Chapter 3: Nipping at your nose

 I was awaken from my deep slumber by the sound of the running feet of my younger relatives and a loud, "Wow! A white Christmas!" 

I instantly raced out of bed and too my window. It was completely covered in frost. I rammed it opened and a gust of wind blew my hair back. The snow was falling in pretty little bits, the size of peas.  

I breathed out heavily, seeing my breath change to the color of a hazy off white. 

I looked up and down however, Jack wasn't in sight. I didn't let this discourage me. I took a nice warm bath and changed into a festive red and green sweater and black skinny jeans. 

I ran downstairs to see the living room had already become a sea of ripped gift wrapping paper. The two six year olds helped each other open toys, Adam, who was twelve, was already to the first boss of ONE of his new video games, the parents quietly opened gifts from each other in the next room. I smiled a huge, bright smile and walked to the tree. Three packages marked with my name. One from Mom&Dad, one from my aunt, and the other from Santa. 

I decided to give out my gifts before opening my own. I ran back upstairs and grabbed the small bag of packages. They were small cause I don't have a job yet and couldn't afford high quality presents. 

They all enjoyed their gifts and I enjoyed mine. After the clean up and breakfast, they sent me upstairs to change in order to go to my grandmother's house. Before actually changing, I forced myself to reopen the window, subjecting myself to the freezing cold air. I took in a deep breath and let it out. "Hey, took you long enough," A teenage voice sarcastically grunted from above my head. I looked up and there was Jack Frost. "So, did you like what my Buddy Clause gave you?" He laughed. 

I rolled my eyes, "Of corse I do." 

"Hey, lemme come in," he whispered, allowing himself into my room and closing the window behind him. He gave me a comforting cold hug. 

"You're all I could think about," he placed his chin on my shoulder. Goosebumps appeared on my arm. "I couldn't stop thinking about you either." 

He chuckled and I felt his staff against my back as his hug became tighter. 

He let go and smiled brightly, "I have something for you," he pulled out a unwrapped blue box from his hoodie. My face turned red, "You didn't didn't have to..." 

He placed it in my hands, "It's not like I bought it or anything. North helped me make it." 

I smiled meekly and opened the box. Inside was what seemed to be a fully glass snowflake. The light bounced off the perfectly shaped edges. It was absolutely perfect, in every way possible. "Jack I..." I looked up at his face, it was practically glowing. 

"Touch it, it's ice. It won't melt though," he gently placed my linger on one of the ends, it was freezing. "I... I wish I had gotten you something," I closed the box and placed it on my dresser. 

"Ya know, there is one thing I really want," he grabbed my hand and pulled me close. My heart beat faster and my breath turned off white. "This time, you kiss me," he nipped at my nose, turning it pale. Other than that, my face was completely red. 

What was I even suppose to do? I couldn't believe he asked for that. He knows just as well as I do that I suck at that. 

"Are you serious?" I stared at the frost on his sweater. He grinned mischievously. 

Obviously that was a yes. 

So I awkwardly puckered my lips and leaned in until i met with him. After a while of my barely being able to hang onto being the leader the wind blew the window so hard that the window burst open again. I quickly turned around and closed the window. 

His face was a bright pink and I was chilled. 

He bit his lip and looked out to the window. "I - I wish i could stay longer but it seems like the weather needs me, " He stuttered. "You have to get ready anyway right?" He kissed my forehead and reopened the window. He did a small two finger salut and was gone. 

I rest of the day was spent in a daze. I didn't know what to think! Jack Frost, he liked me. He was immortal though.... As i age, he'll just continue to stay youthful. 

Why must things be so complicated?
