Again guys, so sorry for the long wait! School, and exams, and play rehearsals along with fundraisers,  have been chaining me down, but i had time to upload this chapter. Hope you like!

Emerald eyes scanned the small space, it was dark, it was cold.
"Hiccup!" The 15 year old quickly scurried out of the closet and crawled under the bed. He heard footsteps coming around the bed and stop. Hiccup covered his mouth trying to muffle out his breathing, but it gave him away. Feeling two hands grab his ankles he let out a surprised squeak when he was pulled out from under the bed.

"Jack! Aren't we too old for this? " Hiccup erupted into the cutest fit of giggles as the 17 year old sat on his hips to pin him down.

"Come on Hic, you know it's fun" Jack laughed.

"Yeah, playing hide n' seek  in your room is fun" Hiccup playfully rolled his eyes.
By this time, both boys had a strong spark of interest towards each other, but neither of them were brave enough to do it. Until one day Jack swallowed the fear of rejection and leaned foward to connect their lips, to fulfill both their wishes. Melting into the kiss, it unintentionally got heated, turning into a full make out session. Jack had already begun tugging at Hiccup's shirt, and let his cold hands roam up and down his abdomen.
But that's when they heard it...the first gunshot.

--------

Hiccup snapped his eyes open and sat up on the bed. His breathing was quick and shallow, one hand went up to lightly touch his lips while the other went under his shirt to touch the same areas where he still felt the cool sensation of the dream boy's hands.

"J-Jack?" He mimicked the name he heard in his dream. The name didn't ring a bell, but the way it came out from his lips seemed. ..right.

Hiccup sighed and shook his head, throwing himself back on the bed and yawned, still tasting the alcohol from his drinking earlier. He glanced at his clock, 11:30 pm. Time to wake up and work,  he did have an important mission after all.

--------

Meanwhile Jack stared at his ceiling, for three nights now, he had been getting strange dreams. Dreams of a green eyed, auburn hair, freckled boy, but every time he came close to knowing who he was, Pitch would give him his weekly injection to cloud up his mind again.

Two nights before he met Nightfury, he had already been dreaming of that mysterious boy, and his encounter with the other assasin only made his mind spark to life again.

Sighing, he sat up and looked at the empty bed across the room, Jamie was gone probably getting his night breakfast. Jack stretched his arms and arched his back with a loud yawn, at least the pain in his lower regions was completely gone. He got up, got dressed, and of course wore his plain blue hoodie to cover up his eyes.

"Guns?"

"Check "

"Staff?" 

Jack pulled out his staff from its holster on his thigh. It was no longer than his forearm, but with a click on a button, it elongated to stand a little bit taller than him.

"Check"

"What about your daggers?"  Astrid asked as she walked next to him.

"I have  two" Jack replied and walked through the gym doors that lead outside. He shortened his staff and placed it back on it's holster.

"How much time were you given?"

"Three days"

"Good luck" Astrid sighed,  Jack mumbled out a 'thank you' before making his way to the roof of the nearest building. Hearing familiar footsteps behind him, Jack sighed and turned around.

"You should go home Jamie, take the night off"

"No, i can't relax knowing my best might get killed tonight "

"Nothing will ha-" Jack began but was istantly cut off.

"I know what this Nightfury guy is capable of. I've seen it"

"How bad?"

"Bad enough. I've seen him kill one of his targets before, literally cut him open and pulled out his intestines as the guy screamed and begged for mercy. This guy is brutal" Jamie finished off with a sigh.

"Jamie, I've had to deliver severed fingers and ears to the families of my targets, im no better than he is and you know it" Jack said sternly causing Jamie to look down and rub his shoulder.

"How did we end up with such a fucked up life Jack?" Jamie mumbled under his breath. Jack sighed and walked over to pull the smaller boy into a hug.

"I don't know, but if i could,  i would take you, and all of our friends out of here " Jack murmured softly. As much as he hated being a murderer, he had no choice, no family and nowhere to run. Jamie stirred within Jack's arms and before the older male could process what was happening,  Jamie leaned up and placed a small kiss on the assasin's lips.

"Come back safely" Jamie whispered and turned around. Once he was out of sight, Jack stood there shocked, not knowing how to process what had just happened.
