Flames and Frosts: An Opposite Couple

Chapter 2

PHOEBE

Ugh. This Jack Frost is getting in my nerves. I want to burn him, electrify him with my electric fires and kill him. After I threw a fireball at him and saw his right arm burn, I snickered. And a bonus one, he was knocked out on the wall. A walked to him and pointed my staff. Then, I felt an arm on my shoulder. "Phoebe, stop. It's getting worse." Tooth said.

I sighed and turned to Jack. "Listen Jack, don't you ever underestimate me. Understand?"

He didn't move. He didn't answer. So, I took it as a yes. I clicked my fingers and the burn vanished. And Jack gasped for air. I looked at North and he raised his eyebrow. "Phoebe, this is not the role of a Guardian."

"I know. It's just that, he's getting on my nerves." I made my hand into a fist.

"I know. Jack is a playboy. You have to understand."

"Well, at least I got my revenge on calling me Flame Girl." I rolled my eyes.

Jack coughed and got up. "Sorry." he muttered.

I looked at him and glared. "Don't call one of my nicknames, Frost. That move is just a beginning."

"Whatever, Phoebe."

"If you're good, make me a snowflake. I always want to see one."

He smiled. Ugh. That gorgoeus smile. That gorgoeus lips and hair. Especially his eyes. As much as I hate him, I found him........ Attractive. Ugh! For God's sake, Phoebe! Why are you seeing him attractive. I shook my head and saw a snowflake landed on my palm. I was delighted at first, but then, it melted. I frowned. This is the thing I hated about myself. I am a destroyer instead of being a good Guardian. "Sorry. My body is really in my heat temperature. Maybe overheated is the right one." I explained.

He looked at me with a can-I-touch-your-skin face. "Go for it."

He touched my skin and he shrieked. "It IS hot."

I snickered. Then I looked at North. "What's the problem anyway? Why did you call us?"

"I saw Pitch in the globe. We have to prepare."

"What? You mean the REAL Pitch Black?" I asked.

"Yes. And somehow, Manny chose a new guardian. Jack Frost is the new Guardian." North said.

"WHAT?!" Jack and I yelped.

"Heh. Even Phoebe doesn't want Jack to be a Guardian." Bunny muttered.

"What makes you think that I want to be a guardian?"

"We didn't choose you. Manny chose you." North said.

"You don't like me. You're all hardwork and deadlines, while I'm snowballs and fun times. I'm not a guardian."

"Jack, you don't know what we do. Each light is a child." Tooth flew to the globe.

"A child that believes. Good or bad, naughty or nice, we protect them."

"Ahh. Ahh." Jack said because Tooth was looking at his teeth.

I rolled my eyes. "Tooth, fingers out of mouth."

"Sorry, they're just beautiful."

"After all this years this is his answer. Spending all the time thinking new ways to bright kids. No, no, no. That's not for me! No offense."

"How was that not offensive. And what does this clown know bringing joy to children?" Bunny scratched his ear.

"Um, do you ever heard of a snow day? I prefer a fun time but kids like what I did." Jack said back.
