Disclaimer: I do now own Jack Frost, Bunnymund or any other characters from the Rise of the Guardians universe, I just love them alot!

Hey all, I've been away for a bit, sorry about that, but here is the next story of Jack and Aster! Hope you like, this is kinda a personal challenge for me so review and let me know what you think!

"Jack!" Aster exclaimed excitedly as the winter spirit walked through the door to the burrow they lived in. The door had barely clicked closed before Jack felt the familiar strong arms wrapping around his waist, the familiar warm lips pressed against his. Aster's warm fingers were wandering around his body, Jack's own cooler digits weaving through the rabbit's think fur. Jack pulled back from the kiss as he felt Aster's finger's start working his hoodie up in preparation to remove the blue garment.

"I've been gone for twenty minutes" Jack chuckled as he batted away Aster's hands playfully.

"Twenty three minutes" Aster corrected and then added as he leaned down to nip at Jack's neck "twenty two and a half minutes to long."

Jack giggled as Aster swept him off his feet and into the rabbit's arms, his hoodie somehow coming off during the motion, Jack finding his mouth much to full of rabbit to be able to protest. Then he was in their bedroom without his pants. Over two hundred years together and Jack had yet to figure out how his rabbit did that, not that he minded. Jack jumped, bringing his legs up to wrap around Aster's waist, throwing himself just right so as to over balance his rabbit and send them toppling into their bed. "You ready for number thirty eight?" Jack asked with a flirty wink.

"This would be thirty nine actually." Aster corrected him with a wink, bringing his hand down to squeeze Jack's rear, eliciting a squeak from the winter spirit.

"The one in the hallway doesn't count." Jack said as he brought his hand around Aster's body to scratch his tail, feeling the tremor run through the rabbit, ending in his long leg as he tried not to thump it against the mattress.

"Oh it doesn't?" Aster asked, raising his eyebrows.

"Nope." Jack said, not leaving it for debate. "That leaves only thirty seven."

"Only? It's been two days Jack, you are aware I'm the one who's supposed to be in heat, right?" Aster said with a grin as he pulled just right up against him, his soft fur smooth against Jack's pale skin.

"Oh, I know, but I want to break triple digits this time." Jack said, his voice all kinds of suggestive, and pushed Aster down into the bed, effectively ending the conversation.

Nearly an hour later Jack fell against Aster's chest, panting hard as the warm glow slowly drained from his body. Aster looked up at the winter spirit and grinned "Forty."

Jack smiled in response, snuggling up against Aster's chest and closing his eyes. Jack loved Aster's mating season, but not for the sex. The sex was good…well that would be underselling it, the sex was amazing, but that wasn't the main reason Jack loved it. It was Aster's desire for him that meant so much to Jack, the connection he felt with his rabbit especially strongly. He had been through one other matting season with Aster, just after his "incident" around a hundred years ago. Apparently Pookas only go into head once every hundred years or so, during the spring, and only if there is a suitable mate for them. That last part had made Jack feel kinda special, being told it was his presence that had triggered the season in Aster.

Jack was pulled back to the present why Aster sliding Jack off his chest and onto the best next to him, his paw playing with Jack's hair as he smiled as his mate "I love you." He said, every bit of him exuding the emotion.

"I love you too." Jack said with a smile, curling ups against Aster's chest at his rabbit wrapped those familiar arms around him. It was late and they were both tired, and they would both need their energy for tomorrow, and the rest of the week. Jack grinned at that thought as he drifted off to sleep.

Jack blinked awake, stretching as he shook off the haze of sleep. He winced as his muscles stretched, his everything was sore. Not really surprising he supposed, after the week he'd had. Their final tally was one hundred and forty six which, Jack had to admit, was a lot even for an immortal teenager and a rabbit in heat. That was one record he certainly wasn't going to try to break any time soon. Jack reached over to wake up Aster, frowning when his questing arm found only empty air. Jack stood up, looking around the room for any sign of Aster and finding none. He climbed out of bed, slipping a soft white robe around himself as he walked across the room to the door.

