Jack's POV
Keeping to my promise, I didn't bother Genie at all for these past 2 weeks. Even when we passed each other in the hallway, which was quite often now, all I did was nod my head and give a quick hello. In turn, she'd do the same, even adding a smile for me.
That smile always made my knees go weak. It took all my might to wait until she turned the corner to let my weight bring me down. It was making me go insane.
So it was obvious that my simple plan of just not talking was working.
To try and keep my sanity intact, I had decided that when Genie was out and about in the workshop, I'd stay locked inside my room. And when she was off doing her work as an actual Genie, I'd try to be on the other side of the world, making up a huge snowball day for the kids.
It was pretty funny to see the world freak out about a snow storm in Rome, since I only tend to visit every 25 years or so.
There was no tension between Genie and I; but there was tension among the Guardians.
They were torn in their decision of whom to give their support to. On my side were Abril, Tooth, and Sandy. On her side was North and Bunny. You'd figured it'd be vice versa, since girls tend to stick together in these kind of situations.
But not in this instance.
Tooth couldn't understand why Genie wasn't jumping at the chance to be with me. Those were the exact words I heard the one day I overhead them talking in the kitchen. Tooth began to compliment me like crazy; which made my big ego even bigger. Genie just told her that she had her reasons, got up, and left the kitchen.
I made sure I was hiding when she came out. I had thought that Tooth constantly bothering her would make her angry or irritated, but there was no sign of it on her face. Instead, she looked completely exhausted.
Abril, on the other hand, knew all the reasons why Genie wasn't jumping. There had also been times where I'd see her and Genie sitting in front of the fire of the workshop. They'd be sharing a plate of cookies, a cup of cocoa, and whispering some things.
From the way those conversations ended, Abril was always agitated. She would stomp her way down the hallway to her room, open the door, and then slam it shut. Genie would soon follow, her head being down to where she was just looking at the floor.
This had been going on for the past 2 weeks; I expected today to be the same. But it happened a little differently.
I had been inside my room, laying on my bed and reading some random book that Abril gave me. A romance novel, for later, she had told me. Now I understood why it was for later. To say this was romance novel would be a total understatement; this was practically a sex book. It might as well have been the Kama sutra.
It was very enjoyable for me; I'm not going to lie. I had actually pictured myself and Genie as the main characters.
I was so drawn into the story that the loud pounding on my door caused me to drop my book while I floated up 5 feet in the air.
"Jack, open up!" I took a deep sigh and lowered myself back down onto the ground, somewhat grumbling about how Abril just had to interrupt during the good part
I barely unlocked the door when the handle was turned and Abril pushed herself in.
"Genie ran off somewhere." She informed me.
Now Genie is a big girl, and she's an Immortal with powers so it wasn't impossible for her to defend herself. And absolutely no one in the Immortal world wanted to hurt her, feeling that dying a horrible death was enough to atone for anything she had done.
Which to me was absolutely nothing but that's another story.
Right now, I was in full panic; feeling an overwhelming need to protect her. From what, I don't know. But I couldn't this feeling. Just how I couldn't stop myself from grabbing my staff.
"Not even an idea of where she'd go?"
"No. We got into a mini argument and then she just flew off. I would have gone after her but..."
"She told you not to." She nodded her head. "Since when do you listen to her? Seriously Abril, We have to be sure she's safe"
"I think I might have pushed her a little too hard Jack." Abril flopped onto my bed. "I know you told me not to but I was trying to get her to give her answer already."
"Nothing new there. You two always discuss this."
"What's new is that I gave my opinion." We were now joined by Tooth. She fluttered into the room, making her way over to Abril. "I know it was unwanted but I couldn't stop myself. Sorry Jack."
Oh. I got it now. Genie got overwhelmed by both the spirits.
"Well, you two can stay here and share in the pity party. I'm going out to look for her." I ignored whatever else the two had to say, having already jumped out of my bedroom window into the wind.
I asked the wind to take me to where Genie was. Instead of going in one route, it started to throw me around in random directions. One second I was going North, the next, I was being thrown East.
Up. Down. Right. Left, all around. I personally found myself getting dizzy.
Eventually, I figured out that the Wind was not following my request. It became apparent; the Genie had asked it to keep this as a secret.
She didn't want to be followed. But I needed to know that she is safe. .
"Fine fine." I somehow pushed the brakes on this wild ride, and slowly lowered myself down onto the floor of some random area. I could hear the ocean roaring not that far off, so I was near the water.
I decided to take a stroll around, soon finding out that I had landed on some uninhibited island. It made sense, with no humans around, the island still maintained the untarnished beauty of multiple trees, flowers, and wildlife.
It gave me good sense of calmness, if only for a few seconds.
"I hope she's safe."
"No need to worry yourself that way, Jackie boy." I gave out a loud groan, moving forward to bang my head against one of the trees I happened to be next to.
I just had to run into the one guy I didn't want to see.
"Pitch, I really don't want to deal with you right now."
"The feeling is mutual Frost; but a pity for you and I that it needs to be done." He strolled over to me, his hands locked behind his back. "Genie is safe."
At just the mention of her name from his mouth, all those events from 15 years ago came rushing forward to my mind. How he threatened her, how he took her, how he kept her locked up, and all because he was keeping her 'safe'.
A mixture of a growl and a scream came out of my mouth, the tip of my staff lightning up for my upcoming attack. He was ready from me. He unhooked his arms from behind his back to bring them forward, a shield of sand already made and attached to his right arm.
I had noticed that he wasn't holding any kind of weapon; instead the shield was in his dominant hand.
"Where is she?!" My attack blasted forward, hitting the middle of his shield and deflecting it off towards the sky.
One after the other, the attacks kept coming from me. I would change my position to try and throw him off; but Pitch followed my movements perfectly. He maintained a bored expression on his face the whole time while blocking my attacks, even going as far as to fake a yawn.
"Are you done yet?"
"How did you know she was alive?!" another blast. "Where is she?!" another blast. "I swear..."
"I've known for years that she was alive, Jack Frost!" He yelled out, his shield now gone. His sand came spiraling at my chest. It was too late to react.
Once it hit me, it pushed me back until I was flat against a giant boulder. Pitch lowered his hands, but the sand stayed still. He was using it to refrain me from moving.
"Liar!" I had dropped my staff when the sand hit my chest; there was no way to me to get out of this mess.
He began his usual stroll, his hands now locked behind his back once again. My stomach dropped when he got to staff; I thought he was going to break it again.
I don't think my body could handle that additional stress.
He just pushed it aside with his foot and continued to walk towards me.
"Are we going to be gentlemen and have a proper conversation or do I need to keep you in time out?" I continued to struggle against the sand. "Time out it is. But I will be having my say. No, I am not a liar. I've known for years that Genie is alive. I know that Man in Moon brought her back, I know she's now an actual Genie, and I know that she has kept her existence a secret from you for years."
He had noticed that I wasn't listening to him; my fight to get out of his hold was too strong. He remained quiet, waiting for me to answer him. Over time, my struggle ceased when what he said was completely absorbed into my brain.
"You've....known? But how?"
"I'm going to tell you everything Jack. At the end of this, you will either continue to pursue Genie or you will hate her. Either way doesn't matter to me."
"How does it not..."
"Just shut up and listen. You'll get your answer."
And just like that, he recounted everything. And by everything, I mean everything. He even told me about all the times they'd had sex.
That part I could have lived without.
All over again, it felt like my heart was being ripped out of my chest. He did explain why she revealed herself to him; but it still was saddening knowing that she trusted him more with the knowledge of her existence than she trusted me.
"I can practically read your mind, Jack Frost. No, it had nothing to do with trust. It had everything to do with pity; she pitied me because of my sad past. She did not pity you, and it's truly easy to understand. You're Jack Frost, the pretty boy of the Immortals. So popular, surrounded by friends."
