Jack and Clarice finished dancing, and fell into the snow, laughing.
"So, Jack. How long have you been following me?" Clarice asked.
"Like 2 days, I came into town to visit the children. They always want to play in the snow with me. What can I say? I'm a fun guy. Heh." Jack said.
"Well, why do you have such an interest in me? I'm uninteresting." She asked, smiling at him.
"Well, I saw you leave school, and you caught my eye. As soon as I saw you, I fell in love. Your eyes are gorgeous, your hair is pretty, everything about you. I love." Jack said, shyly.
"Aww.. thank you.." She said.
They both got lost in each others eyes.. when suddenly they were cut off by a scream, "CLARICE!" Screamed her mother.
Clarice looked up quickly with a gasp of breath. "Oh no.." Clarice said. "That's your mother isn't it?" Jack said, sadly.
"Yes.. I.. I must go Jack." She said and got up quickly.
"Can we meet here tomorrow?" Jack asked.
"Yes, I'll be here tomorrow morning. Bye Jack!" She said.
"Bye lovely..." he said.
He saw Clarice run off towards her house. "Ahh.. she's so lovely." He said.
He then turned around to go home, but was stopped by pitch.
"Ah, Jack. How are you?" Pitch smirked.
"Terrible, now that your Here.." Jack said angrily.
"The feeling is mutual my friend. So, who's that lovely lady over there?" Pitch said.
"What's it matter to you?" Jack said as he pushed pitch aside.
"Oh, I was simply wondering. It seems like she means alot to you, dear Jack."
Jack stopped, and turned around towards pitch. "Do. Not. Touch. Her." He said angrily.
"As you wish, Jack. I won't bother her." Pitch said with his fingers crossed behind his back.
"Good. See you." Jack said and flew away.
Pitch laughed and said, "yes.. see you indeed."
Pitch then went into town, and tried to find Clarice's house, but instead found her walking home. "I'll just follow her until I get to her house." Pitch said.
Pitch then tried scaring Clarice with shadows. Clarice looked around, and saw shadows. She looked frightend, and she ran home. Pitch followed her to he house. The house was dark when she came home. She was greeted by her younger brother Max.
"Hey max. Sorry i came home late. I bet moms pretty pissed off, isn't she?" Clarice said.
"Yeah. I'm going to bed. Good night Clarice." Max said sleeply.
"Perfect," said pitch, "I can give him nightmares." Pitch followed max to his room, and waited for him to go to sleep. As max snoozed away, pitch was dreaming up a nightmare just for max. A nightmare appeared and it destroyed max' s good dreams. Max tossed and turned in bed, trying to get rid of the nightmare pitch made. Pitched laughed, and disappeared into the darkness.
