POV Jack

”You really want me to stay.. HERE?” I yelled when Elsa brought me to her room. She had insisted that I would live in Arendelle for while. In her castle.  “I thought you were joking about that part where I sleep in your room?” She started to seem nervous so maybe I overreacted just now. “Ehh, I am sorry?” I smirked at her and she rolled her eyes at me but when she turned around I was able to see her smile faintly. Somehow she conceals her emotions especially around me.

“Yes Jack, I will offer you my room but no tricks!” She was waving her front finger in front of me. “I will behave master,” I said while bowing. As soon as I lifted my head she threw snowball to my face. “Ah, not fair!” I laughed and stop her from running by pulling her to me with the help of my staff. Having a G formed on the end of it has some advantages.

She was laughing so she had fun and managed to even cheer me up just now. Maybe I really have a friend? I glanced at her and had to admit in my mind, a girl as a friend. I hope it is not too weird. After a long day I felt tired.

She was just opening her hair in front of the mirror when I started to lay on the ground. “Good night, my friend,” I tasted the word friend in my mouth and it sounded alright. She just hummed a return and bombed her hair in totally focused mental state.

I lifted my hood over my head and suddenly heard a scream. A surprised one, “Jack, why are you on the floor?” I looked at her and the bed. “You don’t suggest that we?” I had to clear my throat. ”NO! Absolutely no!” She was annoyed. ”I mean that you can sleep next to me if you behave,” she sighed. “I can’t let you have guestroom because servants would notice when the room is being used.

She tapped the edge of the bed, “C’mon Frosty!” She furrowed her eyebrows. “Oh, sorry! Do you want me to call you either Overland or Frost?” Honestly I still wonder why she hasn’t been talking to me with my first name that often. “Jack will do, just Jack.” She blushed for a second, “Alright Jack.”

“So, Jack, turn around and no peeking!” Oh, she is going to change, my eyes looked to other direction quickly. Then I saw how she went to bed wearing a purple night gown. She was now under the covers. “Jack, come to sleep already! Or do you sleep while you sit?” What? Is the cold queen actually making jokes out of me. I couldn’t stay without smirking and laughing. “Good one!”

She was sleeping on the right side and I went to left. I went to lay on the top the covers and she sighed. “Jack, just relax! I won’t bite you!” She laughed while she pulled the bed sheet from under me and tucked me in. Situation was quite embarrassing actually. “Maybe I shouldn’t, you might get cold.”

She laughed a little and with sleepy voice she responded, “Cold never bothered me.” She just used her favorite line on me. “Oh, well if that’s the case.” I heard her sleeping calmly and I tried to sleep on the edge as much as possible. It was a king size bed so there was room but I wanted to make sure our bodies won’t touch. Slowly my eyes started to feel heavy and after couple of blinks they didn’t open no more.

/ The Dream. /

It was past my bedtime as I finished a bedside table for customer in Rohan’s wood. It had carvings from bears and I think that it will be shipped to Scotland. I wiped the dust off and started to feel sick again. Dizzyness was filling me when my heart started to beat slower, “Please, not now.” I whispered and finally I felt little better. It was time for my medicine, something that lessens the rejecting of my new heart but won’t fix it.

“Some fresh air,” I said and left the workshop. I had brought my lantern with me since I love the light that it does more than a flashlight. It was somehow more living and I love life. My feet were taking me to Arendelle’s forest. I thought that I could look for some carving material to my own project. I will do a figurine of certain person who has been appearing on my mind occasionally. Mainly it is just a profile of a girl that I have never met.

Stars were bright tonight and my breath formed steam clouds because of the chilly winter weather. I glanced at the moon and smiled, it was a beautiful night. I entered the forest and looked for some pieces of wood when I heard a yell. I stop the thing I was doing and listened. The yell came again, sounded like a child who cries for help. “Where are you?” I yell and drop my lantern when I hear her responding. Quickly I run towards the voice. My heart brings me sharp waves of pain, it beats without the normal rhythm now. Doctors told me to take it easy but now I can’t

Finally I reached a little girl, I took some support from my knees and had to catch my breath for a while. “What is wrong?” I managed to ask from her. She spoke so fast that I only managed to hear the words sister and ice. “Hey, calm down. What about your sister and the ice?” I smiled faintly.