"Don't give me that Pitch, you have friends also."
"While this is very hypocritical to say, I'm still going to say it. Hal and Liam are indeed my closest friends, but I did not want them to see me in my grieving state. You, on the other hand, didn't seem to mind anybody seeing you. Everybody was there for you, Abril, North, Tooth, Sandy, Mother Nature- nobody else came towards me."
"Can you blame them? After everything you did? To me, to them, to Genie..." I hadn't notice the sand that held me to the boulder had disintegrated, until I fell forward; the front of my body landed hard on the floor.
"Yes yes, I've heard this speech one too many times." When I pushed my upper body up, I saw that Pitch was now sitting on a log, holding my staff on his lap. He gestured to the log in front of him, basically telling me to take a seat.
Damn, if I had my staff...oh well, might as well. Doing as he said, I sat across from him.
"The Immortals like to think that I'm different from you all; but they couldn't be farther from the truth. Everybody is born into Immortality on their own; no one is around to welcome them. Liam just happened to be in the field where Abril was born; and Abril had to play delivery boy to Man in Moon in order for Genie to be born. I personally like to think of our rebirth as my old friends' way of testing us."
"Testing us for what?" His mini lecture did have me intrigued; I wanted to see how this was going to end. And what it had to do with me potentially hating Genie.
"Survival."
"Ok, you lost me."
"What are the basic needs to survive? I'll answer that: shelter, food, and water. But it's not just material items that are needed; it's also socialization. Some of the most famous serial killers in the world weren't a part of society, they either preferred to live in isolation or they were never given the chance to join cliques because of their rather 'unique' personalities."
"Ok, what do serial killers have to do with Genie?"
"Well, for one, she greatly enjoys learning about them. I can't tell you how many times I've found her reading books about people like Charles Manson and King Henry the 8th. For such a cheerful girl, that's a pretty grotesque subject. But I digress on that for now. And second, did any of you think that the reason I came out this way was because no one gave me a chance?"
I actually found myself sitting there, thinking about everything. I wanted to argue that it wasn't true. That he was always meant to be this way; but the more I thought about it, the more I realized that he was telling the truth.
From my birth, everybody began telling me about how Pitch Black was completely evil; and this was way before he tried to kill off the Guardians. I just took it all as his feelings of jealousy; jealousy over not being believed in. Yes, we all have jobs to do, but he was just assigned this job; like all of us were.
Did being assigned a job as the Boogey Man automatically make him evil?
No, Hal and Liam may have joined up with him and were his friends; but they were not evil by any standards. They were actually pretty funny guys.
I was by myself for a long time too, my only friend was really Sandy; but it was still something. More than what Pitch had.
Pitch....didn't have anybody. No friends at the beginning. No family. And he was like me, completely clueless.
In my flashback, I could remember that feeling of dread when I learned that no human could see me. That I had died.
Pitch must have felt the exact same thing; and then to be told that he's the Boogeyman and his job was to cause nightmares. He was swept under the bed while the rest of us got to shine and bring joy to everybody.
"So I'll ask once again, Jack Frost, can you blame me for everything I've done?"
"I guess not."
"Wrong answer." He lightly tossed my staff back to me, it landing perfectly on my lap.
"What?! Ok, I give. What the hell do you want me to say?"
"It was Genie that led me to see it all. While I cannot control my environment and others, I can control my own emotions. So she told me once that the right answer is that I'm only partially wrong."
Genie.
To think this whole conversation had been about her. Now I understood why Pitch said I'll still love her or hate her. Once again, she sends me through an emotion of roller coasters. I was mad at Pitch and her earlier.
But now, after having this conversation and thinking about it, I realized that I couldn't be mad at her. She's always been this type of person, trying to be there for everybody. She didn't want to see Pitch as evil, so she took the time to get to know him and his past.
Loving him the whole way, just as she does with me.
"She's got too big of a heart for her own good." Pitch continued on. "But that's probably what made you love her."
"Well, isn't that what made you love her too?"
"Oh no, I mainly liked her at first because of her looks. I thought she was adorable and sexy all at the same time. The more she fought me, the more attracted I was to her. Guess you can say that I was a bit of a masochist, enjoying the chase a little too much. It wasn't until she began living with me that I fell for more than just looks."
"A little messed up Pitch."
"And you're any better?!"
"Hell yeah I am. I've known Genie for years, watching over her and getting to know her. I know all her struggles and all her achievements."
"Jack, you were but a stalker; chasing a dream that you thought would come true. And by some miracle, it did. Yes, you watched over her, but did you get to really know her?"
"You think you know her better than me?! Don't make me laugh Pitch. You probably didn't know that her favorite color is..."
"That's a trick question. She has three favorite colors, black, red, and purple. Isn't it odd that blue and silver are nowhere on that list?!" He was teasing me now.
If he wasn't already, Pitch was getting on my nerves. I'm flat out insulted that he thinks he knows the girl I love better than me. Oh, I'm going to test this.
"Favorite food?"
"Pizza."
"What toppings?"
"As long as it doesn't have pineapple and olives but has extra jalapenos, she'll eat it."
"Favorite movie?"
"The Lion King. And before you ask, she prefers the villains so I think we know who her favorite character is. You're asking me little baby questions Jack. How about I ask you about her?"
"Bring it on Pitch, there isn't one thing I don't know about her."
Before he could continue on with the question, a boomerang came out of nowhere and hitting Pitch on the side of his head; it then turned towards me and managed to strike me in my chest. The force was enough to knock the both of us off the logs and onto our backs.
I'm going to be super sore tomorrow.
"That's enough." Oh great. I recognized that Australian accent anywhere. "You both are acting like a couple of fruit loops." The boomerang returned to its owner, who seemed to be standing up high in the tree.
"I thought you were scared of heights." I teased him while brushing off the site where the boomerang hit me, wincing a little at the sting. Wonder if I'm bleeding.
"A fear of falling and a fear of heights are very different." Bunny jumped down from the tree, landing right next to me. He leaned down and offered me a hand; I grabbed onto it, letting him pull me back up to my feet.
There were no longer hard feelings between the two of us. We'd grieved together and moved on.
"Should we be expecting the rest of the Scooby gang?" Pitch was already up on his feet; his hands tucked into his pants pockets.
"Nah, they're all with Abril. But I couldn't take it anymore. I had to get away from her constant earbashing. Jack this, Pitch that, Genie should do this. Got sick of it. But this isn't much better. All three of you make me want to chunder."
"Nobody cares what you have to say rabbit."
"Too bad. You both need to stop treating the Sheila like she's an item that can be won; or something that needs constant protection. Playing this ridiculous game of who knows her more. If that was how things worked, then Abril would beat you both and she'd be dating Genie. There is no need to have a blue over her."
"We aren't...having a blue over her. Wait, what is a blue?" I could be around this guy for 100 years and I still wouldn't understand his entire lingo. I learned a bit in captivity but not a lot.
"A fight wasn't about to take place. I was actually going to lead Jack to where Genie is and let him have a fair go." Bunny's ears went straight up, guess he was shocked to know that Pitch understood his lingo.
I was shocked too.
"By the way Jack, a fair go means a chance. Yes, you deserve a chance with her, to see if you two are truly meant to be." He walked over to Bunny and I, stopping just inches before me. It kind of makes me mad at how he's taller than me. "I actually advised Genie the same thing. Earlier today, she came to my lair and asked for my opinion. You owe me Frost, I actually vouched for you." He took one of his hands out of his pocket. His index finger was then against my throat, the tip of his nail pressing pretty hard, but not hard enough to draw blood.
"Pitch..."
