Why Me? (Jack Frost)

He Doesn't Like Me... I Think

-Iris-

Jack and I headed out to the little town of Burgess. The kids were playing in the snow again, and Jack sighed. He pulled out his staff. Snow began to float from the skies as the children cheered "Snow day! Snow day!" I felt the snow in my hands and picked some up. The snow started to melt away. I sighed and allowed the water to drip down from my fingertips. Looking at Jack, he was staring intently at the sky. The moon was out though it was the afternoon, and I looked back down. My hair slipped in front of my face as I took out a sheet of paper. I started drawing Jack staring at the sky, but when he caught me sketching, I instantly blushed.

"Are you drawing me?" He asked, clearly amused. Without getting a chance to answer his question, he snatched the paper away. My eyes widened. He was gonna see what I drew.

"This is lovely." He smiled at me. Handing it back, I nodded and returned the smile.

"So, do we just sit around and wait until night time?" I asked.

"Well we don't have much of a choice genius." Jack grit his teeth. His hand tightened around his staff/cane and I looked down.

"Why are you so cold hearted?" I blurted.

Idiot. I mentally slapped myself across the face for asking a question like that at a time like this.

"Excuse me?" He asked back.

"Why are you so cold hearted!?" I yelled. Well, no stopping me now. I had enough of him being so rude to me. My hands clutched around the drawing of Jack, and I started trembling. Since we were on a tree, my foot slipped, and I almost fell. Jack grabbed my wrist and pulled me up. I kept thinking about it over the three years and how I could've possibly liked him. I growled at him, and my shoulders relaxed a little. He looked down and sighed.

"Don't look at me like that. I'm not always gonna be there when you fall." He smirked.

"Whatever bastard." I rolled my eyes.

"I'll be back, keep watch." He ordered. I clenched my fists again and sighed.

"Fine." I spat. He disappeared and I sat down.

"What's wrong with him?" I muttered to myself before continuing to draw another picture.

-Jack-

I ran off into the distance and stopped to catch my breath when I found myself in an alleyway. I hit a brick wall in front of me and grit my teeth.

"What am I supposed to tell her? That I like her? If I try to kiss her, I could burn her lips because of how cold my body temperature is! Why did the Man in the Moon pick her!?" I cried out. I growled and hit the brick wall again.

"Well Manny! Why'd you pick her!? Why!?" I yelled. No answer. Pathetic attempt since he never talked to any guardian.

"What am I doing? I can't make her fall in love with me. I'm a cold hearted person, I can't give her warmth and I can tell she clearly needs it. I can't do anything to help her. She also hates me. I made that pretty clear by the way I treated her." I sighed. Great, now I'm talking to myself. Why would he do that? She needed warmth and comfort yet I couldn't do anything. She hates me and she probably always will. I decided to head back to the tree we were on. I noticed Iris had fallen asleep, I don't blame her. We've been through a lot. I'll just wake her up when I sense trouble.

"I can't even give her something to keep her warm." I sighed.

"You will be alright, the girl will love you for you." Manny replied. My eyes widened.

"You talked to me." I smiled to myself.

"She'll love me for me." I whispered. My eyes involuntarily rolled. This won't work. She can't love me for me.

-Iris-

"Iris! Get up!" Jack yelled in my ear. Flinching, I shot up and my forehead collided with his.

"I'm up!" I yelled back.

"You have a hard head." We both said at the same time. Rolling my eyes, I rubbed my forehead and winced in pain. Jack chuckled before sighing and staring up at a window.

"What's up?" I asked.

"Pitch."

"Then let's go. Try and work together." I sighed.

"Thank you, and I found Pitch sneaking into a little girl's room." Jack said. I nodded. He smiled at me for a second and wiped it away. Is he being nice?
