Chapter 8 Jack

Jack went into work still troubled by the fact Rapunzel was still in his home. Why couldn't she just move on! He was happy, sure things hadn't turned out the way he planned but still he wasn't depressed or soured by the outcome.

When he got to Tooth's desk he was surprised to see her looking so ill. Her hair was messy and her red eyes made it look like she hadn't slept in days.

"Woah what happened to you?" Jack asked.

"I think I have the flu." She replied as she struggled to keep her head up.

"You need to go home." Jack replied.

"I can't, my boss will fire me if I'm sick again. I just need some..." Tooth looked even greener than before. She headed towards the women's bathroom as quickly as she could.

"That can not be good."

"Thiana make sure those papers are faxed to Chicago immediately." Her boss' snake like voice commanded,

"Crap." Jack ran to the woman's bathroom where he heard Tooth hurling her lungs out.

"Tooth sorry to bother you but what papers need to be faced to Chicago?"

"Uh the ones labeled Fitz. They are in...my desk," she said tiredly. "Fax number is 359."

"Got it." Jack said running out. He filed through the papers in her desk until he finally found the one labeled Fitz. Luckily Tooth was a very organized person. He faxed the papers quickly and sat down at Tooth's desk in relief. "Thiana could you come in here?" The boss' voice came through the phone.

"Uh sorry sir this is Jack, Thiana is currently out finding your wife some jewelry to make up for the flower incident sir. She went right to Cartier after sending those faxes."

"Come into my office immediately."

Jack hung up the phone and begrudgingly walked into the office. This was the first time he had ever seen Tooth's boss.

He sat in a large maple desk. The little plaque on his desk read Mr. Black in sharp letters. The letters matched his appearance. His dark hair was slicked back, not one out of place. It looked as if the hair was frozen solid on top of his head. His green piercing eyes made him look like a snake of his voice didn't do the job already. 

"So why are you taking over my secretary's job?" said Mr. Black.

Seeing and hearing him at the same time sent shivers down Jack's spine. Could this guy be any more terrifying?

"Uh no sir she...told me she was going out and for me to take your calls.. I'm not taking her job." Jack said.

"What's your job then?" He asked.

"Well I work in the mailroom sir." Jack replied.

"Oh really, interesting how your willing to move from your post won't they miss you in the mailroom mister..."

"Frost, Jack Frost."

"Don't play games with me young man I'm no fool."

"No it's my real name sir, it's a family name oddly enough, I could show you my ID to prove it," he replied.

"No need Mr. Frost, now if your going to be useful will you get Mr. Moon on the phone?" Mr. Black said.

"Yes sir," Jack replied having no idea what Mr.Moon's number was.

Jack went into Tooth's desk and luckily found her address book containing the phone numbers of executives. Mr. Moon being one of them.

"Hello Mr. Moon's office, hi I have Mr. Black on the line. Alright thank you."

What was he supposed to do now? Jack panicked and went back into Mr. Black's office "Mr. Moon on line one sir." He had seen this done in movies before and he hoped they were accurate.

"Thank you." He replied and picked up the phone.

Jack breathed a sigh of relief and left the office and saw Tooth had returned to her desk.

"Hey don't worry it's all covered I said you were out buying jewelry for his wife." Jack said.

"What?! Jack how am I suppose to give him the jewelry!" Tooth said trying not to look up for fear she might get sick again.

"Don't worry I will handle it, give me your business card."

Thiana did so, "Thank you by the way I don't know what has come over me this morning."

"It's okay. Don't worry." Jack replied and headed towards the elevator.

He was out on the street, what was the name of the place he told Mr. Black? Jack gave up guessing and decided o go to Tiffany's that was down the street.

The store glistened with blues, whites and of course diamonds. It looked as if someone had collected the stars and put them behind glass doors for people to gaze upon.

Jack looked around unsure what to get. Should he get something really expensive or just something simple?
He didn't know of Mrs.Black's taste or of what kind of budget Mr. Black was on but he decided to meet in the middle. He decided on a diamond bracelet. His grandfather had once told him that you can never go wrong if you buy a woman diamonds.

"Jack!" He heard a familiar voice calling his name.

Rapunzel was outside the window waving. Oh god how was he supposed to talk to her without looking like a crazy person?