"You must know one more thing before I step aside; I'm now one of Genie's closest friends. I will hear about any mistake you make. If you so much as make shed one little tear, I will be there to comfort her; and then I will make you wish that you were never born." His yellow eyes seemed to glow brighter at that threat, his nail pressing even further into my throat.
And for some reason, Bunny was just standing by and watching this all go down. Guess he agreed with what Pitch was saying.
"I doubt you'll be the only one in line. From the looks of it, you'll have to beat both Bunny and Abril to the punch."
Genie's POV
I let out a sleepy groan as my eyes began to flutter open. My vision was always blurry when I woke up; it took a few blinks to clear it. I had been expecting to see Pitch right next to me, since I knew I had fallen asleep at his place while watching a movie.
Instead of Pitch's yellow eyes, I found bright blue eyes staring down at me; my head was placed on his lap and a cool hand was placed over my forehead.
"Morning." He smiled down at me.
"What the...Jack!" I shot up from my position, almost making me fall off the couch. "When did you...How did you..."
"Wow, you're a deep sleeper. You didn't even flinch when I lifted your head to place on my lap. I've been here for like 2 hours now."
"I've been asleep for over two hours?!" I looked around the lair. "Hey, where's Pitch?"
"He and Bunny are around here somewhere."
"Bunny's here too.....does that mean Abril is here?" I looked around the room in every direction, expecting to see my April fool's friend jump out and continue to scold me on how I was taking too long with my decision.
"No, she's still up at North's. Pitch brought me here, actually." Pitch had been the one to bring Jack here, which means that he told Jack everything. It didn't matter; there was no reason for me to run.
I had my answer.
"Yeah Jack, about that..."
"Can I speak first?" I was about to insist that I'd be the one first, since I finally had a clear answer for his question. But the look in his eyes made me stop. It seemed like he was silently begging me to let him talk first. He had something important to tell me.
"Sure."
"So, I wanted to say that I'm sorry for all the stuff you've been going through because of me. Abril, Mother Nature, even Cupid. It's really not fair to you. I would love it if you gave me a chance Genie, but only if you really want to. If you don't think it'll work between us, then I respect your decision."
I was completely taken back by what Jack was saying.
Here was the guy who has been crushing on me for years, who risked everything to save me, who watched over my family, who wanted nothing more than to call me his girlfriend; saying that if I said no, he'd still respect my wishes.
He was also giving me a chance.
"Well, actually, I was going to come find you after I had calmed down. I wanted to say Yes to your question."
"Now before you give me an ans....did you just say yes?"
"Is there an echo in here? Yes, Yes Jack. I want to give us a chance. I've been so scared because of..." He cut me off by throwing his staff behind him and throwing himself at me. He wrapped me up tight in his arms.
"I know you're scared. But don't think about the past anymore. I've moved on, and you should also. In fact, why don't we forget it all and move on together?"
I let out a breath of utter relief, all the tension in my body left with that breath. I let myself relax in Jack's arms for the first time in what felt like forever.
"I'd like that a lot Jack."
Pitch's POV
The bunny and I leaned against the wall furthest away from the now happy couple. I tried really hard to keep the envy from rearing its ugly head; but it was pretty hard. So badly, I wanted to run over there and pull them apart. I wanted to tell Jack to back off and that Genie deserved better.
Even if it wasn't me.
But that's not what a good friend would do.
So with a heavy heart, I hung back.
From here, I could see Jack bounce over to hug Genie. She returned the hug with just as much gusto.
"Ouch, that hurts." Bunny was tossing one of his boomerangs up in to the air and letting it fall directly into his hand. His eyes were also locked on the now happy couple.
"Oh yes, I forgot about that. You've had feelings for our Genie as well." He didn't answer me; all he did was nod his head. "In a way, you're lucky. You don't have to deal with the hardship of losing something that good."
"No, but I do have to deal with the hardship that I'll never know what it felt like."
"Trust me, not knowing is better to knowing and losing." We continued to watch Jack and Genie, even when the two of them started to kiss.
"Think they'll last?"
"Maybe yes, maybe no. Nobody knows, not even Man in Moon."
60 years later
Genie's POV
I knew it would happen one day. I've always known, but it didn't make it any easier. How Tooth, North, Bunny, Sandy, and even Abril can handle it is beyond me. But it made grateful that they were better at handling it; because it gave me the support I desperately needed right now.
The most important people in my life stood around me; I stood in the middle of Pitch and Jack I was clutching several bouquets of flowers in my hands.
"They all lived good lives." Jack mumbled to me, his empty hand reach over to rub my back. Pitch did the same thing.
We stood in a graveyard, right after Witching Hour. It was the best time to come since all the delinquents who liked to hang here decide to head home around this time.
"I know they did....but still..." I couldn't stop myself from crying once more, my eyes stinging once more. It was so surreal to be back in this place after so long; being forced to say good bye to the last remaining part of my family.
Sophie was the last one to go; just as it was suppose to be. She was the youngest, after all.
"Rest in Peace, little ankle biter." I heard Bunny whisper before breaking out into small sobs. He was the closest to Sophie out of the Guardians; I know this was hard for him as well.
I took a deep breath before kneeling down on the ground and placing the flowers on the family burial plots. One bouquet for each member.
"Mom, Dad, Jaime, and Sophie- you're all together once again. I'm not sure if I'll ever be joining you; after all, my job keeps me away a lot." Despite my crying, I was able to let out a small chuckle at my wrongly timed joke; the others joining me. Abril pushed past Pitch to kneel down next to me.
"But don't worry guys; we'll keep an eye on our nieces and nephews." I smiled up at Abril, completely understanding what she meant by that.
*Flashback*
"So I was thinking that today, we'd go pay a visit to Jaime."
"Say what?!"
Jack and I had been peacefully lying in his bed together, his arm wrapped around my shoulders as he continued to nuzzle his nose into my neck. I had been in the middle of reading a good book that Pitch had lent me; something about nightmares and their interpretations.
"Why the shock? I'm sure he'd be ecstatic to see us." He grabbed onto my bookmark that I had placed on the bed and put in right on the last page I read. "It'd be fun."
"Well, it would be fun if there wasn't a little itty bitey problem." I closed the book before placing it on night stand.
"Like what? He doesn't know you're alive or something?" He chuckled at his own joke, until he noticed that I had a look of guilt on my face. "You mean....you still haven't...but you told me that..."
"I know I told that day I was going to. But when I went, I saw him come out of his house into the yard with a girl and I sort of panicked and left."
"A girl, you say? Did you catch her name?" He began to rub his hands together, probably thinking of way he was going to tease Jaime.
"No Jack, I ran away with my tail between my legs, remember?" I playfully pushed him away from me so that I could scoot off the bed. "You can go visit him, if you want."
"Oh no, you're not getting out of this. You've hidden this for too long from him. We're going and that's that."
"But..."
"No buts." I knew there was no point in arguing. Normally I would, but this was something that did need to be done. It isn't fair to Jaime that he didn't know that I was ok, and that the Guardians had kept their promise to him.
"You're right. Let's go."
"Wait a minute." Jack floated up into the air, heading over to his giant dresser. He opened the very top drawer and pulled out a small camera. He then turned it on and pointed it straight at me. "Would you mind repeating that last statement? It's not often that you tell me I'm right. In fact, I think that's the first time ever."
"Keep this up smart ass and I won't be kissing you for the next millennium."
"Oh, would you look at that? It seems that my camera has run out of batteries." He tossed the camera back into the drawer before shutting it with the curved part of his staff. "Well, we better get going before it gets dark."
"Yeah, that's what I thought." I was waiting for him by the window to his room; we had decided to forgo traveling with the snow globe. Instead, we found it more fun to travel by wind. I pushed open the window before jumping out to catch a current.
