TGS'verse

Chapter 11

A/N: A double update for TGS'verse?

Yes indeed!

Another Fiverr writer helped write this, who goes by the name of 'shriyab45', same with about half of chapter 10 (written by 'meercath'), so I really can't take credit for these two chapters, besides stating that I edited them both to fit previously established events and the like.

P.S, I'm taking liberties with Cami's post coma state since I'm not sure she would survive and seem mostly the same as before.

If any neurosurgeons happen to read my stories, I'd like a second opinion on what would happen to her.

Feel free to DM me if you have something to say :)

...

Hiccup sat in a very minimally decorated waiting room. He reached out to grab the newspaper that lay on the small table before him but the loud bang of a door being closed with alarming force caused his body to tense up.

The hair on the back of his neck stood up and every part of him was ready to fight or run if necessary. Old habits die hard.

He calmed down a bit when he saw that the source of the noise was just the woman whom he saw for the past two days when he came to meet his therapist.

She looked angry today. He waited for her to turn and stare at the tall plant just as she did every other day. Today was no exception, her head turning toward the plant after a moment but today, she did something unexpected.

Her fingers curled up into a fist and hit the unsuspecting plant. She grunted furiously. Her head flopped to the side and she glared at Hiccup, her eyes letting him know that she doesn't want to hear anything about this.

He put up his palms and shrugged as if to say he didn't see anything. Her hand tightened around the strap of her sling bag and she stormed out.

Hiccup stood up and headed towards the door that led to Dr Stone's room. The moment he entered, he saw Dr Stone's bright red hair. She looked up at him and gave him a weak smile.

"Hey Henry," she said.

"Hey," Hiccup took a seat in front of her. "The girl who just left, will she be okay?"

"I really hope so."

"It's just... I've never seen Cami that angry before."

"Camicazi is the Cami that you dated before?" the doctor checked, and Hiccup smiled, her habit of using only the birth names of her patients on clear display.

Hiccup nodded. "Yeah, she is."

"Wow, she seems like a completely different from the warm, caring person you describe in our sessions."

"Why do you think that is?"

"She's only been here for two sessions so far and she still hasn't opened up to me but I think she just feels lonely and needs someone to talk to."

"You can do that for her, right? Be someone she can talk to; about Ben?" Hiccup asked with a hint of desperation in his eyes.

"Only if she lets me. She told me she's never coming back here after I asked if she's mad at her brother."

"I'll bring her back. You've really helped me come to terms with my trauma and I want that for her too."

Dr Stone opened her mouth to say more but stopped when she took in Hiccup's expression. He looked quite determined.

...

After he made it back home, he flopped on his bed and his cat, Toothless, jumped up and snuggled against him. The black cat purred upon being petted. Hiccup was grateful for his presence. For the two years before meeting Astrid, Toothless was the only one who comforted him when he had nightmares.
