Chapter One: The move to Burgess
A girl with light blonde hair that was pulled up into a high ponytail and deep blue eyes sighed as she looked out the window as the trees went by.
‘Once I start making friends we have to move again.’ The blonde haired girl thought as house started to slowly show up.
“Are we there yet?” I girl that looked to be around 8 years old with curly brunet hair and chestnut brown eyes asked excitedly as she bounced up and down slightly in her seat.
“Not yet Molly, but we will be in Burgess soon.” The girl’s mother smiled at her youngest daughter.
“Eva, Eva, aren’t you excited?!” Molly, Eva’s little sister asked.
“Of course I am…” She smiled at her little sister and then went back to looking out the window “Just what I want to do is be moving two weeks before Christmas.” She muttered to herself.
About ten minuets after that the family was at their new house in Burgess. Eva’s parents had been slowly moving all of their belongings over to the new house so all of their stuff arrived to the new home but it wasn’t unpacked yet. Eva grabbed her backpack from between her legs and slung it over one shoulder as she got out of the car. She was wearing a Purple and grey running shoes, dark blue jeans, and a black zip up jacket. The house that they were just moving into wasn’t that bad. It was a two story house what pale blue siding and a shingled roof. She went into the house and went right upstairs into her new room. Her room was in the back of the house. It was a decent size room, a bit bigger then her old room except it didn’t really look like it at the moment because of all the boxes scattered across the floor. Her window was close to the big maple tree that was in the back yard and she could see some of the kids playing around having fun in the snow.
After unpacking for about a half an hour, in other words she got her bed made and most of her clothes put away she decided that she wanted to go for a walk and see the town. Might as well, that’s where she was going to be living. When she got downstairs she saw that there was another family here. He must have been their new neighbors.
“Oh Eva good timing these are our neighbors the Bennett’s.” Her father stated.
“Hi I’m Jamie, and this is my little sister Sophie.” Jamie smiled and held out his hand.
Eva smiled at him and took his hand shook it. “It’s nice to meet you too Jamie, and same with you Sophie.” Eva said and lightly poked Sophie on the nose.
“Jamie, why don’t you and Sophie take Molly out and play in the snow. I’m sure she would like that after that car ride.” Jamie’s mom suggested.
“Oh, yes, can I mom, please, please, please…” Molly begged tugging on her mother’s sleeve.
“Of course honey.” Their mom answered.
“Yea!!” Molly shouted and the three of them ran out the door.
“Oh Eva can you take Molly her hat?” Eva’s father asked.
“Sure.” Eva nodded and grabbed Molly’s hat and walked out the door. “Don’t need Jack Frost nipping at her nose.” Eva laughed under her breath closing the door behind her.
As Eva walked over to her little sister and her two new neighbors she saw them laughing and playing with out a care in the world. “Molly, you forgot your hat.” Eva said loud enough for her sister to hear. Molly ran over and got her hat.
“Eva you have to meet Jack Frost!” Molly said jumping up and down. “He’s a lot of fun.”
“I’m sure he is. Now go on and have a good time.” Eva said pushing her little sister along gently.
Eva started walking in the other direction from the kids playing. Molly ran back over to Jamie, Sophie, and her new friend. A boy that looked to be around 17 years old with snow white hair and ice blue eyes.
“Where is Eva going Molly?” Jamie asked.
“I think she’s going to a walk. Maybe she’ll come over and meet you later Jack.” Molly smiled putting on her hat.
Jack Frost watched Eva as she walked away her light blonde hair swayed from side to side as she walked further and further away. “Who is she?” Jack asked.
“That’s my older sister Eva. She acts like she was happy to move but I could tell that she’s not.” Molly answered. “I just want her to have some fun again.” Molly stated lowering her head to look at the ground.
“Hey Molly don’t worry, I’m the guardian of fun.” Jack kneeled down and placed his hands on her shoulders.
“Will you really?!” Molly said picking her head up with bright eyes.
“Of course I will help with that. All we just have to do it get her to play a game.” Jack smiled at her.
“Shouldn’t we wait till tomorrow though, it’s getting late.” Jamie suggested as he saw his parents coming out of Molly and Eva’s new house.
Jack looked over to where Jamie was looking, “That would probably be a good idea.” Jack agreed.
“Jamie, Sophie, ten minuets then head inside.” Their mother called as they were walking over to the house.
“Okay mom.” Jamie yelled back.
~With Eva~
“Why did we have to move?” Eva muttered to herself and kicked some snow as she walked along a dirt path. “I’m in my junior year of high school…this isn’t fair!” She kicked a stone and ended up slipping on a patch of ice. She slid down the hill and onto a solid small lake.
“Well that was anti climatic, as well as that hurt a bit.” Eva laughed slightly sitting up and rubbing her back. She looked up at the sky and saw that the sun was setting. “I guess I should be getting back to make sure that I haven’t gotten hurt too badly.” Eva muttered standing up.
The ice cracked under her feet, “You have to be joking.” She sighed looking down at the ice and the cracks that were starting to stretch away from her.
