Veryberry96: Thanks! Yeah, I thought it was a bit witty, so I added it in! :D I love foxes, and I always thought of autumn myself when I thought of them... I'm strange... xD You're fangirling over my story? LAJSDHAKJDHADOEUWEB! *Cries* Yeah, I was getting tired of Evil and just want SophieXJack fluff now! :D ... It should be fun... :P Thank you! :)
THORina2245: You did? Aw, thank you! :) x
Black-Death-646: I'm sorry... I honestly did though! :O You did? Well, I'll take your word for it. :') I DID! (About time too!). Oh, thank goodness they did, anyway! :) Thanks! SO DO I! Whoo, go foxes! :) Yeah, I can't really imagine him being fazed, to be honest. He's just so tough, and yeah! :P I don't know. I feel I could have written it way better than I did. I feel like I rushed it! Yeah, I suppose it doesn't have to be complicated, though! :) Ha, yeah, I love writing them, so I thought I may as well add some small chapters in there. :P Thank you! :)
Dreamsand Caster 2: Ha, yeah! Evil sucks! And it shall be (I hope...)... xD THAT'S ACTUALLY A REALLY GOOD IDEA! iT GAVE ME SOME THOUGHTS ON HOW I SHOULD WRITE IT! THANK YOU! :') You did? Yay! Haha, I wasn't so sure, to be honest. :) I'm glad you liked it though! It makes me happy you did! :D I love foxes. ;D And yeah! I can't wait to write about Baby-Bennett! :P
Someonefromearth: Nah, I couldn't do that to ye! :P Yeah, I felt it was too quick too! But I'm super glad you liked it! :) Yeah, besides a few minor characters who aren't even mentioned, everybody's fine! :D *Celebrates* xD Neither, actually! But I like how you thought of them! (Well, not so much Twilight... *Not a fan of it*). xD I love the Hunger Games though! :D :D
Elizabeth: Whoa, long review! :P I don't think I'll be using the idea of their being another big bad guy because I REALLY don't want to drag out the story, you know? Aw, the Arctic fox thing would be so CUTE! Ha, and yeah. I guess the big fox would be. *OH and the Arctic fox can be like her sidekick animal!* *SO MANY DAMN FEELS RIGHT NOW!* Haha, yeah. I had ideas of Jack pranking Sophie somehow.. Maybe not Sera because she's more stricter. :P I still don't know why she'd be mad at him yet, though. Maybe the pranking idea? :P I'll add them to this! :D Yeah, I had this idea of them like walking together and the Dryads like trying to seperate them to get Jack on his own, and blah, blah, blah! :P I also had an idea of a Spring Spirit *male* who gets a crush on Sophie... etc. :P I'm not entirely sure where yet... I'll think of something. Maybe Bunnymund will make a warren underground for Sophie (Not expecting her to ask Jack to stay too!) :P Thanks for the ideas and the review. :D
JustPlainOldMe: Uh... Sorry! :O Ha, it wasn't really 'epic', it was all right. :P THANK YOU SO FREAKING MUCH! :) I was afraid ye'd all be like: Wow, this sucks, tata MOFO! :P Yeah, I'm looking forward to writing it. ;D Ha, yeah! I had this idea of the other Guardians coming to the house with them *Much to Jack's displeasure because he knows Sophie's father is waiting to talk to him*. Yeah, he'll be there. Especially because he doesn't like them being together! :P Haha, yeah! Ain't no Dryad going to get in the way of my ship! *Sorry, I just really ship them!*. I will try update the Nothing like us ASAP! :) Thanks for the review. :D
Ya I'm THAT chick: Thanks for the review. :P
Did you know that wars really tire you out? You didn't? Oh, well they do! I have never been so tired in all of my life! AND I'M A TEENAGE GIRL, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! I've stayed up all night just to stay on the internet and fangirl! But I wasn't going to get peace anytime soon! Why? Because everybody decided to accompany me home! Just my great luck! Poor Jack looked like he was going to throw up, he was so green. I guess the thought of having a talk with my father wasn't exactly lifting his spirits. To be honest, I think this talk would be quite amusing. I've never had a boyfriend over before, so my dad's never had to give anyone the talk before. It's different, though, with Jamie. When he brought Pippa back as his girlfriend, my dad congratulated him! Why couldn't I get a pat on the back from him? Man, father's are very confusing!
"The last time I was at your house was when you use my globe!" North called back to me. I grinned at the memory. I can't believe I was only three when that happened, and look how much all these people have changed my life. We were all sitting in the back of North's sleigh. Mund didn't look even remotely happy. He held tightly onto the seat looking like a deer in headlights.
Katherine kept on asking me questions about my house. "Is it big?" "Do you have anything protecting it-?" "Just a gate? We have a bear!" and so on. I was a bit shocked at the bear bit. Who has a bear guarding their homes? That was a bit over the top, if you ask me. But Guardians were odd anyway! And for the record, I can say that because I'm only a spirit! IN YOUR FACE GUARDIANS! MWHAHAHA!
Okay, sorry, back to reality!
"You don' still have that dog, do you?" Mund asked cautiously.
I chuckled. I don't know why they didn't like Abbey! She was adorable and fluffy... but– "No. She died a couple of years ago," I told him as Burgess drew closer. I couldn't wait to see my parents! At long last we'd be happy again without worrying about stupid Evil– BECAUSE HE'S TRAPPED FOREVER! HA! Man, that feels good to say– well, think, really. Oh, well.
After another twenty minutes we landed in front of my house. My parents, obviously noticing the big sleigh, ran out the door. When they saw me they pulled me into a bone crushing hug which I didn't mind at all. Strangely, my mother even gave Jack a hug. I guess she's happy we're both alive, then. (That's just a guess...). Her face fell when she noticed the others behind us. Her eyes grew large as she looked at each one of them.
