Jack's POV*
"Why aren't you with Elsa, Jack?" asked Tooth when she saw me sitting near the window at North's place. I had been here for a couple hours, just sitting by the window, and watching the snow come down. It was just a week away from Christmas and North was super busy with the Elves in the Toy Shop today. Sandy and Bunny were with him, trying to help out as much as they could.
When I saw her, I just shrugged my shoulders and looked back out the window.
"I don't know." I said gloomily, leaning my head against it.
"Don't lie to me Jack." She said, hand on her hips, her little tooth fairies that flew around her did the same.
"I'm not lying." I said. Well, I really was lying, but I just didn't want anyone bothering me. All I wanted was to be left alone.
Tooth stood near me for a minute just observing me before she came and sat down next to me with the little tooth fairies all flying down to sit on her lap.
"Did something happen between you and Elsa?" She asked, patting my hand. I nodded my head.
"Do you mind telling me what happened?" She asked. I looked out the window once more before turning to look at her and began explaining the whole story. She quietly listened to me as I went on about what happened. Every now and then, my voice would start breaking, but it took everything in me not to cry. Once I was done, she didn't say anything.. just like what Manny did.
We sat in silence for a while before she finally spoke.
"You really do love Elsa, don't you?" She asked me with a sad expression on her face. I nodded my head, leaning against the frozen window once again. I could feel tears starting to form in my eyes, so I wiped them away with the back of my hand.
"I really do Tooth. I love Elsa more than anything. But, what if I am wrong about Prince Dylan? What if he actually isn't a bad guy? What if it's just my nerves that are causing me to get bad vibes from him? If he's not a bad person, then I think he should be with Elsa."
Tooth looked at me with wide eyes.
"Why would you ever say that Jack?" She asked me, still in shock at what I said.
I shrugged my shoulders again. "I just think it's for the best. Besides, he's mortal, just like her. I'm not. They can both grow old and spend the rest of their lives together. I am immortal! I will outlive Elsa, and I don't exactly think I can bear watching her slip away right in front of me. I do not want to lose anyone I love anymore!" I cried out, my voice beginning to break again. I stood up from near the window and began walking away, tears starting to fall down my face.
"Jack," I heard Tooth say behind me," When you first met Elsa, what was it that made you fall in love with her?"
I looked down at my feet and sighed. I then turned around to look back at her, not bothering to wipe my tears away this time. "It was her eyes. She had, well, still has, the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen on anyone, and.. when I first looked into them.. it was like, I don't know, like that we were both meant for each other."
"And do you really want to give her up just because you think she's better off with someone else, and not you?"
I nodded my head. "Yes." I said sadly.
"Oh, Jack." She said, giggling as she flew back up and towards me. I looked at her funny.
"What was so funny?" I thought to myself.
"Let me tell you something." She said as she got in front of me. "You know, when me and Bunny first got together, he told me that he had actually been afraid to even be with me. You want to know why?"
I nodded my head.
"Because, he thought I was better off with you, and not him." She said to me, smiling.
My eyes got wide. "What?!" I shouted in surprise.
"Yup!" She chuckled. "He thought it would be better for me to be with you."
"Why?" I asked still in complete shock at what she just told me.
"He thought we wouldn't work out from where we're so different. He's a Pooka, which is a philosophical warrior rabbit, as you can tell, and I'm part human and part hummingbird hybrid. He considered me being with you because from where I'm half of what you are; a human.
"Wow, he actually really told you that? Wait, he's a Pooka? Are you sure he's not a just a huge kangaroo?" I said, smirking. Tooth laughed at that.
"Anyway," she said, waving her hand, signaling that she was going to continue, "When he first told me that, I was actually sad because I thought he didn't want to be with me. But, he told me he really did and he was in love with me, he had always been in love with me ever since we first met each other and when we both became Guardians. He just thought that from where we're both completely different, we shouldn't be together. And, I'll also tell you this; He's also just a tiny bit jealous of you."
My eyes got even bigger 'till I thought they were going to pop out of their sockets.
"He is?" I asked.
"Yes. He's jealous because you're a human, and he told me that he wished he could somehow be human, at least part human, because that way, he could be with me."
"And what did you tell him?" I asked, wanting to know more.
"I told him "So what if we're both different? The only thing that matters is that we both love each other! And, I don't love or want to be with Jack. I love him like as if he were my brother, and the only one who I really love and want to be with, is you Bunny!" "
"And what happened after that?" I asked.
"We got together. I really do love him Jack, and he make me happy, and I am just so happy that we're both together." She said, blushing. "That's all that really matters Jack. Who cares if you're immortal and Elsa's not? The only thing that really matters is how much you both really do love each other. While you're both together, make each and every day count." She said, putting a hand on my shoulder.
"Go tell Elsa you love her, and, if Prince Dylan is who you think he is, then I trust you to put a stop to him" She said with a smile.
"Thank you Tooth." I said, slowly starting to smile. I then all of a sudden got really excited. Tooth had helped me get pumped up with excitement. "I-I have to go tell Elsa!" I practically cried out with joy, but then my joy washed away suddenly and I stopped smiling.
"What wrong Jack?" Tooth asked.
"What if she doesn't want to see me?" I said.
"I'm sure she really wants to see you Jack. I really don't think Elsa could stay mad at you for so long. Go be with her."
I looked up at Tooth. "Thank you." I said to her.
"No problem Jack. We'll always be here for you whenever you need us."
I began to reach in the pocket of my sweater for my snow globe but stopped when we both heard what sounded like a swishing noise in the Toy Shop just outside of North's office. There was silence for about a minute, then a rumbling noise that began to get louder and grow closer as it got near us. The door suddenly burst open and in came running North, holding what looked like a scroll in his giant hand, and with Sandy, Bunny, and some elves running up behind him.
"Jack! You have a letter from the Queen!" North said, practically shoving it towards me. My heart began beating faster in my chest, and I quickly took the letter from him and unrolled it so I could read its contents. It was from Elsa! And she wanted to see me once I got this letter! I grinned from ear to ear.
"What does it say mate?" Asked Bunny.
"She wants to see me!" I said with excitement. Tooth beamed with happiness and squealed. Sandy was jumping up and down with excitement as well. North pumped both fists in the air and shouted out something in Russian.
"Well then what are you waiting for?!" Shouted North "Go see her Jack!" I nodded my head and quickly took out my snow globe and threw it out in front of me. The portal opened up in front of me, I almost ran into it before stopping and turning back around to face the Guardians.
"Thank you!" I said to them before turning back around and running into the portal.
