The Guardians were holding another meeting, and all was going well. Jack Frost even showed up on time for once. But there was something up with him. During the talk about the Winter Solstice, a topic that Jack should have been incredibly interested and excited about, the boy seemed distracted and wistfull, and only replied with "Oh, that's this month?"

Top that with the fact that he hurridly went through the report on how he would be spreading snow everywhere, and the Guardians felt it was only a half-hearted report at best, and they began worrying about their winter spirit.

All, that is, except Tooth.

She looked at Jack, who seemed oblivious to the fact that the meeting was over, and smiled. The winter spirit was gazing out the Pole's window, humming a wintery tune to himself and smiling. Ever so subtly, he frosted the glass into a figure of incredible beauty. Long was the dress and hair, and flowing were the trails of ice from the figure's delicate fingers, the strips took on lives of their own, and Jack's eyes sparkled with imagination and longing. He sighed wistfully and sat gazing at the image, making it dance across the sill.

Tooth was pulled away by North, and gathered in a huddle with the other Guardians. They talked in hushed voices, but Tooth had a feeling even if they had been yelling, Jack would remain oblivious to them.

"What is up with the Showpony?" Bunny asked in a hushed whisper, "I've seen him distracted before but this is ridiculous! He barely even registered the Solstice, even!"

"That was disturbing." North agreed "Jack is usually talking the ears off about the Solstice, but today was like he didn't care. Is very frightening."

Sandy made several figures, Maybe he is sick.

Tooth giggled, causing the others to glare at her.

"Will you boys relax? Jack isn't sick!"

North looked puzzled, "What is problem then?"

"There is no problem!" She had a happy twinkle in her eyes.

"Jack's in LOVE!"

Stunned silence followed her outburst. Bunny's mouth hung open. North was bewildered, and Sandy had five exclamation points over his head.

Bunny was the first to snap out of the stupor laid upon them

"Frostbite...found a gal? He fell under the spell of a sheila?"

"Not just any girl from the look of it." Tooth pondered, "According to his sculpture he is oogling at right now...this one can control ice."

Bunny twitched nervously "Well what do we do?"

Again Tooth giggled gleefully "Do? We do nothing! I suppose we follow him next time he disappears, and find ut who his prospecting princess is that's already got him wrapped around her finger, head over heels in love!"

"That could work." Jack said from his window, suprising them all "Except she's not a princess."

They looked to him confused, and a bit bashful that he had overheard them talking about him, but he didn't seem to care. He smiled , a knowing look upwards towards the shining moon a look of pure ecstasy on his face as the image of a pale girl with flowing blond hair, who commanded the ice to do what she pleased flickered before his eyes.

"She's a Queen."

Yes, for those that are wondering, this means that the Jelsa arc I spoke of will be forthcoming!