"You're– you're the Easter Bunny, and Santa Claus... and..." she trailed off as she tried to guess what Toothiana was. I guess she doesn't exactly look like the Tooth Fairy.
"Toothiana, Queen of the fairies, and the Tooth Fairy," Tooth told her.
"This is Sandy, the sandman, Nightlight, Katherine and Mother Nature, Seraphina," I introduced them. "This is my mother, and that is my father."
"Nice to meet you, Mrs Bennett, and you too, Mr Bennett," Katherine said, stepping forward and shaking their hands. My mother and father looked so shocked I thought they might faint. I only now guessed that this might be too much for them to handle at once. All their children fantasies and legends stood right in front of them. You know, I thought with everything we've been through that this would seem completely normal. Obviously I was mistaken.
"Come on, let's go inside," I said to them. I led everybody back into the house. Everything to me felt new and fresh and I loved it.
Once we were inside, and everybody had found a place to sit in the living room, I began to explain to my parents what happened. Like me, they seemed to think that Evil being destroyed so easily was a little fishy. I tried hard not to dwell on that thought, though, as it made me a hell lot nervous. They were happy, overall, that everybody was okay. They thought me controlling foxes was pretty awesome. Well, they actually said: 'Oh, that's nice, dear', but for them, that means awesome, or something close to it anyway.
After about an hour of my parents getting to know everybody, my father gave an awkward cough. I could see how nervous Jack was getting. I couldn't resist the urge to smile. I mean, of all the things to make Jack nervous, this was it. A talk with my father. His face was paler than usual, and he kept wiping his hands on his pants.
"Jack, could we talk in the kitchen?" my father spoke up.
All eyes turned to Jack and his face flushed. I think Bunnymund caught onto what my father wanted to talk to Jack about. He stood up. "I reckon I shou' join you," he said. Jack's eyes narrowed towards him. Mund smirked at Jack. I wanted to burst into a fit of giggles, but I didn't as I knew that would probably annoy Jack.
Reluctantly, Jack followed my father and Mund out into the kitchen.
Jack's POV:
I was not at all okay with this. I can't believe Mund wanted to join us! AND SOPHIE JUST LET HIM! Do you understand how nervous I was. I wondered what he actually wanted to talk about with me... and Mund too. Honestly, what could they say to me? WE'VE JUST GOT BACK FROM A WAR AND THEY WANT TO TALK TO ME! That was just madness! Oh, did I mention I was a tiny bit nervous? Well, I was!
I sat down at the table. I could see Sophie's father giving sideways looks to Mund. I guess it's not everyday you see a man-sized bunny up close. I avoided looking at either of them. This couldn't be any more awkward! Well, I suppose if someone came in running naked it could be... sorry. That's a little off topic.
"So..." Sophie's father began, breaking the horribly awkward silence between us. "I've never really done this before. "So, I guess I should start off by saying: I don't get this immortal thing, but you have to remember she's only just seventeen, even if she will live forever. I'd rather not have any grandchildren yet." My face went redder. Oh, god. I was not enjoying this at all, all ready!
"That won't happen!" I blurted out, alarmed.
I really wish I could turn invisible right now.
"Not on my watch, it won't," Mund said. I pursed my lips, glaring at him. Honestly, why was he here?
"And you also have to be good to her," Mr Bennett continued. "She hasn't exactly had a great childhood or teenage years. I don't know what she remembers, but when she remembers some stuff, it'll probably sadden her. I want your word that you'll be there for her."
"I will, sir," I promised.
"Uh... and..." Mr Bennett looked like he was thinking hard about what else to say to me. I realised he was just as uncomfortable as I was about this. Can I just say: good. At least I'm not the only one who hates this a lot. Mund, on the other hand, looked like he was enjoying this a lot.
"Please keep things PG," Mund suggested.
"What– are you insane?" I asked, shaking my head in annoyance. "PG? What the bloody hell is that suppose to mean?"
"No making out, no hugging for longer than ten seconds, no sneaking off together," Mund began to list.
"Oh, god," I muttered. "Yeah, yeah. I'll keep it all PG... when you're looking." Okay, I whispered the last part. I would have said out loud, but then I remembered Sophie's dad was sitting with us. I smirked at my witty whisper though, even if no one else heard it.
There was another long silence between us. "Well, I guess that's basically it, then," her dad said.
I couldn't of got out of the kitchen faster. Okay, no grandchildren; be good to her; keep PG. Well, to be fair, I've kind of been good about that list so far. When I entered the living room, I saw Sophie giggling. I had a feeling my face was red. Well, the talk went better than expected. But it was still a little uncomfortable. I have a feeling that if Mr Bennett thought of more stuff, it wouldn't take him long to whisk me away to give me another talk. I was just hoping he didn't think of anything else. It would save me so much embarrassment.
"Your face is pretty red," Sophie commented.
"Thanks," I replied. "I never would have thought it was at all."
"You have to tell me what they said to you later," she said.
"... Maybe," I simply said in reply. I smiled at her to show her I was messing. The only thing I've really broken on that list was the making out thing and the hugging longer than ten seconds– can we just talk about how insane that rule was? Mund really needs to chill! You'd swear I was a bad person or something the way he treats me, sometimes. "And I was thinking that after you come back from your duties of killing plants that maybe we could finally go... well, on that first date thing you talked about."
"Really?" she asked startled. I nodded and she smiled. "Yeah, I'd love that."
I was about to kiss her when I remembered we were surrounded by a bunch of people. I smiled. I'd get that kiss later.
Obviously these aren't meant to be long as they're not even real chapters. More like... additions. xD :)