Jack soon joined me.
"Hey Wind!" He called out while grabbing onto my hand. "Take us to Jaime's place." And with that, we were off.
Both of us were giggling like little kids as we surfed along the current, occasionally getting tickled by the clouds. Jack would occasionally steal a kiss from me; or I from him. We began to play-wrestle in the air, ending with me climbing onto his back and getting him in a headlock.
"Ok, Uncle, uncle, I give." He lightly tapped the top of my head with his staff; I loosened my grip around his neck but continued to hang on. Like he was giving me a piggy back ride.
"Victory! Genie 100, Jack 0." I teased him, my hands moving from his neck to run along his hair; my legs continued to be wrapped around his waist.
"Yeah yeah, one day I'll get a real number on there. Hey look, we're here." The wind dropped us right out of the sky. Good thing adults didn't really believe in fairy tales anymore, it would have looked so strange seeing 2 people fall from the sky.
We landed in the backyard of Jaime's new bought house; he was getting paid pretty well from the university he was employed with. From the open curtain, I could see Jaime sitting in his living room; his arm was wrapped around the same girl I had seen him walking with.
From the looks of it, it was pretty serious; I wonder if she was living with Jaime also.
"How do you want to do this?" Jack pulled me out of my thoughts. He walked in front of me to block the view, holding onto both of my hands this time. His staff was on the ground right next to his feet. He began to rub my hands with his thumbs, trying hard to be comforting.
But there was nothing comforting about this situation.
I mean, seriously, what was I going to say? 'Hey there Jaime, long time no see. So guess what? I died but came back and now I'm going to be a Guardian. How are you doing?'
"I have no clue Jack. Maybe this was a bad idea." I felt the overwhelming urge to turn around and fly back to the North Pole.
"No no no, this needs to be done. Look, here's what we'll do. I'll tell Jaime I want him to meet my girlfriend. Introduce the two of you, and we'll let it go from there."
"That's a terrible idea."
"Do you have a better one?" We stood in silence for a few minutes, my brain going through different scenarios; but none of them proved to be a better idea. So with a sigh, I just nodded my head and he got right to it.
He released my hands and bent down to grab his staff.
"Do not move from this spot." He wagged his finger at me, pretending that it was scolding. It looks playful, but I knew he was serious. "Your reward will not only be reuniting with your brother, but pizza." He strolled over to the back door, preparing to knock on it.
"I want the thick crust kind then, with extra jalapenos."
"Thick crust no problem, but let's discuss the jalapeños; my stomach still hasn't settled down from last week." He knocked 3 times on the door, paused for a few seconds, then knocked against 3 times. I guess that was their special knock.
I saw Jaime jump up from the sofa in excitement. He turned over to his girlfriend and motioned for her to stay put. He then ran over to the door and practically ripped it off the handles. He yelled out in shock; Jack mimicked his behavior.
They then began to shove each other in a brotherly way before embracing one another. They patted each other a few times on the back before releasing the other.
"Jack! Long time no see. How have you been? Oh hey, come in. There's somebody here I want you to meet. Get this, I met her in my department, she believes in the Santa Claus, Bunny, and the rest of the Guardians also. So I'm more than sure she'll be able to see you."
"That's great buddy." Jaime grabbed onto Jack's arm and tried to pull him into the house. Jack stood firm though, not moving an inch. When Jaime looked over his shoulder to ask him why he wasn't moving, Jack motioned towards me. "But before we do that, there's somebody I want you to meet first."
I had looked down towards the grass, too scared to look Jaime in the eyes.
"Jack, you sly dog."
"Aha, better believe it." Man, it was weird to hear Jaime and Jack talk this way, especially about me. I wonder if Jack felt just as awkward about it.
Jack was by my side in seconds, he was probably able to tell that I was getting ready to fly away. I was getting major 'cold feet'; Jack had to practically keep a hand on my shoulder to keep me from leaving.
Finally, Jaime was standing right in front of me. He held out one of his hands for me to shake.
"Hi, I'm Jaime. It's nice to meet you." Since my head was bowed down, looking down at the grass and at Jaime's hand, my hair was covering my face.
I didn't answer him right away.
"Yeah, she's very shy. Just give her a second." Jack's hand moved from my shoulder to my back, he began to rub up and down my spine.
"Then maybe a handshake is a little too much." Jaime immediately lowered his hand, but he didn't move away from me. Instead, he just put his hands inside his jean pockets and waited for me to talk back.
I had no idea how to start. Surely, he would recognize my voice right away.
The three of us continued to stand outside for what felt like ages. A small part of me started to worry about Jaime's guest.
"Babe..." Jack stopped rubbing my back and I found myself leaning further in towards me, the rubbing was helping me stay calm. Now that it stopped, I felt my stomach begin to cramp up; and my legs began to shake uncontrollably.
"Oh shit, hold on."
Never in my life had I heard Jaime let out a cuss word. Any anxious feeling I had disappeared; my big sister reaction kicked in. I wanted to scold Jaime for saying such words. He may be a grown man now but in my mind, he would always remain that little kid.
"Watch your mouth."
I was no longer looking down at the ground. I was now looking straight at Jaime, who had apparently run into his house to grab a chair. He was already coming out with it when he heard my voice. His body froze, but his hands must have gone numb. All of us jumped at the sound of the chair falling out of his grip and onto the ground.
Jaime's face was one of complete shock, the kind you would make if you saw a ghost. Which in his case, he was. After all, he was told that I was dead.
He wasn't really told a lie; but it wasn't the truth either.
"G-g-g-g..." He couldn't even say my name.
Now he was the one shaking. I took a small step towards him, wanting to rush over and put the chair under him; but he moved backwards with my step.
"Stop!" He shouted.
I did as he said.
"Jaime...."
"Is this some kind of joke, Jack? Because I'm not laughing." His knees finally gave out on him. He fell down onto his knees, his arms hanging limply at his side. His face no longer looked shocked, it now looked angry.
And I didn't blame him one bit.
"I told you this was a bad idea." I glared over at Jack, who gave me a small sympathetic smile before turning his attention back to Jaime.
"No Jaime, this isn't a joke. She's real."
"But she's...How...I can't handle this." Jaime somehow found the strength to stand back up; he quickly turned around and ran into his house.
From outside, I could hear him run up the stairs and slam the door. He was either inside his bedroom or inside the bathroom, curled up in the tub. Those were always his two favorite places to go hide when he was upset or needed to cry.
I could also hear his guest call out to him. She didn't follow him up the stairs thought.
"I'll go talk to him." Jack placed his index finger under my chin to lift up my face towards him. "Don't worry about it."
"Easy for you to say. He's not your brother." I was still glaring at Jack, absolutely furious at myself for letting him talk me into doing this.
"Maybe not. But he is my best friend, and as Pitch always says 'what are friends for'."
"Wow, now you're quoting Pitch Black."
"Yeah, isn't that something? Please don't tell him; I'll never hear the end of it." He leaned down to place a quick chaste kiss on my lips. "Why don't you try to calm down the girl?"
"I don't think so. Jaime may not want me in his house."
"I doubt he'll mind. Besides, it's getting dark."
"Since when has that bothered you?"
"It doesn't. I'm just running out of reasons to make you get your sexy ass inside."
"Jack, be serious!"
"I am serious, you have a sexy ass." I placed my hands on Jack's chest, teasingly running them down to his stomach and then up again to his shoulders; once they were there, I gathered my strength and pushed him away from me.
"Get going." Jack blew me a kiss before flying up to an open window on the 2nd floor. He waved at me before flying inside and closing the window behind him.
I took a deep breath before walking into the house.
