Winters Revenge

Chapter Twenty-Three-Piece Of My Heart.

Jack bit his tongue the sound of Elsa sobbing throughout the room made his heart drop with a sudden emotion, and as he went to speak the thump in his throat wouldn't allow him to from the shock that displayed on his face. She had longed pulled away from the hug she'd been in and had wrapped her arms around herself for comfort.

Elsa "You knew, didn't you?" She sobbed her voice cracking into a thousand pieces.

Jack "I had a feeling...." he trailed off his stomach twisting in knots from the confession.

Elsa "Why didn't you tell me you knew?" She stuttered the tears running down her face as she continued to cry.

Jack "Would you have believed me if I told you? And besides you're the one who was being secretive about this." He spoke.

Elsa "So it's my fault?" Her tears flowed down her cheeks again.

Jack "I never said it was your fault Elsa, no one deserves to have what happened to you to happen to them." He grew sad stepping closer as she shook.

Elsa "I was.... too ashamed to tell anyone, I thought... if I pretended that it never happened.... It wouldn't be real...." She closed her eyes tightly shut the nightmares buried into her brain playing in her mind.

Jack "That's why you were so scared of Nick wasn't it? You thought he was going.... to do the same?" he sighed putting all the pieces of the puzzle together.

Elsa nodded quickly unable to say a word more, clearly Jack had been feeling some sort of distress when seeing her the way she'd been treated back at the Black incorporation and how she acted with others around her.

Jack "I guess all the panic attacks make sense now. And it explains why you were the way you were" He looked down to the floor shovelling his feet from nerves.

Elsa "It's what he programmed me to think and do." She blurted out.

Jack "What to take advantage of you when you were in a vulnerable situation?" He snapped.

Elsa "You saw what he did to me, he experimented on without my permission!" she hugged herself.

Jack "I'm sorry.... I shouldn't have talked to you like that.... it's not your fault promise me I'm just angry...."

Elsa "Why are you so angry? It's not like you care" she grew cold.

Jack "Don't care? Elsa if anything I care too much." His eyes widened releasing what he'd just replied with.

Elsa "What does that mean?"

Jack "Nothing...." He went quiet.

Elsa "What Mr I know what's best goes quite all of a sudden?" She snapped.

Jack "It's doesn't matter okay just forget I said anything." He said starting to walk away.

Elsa "No! Tell me why I should? I at least deserved to know why?" She walked forward going after him.

Jack "Elsa just it" he walks away out of the room.

Elsa "No tell me!" She walks behind.

Jack turns around suddenly pinning Elsa to the wall of the hallway her eyes staring back with surprise as her heart fluttered.

Jack "Because I like you okay! There I said it." He yelled.

Elsa "You.... you like me?" She responded.

Jack "Yes...I don't care if you don't feel the same..." his heart pounded as he gets cut off.

Elsa "What if.... I did feel the same way?"

Jack "What?" His voice shook from shock.

Elsa "You heard me...." She blushed slightly.

Jack "Say it again..." he started to breath heavy his heart pounding loudly against his chest as his face grew closer towards hers.

His breath sharpened as he drew closer his lips merely inches away from hers.

Elsa "I like you too..." she blushed a bright crimson across her cheeks.

The sudden heat from his body pressing against hers sent shivers down her spine and as his pink lips pressed against hers, he kissed her sweetly, her lips moved with her heart thumping loudly against her chest. Her mind dizzy with confusion as she felt the feeling of warmth and dizziness hit across her. She had never felt this feeling before and she didn't want it to stop one bit. As she kissed him back, she felt his hand on her cheek cupping it gently while his other hand displayed above her head, her arms pinned to her side as she tried to break one free. Jack pulled away suddenly feeling guilty at his actions while Elsa stood grounded at the wall.

Jack "Sorry..." he pulled away letting her go free.

Elsa "It's okay...."

Jack "No I shouldn't have done that especially when you've been through so much, it's not appropriate." He sighed staking a step back from her and heading down the hallway leaving her alone and speechless.

Elsa smiled her heart fluttering like butterflies that were swirling around inside her stomach, the truth she didn't want this moment to end.... And as she turned around to walk the other way she stopped for a moment placing a finger on her lips where Jack had kissed her smiling like an idiot before walking away from the spot that the event had just taken place.
