Jack P.O.V

This can't be true. He's lying, she was as much as a goner yesterday, so why, why is she alive? I can't help but feel as though this is a dream, but even so I can feel the tears falling out of my eyes. Mr. North stood up and soon embraced me in a hug and I immediately excepted it as I sobbed on his shoulder.

He was always like a fatherly figure to me. He is my foster father, not many people know, I was excepted into his family of foster kids. I told him to never act like a father to me, I was too driven on popularity to want it to fail just because I lived with the Principle.

Mr. North hugged me tighter, "I'm sorry." I whispered my voice weak and breaking. "What are you sorry about?" He replies with his voice calm and caring.

"I'm sorry for everything, the way I handled my situation, by being selfish, the way I treated you. I'm so sorry." I removed my arms to stare into his eyes so he could see the sincerity in them. "No foster parents ever put up with me except you, and as much as I tried to piss you off, you, you didn't give up on me."

"Jack, I was never mad at you from the day I met you. I let you handle your feelings alone and I'm disappointed in myself."

I wiped my tears and stared at him confusingly. I did change my image and the way I dealt with things. I started to smoke, wear dark clothing. I pierced my ear. I became the image of a bad boy. The way Elsa sees me is...completely wrong, maybe that's why she won't love me...

"No, it's all my fault, all this time I was afraid, I was afraid the only family I had left would leave me, I don't want to be alone." I confessed looking down my heart beating rapidly.

"Jack, you're not alone." He put a hand on my shoulder and I looked at him surprised. "Your family is here, at this school, and you have a sister waiting for you. Now go see your sister and make her, us, proud."

I nodded and smiled. I'm still not sure the boy I used to be is still in here though.


Elsa P.O.V


Cut it out Elsa! I did not eavesdrop the conversation at all! I did not hear Jack just act good. It could all just be fake anyway. But if it's true he could be serious.

This is crazy the school's bad boy is actually a boy that shielded his heart, he's broken and he needed somebody all this time to help him. OHHH, this is like this one book I read... No I can't think like this, if I think like this I'll only give in to his act. This isn't a book. Maybe I should leave and he wont even know I was here. Was I even supposed to stay here?

I stood up from the bench and started to silently tiptoe away until an echo of a door opening was heard.

"Elsa?" Jacks voice echoed.

"Oh, uhh hey Jack..." I nervously fiddling with my braid. "I-i was just going to..to...uhh...the bathroom, ya the bathroom." I giggled moving towards the bathroom and reaching for the door knob, when a hand grabbed my wrist and I spun around making me look at Jack.

I stared into his eyes a bit scared and his face was serious, while his eyes seemed a bit red. "Elsa." he muttered his eyes gazing into mine. His voice sounding broken and fragile. I stared awkwardly and looked down than back at him. "Did you hear anything?" He muttered again.

Oh god. He knows! What's he going to do to me, that look on his face seems intimidating."W-what do y-you mean, I was just going to the bathroom, I mean what were you doing? You look all messed up, but it's not like I could understand right?" I say sarcastically a bit of anger in my words.

Jack frowned at me, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean what I said back over there."

I rolled my eyes and looked at my hand. "Ugh, just let go of me!" He has some place to be and that's not with me. I was starting to give in again, I'm so stupid. Don't give in Elsa!

"Don't you have somewhere to be!" I yelled glaring at him "So, why are you bothering me?"

"W-what?" He says his eyes widened.

"Yes, I did overhear, why would you change yourself Jack. I just don't get you! For all I know that could've been all an act!" I just can't stop these things from coming out my mouth. "You're so fake, and than using me, just so you can use me to put all your feelings somewhere, thats so freaking messed up man!"

"So, you did over hear." he muttered.

"Yes, I did, and I'm not sorry." I finally got my wrist out of his hand and started walking away. I need to get to class anyway.

"It wasn't an act Elsa." he said from behind me, as I got farther away from him.

"Well, I don't believe you." I replied, sort of regretting what I started.

I started walking faster and faster trying to get away from him but a part of me screamed "Run after me!"

Than an arm went around my waist as if he read my mind, than suddenly his lips were on mine. My eyes were wide, and my heart was beating wildly. Fireworks were exploding, and I just melted into the kiss. This is part of the game. This is part of the game. This is part- URGH! I don't know anymore.

Jack let go of me and I looked away blushing. "I may not be the good guy I used to be but you make me want to be good again, Elsa."

I stared at him in awe and saw as he left the school grounds, most likely about to see his sister, maybe that will help him become the guy he used to be.

I may have over done it this time. What did you do to me Jack frost?


Although Elsa was still unclear about her feelings, Jack new his love for her would change his ways, and having his sister back just makes him feel the broken pieces of his heart coming back together.