The girl Jaime had over was standing at the bottom of the stairs. She had her hands clasped together over her chest; her eyes were tearing up as she called out to Jaime.
"Give him a minute. He just got the shock of his life." I closed the door behind me; once that was done; I walked over to the couch and sat down in Jaime's spot. She jumped slightly the sound of my voice.
Guess Jaime wasn't kidding when he said she believed. From the look of it, she could not only hear me but see me.
"But..."
"Tell me, how would you react if you just found out that your sister, who supposedly died years ago, showed up at your doorstep?"
She was immediately quiet. I felt the spot next to me dip down as she took her seat.
"He said your name when he ran up the stairs. Are you really her?" I leaned down, placing my elbows on my knees; my hands ran through strands of my hair, pulling some of them in stress.
"Yes." I muttered.
From upstairs, we could hear some mumbling, Jack and Jaime were talking. About what, neither of us had an idea.
"I'm Josie." I looked over to her, finally getting a good look at her face.
Dirty blond hair, light green eyes, olive colored skin, red lips, and a big smile to boot. In a way, she looked very familiar.
She is beautiful. Jaime found himself a pretty girl, I wonder if her personality matched.
"Wish we could have met in a better environment Josie."
"Me too." She mumbled, taking the remote next to her and turning up the volume. She wanted to be sure that Jaime and Jack had complete privacy.
"I told Jack it was a mistake coming here." I don't know what made me continue talking to her; I would have been content with just sitting here in silence. But I needed to say something.
Before she could speak, we heard a knock coming from the back door. It was that weird 3 knock, wait, then 3 more knocks.
Oh boy, I wonder who Jack called after.
"One second." I stood up from the couch and went to answer the door. "Hey Abril."
"Jack said it was an emergency and I had to get over here ASAP. What happened? Who's dying? Is there food?" I stood aside, allowing her inside.
I hope Jack got Jaime's permission for this.
"No one is dying. Pretty sure there's food, and I just revealed myself to Jaime who I am sure hates me with all his heart.
Abril had already begun raiding the fridge, pulling out some bread, meat, cheese, and condiments.
"Want one?"
"Sure." She placed everything on the table and began to assemble our food. "Better make one more. Jaime's girlfriend is here."
"Josie?!" Abril had dropped whatever was in her hands and ran into the living room; it was soon filled with two girls squealing their heads off.
Jack and Jaime ran down from upstairs, Jack holding his staff and Jaime holding a baseball bat. I had rushed into the living room also.
I saw Josie and Abril hugging each other while jumping in circles.
"I told you he'd never be able to resist." Abril exclaimed when they finally stopped jumping.
"You were so right sis, worked like a charm." She flung her hair over her shoulder.
"SIS?!" Jack, Jaime, and I yelled out in unison.
"Your sister's an Immortal?!"
"You're related to Abril?!"
"What worked like a charm?!"
All of us yelled out questions out loud at the same time also, Josie and Abril didn't know who to answer first. They took a look at each other and then nodded.
"You order the pizza; I'll get the drinks and dessert." Josie walked towards the door, grabbing her purse and taking out some car keys.
"Wait a minute." Jack tried to stop Josie, Jaime had yet to lower his bat.
"Trust me, this will all go better with greasy food and alcohol. Any request?"
*End Flashback*
Our evening was spent eating the pizza and drinking. Jaime had refused to say one word to me until he was pretty drunk.
The things he yelled at me should not be repeated, they were very vulgar and full of anger. I didn't blame him one bit. At one point, I had even told me that all he had to do was wish me out of his life, and I'd leave him alone forever.
Not just because that was my power, but because I respected his wishes. I even told him I would request that Man in Moon would erase any memory of me from his and Josie's mind to make it easier on them.
It shocked me when Jaime broke down crying while still holding his wine glass. He had dropped his head onto the table and mumbled about how he didn't want to lose his big sister again.
I instructed Josie to take Jaime to his bedroom, all the wine was going to make him crash any second. Abril then told them that we'd be spending the night to continue the conversation first thing in the morning.
Jack agreed so I had no way of leaving again.
The next morning, Jaime marched into the kitchen; I had been sitting at the table with Josie, Abri, and Jack, all of us drinking a cup of coffee and enjoying some cake. He walked right over to me at my chair.
I had been expecting him to slap me.
Instead, he dropped down onto his knees and began crying in my lap. At first I thought he was still drunk.
He confessed that he was completely pissed off at me, but didn't want me to disappear from his life again. He made me pinky promise him that I'd be there for now on and that I had to go with him that day to see Sophie.
Now that wasn't nearly as dramatic as it had been with Jaime. Apparently, Sophie was still in close contact with Bunny, and he had let it slip that I was alive. She wasn't even mad; instead thrilled that I'd be there to one day see her get married.
I had to draw the line when it came to seeing our parents, there was no way they'd be able to see me since they didn't believe in fairy tales anymore.
I kept my promise to both of them. I watched each one walk down the aisle, I watched each one have their own families, I watched over my nieces and nephews (some I shared with Abril), and I watched those nieces and nephews eventually grow up to have families of their own.
Those were the happy times.
I had to watch the sad times too: the hardest being all of the dying before my eyes.
Unfortunately, that was the last relationship among them. Their grandchildren stopped believing, and soon I was a ghost once again. I was known as the aunt that had been mysteriously murdered, my case had gone cold.
And would remain cold for years to come.
It was funny how something morbid as death can make you start reminiscing all the good and bad times. I glanced over at Jack, who was responsible for a majority of them with me. We had more good times than bad.
*Flashback*
"So have you and Jack done it yet?" I began to choke on my chocolate milk, some of it went down the wrong tube while the rest I spit out onto the kitchen table. I was now coughing and lightly tapping my chest; the milk coming up felt like it was burning my esophagus.
How the hell could Abril ask me that while we were eating breakfast?!
Thankfully it was just me and her here. The other Guardians were off doing their jobs. It was Christmas Eve so things were in full swing. North had asked Bunny, Tooth, Sandy, and Jack to help him out with the preparations for his big night.
Abril and I had offered to help but North told us that we should rest up; since we had been busy all day cooking for not only the Guardians but also the elves and yetis. We started right at 6 am and it was now 2 pm; that was 8 hours of non-stop cooking. And we were still planning to do more.
Dinner was currently in the oven, but we had also been working on dessert and for the huge Christmas banquet tomorrow. North always liked to celebrate his successful deliveries by having a huge feast.
The Guardians were thrilled that Abril and I had joined them; because now the feast would have actual food and not just sweets.
"Have you no shame?" I questioned Abril while I stood over the kitchen sink, still coughing up a lung.
"Not when it comes to sex. After all, it's only a natural need. Plus, Jack has been acting very stiff lately, if you know what I mean." I'm pretty sure she had wiggled her eyebrows at me.
"No no no, I don't need to hear you talk this way about my boyfriend." My body finally calmed down, letting me take in a few deep breaths.
"Then tell your boyfriend to quit coming to me and complaining of how sexual frustrated he is. Seriously, that's all I ever hear. You know he's looking forward to the day you finally decide to have sex."
The oven's timer finally rang; the ham was ready. Since I was the one closest to the over, I pulled out the ham while Abril grabbed a couple trays of biscuits and threw them into the oven right after me.
"Before we continue this conversation, let me think. Ham, check. Loaded mashed potatoes, check. Green bean casserole, check. Spicy stuffing, check. All that's left are the biscuits, cookies, and pies."
The two of us returned to the kitchen table, Abril was kind enough to pour me another glass of chocolate milk, since my original one had been wasted.
"Still can't believe that Bunny doesn't like cranberry sauce." Abril let out a small sigh. "Why do I have a crush on him again?"
