The is a sequel to Forgotten Memories.


Jamie stared at the snowflake in his hand. He had been taking the candy out of his pocket constantly to turn it around between his fingers. He still tried to remember where he had seen that teenager dressed as the Winter Prince. It had been a week now and it was driving him insane.

"You're supposed to eat it, you know?"

Startled, Jamie turned around. The speaker, surprisingly, looked just as startled as he did. Even more surprising, it was the very boy he had been thinking of. He dressed more casually now that Halloween was over, but he was still pale as snow and walking bare-footed. His breath caught in his throat. He knew that boy who looked like winter.

"Jack Frost."

A scene from long ago replayed in his mind as the boy's eyes widened in shock, unable to believe what was happening.

"That's my name. You said my name."

"It's not the first time I say your name, Jack."

"Jamie..."

Jack took half a step forward, hesitated, took a step back, hesitated some more. Jamie was still a little lost, trying to reassemble old memories rushing back to him all at once. But there was one thing he did remember and it was the last time they had spoken. He quickly crossed the distance between them, grabbing Jack's wrist just as the wind picked him up to carry him away. He tugged the Guardian back down. He knew if he let him leave now, he would never see his old friend again

"You're not flying off on me, are you?"

"Jamie..."

"I know, I know. It's what was best for me."

Ignoring how tense Jack was, he pulled the winter spirit in a hug. He was still a bit too confused to really know what he was feeling right now, but it was mostly an overwhelming feeling of joy, guilt and relief. He wondered how often Jack had casually talked to him like he had a moment ago, without him hearing him.

"We humans don't always care about what's good for us. That would be no fun."

With a chuckle that sounded too brittle for his taste, Jack relaxed in his grip. He hugged him back tightly, as if he feared Jamie would suddenly disappear. Or just go right through him. Jamie hoped that had never happened.

"I missed you," Jamie said. And somehow, thought he didn't realize it at the time, he had.


For some reason, when I was trying to outline this, it kept like looking like something out of Cinderella.
