The New Girl

Jack, Jack, Jack..

Then Jack tried to ask my mom a question.

"Hey, miss- um.." He said as he tried to think of what to call my mom.

"Please, just call me Jennifer." My mom said.

"Ok, um, Jennifer.. Would it be ok if I stayed the night?" Jack asked.

"Of course." My mom answered.

"Yay!" I squealed.

Jack and my mom looked at me..

"I mean, cool.." I said, embarrassed.

I turned away because I could feel my cheeks getting warm. Jack laughed and my mom led him to a guest room. I sighed and sat down on my bed. It was late, and I relaxed on my bed. I swear, the moment my head hit the pillow, I was out. My mom came back in, only to see me snoring with my hair in my face. She laughed, and walked up to me. She kissed me on the forehead.

"Goodnight."

And left. She went to say goodnight to Jack, as he was laying in his bed with his hands on his stomach just thinking.

"Goodnight, Jack." My mother said gently.

"Goodnight.. Um, Jennifer? Can I tell you something I haven't told anyone?" He said.

"Just something you need to get off your chest?"

"Yeah.."

"Go ahead."

"Um, I like Elsa.." Jack said quickly.

"I know." My mother replied..

"You do? Does Elsa know? Is it obvious?"

My mother laughed and said

"It's not that obvious, but I know something you might not."

"What?" Jack wondered.

"She hides it well, but she likes you too." My mother said.

Jack sat and thought about it, and my mother said

"Goodnight."

She turned off his lamp, and walked out, shutting the door behind her.

"Woah.." And that's all he said.

I yawned. It was the next day, and I was excited to get up. Not for school, of course, but to see Jack. I threw on whatever clothes I felt like wearing, and walked down stairs to see Anna and Jack talking in the couch. They didn't notice me yet, until I walked over to the table. I sat down, only to be lifted back on my feet by Jack.

"Good morning." I said happily.

"Good morning, Snowflake." Jack said.

My dad looked at my mom with a concerned face and my mom just laughed.

"Want a snow day?" He asked.

I don't care. If you DO make it a snow day, make it light." I said, grabbing my favorite cereal box.

"Froot loops." Jack said watching me.

"Mhmm." I replied.

"Be right back." Jack said, walking out the door, closing it behind him.

"Jenn." My dad whispered.

"What?"

"Come here." He said. Getting up and pulling my mom to the side.

I couldn't hear them, but I knew what they were talking about. I sat down on the couch next to Anna.

"They're talking-"
