*Jamie's P.o.V.*

"Whew, man, finally!" I exclaim, "Winter break is here!"

Even if I was glad for the break from school, I couldn't help be feel a bit down. Winter always reminds me of Jack Frost.

Why did he stop visiting? It's been so long, like what? 5 years?

Thinking that made feel even worse. I guess I didn't realize just how much I missed him.

"Ya, I know right! So glad! I needed a break" Caleb said, waking me from my thoughts. "What are you going to do over the break, Jamie?"

Caleb was one of my closest friends ever since childhood. We were pretty close and I told him everything. Well almost everything.

"I'm not sure. I guess just spending time with family. I don't think we have any travel plans." I reply, fully knowing my parents and Sophie are spending the break away, but not me.

"That's typical, for the Christmas break."

"Ya, I guess so."

"Well, see you after the break, I have family outside the city that's we're visiting."

"Alright, see ya."

As Caleb leaves, I return to my thoughts about Jack and the other Guardians. Christmas. *sigh* That means Santa. I wonder what I'll get as a believer.

A rush of cold air blow through my hair. I straighten up.

There was something about that gust of wind, it just seemed... Magical.

Maybe it was just me still thinking about the Guardians.

But I can't help but feel that something more is happening.

I walk home rather quickly and eagerly drop onto my bed, wanting rest. I decide to pack it in early and get changed into my pajamas and get under the covers. But no matter what I do I can't seem to sleep. My mind is restless with the Guardians in mind. I get up and go downstairs to the kitchen and pour myself a glass of water. After I've finished drinking, I go back to my room.

A sudden chill came from my room. I hug myself to try to keep warm. Then I see him, in his blue hoodie and rough brown khakis with hair as white as freshly fallen snow, sitting on my window sill.

"Jack..." I breath, barely a whisper, as a smile creeps onto my lips.
