A/N: Thanks so much to all who are following this story! I'm really glad so many people are reading, but if you have a spare minute, please drop a comment on how I'm doing! :) Just a few words can really make my day, trust me. I will really really appreciate any kind of feedback I can get, as I haven't written fanfiction in a while and I'm a little insecure about my writing right now.
To those who have reviewed/given feedback, thank you so much! I treasure each one :3
Also I'm not sure where Jamie lives, I know they showed it in the movie but I can't remember...hopefully it's not Boston because then this won't make much sense! lol
Enjoy!
College
"I'm moving to Boston next month."
Jack tilted his head, currently perched Indian style on Jamie's window sill. He'd decided to stop by earlier in the day, and taking the brunette's feelings to heart, stayed a bit longer this time to actually say hello. After all, it wasn't like he had to hide from the boy anymore.
"Boston? Why?" He hopped into the room, bringing with him a few flurries of snowflakes inside. He browsed the room curiously, poking and prodding at practically every other item. The last time he'd been inside and really seen this room was when Jamie was 10 years old, and it was interesting to see up close all the new things he had.
For one thing, his reading preferences. He couldn't help but laugh out loud at the majority of reading selection – much of it focused on the lore and origins of holiday figures and urban myths.
'Not exactly myths.' Jack thought, wondering how the authors might have reacted to a visit from himself. They would probably have a field day.
"For college."
Jack grimaced, making no attempt to hide his distaste. Although he usually hung around the children he was now charged to protect, one didn't go 300 years without overhearing some of the nearby parents' conversations. College was something that simply sounded painful for all parties involved. "That's where you'll get no sleep to learn things you'll never use? Why would you want to go there?"
Jamie laughed, pausing in his task of packing things into a huge cardboard box. "Where did you hear that?"
Jack shrugged, now moving on to examine the cage on Jamie's desk, and the scampering lizards contained inside. "I overhear things. Parents, mostly."
"Well that's an interesting interpretation…but what I'll learn, I definitely intend to use, trust me. Anyway, I'm telling you because you should visit me there instead." Jamie explained. "Are you listening?"
Ice blue eyes widened suddenly, and Jack whirled around with a wide smile on his face. "Yup, sure I heard you. Uh, well look at the time…I should go, North – I mean, Santa wanted to, uh, wanted me to help, um, paint his toys! Yeah, so I'll see you later!" Before Jamie could even blink, the Guardian had zipped out of the window, the only evidence of his visit a small pile of snow already melting on the floor.
And two frozen lizards.
"What the - Jaaack!"