As soon as Jack open the door he was hit with a wonderful smell, carrots, peppers, potatoes, and onions all sautéed in spicy sauce that Jack absolutely loved. He couldn't help smiling as he walked down the hallway. It had been a week since they'd have anything that took more than fifteen minutes to make, and far longer since Aster had made this particular meal, he had a name for it but Jack always referred to it as 'that spicy vegetable thing'. "Someone's up early" Jack said as he entered the room, finding Aster in their kitchen standing over the stove, as he had expected.

"Depends on your definition of early sleeping beauty, it's nearly three in the afternoon." Aster said, turning his head to speak to Jack, giving him an appreciative look as he noticed the rather revealing robe handing loosely over jack's shoulders.

"Really?" Jack said, honestly surprised as the late hour, he knew he's been tired but he hadn't though he was that tired. He walked over and wrapped his arms around the rabbits shoulder's, floating up a couple feet and said "Well, I guess someone must have completely exhausted me. Wonder who that could have been?"

Aster chuckled and turned, placing the wooden spoon in his hand on the stovetop, and wrapped his arms around Jack's waist. "I haven't the slightest idea." He said with a wink before leaning down and kissing Jack.

After a few blissful moments Jack pulled away "So what's the occasion?" he asked, gesturing at the pan on the stove.

Aster shrugged "Nothing, just felt like making it. Are you complaining?"

"Of course not." Jack said "It's one of my favorites."

"I know." Aster said with a wink, turning back to the stove to attend to lunch.

Jack grinned as he took a seat at their small table, angling the chair so he could watch Aster cook.

"We should go and visit the others today." Aster said as he grabbed two plates from a cabinet "Just to check in. You know how Tooth gets if anyone's out of contact for more than a few days."

"I suppose." Jack said, not exactly thrilled by the idea. He'd enjoyed the last week, just him and Aster, no outside worries or concerns, it had been wonderful and he was loathed for things returned to normal. A thought occurred to him then and he asked, a slight blush creeping into his cheeks "So, uh, how much do the others know exactly…about this last week that is?"

"Enough to know that it was my mating season." Aster said, portioning out the contents of the pan onto the plates.

"You told them that?" Jack said, feeling the warmth suffusing his cheeks. North was going to have a field day with this.

"I didn't have much choice, Tooth said if I didn't tell her what has going on she would just 'Come and see what the big secrete was'" Aster said, his voice going higher as he mimicked Tooth "I was tempted to let her, that would have served her right." He said with a chuckle.

"I cannot express how grateful I am you didn't" Jack replied, shuddering slightly at the thought of Tooth walking in on any of the last weeks activities.

Aster laughed at the look on Jack's face as he took a seat at the table, setting a plate in front of Jack. It smelled amazing and Jack attacked it, the hot food burning is mouth as he ate but he didn't care, it tasted as good as it smelled and he was starving. After several mouthfuls Jack swallowed and looked up at Aster "This is amaze…" he voice trailed off as he saw Aster's face. His husband had eaten three, maybe four bites of the food, his plate still mostly full. He was leaning back away from the food a slightly sick expression on his face as he covered his nose. "You ok?" Jack asked slightly worried about his rabbit.

"Ya, just…little too spicy I guess" Aster said, his brow furrowed slightly.

"You want something else?" Jack asked as he got up and removed the plate from in front of Aster, setting it on the counter. His husband visibly relaxed when the food was removed from his immediate area, though his nose was still wrinkled. Jack waked over and put a hand on Aster's back "Are you sure you're ok? We can have one of the medical yetis look at you when were at North's." he said, rubbing his husband's back gently.

"I'm fine Jack" Aster said with a slightly forced smile "just a little queasy."

"Alright, if you're sure, but you need to eat something before we leave." Jack said, still concerned about the rabbit. Aster ended up eating some plain carrots, something that was unusual for him. Carrots were his favorite food, but Aster always cooked them with something, or had them as a side, never as the meal itself. Jack was still worried about him as they made their way through the tunnels a couple hours later, keeping a closer than usually eye on his husband.

"Ah! Jack, Bunny! Is good to see you, and is good to see you walking straight Jack!" North said as they couple arrived at the Russian's palace, winking at Jack and laughing at his comment.

