VeryBerry96: Don't worry; it's not over for them yet. :3 ... Ya, I know it was long but I felt like I was on a roll and I just couldn't stop. xD Ya, splitting them up wouldn't of been very good. I didn't make it OTT? OH MY GOSH! Yay! I was like so worried I may have done that. I mean, I wasn't going to stay on the subject of depression for too long, I just wanted to show what her life was like before Jack came back to visit. Hm, I don't think it does. I think she just kept as a reminder that she is stronger than she believed she was. I don't know.. XD Don't worry, I'm the exact same when reading too... :3 :P (*Reply to last chapter now*): Don't panic, you'll get your fluff soon! :P I have the story up... I wrote it last night at like... god knows how early in the morning. But anyway, if you want to check it out, that'd be great (it's the JackXSophie one...) XD And, no, no. I'm not someone who'll judge if you haven't read something. Some people just aren't into stuff like Harry Potter and that's cool. :)
DreamSand Caster 2: Ha, I don't know. I just do sometimes... :P Ya... Sorry about the depressing bits... xD They're not all depressing... I mean, one was where Jack brought her home and when she kissed him.. :') No, no. Not forever. Always. (See what I did there?) XD (*reply to last chapter*): Do them both? Ya, I was thinking about it. Right now I have the first chapter of the SophieXJack one up... It's not good because I'm terrible with first chapters.. :P And the power you'll learn soon enough.. xD
Wolf and MR lover: Ya... well... It is a romance fanfic so she can't stay in that zone forever... XD
Elizabeth: Hey, just remember that this isn't over and there's still plenty of possibilities.. :) Ha, I like the idea of her punishing Jack if ever him and Sophie got into a fight; that would be so funny... XD And being there watching Sophie since childhood? What an amazing idea. I swear, it's comments like these that help me get over my writers block. Ya, I guess she would despise him for that reason. BEcause going out with her (sort of) made Sophie sad as she knew she'd have to move on someday. Oh god, ya. Because for all we know (which I do) Sophie might have wanted to have a family and now.. with things with Jack... it's all so complicated. Whoa. Okay, your comment blew my mind (in a good way) more than it should of... :O :) Thanks for the review... :) I didn't exactly answer any questions, but... I hope this reply was satisfactory anyway. :P
thegreatfairy: Aw, you like it? Thank you so much. :) :)(*reply to previous chapter*): I know right? Ha, thank you! I'm glad you liked the chapter. :)
someonefromearth: My chapters inspire you to write- what? Are you insane!? Oh my gosh! :3 Ha, I am glad they do so though. :) Ya, I realise that every time AFTER I update which pisses myself off. I mean, I wrote here instead of hear in one bit and- gah! You're right. Whatever. :P I've been fixing the previous chapters lately, so I'll be getting to these ones soon. :) and thank you! OH MY GOD! TWO DAYS! I AM DYING! :')
Avengers-girl-assemble: Ha, thank you! :) I'm glad you think so. :D
Black-death-646: Ha, I'm 90% sure it may be revealed in this chapter. I'll just write and see how it goes. XD Ya, because I don't want him to seem pushy. Plus, when she was mortal he realised that they wouldn't have long together so of course he tried to rush things. But now he knows they actually have forever so he feels he can relax and take it slow now. :) Ya, Evil is just pure... evil... xD You would? :O I have the first chapter of the JackXSophie one up already. Put it up last night.. and blah. It's not great as I really suck at first chapters.. xD All of the reviews I get keep me motivated. :) I wasn't feeling well either.. :O I had a bloody headache.. -_- Ha, thank you! :D
JustPlainOldMe: Again, no problem. :) I love replying to reviews. :P Ya, it kind of does, doesn't it? :) And ya. She really needed to get her memories back.. XD Ya, I apologise about that... :O I know? I suspect her brain is plotting against her secretly! XD Ya, I don't like too much seriousness as it gets boring and sad and blah! GO HUMOUR! :P Yay, kudos! :D :P Hope this is soon enough! XD AND I KNOW! I WAS SO SHOCKED WHEN I DID! THANK YOU! XD
Leslie: No problem, I enjoyed writing it. :) Don't worry... I don't THINK that this chapter will be focused on Evil as much. You'd seriously get obsessed with this? THIS? This story is pile high in stupidity and drama! xD I did it? Oh gosh, no. :L I literally have no idea what I'm doing half the time, I just type whatever I feel is right (and most of the time it's usually wrong, but oh well!). Your review was NOT boring. :) I absolutely adore reviews. :)
Guest: Ya, Sophie states the OBVIOUS sometimes... xD haha.. :P
Elizabeth: Hm... something like that anyway... :) Thanks for the review... xD *literally only saw it as I was about to update.. :O*
THORina2254: Really? Ya, I might do both... :D
Okay... Ya. xD Hope ye (why do I type this? I know it's you... but dang my bloody Irishness... and we also say like in basically every sentence...XD)like this chapter. I honestly try; so please do review. :)
Ya, as I thought, Jamie wasn't exactly happy to be woken. His eyes were barely open as he answered the door and his hair was an absolute mess! I had to suppress the urge to laugh as I looked at him. A noise escaped Jack's lips which he quickly turned into an awkward cough. Gold streams entered the second story window; I guessed it was Pippa's dreams. When Jamie saw who it was, his expression turned to shock and a little bit worried. I guess waking someone up early in the morning does make people think something bad happened.
