Sorry, it's so short but since most of you know that my account was hacked, I had to redo everything but don't worry with two or three more chapters left, I will try to make them longer. Hopefully, I can update next week with a longer chapter. Thank you all for being there for me and following/favoriting this story. It pushes me to keep updating. Thank you all!


She can't believe she actually did it. She can't believe she actually kissed him. She kissed Jack Frost. The Jack Frost.

Her face burned with embarrassment but she did not regret it at all. What she told him was true. She loved Jack Frost. Not the idea of him but the real him. The one who had a hard time trying to get children to believe in him. The one who felt hurt and angry when a child passed through. The one who told her that she was the only one who believed in him. The one who told her who she was. The one who was so confused but had finally begun to understand what he was meant to do when the Man of the Moon woke him up. The one who looked at her like she was the only person in the entire world who understood him and on many levels, she could. The one who could make her heart race with one touch, the one who could make her body burn with energy whenever he touched her or was near her. The one who helped her believe again. The one who didn't give up on her.

The one she had fallen in love with it without knowing it. She bashed a horse's head in, feeling a sense of accomplishment as it burst into nothing. She couldn't even begin to explain what had just happened when she had found Jamie and his friends.

She felt a sense of danger in the air and fear seeping from her brother and she had froze. She could not make her leg move no matter how much she yelled at herself inside, trying to get her body to move but she couldn't.

She.

Just.

Couldn't.

She knew this feeling. She knew the feeling of despair and hopelessness. That nothing would ever get better ever again. The fear that choked her around her throat and she couldn't fight it because it was hopeless. But she saw Jamie and a slow anger began to send heat in her bones, rushing through her veins like fire, warming her body, beating away the cold.

Suddenly, she began to see. See that Jamie and his friends were not alone and the huge dark clouds with thunder rushing towards them and a man, the boogeyman was taunting them but not just them. The people she had lost faith in. The people her father had told her and Jamie and little Sophie about. The people who watched over them, who watched over her when she was a child.

Santa Claus. The Tooth Fairy. The Easter Bunny. And one boy. A boy who made her heart race and butterflies break out in her stomach and heat erupt in her blood like an avalanche.

Jack Frost.

When she saw them, tears burned in her eyes and the flickering hope in her heart began to glow, glowing brighter by the second the longer she stared at them. The fire began to flick before growing in size until it exploded inside of her body, her soul, eradicating the fear and despair and grief inside her, the darkness screeching with pain as the fire grew bright, unwavering.

"Still think there's no such thing as the Boogeyman?"

Her heart began to race because she knew that voice. Knew it like her own. The voice that taunted her dreams, turning them to nightmares. The voice that her father disappear in front of her eyes. The voice that made Jack Frost look away and run off. The voice that made her beliefs waver.

Pitch.

And suddenly, she hated him. She hated him with passion and when she saw his cloud going towards the Guardians, towards Jamie, she found she could move. A new fear rising inside of her. The fear of losing Jamie.

And Jamie was standing straight but she could sense the worry coming off of him in waves and that kicked her into gear.

"I do believe in you. I'm just not afraid of you."

She felt her heart race and she ran, ran without thinking. Only knowing that she had to get to Jamie before the clouds did. She just had to protect him. She ran.
