Something Different

Chapter 17

Hiccup's POV

I wasn't told about this! Someone new was joining! This could either go well, or really badly.

"HELLO JACKY!" I already knew the answer. A girl with blue and pink dyed hair and a blindingly sparkly dress came barreling straight at Jack. She practically attacked him, her hands wrapping around his neck. "I can't believe you're here!" He pushed her away.

"What are you here for, Tooth?"

"Oh, just the usual crazed obsession phase. Usually my parents just go to a hotel for a couple days, but this time they decided to send me here! Great, huh?"

"Great..." he said sarcastically. I had a feeling these two had a bad past. It was not a good feeling either.

"Hey Tooth, I'm Hiccup." I shook her hand. "Can I talk to Jack for a second?"

"Sure!" She replied a little too energetically. I pulled him aside.

"Hiccup! That girl is bad news! She has a huge crush on me and won't let it go!"

"Is she really that bad?"

"Yes, really. I have a feeling this is going to be a very long year, Hic."

Jack's POV

Hiccup didn't understand! She was a FANGIRL! When I was in elementary and middle school I was nothing like I was today! I was the cool kid! I had girls following me around all the time! It was during high school when I realized I was gay, and in college found that knowledge was a lot more important then popularity. Most of the fangirls left, but she stayed. And, oh how she stayed. She texted me so much that I had to delete her contact. Even then, she wrote letters to me, sent me secret messages, and basically stalked me. I had thought I had gotten rid of her a few months ago, but it didn't seem to be that way anymore. And even worse, I was in my first real relationship, the first one that I felt could last, and she had no idea.

"We have to get her out of here, Hic! She's here for a reason, I know it. She's back for me." I looked behind me to make sure she wasn't there. "She's planning something. It's going to get real ugly, real fast."

"Get her out of here? That seems a bit drastic."

"Oh, you have no idea Hic. I'm more afraid of her than North! She can't stay here for long, or I can't. It's going to get really bad. Really, really bad."

Hiccup's POV

I didn't know exactly what the deal was with this girl, but I did know Jack didn't want her here. I didn't want to get rid of her, obviously, but maybe I could do something a little bit less extreme.

"I'll do what I can, okay? I promise she won't bother you." He frowned a little and looked away, unsatisfied and worried. But he eventually gave in.

"Alright. I'm sorry to drag you into this. Just don't let her find out about us. It has to be a secret." I nodded sadly.

"I'd prefer it not to be a secret, but if it has to be done, it will be done. What's the deal with you two anyways?"

"I'll tell you later. I think we have to go back now. Remember, we're a secret."

"We're a secret."

Jack's POV

It was a good thing Hiccup was willing to cooperate. I did love him, I really did. But I would have to wait to tell him.

"Jacky, what was that about?" Tooth rushed to my side as soon as I walked back in.

"Oh, nothing. Just stuff." Out of the corner of my eye, I could see Elsa and Astrid peering at me suspiciously. They knew something was up.

"Good! I'm going to be roommates with Elsa and Astrid! We're in the same group! Isn't that great?"

"Yeah, great," I replied under my breath.

"Hey mates," Bunnymund signaled Snoutlout and Fishlegs. "Show Tooth around." They nodded and pulled Tooth aside. Right then, Elsa and Astrid took me and Hiccup by the arms, ran to our room, and shut the door. Elsa stood in front of the door while Astrid looked me and Hiccup in the eyes.

"Something's up. Tell us, now."