"Morning," I exclaimed happily, pushing past him into the hallway.
"Shush, Pippa's asleep," he reminded me. I gave him an apologetic look which frankly I didn't really mean. I mean, seriously, what's the harm in getting up early anyway? It's a beautiful day! ... And I was beginning to feel a little tired. I think all the adrenaline I had was slowly rushing out of me. I hated being tired- and when was the last time I slept properly anyway? "Why are you here?" he moaned, gesturing to me and Jack to go into the kitchen. Jack and I obliged.
"Can't I visit family?" I asked.
"Not when it's... what time is it? Twenty past seven in the morning," he told me. I pouted. Oh wait till I told him what happened. I bet he'd be so happy I visited now. Was I trying to make Jamie feel bad for not being happy about my company? Maybe... But still. I haven't talked to him in a while so I thought he might be at least a little happy to see me. Well, I guess I was wrong then!
"Well, I have something to tell you," I said.
I explained to him about what happened and how Jack and I were taking by Seraphina to Evil's home. I told him how I was an autumn spirit with a lot more powers than I thought I had. And it was my unknown power that had got us out alive. Jamie seemed to become more awake and shocked as the story progressed. When I was done he looked like he couldn't believe what he was hearing. Luckily, for once he didn't seem to blame Jack for what had happened (because, honestly, it was nobody else's fault but my own). Oh, and then I told him I got my memory back. This seemed to make him at least a little happy.
"So, what do you remember?" He asked as I was finished. Wow, Jamie, I told you I was captured and almost killed and this is what you ask? You seriously have your priorities in order (and please, note that I am being sarcastic here).
"Uh... just... small things right now," I told him. I didn't feel comfortable about telling him I remembered I was depressed, or that my friend had committed suicide. And of course I wasn't going to tell him I remembered that I kissed Jack. I didn't plan on talking about that to anyone, actually.
"It's something, though," he said, a smile playing on his lips.
"Ya, and more will come back to her later," Jack explained. "When I got my memory I only remembered my death... But I remember a little more now. It will all come back eventually."
Was it me or was Jack oddly happy despite everything that's happened? Perhaps it was because I told him I do like him. I wondered was that a good idea... I mean, we have forever to worry about feelings. I feel with Jack and I... everything seems rushed. I don't want to rush anything, I want everything to be perfect. I can't imagine we'd ever get that though until Evil was captured. Why did bad things always stand in the way of good things? I wasn't aware that I was staring at Jack until Jamie gave a very loud cough to bring me back to reality.
Jack shrugged his shoulders at Jamie who had arched an eyebrow and looked between us both. My face went bright red. Why do I stare when I think? It was one of my many flaws, to be honest. I wish I had the cloak of Invisibility right now just so I could disappear until my embarrassment died down- which would be a very long time from now 'cause I know once we leave here Jack will go back to his cockiness and exclaim that he's amazing looking and that I shouldn't stare and blah, blah, blah. Sometimes I wonder how I like someone so cocky and immature- and then I remember I'm not so mature myself. Still, his cockiness could be irritating, but with Jack you just had to laugh it off. He never truly means it... I think.
"Sorry, I was just... uh, thinking- and ya. Sorry," I said. Ugh, this was just absolutely mortifying! I scratched the back of my neck awkwardly and looked down to the ground. Why am I so socially awkward? Seriously, it's another one of my flaws! "Anyway, what were you saying?"