Yup, the spirit of April fool's was crushing hard on the spirit of Easter. And when I say crushing, I mean crushing. She would always blush when he entered the room, or when he gave her a quick hello.
It was both adorable and hysterical. Abril was the most confident person I knew and she was being reduced to a shy schoolgirl by the Easter Bunny.
"Because he has a sexy Australian accent that reminds you of Hugh Jackman?"
"Oh right." She nodded her head and went silent, thinking about Bunny's accent. She gave out a dreamy sigh. "But enough about me and back to you, when are you planning it?"
She had been referring to the promise that Jack made to me when we first began dating. It was no secret that I wasn't a virgin; and Jack was a little embarrassed that he was. He had made a promise that he would let me be the one to initiate sex.
Whenever I was ready.
Truth is, I've been ready for quite some time now. But Jack was still a little uneasy. I mean, the guy freaked out the first time I had given him a hand job. And he never went further than kissing my lips and my neck.
It wasn't like he hasn't felt me up in the past, but now he was super nervous about it. For a guy forever stuck in a stage of horniness and puberty, he wasn't that eager to jump into bed with me.
"Well, actually, I was planning for....tomorrow." I whispered the last part. There was no point in keeping any secrets from Abril.
"Tomorrow, as in Christmas?!" She squealed out loud.
"Shhhh, keep your voice down." She covered her mouth but continued squealing. We waited a few more seconds to see if anybody would come in. Thankfully they were too busy so we still had some isolation.
"But it's so cute and romantic." She lowered her hands, whispering that last phrase.
"I guess so. I just wanted to make it special for Jack, since it would be his first time."
"It would have been special for him anyway. Since it's with you. He's waited for you for so long."
"Yeah, I know. But don't you dare tell him anything!"
"Don't worry, I won't." She winked.
Suddenly an idea had popped into my head; I knew a way that Abril could help me out in this situation.
"And since you know everything now, I'm going to recruit you to help me out." The over timer went off once more. I went out taking out the biscuits and switching them with both the pies and the cookies.
"Genie, I like you and all but not like that. So I'm going to have to say no to a threesome." I placed the hot tray in front of Abril, who went about putting them into the bread basket.
"Oh, now that's a shame. But that's not what I was going to ask."
"I know, just teasing you. So what does Genie wish for me to do?"
We soon heard footstep in the hallway, so I quickly whispered my favor into Abril's ear. I didn't need her to give me a verbal response to know that she agreed.
The evening passed by in a blur, we had all eaten dinner and settled into our rooms. Abril and I no longer shared one, I had long moved in with Jack. We would spend our time together cuddling in bed. I would read a book out loud and he would play with strands of my hair.
Just like the evening, Christmas was a blur as well. The breakfast buffet Abril and I had lain out was gone in a matter of seconds; North helped himself to thirds out of the whole thing.
All of us spent the day circled around the globe, exchanging gifts with one another. I had tried to trick Abril and Bunny by getting them under the mistletoe together; but it didn't work. Oh well, I'd worry about them later.
Now, it was all about Jack and me.
It came time for Abril to do the thing I asked her to do: Keep Jack busy. This was not an easy thing to do. Especially since he always looked forward to our time together.
I prepared the room the best way I could. Courtesy of Mother Nature, I was able to use real flowers; the room was now covered in rose petals and lilacs. I had lit scented candles, a mixture of mint and lavender filled the room. The lights were turned off, but the moonlight rays shined perfectly through the window.
It was all perfect.
I sat on top of the bed, my legs dangling off the side, waiting for Jack to come through that day. My heart was beating fast, knowing how he was going to react to my outfit. I was super excited; the thoughts of me having complete control over Jack sent my kinky mind into overload.
"I swear..." I could hear Jack's voice outside the room. The door knob twisted slowly; Jack pushed it open, his face still looking off to the side. "If you ask me one more time which boy band I think is better Abril, I'm going to...." His voice died off as he noticed the room and my appearance.
The door slowly shut itself, Jack's eyes never leaving my body.
I was wearing the exact same sleeveless red Christmas dress that I wore in my picture with Jaime and Sophie from years ago. It was the one picture that Jaime always kept; Jack had told me of the time that Jaime was holding it close.
And how much he loved that dress on me and hoped I'd wear it.
Sophie had been nice enough to keep it for me; so I just asked for it back.
"Genie... What....um...Wow..." Jack stumbled over multiple words; he didn't know how to react to this.
When all of us were together earlier, no one had noticed that I didn't give Jack a physical gift; except him. But I had just told him that it would be better to give it to him in private.
He had no idea that my gift to him was me.
"Merry Christmas Jack." I swung my legs as I jumped off the bed. His back hit the door as I walked over to him. I placed my hands on his chest, pushing him even more against the door. Leaning in closer to him, my hands moved lower to his stomach as my breasts rubbed up against his chest.
Jack's eyes closed as his head leaned back against the door, his mouth opened into a silent moan. If he was acting this way with just a feel of my breasts against his chest, I can only imagine how he'll react when we get to the main event.
"I wore this dress special for you." I whispered into his ear before licking the outer shell of it with the tip of my tongue. He dropped his staff onto the floor and his hands grasped onto my waist to pull me closer.
I could feel his erection straining against his pants, pushing into my stomach.
My hands moved from his stomach to his pants, unbuttoning them and moving the zipper down to release a little tension. Once the zipper was all the way down, I pushed his pants along with his underwear down his legs until they were piled together on the floor.
Jack's face came towards mine, we began to kiss frantically while my hand gave his shaft a gentle squeeze. As our kissing increasing, my hands began to pump him, occasionally stopping to rub my thumb over his head.
Reluctantly, I pulled myself away from his; he grabbed onto the back of my head, preventing me from moving further.
"We have all night Jack, No need to rush anything." With my free hand, I was able to get him to release my hair before falling onto my knees in front of him. My hands were now at his base, still pumping him; with my eyes locked on his, I gave him my most seductive grin before leaning forward and blowing hot air onto his shaft.
"Genie." He moaned out my name. His hands were plastered against the door.
"Tonight is all about you Jack. So enjoy yourself." With that being said, I took him whole into my mouth.
His body seized up, never knowing how it felt to have something moist and hot around his dick. He moaned out loud several times, and all I was doing was letting it sit in my mouth with my tongue on the underside.
I wanted him to get use to the feeling before continuing.
Eventually, I began to move my tongue around his shaft while humming lightly, the vibration causing his balls to tighten up.
Yes, I knew he wouldn't last long like this.
My hands began to rub up and down his thighs as I sucked him like our lives depended on it. Sometimes I would release his shaft a little until just the tip remained in my mouth. Then plunge forwards, all my rolling his balls in my hands.
Within minutes, he cummed.
Just like that, he became hard again after he saw me swallow his seeds without spilling a drop.
When I released him from my mouth, one of his hands came down to rub against my cheek. It was so innocent and sweet.
"That was just the beginning. Why don't you take off that sweater and go lay down on the bed?" Even though it was in the form of a question, he knew it was more of a command.
Hastily, he reached down to pull his sweater off his body, leaving him totally naked in front of me. I stood up and stepped to the side, pushing him towards the bed.
Like I had demanded, he laid down full on his back. I climbed onto the bed after him; except of lying down, I stood over him, right at his hip.
"Tell me what to do Jack." I teasingly placed my fingers into my dress and let it slide down slightly, showing just the top part of my breasts. "I am your gift this Christmas, play with me."
"Take off your dress." He finally found his voice. The soft demand made my core burn even more. I listened to him, fully pulling down my dress. To his shock, I wore nothing underneath it. With a flick of my foot, my dress was now on the floor with his clothes.
I slowly sank down to my knees, his dick pressing into my ass. He took a deep breath at this new feeling. I grabbed onto both his wrists and brought his hands to my stomach before moving them up to cup my breasts.
