Jack thought that the safest option would be to hop in Bridgette's back pocket and try and get her attention in there. He manage to get in with ease, but getting Bridgette's attention from there was much more difficult than Jack had expected. He wiggled around, making the most violent movements he could to make a disturbance, but to no avail. Bridgette made no signal that she was aware of something in her pocket. Jack began to climb back out of her pocket to figure out another way to get her attention, but Bridgette stood back up and Jack fell back to the bottom of the pocket. Hearing a slam and a click, Jack figured that Bridgette had got whatever she needed to get, and was on her way out of the school.
"Shit," he thought, "if I don't get her attention soon, she might accidentally kill me". Jack once again tried to make his way out of the pocket, but once again failed. Bridgette's movements kept throwing him off balance. Jack had nothing to do except wait for an opportunity and seize it.
After a couple more minutes of Bridgette's swaying, her movements stopped and Jack could hear her voice. She must have gotten distracted by a friend. This was the time for him to make his move. Jack quickly ascended the pocket with no trouble and made it to waistline of Bridgette's loose jeans. Jack didn't know what to do from here, but he had to act fast because he had no idea how much longer Bridgette was going to stay stationary. Looking up, he noticed that Bridgette's long blonde hair reached down to about halfway on her back, so Jack thought that if he could climb up Bridgette's tank top, he would be able to grab on to her hair and make it up to get her attention.
Jack swiftly made his move, and made it to Bridgette's hair in no time flat. As he began to ascend her hair, though, Bridgette dismissed with her friend and began her walk again. Jack struggled to climb with the constant swaying of Bridgette's hair, nearly losing his grip a couple times, so he decided that he should just wait out her movements, then begin his climb again. Around five or so minutes later, Bridgette reached her car and got in. Once she sat down, Jack resumed his climb. Without any sudden movements or jolts from Bridgette, Jack was able to ascend her hair with no problem and was at her shoulder by the time Bridgette started the car.
Heaving some, Jack made his way over to Bridgette's ear and yelled. Noticing the noise coming off of her left shoulder, Bridgette stopped her backing up and attended to the issue. She looked over and couldn't believe what she saw.
"Oh my god!" Bridgette yelled, "are you a human? No, no way. People can't get that small, that's just a damn bug". Before she had the opportunity to swipe the "bug" off her shoulder, the "bug" spoke to her.
"No! I am not a bug! It's me, Jack! I shrunk!" Jack exclaimed. Bridgette's eyes widened. "Jack? Oh my god, are you okay?". Jack laughed some and responded "Yeah, I'm fine. Just a little banged up, but otherwise okay". Bridgette picked him up off of her shoulder and held him in front of her face. "Is there anything I can do? How did you end up like this? This makes no sense!" Bridgette was losing her mind. "Calm down, calm down! Everything is good, not a problem to be had!" Jack reassured. "I just need your help getting me back to my place".
"Sure, sure, I can do that" Bridgette said, relieved. "Thanks, I owe ya one" Jack replied.
The rest of the ride was somewhat awkward, neither one of them knowing what to say to the other. Once Bridgette had arrived at Jack's house, she kept him on her shoulder and walked to the door. She knocked, but there was no response. After trying a couple more times, Bridgette looked to Jack.
"Where's your family?" she asked. "Oh!" Jack realized. "My mom had to work a little late tonight and Lucy's over at a friend's house while Izzy's having volleyball practice. I completely forgot about that. Guess I have the house all to myself then".
"Well..." Bridgette begins.
What does she say?
