A/N: I think I should really continue the story after all... Sorry for being such an ass at my previous note. I know you're all mad at me and I deserve it. Sooo this is the continuation (which is already written like, 2 months ago but I still think it's crap up until now). Sorry for the long wait and thank you all for your supports. Now if you excuse me *hides in the corner*
"Hello, Jack." Pitch appeared once again in Jack's dream with his usual sly grin on his grey skin.
"Pitch!" Jack, with his clenched teeth glared at him who was floating rather high above him, and strangely Jack couldn't fly in the dream even if he wanted to punch the man right in the face. He groaned and cursed at the bad dream and feeling a bit humiliated because he had to look up at him, just so he could feel high and mighty here.
"Oh Jack. Don't shot dagger at me like that. I'm giving you good news." A smirk plastered wider on his face.
"Get straight to the point!" The winter spirit said, his tone didn't sound so nice towards him and Pitch noticed a slight bit of fear in his tone even though his angriness covered most of it.
"Okay okay calm down, Jack. Good thing is, you'll get your body back and you can touch each other again. Congratulations."
Jack could feel the burden on his shoulder got off of him a bit and he let out a soft sigh, "And what about the side effect you were talking about?"
"You'll see soon." He chuckled maliciously and deeply, "You can thank me later." he continued and then disappeared from Jack's dream before Jack could continue his bunch of questions he still wanted to ask.
Later that morning...
Jack yawned as he stretched his arms up to the air to relax his sore muscles from sleeping in the same position all night, took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly. Luckily he could sleep well even after Pitch's appearance in his dream. Jack smiled to know his hands, his body, and his usual self back. Despite looking at the person beside him who was still sleeping peacefully, the young spirit dragged his lazy feet to the bathroom, eyes still heavy even though he had a full seven or so hours of sleep. Turning the doorknob and pushed the mahogany door in front of him, his eyes were wide and they were locked to his own reflection in the mirror. He couldn't believe of what emerged on his head.
"Bunny ears!" he gasped in surprise, his sleepiness was gone in an instant as if it was being swept by the wind. He felt something strange on his back too, and he had a total look of horror when he saw a fluffy rabbit tail on his back. "H-how come I have these ears and tail?" The question haunted his mind and he knew just who to blame. So this was the side effect Pitch told him about… But why bunny ears and tail? He thought and quickly rushed back to the room and saw Bunny's ears snuck out of the blanket, while his body was curled like a ball, covered with a thick blanket to keep him warm.
"You're so bloody loud…" Bunny groaned, still closing his eyes without even bothering to look at Jack who was still in state of shock. Yesterday was a long, tiring day although what they did was literally just masturbating and some gathering with the other guardians. He just felt like sleeping all day if he could. "What's the matter?" he muttered under his breath, but didn't show his face because the room was pretty frigid at that time.
"Bunny! Look!" Jack said and pointed at his newfound ears with his index fingers. Grunting, he finally shoved the blanket off to show his face, squinting at Jack. And again, the winter spirit gave a pure face of shock when he saw Bunny's face.
A human. Not to mention, with rabbit ears on his head just like him.
"Bunny!?" He shouted, jaw hung open for a mere seconds but quickly closed it again. He jumped to the bed and scrutinized Bunny's face with his blue eyes.
"Jack?!" The same with his partner, Bunny gave him a surprised, why-the-heck-you-got-bunny-ears face. He didn't aware of his own problem of turning into a human because he was too focused on Jack's white rabbit ears.
Jack swore, he never saw anything like him before. He was gorgeously handsome and hot. A very charming man in his mid thirty with his skin a bit tanned. He got blue grayish short hair and it suited him perfectly- at least that was what Jack thought. If he had to describe him in one name, then it would be Hugh Jackman.
"Wow. You're... absolutely handsome." Jack didn't notice that he almost swooned, admiring each curve on Bunny's face.
"What are ya talking about all of a sudden?" The older guardian, still not aware of his current state, asked with his dark eyebrows raised although his cheeks started to get burned a little.
The youth climbed up the bed and sat in front of his mate just to see his face closer.
"You." Jack placed both of his palm on the older one's face and made him to shudder because of his cold hands. "Are so damn hot when you're a human." He continued to stare deeply at Bunny.
"Human?" he asked, and then he looked down to find that now he had hands, human hands, and not paws.
"What the-" He shifted his hands and fingers and scanned at them, his green eyes startled widely. Jack climbed down the bed and shoved the blanket that covered the lower part of Bunny's body, blushing a bit when he found that the Guardian of Hope wasn't wearing anything, just as he expected, and his breath hitched.
"Heck, mate! Don't just suddenly take my blanket off!" Bunny pulled the blanket to cover his naked body again. Now his face turned red and curls started to show on his forehead, his rabbit ears were flat to the back of his head. He's so cute, Jack thought.
