AN: Jack is a winter spirit and everyone believes in him on Berk
Hiccup was sure of it this time. He had thought about it all day while working in the smithy. He thought of all the pros that could come out of the situation and ignored the cons the best he could. He could do it. He had asked Merida out on a date yesterday and to his joy she said yes. They were to meet once he was done cleaning up shop. Jack being in the shop made that idea a little tricky. Jack was a winter spirit and was Hiccup's best friend and Jack knew how he felt about Merida. He was dying to tell him but he couldn't because he knew Jack would blab. He was his best frined and that's why he knew him so well. The news would be around the whole island before he could even get a chance to say hello.
Jack was getting suspicious though. He knew Hiccup was hiding something. And he was going to find out.
"So what are you doing after you clean up this dump." Jack asked.
"First of all not a dump this is my work place, Second I I'm not sure probably just go home feed Toothless."
"So you're doing nothing after work?" Jack questioned.
"I guess so." Hiccup said
"That's great because I was thinking of going to Frost Island tonight"
"How many time's do I have to tell you all because I found you there doesn't mean it's your island."
"I beg to differ! That is my home! My Kingdom!" Jack said dramtically.
"Well you can go there by yourself then."
Hiccup began cooling off the coals and putting his supplies in their correct places. He gathered up his workbook papers that had strayed onto his workbench.
"Why?"
"Because I have plans." Hiccup replied.
"You just said you didn't.' Jack said.
"I mean I have plans to go to sleep."
"You're a terrible liar Hiccup." Jack said.
"Listen Jack I promise I will tell you tomorrow just not tonight I have to be somewhere and soon!" Hiccup retorted.
"Fine don't tell me I don't want to know anyway."
"Okay then I'm leaving good bye."
"Pleeeeeeeease tell me!" Jack said flying above Hiccup and diving for Hiccup's ankles.
"Why are you so interested?" Hiccup asked.
"Because I'm so bored now please tell me."
"You can't tell anyone yet oaky."
"Okay."
"Not Even Rapunzel." Hiccup said sternly.
"Fine. I promise."
"I'm going on a date with Merida."
"Ha! Really?! This is great! I can't wait to..."
"Ah ah you promised." Hiccup said
"Fine." Jack said.
Meanwhile.
"Rapunzel I don't know what do!" Merida yelled at her best friend clothes strewn around the ground.
"Merida I'm sure you will be fine."
"I'm not like you Punze. I'm bad with dates hell I've never been on one!"
"They're easy the guy does most of the work anyway all you have to do is keep conversation."
"Help me." Merida said falling into her bed.
"Okay fine, sit up."
Hiccup had gone out to the lake where he was meeting Merida.
He was surprised to see Merida in a pink gown. He had never seen her wear that color in all his life. Her hair was half up and half down. She looked like a proper princess. She reminded him of Rapunzel.
"Hey, wow you look really nice. I feel like I've underdress."
'Be polite and compliment him like Rapunzel said.'
"Thank you but I think you look quite nice."
"Merida I'm in my work clothes." Hiccup replied.
"Yes......well you look nice in them." She said.
Hiccup was confused. Merida did like his work clothes but usually she would make a joke about how there was more dirt on him then clothes.
But she didn't. This wasn't the same.
"Merida are you feeling okay?"
"Oh yeah I mean yes I'm feeling well."
"Okay Merida quit playing come on."
"I don't know what you're talking about?"
"This. This isn't you! The pink dress the compliments! The hair! It's like you're a totally different person."
Merida didn't know what to do. So far the date wasn't going as plan maybe she should just do what Rapunzel had told her before. Just be herself.
"I'm sorry okay, I was really nervous about this date because I hadn't really been on a date and I just wanted you to like me so I did what Rapunzel would do."
"I already like you! That's why I asked you! Merida I want to date you not Rapunzel. Even though she is one of the nicest people I've met. I like you....a lot."
"Really?!"
"Yes really."
Merida took out her hair pins. As her curls scattered back into their natural wild form.
"Thank goodness." She said and smiled.
"There's the Merida I know."
"Not yet Merida would never where something this Pink."
Merida stepped into the lake. The hem of the borrowed dress from Rapunzel's closet dipped slightly into the water.
"If you take one more step and ruin my dress I'm won't talk to you for a week!" Rapunzel yelled from her hiding spot in the bushes.
Hiccup and Merida turned around to see Jack and Rapunzel looking at them through the bush.
"Jack I told you not to tell anyone!" Hiccup said
"I didn't Rapunzel already knew."
"Rapunzel I'll pay you back." Merida said and swiftly jumped into the lake.
"Ugh that was a nice dress!" Rapunzel said "last time I let her borrow anything! Come on Jack lets leave these two alone they know what they're doing"
"Aw but I wanna watch."
"Come on Jack I want to see if the dragon eggs have hatch." She said.
"Okay fine just because of the dragon eggs"
As they left Merida was still swimming in the lake.
"Well aren't you coming in."
"I don't know I'm not really a great swimmer."
Merida came out of the water dripping wet. Her pink dress now a shade of purple from the water and mud stains. She reached for Hiccup's arm. And pulled him out into the water.
"Cold!" He shouted.
"This better?" Merida asked she splashed him.
He gave her a playful glare. He smiled as she giggled.
"That's better." He said. "That's the Merida I asked out yesterday."
She hid under the water to hide the burning blush rushing to her cheeks
Authors note: Junior year is a bitch. Seriously I have like no time I am writing this at 12 am because I had to drink coffee to stay up (i get sleepy by 10:30 I'm convinced im a 60 year old trapped in a 16 year old's body) and finish my chem homework. So I'm wired and was able to finish this Drabble that was requested like two weeks ago. I hoped you all liked it and I really hope to post more as soon as I can! Please comment vote and request!