"... I can't remember," Jamie admitted. He still gave me a suspicious look. He knew since after I had died that Jack and I weren't dating or whatever it was we were doing before I died. But now, I could tell he was suspicious even though there was really nothing to be suspicious about. I mean, all that happened was that Jack knows I do have feelings for him, and that's it. That wasn't so bad, right?
By now it was after eight. "You know, I think I should go," I say awkwardly.
"We haven't been here that long-" Jack began.
"You can stay," I told him giving him an odd look. I mean, he didn't have to leave because I was. Sometimes I swear he forgets that Jamie's his friend too. I suppose ever since Jack told Jamie about us their friendship has been a little strained. "But, I'm leaving. See you, Jamie."
"Bye, Sophie... Jack, please go? I really want to go to sleep," Jamie said adding a smile at the end to show he didn't mean it in a rude way.
Jack smirked and nodded, following me out the door. I hopped off the ground and flew up (man, that is actually so awesome to say- I mean, not many people can actually say that, now can they?). Jack quickly caught up with me seeing as he's faster. I wish I could fly faster than him... To be fair, though, he has had over three hundred years of practice while I've only had about three months.
"What was that about inside there?" Jack asked as soon as we were level again.
"Oh, I really was just thinking," I tell him.
"About..?" he wonders.
"A bit of everything. Uh, but mostly about us, to be honest..." I looked away from him feeling embarrassed again.
"Is that a good or a bad thing?" he asked, placing two hands on his staff and twisting it around awkwardly. I realised that he wasn't very comfortable asking that; why though? Was he afraid the answer was bad? I mean, before I had my doubts, but not so much anymore. And honestly, before, how did I have the courage to kiss him? I can barely look at him without my cheeks reddening now. Why did I have to be so bad in these situations?
I realised with a pang that he was still waiting for an answer from me. Ugh, I bet now he thinks I actually had to think that through. He looked slightly worried. Why would he? He knows I like him!
"I was just thinking that now we don't have to rush things," I admit. "I mean... that's if you still want to be with me, that is."
"Of course I do... I just don't want to rush things anymore, either," he tells me. Well, that was a great relief! For a little while I was worried he didn't like me anymore. I was afraid because I'm now immortal that he'd lose interest as... we do have forever. "And I know because you just got your memories you're confused and I know how that feels. I feel like I confuse you."
"I think we confuse each other," I laughed nervously.
"Look, I've never had a girlfriend... I don't think I have anyway... And you're the first girl to kiss me," he admits even though I know it already. "I honestly don't know what to do. That's the only reason I'm confused."
I noticed the space between us. I didn't like it. I had the same urge I had the first time I kissed him. I wanted to kiss him. I wanted him to realise that he had no reason to be confused. I mean, it's just me, Sophie Bennett. I'm not exactly going to hate him if he messed up a little. And when it came to the topic of us he was always so polite... My head spun. I got a sudden flashback and wow; that was a very weird sensation! I think the thought of his politeness towards our relationship brought it on. Had he asked to kiss me before?
If he had, I hope he doesn't do it again. I just want him to kiss me without feeling the need to ask me first. He could even kiss me just to make me stop talking and I wouldn't mind. I'm hoping he'll make the move so I won't have to. I want whatever it was we had before.
"I don't know what to do either," I blabbed out. "I feel so stupid with everything I do lately. I want what we had before, and I wish I never pushed that away, but I couldn't remember anything and now I do. I remember so much now. I don't want you to feel confused because I really, really like- no. Jack, I love you. You've always been there for me and you're always so kind even though you can be really cocky sometimes. But, would it be stupid if I say you make me happy?"
"No, because I feel the exact same way," he muttered.
He scrunched up his face looking a little bit in thought. My heart was hammering against my chest. Did I really just say that to him? I'm sometimes amazed at my braveness.
I was staring down at the ground below us. Jack and I levitated over a meadow. The same place where I received my egg every year off of Mund-
I was cut off from my thoughts when a cool hand touched my face and Jack pressed his lips against mine.
I don't know. I'm not good at cuteness... SORRY! XD I tried! :P :) I hope ye check out my other JACKxSOPHIE story... Ye don't have to, but it would be awesome if ye did. It's called Nothing Like Us... Blah. xD One chapter up... Hope ye like it... xD And... REVIEW FOR MORE GUYS! XD :P
I can't believe I have 26 chapters up... I don't write long fanfictions, or finish them either, but I really enjoy this story and I don't want to let ye down either. :') Thanks for all the reviews guys! They really mean a lot to me. Blah! :)
