The Big Four: Goes to School

I Wish this is True (Hiccup's Diary)

Dear Diary,

Yes! Yes! Yes! Finally, Astrid is officialy my girlfriend. I surely passed out yesterday but it was because I was just overwhelmed. I mean, a nerd like me would have someone so beautiful. I didn't know what to say, what if I see her? What will I tell her? No, I just need to be myself that's all. She liked me for who I am. I wish this is true. I wish everything is true. I just can't believe it. For the first time, my first crush, my first love, and my first girlfriend.

-Hiccup-

I went to school early so I won't get awkward if I see Astrid, wait why am I saying this? Well, I think it's because I embarassly passed out in front of her, smiling. I don't know what's going on with me, it's like I never felt so weird. I mean, I am weird, but I would say this is the weirdest feeling I've had ever. "Yo Hiccup! Catch!" Jack threw a football right in my face, but he didn't manage to. I hurriedly grabbed it even though I almost felt like it would hit me.

"Whoa, nice catch. You've changed a lot, I guess being a boyfriend is a new thing to you," Jack said. I would say he's right, I am a little jealous of him and I kinda want to ask for some advice to him. Because from the looks of him, he looked like he has lots of experience when it comes to girls. "Yea, it's a real new thing to me," I said. "So, where is Astrid?" Jack asked. "Uhm, I don't know. She's not here yet," I shrugged my shoulders.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa. You mean, you didn't bring her here?" Jack asked with a disgust look. "Wha...what do you mean?" I asked. "Dude, you're the girl's boyfriend, and you should always be her company in taking her home or be with her in every time, even in school. I guess you need some serious help here boy," Jack said while shaking his head. Yep, he read me. He knew I needed help. "Sorry 'bout that, you're right. Well, tell me everything about it," I agreed. "Come on, let's talk in the classroom," Jack said. Then we both went to the classroom.

"So, what exactly do I need to do?" I asked. "Well first of all, you should accompany her just like what I've told you. Every girl needs to feel that they're safe with they boyfriends, especially you. I mean, you wouldn't expect her to protect you in everything right? So you should act like a real boyfriend. You still need to be yourself but you have to change few things about yourself. You need to be fearless, you need to go shopping with her if she wants to, you need to laugh at her jokes and you need to agree and disagree in a right way. Got it?" Jack explained.

My mind was just blown away. Well, I feel like a new guy right now. I know now how to do things right, and thanks to Jack he helped me a lot. "Wow, thanks man," I said. Jack gave me a pat in the back. I'm smart, and I'll totally remember all this.

-Rapunzel-

I am so excited about this evening. Jack and I will go to the glow in the dark swan ride. It's going to be so romantic. I am really looking forward to it. I wanted Hiccup and Merida to go with me but Jack told me that they would understand if we're going to have some time alone. It was five p.m. and I was waiting for Jack. I still don't know why he's still not here. I just wish he would come.

-Merida-

I'm now with Jack at his Football game, he told Rapunzel that he would go with her after the game. But both teams' scores are tied. I am starting to become nervous at this point, because I don't want Rapunzel waiting for so long.

After five minutes,

Finally, Bollywood High won the game. But I saw Jack going with his friends. So I ran towards him and blocked him in the way. "Jack, what're ya doing?" I whispered. "Because Bollywood High won the game three years in a row, well we're going to have a celebration. Isn't that right guys?" Jack said while his teamates cheered. "No, no, no. Wait a minute, Jack! You promised Rapunzel that you'll go with her tonight! Jack, don't do this," I begged. "Don't worry, she'll understand me. I know what kind of girl she is, and I'll explain everything to her, don't worry Mer, I'm going to see her later," Jack said and walked away.

Oh no, this is not happening. Is Jack being that other guy again? That guy who only cared for himself and playing with girl's emotions? No, this can't be. I thought he changed.

-Jack-

After the party, I went to the park. I bought pink roses for her and a teddy bear. I saw her sitting at the bench. I walked towards her and she glared at me. I started to become nervous even though I was still far away. She walked towards me and slapped me in the face. She just slapped me...right in the face.

"What's wrong?" I asked while putting my hand on my burning cheeks. "What's wrong?! Jack, it's eight o'clock, we can never go there! What took you so long?" Rapunzel shouted. "Wait, calm down. Look, it's just that I won the game and I just had a party with my team," I explained. "You should've not promised me Jack. You should've just told me you can't go, because it hurts to much! I don't know what happened to you. It's like you're not even sorry," Rapunzel cried.

I didn't talk back to her. I knew at that moment she was right. I was turning back of what I was again. "I...I'm sorry," I said. Rapunzel didn't say anything but walked away. The roses and gifts dramatically fell down, well...so as I.

Merida went to the park to see Rapunzel, but she guessed she was too late. All she saw was Jack drinking a can of beer while not walking straight. He looked wasted she thought. And she knew what happened to him. Merida was going to turn back and let him suffer but he started vomiting on the ground and crying dramatically. So she ran towards him and helped him. "Why did she do that to me? Please come back! I'm sorry," Jack shouted. "Come on, I'll get you home," Merida grabbed his arm and puts it in her shoulder. "I'm sorry! I'm such a jerk," Jack cried. Merida can't talk, all she did was stare at Jack. She knew that this Jack was totally different. She can feel the pain that he's having right now, unlike the Jack that didn't even care if a girl breaks up with her.

Merida brought Jack home. She gently puts Jack in his couch. She was about to go, but Jack's arm grabbed her. "Please don't go,"Jack murmurs. Merida still wanted to go but Jack was grabbing her arm tightly. "Stay with me please, don't go," Jack pleaded again. Merida didn't help but sit beside him. Jack didn't talk but all he did was grab Merida and embraced her as he fell to his couch. "Grrgh! I can't get off," Merida angrily whispered. Jack was already asleep, he can't even feel Merida fighting to escape his embrace. "Ugh, fine," she just grabbed the blanket and pillows. Jack was totally drunk.

What am I doing? I'm supposed to get away from him, but why would I still come closer? Ugh, I hate this stupid love. But still I thought...since he is drunk, he probably won't remember what I'm going to tell him.

"Jack, I know you won't remember anything if I tell you this. But I think I have to confess, even though it sounds crazy, but I really wanted to let this out even if you won't hear me. I...I just want to say this to you, face to face. Jack...I felt this since we pretended like we were a true couple. You were just so different. I tried to fight it Jack, but I can't. Jack, I just wish this is true, what is happening right now. And every time were together. I like you Jack," Merida cried and buried her head in the pillow.

"I like you too."