"So soft." He mumbled. I slid up his body a little further, my breast now resting fully in his hands.
He squeezed and twisted them, enjoying the noises that I was now making. When he began to pinch my nipples, my moans got even louder; especially when he pinched and twisted my left one.
"Jack. Oh Jack, do that again, Please." I moaned. He complied with my request.
"Now..." He began, his hands falling off my breast; I let out a small whine as he did that. "I want..." Even in the dark room, I was able to see his face blushing a bright red.
"Don't be embarrassed Jack. I told you, tell me what to do. Your wish is my command. Whatever you want of me."
"Ok..." He took a deep breath and blew it out. "I want to taste you." I had begun to climb off of him to switch positions, thinking that he wanted me on my back. He grabbed onto my hips to keep me right where I was. "No, not like that."
His hands moved to behind my thighs and began to pull me forward; letting him guide my body the way he wanted.
Now I was practically sitting on his face, my sex right above his mouth.
Guess he's been reading some of mine and Abril's romantic novels or random fan fictions on the internet. This was a pretty common scene everybody liked to use.
But I wasn't complaining; I actually enjoyed looking down at him, seeing him practically drool over the thought of tasting my core.
My body jerked and I let out a sudden gasp when I felt his cold breath along my clit.
"Finally." I heard him whisper before feeling a cold flick of his tongue along my clit. I gasped out loud once more and my hands launched forward to grab onto the headboard. It hadn't dawned on me that everything about Jack would be cold, even his tongue.
It should have hurt, but instead, it felt amazing.
His cool tongue and mouth against my hot folds: a match made in heaven.
"Wow." His arms wrapped around my tights and pulled me down further. I had resisted at first, terrified that I would somehow suffocate him. Now that would have been an embarrassing yet interesting story to explain to the Guardians.
"More. Need. Want more." If I wasn't wet to begin with, I would be now. That sharp command in his voice was such a turn on.
His strength eventually won against my resistance. My hips fell even lower; Jack's mouth was now fully sucking and flicking my clit.
I let out a variety of moans, groans, and gasps; my toes and fingers curling in pleasure.
He would alternate from using the tip to the width of his tongue; his fingers began to rub along the inside of my thighs, until moving further down where they began to prod against my opening.
Jack let out a small grown of pleasure, causing me to tightening around his fingers. The vibration against my clit was sending me over the edge.
The whole time, my head had been hanging forward, my hair falling over my shoulder and probably onto his face. But I couldn't tell. My eyes were shut tight, letting my other senses take over and become strong.
Especially my sense of feel.
My mouth was wide open, letting out moan and moan, grunt after grunt.
"Jack. Jack, Oh God, don't stop."
I hadn't notice him push two of his fingers into my opening; that was until he found my G-spot.
Without warning, I had cum.
Hard, right onto his face.
He quickly removed his fingers from my hole and replaced it with his tongue. My first orgasm of the night had let me oversensitive. I was practically crying from the intense pleasure I had just felt.
Jack's fingers joined his tongue, all of them pumping into me at once. Occasionally, he would do a scissoring motion, stretching my opening for him.
"Jack...Jack...I need..." It was hard for me to get anything out of my mouth, besides the moans. I wanted to tell him to give me a little break, just to catch my breath.
What happened next was all so fast.
Jack had somehow managed to flip us over to where I was now laying on my back, with my head at the foot of the bed. My hair splattered out in all directions, my hands were placed by the side of my head, being held down against the mattress by his strong grip.
Jack had this wild look on his face. Some of his hair was plastered to his face, being kept there by his sweat. His eyes were glazed over in lust, roaming up and down my body, stopping to look at my breasts that were bouncing from the hard breaths I was taking.
His mouth was wide open, evidence of my cum lingered against the side of his mouth.
"You taste amazing." He said, before letting his tongue slip out to lick off the remaining cum from the corner of his mouth. "But there's one more thing I need to taste before..."
I didn't let him finish speaking. I was able to get my hands out of his grip, my upper body shooting up to capture his lips in a bruising kiss.
Seriously, I wouldn't be surprised if we both had bruises on our faces in the morning from the force of our kissing. My hands wrapped around his neck, his hands buried themselves in my hair, grabbing onto chucks.
Our mouths danced in perfect harmony, only taking seconds to separate before attaching once more. His tongue would tug against mine, pulling it into his mouth. I was able to get a taste of myself.
In a messy dance, I have maneuvered us into a different position. He was sitting on the bed, his legs sprayed out. I was kneeling over his lap, my knees right up against his hip bone.
"I know what you want." I moved one of my hands to my own breast, twisting and tugging at my nipple in a teasing manner. Jack's tongue licked his lips once more, as if he was being offered the most delicious meal in the world.
To him, that's what I probably was.
"Everything about you is just so beautiful." His face came towards my chest, hitting my hand to the side to release my nipple. He wasted no time in nipping on my tit, soon pulling my whole mound into his mouth.
Just like he had done with my clit, he alternated flicking with his tongue and suck. He gave the same attention to my other breast.
The whole time, we kept our eyes locked on one another. His eyes held a whole different look, now full of love.
Admiration
Thankful
Desire
I swear, if he didn't let me ride him soon, I'm going to explode.
"Lay back." I commanded him. He took a moment to let my boob fall out of his mouth before complying with my order. "I'm about to make your most wanted wish come true."
Now I was back over his hips, positioned perfectly above his erect member. I quickly grabbed onto his wrist and moved his hands until they were now placed on my hips.
Slowly, I began to sink down, the head soon buried inside my fold.
"Genie." He gasped out loud, his hips making an involuntary movement of thrusting up; wanting nothing more than to be buried to the hilt.
"Just relax and enjoy." Inch by inch, I slid down until I sat fully in his lap; his dick now completely disappeared into me.
His back arched off the bed, his hips trying to get further into me; thought it was not possible.
"So warm."
"So cold."
We both said in unison. I smiled down at him before I began to slowly rock back and forth on him, my hands came to rest on top of his chest, twisting his nipples.
When I was sure he was ready for more, I rose a little then fell back down.
Jack wanted to keep looking at me, but he couldn't help it. He closed his eyes from the amount of pleasure, the one he had been waiting for this for so long, and it was almost too good for it to be true for him.
I rose against until just the tip was in, and then fell back down.
I did this over and over again, the headboard soon hitting the wall from how hard I was riding him. No doubt everybody could hear us, but I didn't care.
Jack and I were lost in our own world.
"Genie. Genie. Genie." He chanted my name like a mantra. "I won't..."
"I know, just let go. Cum for me Jack. Cum into me, fill me." With those words said, it was like an explosion. His cold seed spilled into me, causing my body to break out in goose bumps.
I stopped bouncing once I felt his seed, completely ignoring my oncoming climax.
Right now, I just wanted to stare down at Jack. He looked so carefree, his chest heaving up and down, his hands still attached to my hips, and his eyes locking on mine once more.
Jack Frost has just lost his virginity.
"I know what you're thinking." He mumbled out loud, his hands releasing their hold on my hip only to rub my thighs. "And I didn't lose it. I just found my paradise."
I let out a small chuckle.
"That was a little corny Jack. Even for you."
"Yeah, I admit, it sounded better in my head. But I noticed something just now."
"Oh, and that is?"
"You didn't cum with me." He sat up, his flaccid dick now alive once more, was still buried inside me.
"Jack, tonight is all about you. I wanted to give you the best gift I could think of." He kissed my cheek before pulling me into a hug. I buried my face in his neck, enjoying the smell of his salty sweat mixed with his natural mint.
"Hate to disappoint, but this wasn't what I wanted." He mumbled.
