A/N: Before everything else, . . . Urgh! Forget it! I'll tell everything later!

Jack's P.O.V.

I, with all the guardians, except Tooth, have fun with each other because we were playing word factory, so it took us all a long time before coming out with a word. I was the next player. It's hard! Letters should all be connected just to form a word. Believe me, I tried. I already saw a letter and I was about to put it on one of the tiles when the door bust open right behind North. The door slammed on him and his head slammed the table. All the cubes were scattered and it all became a mess. Tooth emerged from the door and she was huffing hardly, so full of sweat.

"Wait! Stop playing!" she panted in between the words she's saying. "I got to talk to Jack." I was surprised, for I didn't know I've done something wrong.

"But why?"

"Yes, why?" the others followed.

North butted in, "What Jack must know, we should all know."

"But---"

"It's okay," I interrupted. "Let them know, too."

She took a deep breath and suddenly, we all became silent to give way to her speaking. "Jack, you met a girl three weeks ago, didn't you?"

I stood up, frightened, then answered with trembling, "Y-y... yes."

"The girl you met..." her voice trailed off. Everyone reacted despit my shame, "is sick."

"WHAT?!"

Everyone reacted, even I reacted too. I was surprised of what happened. Ever since we first met, it's supposedly perfect, but she asked me this last question, so I left her and never came back. I didn't know it ended up that way. I froze her heart, or what I meant was I hurt her feelings and she indulged herself into such depression. I should punish myself for leaving her in the castle.

"Is she in the castle?"

"Not anymore. She's gone!"

Tooth's response startled me all the more. I fell on my knees and shed my tears because of such foolishness I did. I should go back and bring her to us so that we could find something that would heal her. Sadly, all that Tooth would say to me was, "She's dead". I wouldn't believe her so I left them and flew back to the place where we first met. When I came back in the castle, all I could hear was the breeze flowing upwards in the air. I wondered if she was still around, not until I saw her necklace on the floor. I wondered if there was a spell inside, but instead, I opened the pendant. It was a picture of her and another girl...? Who's that who? I kept it in the pocket of my pants then saw a paper flying. I took the paper and on it was written:

I'm in Arendelle.

I remembered what she told me about that place, so without a moment's hesitation, I flew and left the Ice Palace.

Hours later, I saw that I'm already in Arendelle until the wind blew me away and made me land on a balcony. It was hers, but I wonder is it really? I sneaked through her window and saw her freezing with cold. I wanted her warm, so without her knowing, I opened the window silently and jumped on her carpet with a thud. She couldn't easily notice because she was 'that' unconscious.

And can't you just believe that on the spot, I am ready to admit my feelings for her?

Psst, wait. I might be kidding.

"Elsa..." I called. Those eyes lit open and caught a glimpse of me.

"...Jack?"

I nodded.
