Major shoutout to AyameKitsune for taking the time to review! You rule dude!
Too Dang Hot
Jamie Bennet wished that winter would come sooner. Not only was he wanting to see Jack Frost and the Guardians again, but he had a major problem.
The eleven-year-old was just too hot.
"Snow cones! Get your snow cones!"
Well it wasn't Jack, but the snow cone man was a welcome site for the dripping, perspiring boy.
Speaking of Jack Frost, after Jamie got his snow cone, he decided to visit Jack's lake, since the winter spirit always made a habit of freezing it over even in the dead heat of summer. Even if it wasn't frozen, it was a heck of a lot cooler than anywhere in Burgess, he was sure of that!
He was surprised to find the Winter King spread out on the lake, on a very very thin and small piece of ice, panting and groaning in discomfort. Burns were already forming where sunlight had penetrated the winter spirit's skin.
"Jack!" he said, worry in his voice, "What are you doing here?! Not that I'm not glad to see you, but you should be on the other side of the world this time of year!"
The blue eyes opened with effort, and Jack looked at his first believer his eyes would not focus on Jamie. Instead they focused on the tasty, cold red and yellow syruped ice that the boy had in his hand.
"Jamie...what...is that...Shave Ice?"
The boy looked at him confused, then it clicked. "Yeah. But we call it a snow cone. Why?"
Jack weakly got to his feet,
"Because that is the reason I came to Burgess in the middle of summer. I wanted a shave Ice...heard it was a thing.."
Jamie couldn't believe his ears
"Are you telling me...you came here, to Burgess...in the middle of a heat wave...and almost melted...for a snow cone?!"
"Yes."
Jamie facepalmed.
"For being 300 years old, Jack...you act more and more like Sophie every time we meet..."
More drabbles are on the way! Stay tuned! Also, if any of you have suggestions, I'll be more than happy to think over them XD
