Guilty Hands (Jack Frost)

,, slowly " tooth muttered as she flew besides them.
The sandman having his sand spread on the ground before the shaking legs of jack.

The said boy was standing very uneasily as he held tightly onto bunny with every step he took. He had spent way too long in bed.

Christmas had been getting closer so north had been gone for the past week mostly to prepare everything and lesson his jets so that once it was time he wouldnt have to spent too much time out on presents and rather let the jets take care of it so be could in the end be more there for jack who had been living in the mans place.
Bunny had advice him to do that like himself to be free of moving for emergencies like these.

,, it's ok.. take your time " bunny muttered encouraging as jack took shaky breaths with every steps.

It wasnt like the boy couldnt walk, he had been able to run away or at least stumble away the first time he woke up in this place but the guardians figured it was due to his sudden panic and the adrenalin going through his veins.

Now that he was a lot more calmer, his bony legs seemed to shake just as much as his hands whenever he would use them to hold something or .. to stand and walk.

He turned away from sandy when he was close enough to him having walked across the hall already, he turned back to bunny who was holding him and guiding him forward, leaning against the tall easter spirit, who smiled sadly.
,, ok it's enough "

,, you did great jack, this is good progress" tooth smiled brightly clapping excited as she flew closer to the both of them when bunny sat back onto the couch with jack, who returned tooth smile faintly.

Sandy also smiled showing his thumbs up.

,, are you hungry ?" Bunny asked looking at the cold spirit and the strains of hair that have turned dark.

Jack shock his head looking down onto his feet.

,, tired ?" Tooth asked getting down to sit besides Jack's feet. The boy only shock his head again.

,, I-I'm ok .. " he muttered bearly above a whisper not looking at anyone while the other exchanged a little glance.

,, you know the fairies missed you jack .." she smiled sitting down on the carpeting front him. He looked at her hesitantly but coumdnt keep eye contact as he clenched and clenched his hands balled to fists.

,, I still see children painting picture of you aswell whenever I go to collect their teeth at night.." she smiled looking down herself ,, of all of us.. they hang and leave presents for us all the time. It wouldnt have been like that if it werent for you jack "

He only looked away at that as if be didnt want to face the situation when a sudden image of bloody small hands and dead eyes appeard in his head. He flinched blinking fast.
,, I mean I've heard stories of you before" he swallowed finding himself listening to her.
,, I mean before we met all I was interesst in was if those stories were right about you snowhite teeth.. "

,, p-people were ... talking about me ?" His soft voice spoke as he asked her surprised himself

,, yeah mate. You were the spirit who was always goofing around " bunny laughed obviously jokingly but to jack it seemed as if he was laughing at him
You make a mess of everything
We dont need you
We dont want you

His gaze dropped to look onto his hands.
,, why ?"

,, what ?" Bunny instandly noticed the tone of the boys voice ,, jack ?" He asked since he didnt answer. Leaning forward to see the boy lost in his thoughts .
