The Snowstorm

It was snowing when I was heading home from my little hangout spot in the woods. It looked like there was a storm coming. I didn't mind the cold, but if I didn't get home before the storm hit, my parents would kill me.

I started looking at the freshly fallen snow that covered the ground, it was beautiful. Even though it was getting close to dark, the snow still sparkled. I tried to catch a few snowflakes on my tongue. Some might call that a childish thing to do but hey, I was only 13.

I wish it was winter all year. At least it was winter most of the year where I live. I was stepping over a fallen tree when I saw someone. I walked toward him slowly. He looked a couple years older then me. He had white hair, a white long sleeved shirt, brown pants, and... A brown vest? It kind of looks like a vest, but I'm not sure, I've never been good with the names of clothes.

I stared at him for a while, he was facing away from me. I wanted to ask him if he was okay but from the angle I was at I couldn't tell if he was breathing. He looked like he had been freezing to death. So instead of talking to him like a normal person I grabbed the closest thing to me. It was a long stick. I poked him with it and I most have spooked him cause he jumped up and took the stick I was holding.

We stared at each other. "C-can you see me?" he asked.

"Yes." I answered a little confused.

"Can you hear me?"

"Yes..." he seemed excited that I said yes to those obvious questions. He looked at me in the eyes and asked "Do you know who I am?" At first I was going to say no but he did seem somewhat familiar.

I noticed he wasn't wearing shoes, crazy kid. Then I saw frost and snow forming around his feet, I looked up and smiled at him. I knew exactly who he was. "You're Jack Frost, aren't you?" His eyes sparkled like the snow and was full of excitement.

"Yes! That's me! That's my name! You know who I am. How?" Jack asked.

"My father told me stories about you when I was younger." I like how overjoyed he is that I can see him.

He seemed unable to stop smiling at me."What's your name?" he asked me. I opened my mouth to answer but for a bit nothing came out.

"H-Hannah Snowflake." he laughed when I said Snowflake.

"Jack Frost and Hannah Snowflake." I blushed when he said our names together. I don't know why...

"Yeah... Weird huh." I said. "So... you like snowball fights right?" I asked, sure I already knew the answer.

"It's what I live for."

"Great." I quickly started making  snowballs, Jack saw what I was doing and started to make his own. I made about 5 before Jack started the fight. I was nearly covered with snow before I found some cover behind nearby trees. When I thought he wasn't looking I struck.

By the end of the game I was almost frozen from the snowballs, while Jack barely had anything on him. I could have sworn I threw 15 snowballs at him and none of them hit him. As for him throwing snowballs at me, those things are flippin enchanted! Literally none of them missed. He threw like 50!

"That was awesome!" Jack said. He was standing on a tree branch.

"Easy for you to say. You have the upper hand in this game!" I don't like losing if you haven't noticed.

"Ha! Well I think I know who won."

"Shut up Frost." I crossed my arms.

"Looks like someone doesn't like to lose." Jack jumped off the tree. It was then I realized he was still holding the stick I poked him with earlier.

"Why are you still holding that?" I pointed to the long stick in his hand. He looks at me then the stick.

"Oh. Well it's my source of power. Without it I wouldn't be able to fly-"

"You can fly?! That's awesome!" I interrupted him.

"I know right!"

"Anyway, sorry, continue."

He went on. "Right... Well I wouldn't be able to use my ice powers either."

"So basically, without that thing you couldn't do anything? Really? All your power in a stick."

"Technically, it's a staff."

"Whatever." I looked up at the sky and realized it was night. "Oh my gosh! I gotta get home!"

"Man! But we are having so much fun." Jack complained.

"I have to go, but will I see you again?" I asked hoping he'll say yes.

"I'll find you." said before he flew away and disappeared in the night sky. I smiled knowing that for once I had a friend.

Hey guys! Thanks so much for reading the first chapter of my story. Next chapter will be the same story but told from Jack's POV (So don't worry there will be a head to toe description of Hannah too XD). I won't be doing that for all the chapters just some of them. Hannah is the main character. Oh, and the ship name I came up for them is Snowfrost. Their last names sounded better then their first names. Anyway please vote and comment! Thx!
