Friday and Saturday it was just completely out of my mind so im sorry! but im updating now! yay! and ill be updating in four days so on the eighteenth to make sure im on schedule! then, omd, ill update on the twenty fifth! CHRISTMAS! what a lucky coincidence! ha!

so, before i begin, i'd like to thank everyone who's followed and favourited! thankyou so much!

and now, the story. (in jack's pov, as it shall always be!)

Why didn't my family like Tooth? They'd met her before and always acted kind towards her! Was there something they saw that I didn't?

The day after I proposed, I got that thought out of my head and took a cab to go and meet Tooth as a surprise! It was Friday so surely she'd be working at her office (she was the accountant for a man who designs computers.)

I walked into the tall tall building, flowers behind my back, and was met by a woman at the front desk.

"I'm here to have a brief talk with the accountant of ...Florin de Winchstead?" I said once I reached the woman at the greeting desk.

"What is your relationship status with her sir?" She said robotically.

"I'm her fiancée."

"Go on up."

"Thanks."

I then hurried into the elevator and went all the way up to floor 100, the top floor.

When I walked out, Tooth wasn't there at her desk like she should've been. There was no one there.

It was quiet apart from the constant moaning noises I could hear coming from Florin de Winchstead's office.

I walked towards the door and knocked, sort of knowing what answer I was about to receive.

The door opened rather wide considering what this man was doing. I would've wanted to hide all the evidence of what took place.

What stood before me was a poor excuse for a man with his tie wonky and almost undone, his shirt untucked, lipstick round his face and his breath ragged.

I looked behind this man to see my bride perched on the table in the middle of the room. Her dress lay on the floor and what she was currently wearing was some sort of expensive looking lingerie. I then noticed a Victoria's Secret bag torn in the corner of the room which meant she got changed infront of him. Her lipstick was smeared too and her colourful hair knotty and untidy.

"Tooth, what the hell?"

"Oh, Jack!" She jumped off the table and walked towards me, putting her arms around this Florin dude's waist, "I was going to tell you tomorrow, I've decided to break off our engagement!"

"What?!" I breathed, "We just got engaged yesterday!"

"I know! I just...had second thoughts the minute I got home!"

"Okay well, can I have the ring back?"

"See, that's the thing...I sort of sold it online for like...a million bucks...thanks I guess? Goodbye!"

Then, the door was slammed in my face and I could once again hear moaning coming from the door.

I guess she was a tramp.

I trudged down the hundred flights of stairs, not being bothered to take the elevator and when I got to the bottom it hit me that she had just said yes for the ring. I slammed the door leading to the stairs on my way out and walked past the accountant angrily.

"Are they going at it again?" She asked.

"What do you mean again?"

"Oh honey..." She finally showed some form of emotion, "She always has these crazy make out sessions with her boss like her life depends on it."

"Excuse me?"

"You're the fourth fiancée this year that she's tricked!"

"What do you mean fourth? I've been dating her for five years!"

"Well then she's been cheating big time!

"Thanks for the enlightenment!"

Then I stomped out of the building.

Florin is a dick. I remember thinking.

I walked back to my apartment, hands in my pockets and pondered over what had just happened.

The more I thought about it, the more I was glad that she broke off the engagement. I mean, sure she could've been nicer and NOT have sold the ring before she told me but hey, saves me from a lifetime with her. The more I thought, the more I realized my family was right! She was bad news!

Speaking of my family, I decided I wanted to go and see them.

So, I packed a rucksack with a few weeks worth of clothes and took a cab to the Grand Central Station.

I booked a train to Vermont (where my family lives) and then took a seat on the actual train.

I sat there for a few minutes, waiting for it to leave, watching everyone in this compartment sit with their friends, laughing and chatting away. I was the only one in there sitting alone.

Then a girl ran in, just as the train started, and tripped over onto my lap.

"Oh my goodness!" She yelled as she stood back up, "I'm so sorry about that! I swear it wasn't on purpose! I'm sorry! I-"

"It's okay.." I interrupted.