"Good to see you to North" Jack said, his face going red at the joke as he tried to sink into his hoodie. The garment felt a little uncomfortable, constraining after spending most of the last week wearing nothing more than a smile. Aster grinned at the look on Jack's face, apparently feeling better with a little food in his stomach.

The visit went longer then Jack would have preferred, North insisting on calling Sandy Tooth and Jamie to come and say hello as well, though Jack secretly thought that the large Russian just wanted a bigger audience for his attempt to make Jack die of embarrassment. Jack was just thankful that Aster hadn't joined it on North's lighthearted teasing, though I worried him to, it wasn't like his husband to pass up an opportunity to make him blush. At least Jack wasn't alone; North's jokes had Tooth blushing nearly as much as Jack, the two sharing sympathetic glances every so often. Jamie seemed to be having even more fun than North was, Jack caught his friend practically beaming at both him and Aster on more than on occasion which made Jack think Jamie knew something, which in turn made him blush even harder when he thought about what that might be. More than once he stole a punch line from North, causing the normally jolly guardian to scowl angrily.

The whole day Jack had the feeling that something was off, but it wasn't until desert that he found out what. Aster had volunteered to get the dessert from the kitchen and was carrying it to the large table North used when he had guests when he staggered, his eyes blinking rapidly. Jack was on his feet in a second, moving to Aster, but he as to slow. Aster's foot caught on the rug and he fell, falling face first onto the cake. Everyone in the room burst into laughter as Aster pulled his frosting covered face from the platter, everyone but Jack that was, he could see the pain on his hatband's face. "What's wrong?" Jack said, kneeling down next to the rabbit. Aster gestured to his arm and Jack saw the red of blood staining the white frosting of the cake. "NORTH!" Jack called, concern making his voice louder than strictly necessary.

Twenty minutes later Jack was sitting on a chair next to Aster's bed while a yeti bandaged the place on his arm where he'd landed on the knife meant for the cake, slicing his right arm just below the shoulder. The cut wasn't bad, and would be healed in a day or two. Jack was much more worried about what had caused Aster to fall in the first place.

"I told you, I just felt dizzy for a second." He said after some badgering from Jack.

"First you were feeling sick at one of your favorite meals, and now you're having dizzy spells. I'm getting worried." Jack said, getting up and walking over to lay his hand on Aster's left shoulder. The yeti finished bandaging Aster's arm and walked over to a counter, pulling out something that looked like a magnifying glass. He walked over and passed it over Aster's entire body twice, turning away just as North walked into the room.

"How you feeling Bunny?" North said, looking a little guilty, probably for laughing when his friend was injured.

"I'm fine North, can ya tell your yeti that? I'd like to get out of here." Aster said, looking at the yeti, who was reading something that had appeared on the surface of the looking glass, clearly annoyed. "What's he doing anyway?"
North looked at the Yeti who said something in their grunting language "Is diagnostic tool, says Jack was worried about you so gave you quick once over, if anything wrong it will show up on that." North said, translating for the yeti. The yeti made a surprised sounding noise as he read, leaning closer and squinting at the devise, knocking at against the counter a couple times. He tossed the thing away and grabbed a second from a drawer, scanning Aster a second time. He read the device again, shrugging and letting out a bemused sigh, turning to North he started talking and North translated. "Bunny does not need to worry, symptoms are completely normal for someone who is-" North stopped and turned to stare at the yeti. The yeti shrugged and held up his hands as if to say "don't ask me".

Jack turned to Aster, expecting to share a confused look with the rabbit; instead he was surprised to see Aster's eyes wide, as though he had just realized something. "Who is what North? What did he say?"

North looked slowly as Aster, his eyes wary and confused. In a cautious voice he said "Pregnant."

Alright so I can't believe I'm writing this, I still don't believe I decided to do this actually but I had the idea and it yelled until I decided to go with it. This is a personal challenge to me, because I've never liked Mpreg stories before because i feel so many of them are done with the "because shut up that's why" explanation and I don't really like that. I read a few good ones that have inspired me, so I'm giving it a try. If you don't like it, sorry but its happening.
