"I'll do it!" Jack said boldly as he entered Pitch's office.
"Really? I'm a bit surprised Jack…" Pitch said and grinned playfully.
"I don't care…" Jack replied and eyed Pitch coldly like I'm-totally-gonna-kill-you look.
Pitch smirked at him. His smirk really pissed Jack off.
'After all this I'm totally gonna rip your face! Let's see if you could still smile!' Jack thought.
"Okay, here are the terms. I will pay all the hospital bills Emma needs only after you and Rapunzel gets married. Do we have a deal?" Pitch said as he slowly gave Jack the contract.
"Okay… deal." He said as he signed the contract. "So when's the wedding?" Jack asked.
"Maybe a week or two… depends…" Pitch shrugged his shoulders.
"I just want to know Pitch… Can you give me a reason why you're doing this to me?" Jack took a step forward.
Pitched laughed. "Well… I just want to make your life miserable… Just like what your father did to me!" Pitch shouted.
"You're not yet over that?! Move on?!" Jack shouted back and grabbed Pitch's collar.
"Move on? Move on?! Tell me Jack, do you actually know how moving on feels?! How could you possibly move on when you lost your very loved one! Do you know how it feels Jack? Do you!" Pitch shouted and made Jack take a few steps backward.
"Of course I do! I know what you feel Pitch! But mine's worse! My father died for someone else's life! And that life was your daughter's! You should be thankful to him! And you know what Pitch, I didn't even have the chance to say goodbye… It all happened so quickly… So now tell me Pitch! Do you know how that feels?!" Jack shouted and walked away. He slammed the door so hard.
It's been weeks since Tooth have confessed to Jack. They still noticed each other at school but it felt different. They felt awkward with each other. It was very hard for Tooth to accept the truth.
It was also very hard for Jack to do something he is against with. He also felt so uneasy when he's around with Tooth. Every time he's around her, he feels like he is suffocating. He still has a lot of secrets unrevealed.
Knock knock…
"I'll get it!" Tooth shouted from her room and ran quickly at the stairs.
As Jack waited patiently and as he heard Tooth's fast yet soft steps, his heart started to beat triple times and his sweaty hands started to shake.
Tooth fixed her hair and wiped her clothes before opening the door.
Tooth slowly opened the door. Her eyes grew larger… she didn't recognize him.
She felt like standing in front of a stranger who had snowy white hair and crystal clear blue eyes.
"Tooth… It's me… Jack…" Jack started and made a sly smile.
"J-Jack? Wh-what happened?" Tooth asked as she stared at him that almost made Jack melt.
"Well don't be shocked… this is actually the real color of my hair and eyes. I just dyed it and also put on contact lenses… Coz you know, I don't want to always be the center of attraction. I know it's weird but all of the boys in our family are born with white hair…" Jack explained.
"Oh… would you like to talk about it inside?" Tooth asked.
"Oh no. I'll just make this quick…" Jack replied.
"I just want to tell you that I'm really gonna do it. I'll marry her in a week." Jack said and looked away.
"Well I guess there's nothing I can do to stop it, right?" Tooth tried her best to make a fake smile just to cover the pain deep inside.
"Is that all why you're here?" Tooth continued.
"Uuummm… another thing… "Jack started nervously.
He instantly grabbed her hand and hugged her tightly.
Tooth's eyes grew bigger. She was shocked of the sudden move that made an electric shock in her heart.
"I love you too Tooth…" Jack whispered to her and he slowly let go of her.
Tooth was speechless.
"I gotta go… bye…" Jack left without Tooth even said a word.
Tooth froze as she heard those three little yet very meaningful words. She felt so confused. She doesn't know if she must feel happy or sad. She felt so lost.
She froze like an ice. And as she thought of Jack, she was slowly melting. Tears began to escape from Tooth's sparkling lilac eyes and ran slowly through her cheeks. She felt the cold breeze lingers on her skin. And it reminded her of Jack.
The wind made her shiver. Then suddenly she felt numb. She knelt down and hugged herself.
"Jack, quit playing with my feelings… I don't know what to do…" She whispered to herself and cried.
"Rapunzel! My flower, dear!" Gothel called.
"Yes mother?" Rapunzel said as she got out from her room.
"The marriage will happen in a week! Aren't you excited?" Gothel asked.
"Really? Well, I am mother…" Rapunzel replied as she looked away.
"You know why I wanted this to happen?" Gothel asked as she took Rapunzel's hands.
Rapunzel just looked at her silently.
"I'm just looking up for you. I trust Jack and his family that they will take care of you when I'm gone. Remember, mother knows best." Gothel said.
"Okay mom." Rapunzel replied.
"Now go to your room while I prepare our food." Gothel said and Rapunzel nodded.
'My plan is now working….' Gothel thought and made a smirk.
Hey Emma!
I know I haven't written, texted, and called you for a while and I'm so sorry. I hope you're not mad at me or anything. I just want you to know that I had a lot of problems since the incident happened. There is no night or day that I haven't thought about you. I really miss you Em. Don't worry, I'll be back after I set things right. I just wish that everything will be normal again sooner. By the way, do your injuries still hurt? I hope not… Get well soon Em. I love you.
Jack.
I know it's short... sorry for that... but I'll TRY to update faster... Thanks again guys!