"Uh- yeah, sorry. But you must get up and look at the mirror now." Jack suggested. Bunny, with his sour- however irresistible- face, climbed off the bed without bothering to take the sheet off from his body. His toes touched the floor and coldness started to creep on him. He was freezing, not to mention, embarrassed to show his fur-less body now. That said, he preferably be in his warm and comfortable warren than to be there.
They both made their way towards the bathroom, and how surprised Bunny was when he stared at the mirror, his pupils dilated.
One second. Two second. Three second. A minute.
"Bloody hell!" The older man cursed. It took him long enough to respond.
"I know, right? You're one hell of a handsome man." Jack chuckled, locked the door behind him and leaned against it, crossing his arms in front of his chest feeling very proud of his lover.
"Is this the side effect Pitch was implying?" He asked, green eyes never escaped the mirror, admiring himself.
"I think so." Jack answered.
"We must tell the others."
"Yeah, but first.." Jack walked about two steps forward and hugged Bunny from behind. "I must recharge."
The other man blushed, feeling the chill running through his spine. "J-jack." He glanced at his back and caught the smaller man smirking.
"Where's my morning kiss?" The teen let go of him, and instantly Bunny turned his back to face Jack.
Bunny lifted up Jack's chin with his thumb, leaning forward and planted a small kiss on him. "Good morning." He smiled warmly. Jack thought his heart skipped a beat when he saw that smile, and shades of pink had started to show on his face.
"More!" He begged.
"More?" Bunny laughed and caressed his lover's rabbit ear softly and a cute purr escaped Jack's lips. Jack lingered his arms on the older ones' neck, letting Bunny touch him. "Yes, please."
Bunny tipped Jack's head to his and kissed him again, mating his tongue with the younger ones. It felt hot and although Jack's tongue was as cold as an ice cube, the boiling sensation ran quickly into his blood. The need for air broke their lips apart. They panted hardly, but then smirked to each other. Bunny's blanket fell to the floor as they went for another kiss, their bodies pressed together and Jack could feel Bunny's large member caressing his'. It had started to get aroused.
"Jack? Bunny? Are you in there?" North knocked on the bathroom door and leaned his ear on it to have a better hearing of what's going on inside.
They gasped, quickly broke the kiss and untangled their bodies. It's weird that they didn't notice North's footsteps earlier even when they had super sensitive rabbit ears. Probably had taken too deep into their own world. "Y-yes, North." Jack stuttered.
"Are you guys alright?" The Santa wondered.
"Actually, no." Bunny sighed before covering his body with the sheet again and looked at Jack with somber eyes, waiting for him to nod and decided to tell North what was actually happening. He unlocked the door, letting him see with his big blue eyes what the hell had happened to them. And as they expected, North stunned as his eyes scanning through Jack's new rabbit ears and mostly at Bunny's hot face and muscled body.
"Pitch again?" He asked.
"Yeah."
"Can ya gimme any clothes to wear first? It's freezing here." Bunny said, his arms crossed and his hands were gripping his upper arms, hugging himself from the mild air.
"...Oh yes right." North snapped his fingers and in seconds two yetis had come to their rescue, giving him one full set of clothing. It's surprising how North had prepared such thing for the worst case possible. But he could care less; it didn't matter now as long as he got something to cover his furless skin now.
"Well.. Pitch has outdone it this time." North led them into the family room. Sandy and Tooth weren't there. They were not seasonal Guardians like the Santa or the Easter Bunny, or like Jack- so they were busy fulfilling their duty for all day and mostly night, giving all children what they wanted without fail to keep their faith in the Guardians strong.
"Yeah." Jack agreed, "Actually he came to my dream last night."
"Hm? And what did he say to you?" North asked as he sat on his large couch.
"He said that me and Bunny can touch each other again."
"Okay."
"That's it."
"What? That's it?"
"Yeah."
"He didn't tell you about what's going to happen with the side effect or when it's going to wear off?" North raised his eyebrows.
"No. But he said that I can thank him later." Jack said and as he recalled back to what the Boogeyman told him, he thought that maybe he got a kind side on him, but then quickly regretted that he ever thought of that.
There was a mere seconds of silence between them. North spoke up and patted Jack's shoulder. "I'm sorry I can't do anything, Jack." The smaller guardian looked up at his father-like figure and smiled slightly. "No worries, North. We're okay. Isn't that right, Bunny?"
"Yeah. I actually wanna have the chance to see my human form anyway." He crossed his arms and legs and leaned his back to the couch. "Besides I wanna try some things."
Jack stared at his boyfriend with a smirk plastered on his face, "An 'experiment'?"
"Pervy mind ya got in there, eh mate?" He chuckled, "But yeah, an experiment. Let's get back to my Warren, Jack." A grin crossed widely on his tanned face and without much words spoken, he rose up from the couch and tapped his foot twice on the floor whilst grabbing Jack on his waist and went down the hole, leaving North with his big, perplexed blue eyes.