"No really! I'm just having a bad day and I'm really sorry! The train starting just took me by surprise, I'll just go now.."

She started looking around for somewhere to sit and when she saw that everywhere was full, she kind of just stood there, awkwardly, looking around.

"Would you like to sit here?" I asked her, offering her the seat infront of me.

"Is that okay?"

"Sure it is!"

"Thank you!" She said, then plonked down onto the seat.

Only then did I take in what she looked like. She was thin and had pale skin but even paler hair up in a side plait. She wore a thin light blue t-shirt and sweatpants (in winter) and was breathing heavily.

"You look like you just ran a mile!" I said.

"Well, more like two!" She said.

"Go on."

"Okay, so, um.., well, I know I look like some random skimpy girl from the street or something-"

"No you don't!"

"Thanks, but anyway, I was getting a cab to get to the grand central station so I can go to see my family over Christmas up in Vermont-"

"That's where my family lives!"

"Oh cool- so, I had a coat on and my stuff was in the back, luckily my ticket was in my pocket because the cab driver spun into an alley way full of thugs and took all my stuff! Like, everything! My suitcase, my coat! They left me with these though!"

She pointed down at her clothes.

"But I had no money 'cause they took my purse (which my train ticket was NOT in thankfully) and I couldn't call anyone 'cause obviously my phone was taken too so I had to leg it all the way to the station and now, I don't have an apartment, or any clothes or anything except my family up in Vermont and I don't even know how I'm gonna get to them with all the snow 'cause it's not like I have some sort of epic boots on or something!"

"Sounds like you've had quite a day!" I chuckled.

"This is not funny!" She wailed, "I'm lucky I was even aloud on the train wearing practically nothing and with no belongings! Vermont is all I have and- and-"

Suddenly she broke down crying, head in her arms, shoulders shaking.

"Hey.." I said awkwardly, "It's um...it's okay! If it makes you feel any better, today I just found out my fiancée who I proposed to yesterday has been cheating on me for five years with her work boss AND she sold the ring I bought her!"

For some odd reason, her wailing turned into giggling as she looked up at me.

"Hahaha!" She smiled. There and then, I decided that I liked her smile.

"I mean," She corrected herself, "I am SO sorry!"

"Aaah don't worry about it..at least I didn't get all my stuff stolen by a taxi driver.."

"No need to boast!" She joked.

"Ha! Looks like we've both had a pretty rough day huh?"

"Huh.."

"Say, what's your name?" I asked.

"Elsa Aaron. You?"

"Jack Frost."

"Your kidding right? Jack Frost?"

"My parents must have been playing some hilarious joke or something I guess!"

"Yeah..hey, you wouldn't know anywhere I could stay perhaps, at least, until I can get back up to my family?"

"I can take you back to my place, get you sorted out and then drive you to your family if you'd like that!"

"You would do that?!" She smiled again, "Oh my goodness! Thank you so much!"

We had a pretty pleasant conversation for the rest of the six hour train ride.

Well, technically two hours OF the six hour train ride. Elsa fell asleep after a while with her head pressed against the window.

When we arrived in Vermont, there were at least two feet of snow on the ground and I wasn't sure if Elsa was going to be able to handle the cold in just a shirt and sweats.

"Elsa?" I prodded her sleeping head.

"Hmmm?" She stirred.

"We're here!"

"That's great!" She yawned., "Let's go-Oh my sweet goodness..."

She took a look at the snow outside and shivered subconsciously.

"Hey, take my coat!" I said, handing her my thick trench coat.

"Thanks.." She said looking away.

"I have a hoodie anyway."

Then I grabbed my stuff, and we walked out.

There's chapter two! AAAAHHH! Did you like it?

Please let me know what you think in a review! It would mean a LOT!

Once again, I'm so sorry about the three days extra wait! I completely forgot! but i hope the thousand word difference between this chapter and the last makes up for it! :)

bye!