”The ice is cracking! She is stuck!” She seemed really worried and I felt the urge to help. No matter what I will help her and her sister. “Take me to where she is, I will try to help you guys,” I took the girl’s hand in mine and we started to run towards the middle of the forest. The pain was filling me again and then I fell.

Fresh snow wasn’t easy to run. Both of my feet got stuck as I noticed when I glanced over my shoulder. “Uh..Just give me a second,” I said to the girl who was staring at me with sadness. Quickly I pulled my feet from the snow and didn’t care even though I lost my shoes at the process. I just needed to run as fast as I could to help her sister.

Soon we arrived to a pond and when we stopped it was like someone is stabbing your heart, that I felt after all the running. The worst wave of pain made me squeeze my chest as cold sweat was running on my forehead. No, now I need to focus on this matter and not to myself. I watched the platinum blonde haired girl that was standing on the cracking ice.

“Hey! Are you alright?” I yelled to her and she told me that she is scared. She reminded me from my little sister who I left to Burgess when I traveled to study my favorite subject in abroad. Carefully I walked on the ice and towards her, it was breaking up fast. I introduced myself and found out that her name was Elsa. Quickly I think of a plan and fetched a staff from forest’s edge. I will try to get her thinking of something else, something fun instead of fear. I told her that we would play some hopscotch.

When Elsa started to trust in me more I laughed and started the game that is supposed to save her. I counted as I jumped to her direction three times. Her expression softened a little and then she was jumping to my direction. I counted her jumps and when she reached three I pulled her away from the ice. The ice was slippery without my shoes and there were some water already on its surface. I slip and flew to the spot where she had just been standing. Seeing her alright made me feel restful and happy, I laughed as the ice break under me and I fell. For a small moment I saw her smiling and then screaming my name.

The deep water’s embrace was terrifying. The last amount of air left my lungs and formed a bubble in the dark water. I felt too weak to try to get out. Accidentally I took a breath and water filled my lungs, it was ice cold. My body twitched as I was drowning. Then I felt calm and relaxed, my eyes became shut and the silence was almost touchable. 

My eyes got wide open and I realized that I was rising up. My body got through the thick layer of ice and I heard the moon speaking to me. I was looking at my pale skin and trying to figure out who I am and why I am here. The Moon told me that my name is Jack Frost and someday I will find out more. He told me about the Spirit of Winter who had taken my dead body and giving me new life since the moon asked him to do so. Unfortunately in the process I and Winter Spirit didn’t combine well since I died. Normally spirits take live bodies to become something spectacular. Now I lost my memories because of that.

I decided to leave the pond and started to walk towards the forest. Soon I heard loud yells and saw lights. They were coming right towards me. There were some guards running to my direction and when they got close to me I tried to speak to them. “Hey! Mind telling me where I am?” I smiled but then startled when they run right through me. They didn’t see me. I glanced at the moon and wanted to ask why but I kept my mouth shut and left that place. A voice was calling me.

/ The Dream Ends /

“Jack.. JACK! Wake up” someone was pushing me from my shoulder as I opened my eyes. Yeah, I were on a girl’s room and in her bed. Soon I realized that my hand was over her body and I quickly retreated. “Uh, sorry!” I gasped. ”No, not that!” Elsa said, ”You were twitching on your sleep and moaning which woke me up. Is everything alright?” She whispered and looked me in the eyes. “Just having a hard dream, that was all.” I turned my back to her. Actually I just saw a memory from the time when I saved her.

“What dream?” She asked curiously which made me sigh. ”From the time I saved you,” I whispered. “Oh, I am really sorry about what happened to you.” Her words made me turn back to her and take her hand in mine. “Don’t be! I don’t regret doing so in any case!” I tried to say with determination. She smiled faintly and I let her hand go. “I would do it again if necessary,” I smiled to her and she blushed. “I see,” she whispered and started to lay on her side. For few moments there were just the silence until I heard her sleeping again. Her breathing sounded soft.
