Hiccup x oc oneshots

137- midnight scrum

So hiccup and south have celise in this. At this point she's three

Hiccup's p.o.v

"Ahaha ha no way, Viggo put a price on hiccup's head? Every bounty hunter from here to the archipelago is gonna be looking for you" snotlout laughs. I tighten my grip on celise, trying to fight my nerves
"Thank you, snotlout for your undying support"
"No no, hiccup. Thank you" I roll my eyes.
"Snotlout, be quiet, this is serious" south says sternly. Snotlout instantly shuts up. I sigh.
"Look, we have more pressing things to worry about." I say.
"Hiccup, it may be best to lay low for a while. I mean, a public, crowded place is the perfect place for bounty hunters to slip in undetected" heather says (yes I know this isn't the script)
"I'm not shying away from anything" I say, adjusting celise so she's on my hip.
"Hiccup, a bounty hunter would take great pleasure in a three year old girl. They sell for very high on the dark market" I clear at the rave haired girl.
"You caking me a bad father? I would never let anything happen to her" I say tersely. Heather sighs
"Hiccup, you're not a bad father, but right now you aren't being the best." I flare harder
"I don't have to listen to this. I'm spending the celebration with my family." I spit before leaving the room. I can hear south scolding heather.
"Daddy's mad?" Celise pipes up. I smile gently down at her.
"Yeah baby, I'm mad."
"Me?"
"No. I'm not mad at you, I'm mad at aunty heather"
"Aunty heaver bad?"
"No, honey. She's just..." I sigh and sit down in my bed as soon as I reach it. She shifts from my hip to my lap, placing her tiny little hand in my cheek.
"I wuv you, daddy" this makes my heart burst.
"Daddy loves you too, little lady" she snuggles into my chest, and I hold her tight, a fierce need to protect her overcoming me.
"I won't let those bounty hunters hurt you, baby. They won't get close to you" I murmur. She's fast asleep against my chest, so I pick her up and gently set her down on my bed, tucking her in. I sit beside her for some time, gently stroking her hair. I don't want to admit that she's getting older, even if she's only three. She's getting a bit big for me to pick up, but Iike holding her. There's no doubt she's a daddy's girl. She obviously doesn't love me any more than she loves south. I couldn't explain it if I tried. O sigh and lean over, kissing the top of her head before walking downstairs. South is feeding toothless and windwalker.
"Hey" she says once she sees me
"Hey. Is everything okay?"
"Yeah... hiccup I gotta-" shes cut off when fishlegs walks in.
"If we're gonna get to berk before sundown, we gotta go now" I nod.
"Okay, give us 10 minutes." He nods and walks out.
"What were you saying?" I turn back to south. She sighs and shakes her head
"N-never mind..."
"Okay... you go get celise. I'll pack our stuff" she nods and kisses me before heading upstairs. I swiftly pack what we need, and she comes down holding a tired looking celise as I'm strapping the saddlebags to toothless.
"Toofy" she giggles and runs up to toothless. He meals at her and gently nudged her chest, making her shriek with laughter. I smile a little
"C'mon baby" south picks her up, and she clings to her mother as they mount windwalker. I mount toothless and meet the others in the air
"Ready?" I say. They nod. About halfway there, heather pulls up next to me
"Hiccup... I'm sorry. I never should've said what I did. I don't know anything about raising kids, and look how celise has turned out... you are an amazing father. I never should have doubted that" she says. I give her a gentle smile
"It's okay. Heather. It's not easy, trust me. Don't worry about it" she gives me a little nod and moves back to where she was before. We arrive at berk. After braving my father, we begin helping to set up for the event

After the event

I sigh as I walk into me and souths home, celise holding my hand.
"Bed time, beautiful" I coo at her.
"Nooooo. I want stay awake!" She says adamantly, yet her eyelids are already drooping. I chuckle and pick her up. She read her head on my collarbone, and swiftly falls asleep. I head upstairs to her bed and tuck her in, before heading back down. South is sat at the table, holding a cup of water. I slide in the chair next to her.
"What's on your mind?" I ask, bringing her into my lap. We don't get many moments like this anymore. So I savour it. She sighs and leans against my shoulder.
"It's just... in really worried about you, about the whole bounty thing" I clutch her a little closer
"I do admit that it is pretty stressful, but I promise that nothing is gonna happen to me"
"How can you promise that? You can't tell the future" she looks up at me. I frown
"Well yeah, but-"
"Exactly. You can't say that for sure, though you would be able to if you didn't let your pride take over" she spits, pulling herself away from me and standing up, crossing her arms and glaring at me. Her anger brings me up short. She never gets angry.
"Babe-"
"No, don't 'babe' me, you know that I'm right."
"What are you getting angry at me for? I didn't do anything" I say, feeling myself get angry as well.
"You really aren't all that smart if that's what you think. What am I gonna do if something happens, huh? You think I could raise celise on my own? You think I could face her when she asks where her father had gone, and why we had to burn your stuff?"
"Don't you DARE bring celise into this" I shout, slamming my hands down into the table and stand up.
"You're not immortal, hiccup. You keep this up and you will get hurt. Grow up!" She claps her hands twice at me.
"Why don't you? I know what I'm doing. With celise, with the riders, with my dad and the bounty. You're hailing all about how much it saddens you, but what about me? You think I can sleep or do anything without worrying about the fact that there may very well be a hundred people looking for me? Don't you even think about telling my dad. He has more to deal with" I yell at her, feeling my heart clench, and yet I can't stop.
"There it is. Hiccup, you really think that telling your father is going to ruin everything? HE'S YOUR FATHER, and I'm your wife and I love you, but right now, I can't even figure out what you're doing, but maybe you aren't a very good father if you're putting your pride ahead of her" South calling me a bad father tips me over.
"HOW DARE YOU. I DO EVERYTHING FOR HER. I'd do anything to keep her from this. I'm taking celise and going to my dads. I don't have to put up with your shit" I spit
"Fine; take her and run. Like you always do" she laughs scornfully. I bite back the urge to defend myself. It will only make this worse. I walk up the stairs and find celise. She's awake. Turns out, she was watching over the edge the entire time. I gently pick her up. She looks up at me, tears running down her cheeks.
"Why you mad, daddy? Why mommy mad?"
"It's... it's okay, honey. We're gonna go stay with grandpa for a bit." I say
"Mommy?"
"No, mommy's not coming. She's not very happy with me, so we're gonna give her some time to think, okay?"
"Okay" I walk out the house with her, throwing one last glance to south. She's slumped over the table, her head buried in her arms. I harden my heart to stop myself from running to comfort her. I walk through the plaza towards me dads house
"Daddy" celise whispers. Her legs are wrapped around my waist, her chin resting in my shoulder.
"Hmm?"
"Behind you" and then, everything goes black.