Once again, I found myself on my back, except my legs were practically bent over my shoulders, Jack leaning far over me.
"I changed my mind. What I want for Christmas is to hear you scream my name to the high heavens; I want to tie you to the bed and have my dirty way with you."
"What a coincidence that I happen to have some handcuffs in the dresser."
"But first, I want you to cum for me."
He began to pump himself in and out of me once more.
"Well..." I said between my grunts and moans. "Good thing we have all night."

"I head home now. Need to recheck list. I here if you need me, Genie." North placed his hand on my shoulder and gave it a strong pat; causing me to almost fall onto the floor from my kneeling position. I gave him a side glance and a smile before he walked off.
I stood up with Abril, both of us brushing off the dirt on our knees and dresses.
"I better go too. Teeth to collect and all." Tooth flew over Jaime's and Sophie's graves, rubbing her hand against the cobblestone. "I'll come back later. I'm sure you two would love to hear about their memories." By their memories, she had meant Jaime and Sophie's grandchildren.
"And sweetie." She flew over to me. I already knew she was going to hug me, so I already had my arms open for her to fly into. "Don't forget to come visit me soon. I miss you."
"I miss you also, Tooth. I'll be sure to come back soon; after all, Baby Tooth owes me a few coins after losing the bet." When we stopped our hug, she held one of her hands close to her mouth, letting out a small chuckle into her first.
"Who would have thought that you would beat her in a teeth collecting contest?"
"I knew!" Abril jumped up and down while waving her hands in a frantic manner. "After all, I bet on her to win. Right, honey bunny?"
"Still say you cheated." Bunny wrapped his arm around Abril's shoulders, which stopped her from bouncing by pulling her closer to him.
I have to admit, the height difference between these two was almost comical, but also incredibly sweet.
Since Abril had been so intent on getting Jack and I together, I had made it my short term goal of getting her together with Bunny. My partner in crime, Jack, had been all to happy to help me with that at the time.
Who would have thought a surprise dinner under a rainbow would have led to this kind of relationship? Abril and Bunny rarely left each other's side, Abril had moved to his warren with him just a month into their relationship.
But was many years ago, and they were still happily together.
I was happy that Bunny was able to find some love out of all this; since he couldn't get it from me.
Well, I do love him; but it's not the same kind of love that I feel for...
"You're going to be ok here, Genie?" Abril was still wrapped up in Bunny's arm, but she reached forward for my hand. I gave her the best smile I could before lunging forward and hugging both her and Bunny.
"I'll be ok guys. I mean, it's all part of the Circle of Life."
"Lion King!" Pitch and Jack yelled out loud at the same time, both of them turning to the other to glare.
"I won that one."
"You're sorely mistaken, Jackie boy. It was I who said it first."
"In your nightmares, Boogey."
"Why you little..."
"Enough." Bunny reached around me to point his boomerang at the two of them; that caused them to shut up immediately.
Neither wanted to be hit with that thing again. And I don't blame them, it hurts a lot. I still have the bump on my head from when I had accidently got in the way during one of the many mock battles Bunny and Jack liked to have.
Abril had been furious, but she couldn't stay mad at Bunny for long. All he had to do was say random Australian words and wiggle his nose to have her melting at his feet.
When Bunny was satisfied, he lowered his boomerang and grabbed onto Abril's hand with his free paw; he patted the ground with his foot and a portal opened up.
The two of them waved at me before jumping in, the hole closing shortly after them.
All that was left was now Jack, Pitch, and I. Sandy had left not long ago, since it was time to bring dreams to China.
Jack and Pitch, two of the most important men in my life.
I still think I'm a horrible person for breaking one of their hearts. But I personally didn't believe that I could be in a polyandrous relationship. Plus, Jack and Pitch both said they didn't want to share me that way with the other.
It wasn't shocking when they heard I didn't like sharing either. It wasn't for me.
"Well, guess I'll head off too." I turned to my departing friend, my heart once again going out to him. Hopefully he'll be lucky like Bunny and find someone who will love him for him. After all, he deserved it.
Everybody deserved that special love
Before I could yell bye to him, he was off. It was still painful for him to see me and my love together. I don't blame him. But everybody agreed that he would have to eventually get over it and move on.
"He'll be alright." The love of my life grabbed onto my hand, our fingers intertwining. We still stood side by side, both of us looking down onto my family's graves.
I still wasn't ready to leave yet; he knows and didn't force me.
"If he was still alive, what do you think he would say? About us?" He questioned. I looked over at my love, chuckling a little about what my brother would say to me and him.
"He'd say I must have developed Stockholm syndrome and that I was crazy to choose you over Jack Frost."
"Little brat." Pitch sneered a little. "Never did come to accept me, did he?"
"Well, it doesn't help that you tried to kill him not once but twice."
"I said I was sorry and begged his forgiveness!"
Josie had once told me that Life doesn't deal you mistakes, and I fully agreed with her. It was no mistake that Jack and I didn't work out. It was no mistake that he had been the one to decide to end it all. It was no mistake that I had loved him. And it was no mistake that my love for Pitch Black was stronger.
It's interesting that I had been the one to break their hearts; but they had been the ones to end the relationships.
"Nobody has come to accept you yet Honey; except me, Sandy, and Sophie. But give it time. After all, it's not every day that a Guardian hooks up with someone who is supposed to be their enemy."
"This is why I still can't understand why you choose me over him." And we were back on that subject. Pitch still found it hard to believe that after everything that was done, I had chosen him.
"Now don't get me wrong, I'm terribly happy to have you with me, back in my life; but Jack was obviously a better choice for you. And I was willing to watch from the shadows."
"While Jack and I have something special, it's nothing compared to what you and I have. Yes, we didn't start off in the best of ways. And yes, maybe I did develop Stockholm syndrome of sorts...."
"That's not funny."
"In a way it is."
"Do be serious now love." He kissed the side of my forehead.
"I am being serious."
"No you're not."
"Look Pitch, I can't explain what made Jack end it. Nor can I explain that love I have for you both. In the end, just accept that I want to be with you. You've proven to me that you changed for the better, and I think that's what made me fall in love with you."
Over the years, Pitch had changed a majority of his ways. While he still had to be doing his job as the Boogey man and scare children, he didn't the job so seriously anymore. He just gave the kids little scares and occasional nightmares.
The Guardians had even begun to accept him more; he and Bunny had become pretty good friends. Probably because of Abril and I.
And the best part of it all, he no longer had an army of Nightmares; he had stopped making them long ago.
"Well then..." He reached into his pocket and pulled out a small black velvet box. "Sophie gave this to me just before her passing. I had wanted her here when I did this; but in a way, she is." He looked over at her grave before falling down onto one knee, his hands opening the box to reveal a white gold ring with a purple stone in the middle.
"Is that..."
"Your mother's ring? It is. Sophie said that I should give it to you, to keep in the family forever. It holds significant meaning to you so I thought that...Well.... Genie, I ask this of you. Will you let me continue protecting you from harm? Will you be mine forever? Will you let me be yours forever?"
I probably looked like a flounder right now, my mouth had dropped open in shock; Pitch has just, in a way, proposed to me.
"Pitch, you don't have to..."
"I want to. Before your family and before Man in Moon, I want us to declare our love for one another. I make a promise to be yours; will you make the same promise to me?"
He didn't need to ask me twice.
"Yes. I promise to be yours forever, Pitch Black." He stood up; the ring was now placed on my finger. "You know, Genie doesn't need protecting anymore." I spoke in the third person to be silly.
He smiled brightly at my antics, or from me accepting his proposal. It was hard to tell in this situation.
"I know you don't. But you said that you were born with a purpose. So was I; and it's amazing to finally know what it is. My purpose it to always protect and love my Genie."
