your embarrassed?" She teased.
Jack grinned and rested his forehead against hers while rapping his arms around her waist. "Copying me and stealing my job? Quiet the nerve you got there." He kidded.
Maeve chuckled and kissed him again. Guess She could get used to this girlfriend thing.
Baby tooth flew in between them and squeaked at the teens furiously. She squeaked at Maeve for chucking her into a trash bin and then at Jack who had forgotten the whole reason he had came to get her.
Jack laughed and Maeve's face turned redder. "Alright alright." He said waving a hand trying to calm down the tooth fairy. "We're going now." Baby tooth squeaked and nodded like she was saying: 'that's right.' And flew out the window.
"We better go." Jack said rapping an arm around Maeve's shoulders. "Yeah. I'd hate to get on that fairy's bad side." Maeve sniggered walking over to her closet and grabbing her coat.
"Oh and uh- by the way- just because Bunny was turned into a baby doesn't mean your off diaper duty." Jack added picking up his staff. Maeve crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow.
"Fine." She said walking to the window. "Just don't expect any kisses from me."
