HI! HOW ARE ALL YOU AWESOME PEOPLE!?
Okay, so this is going to be a STUPENDIOUSLY hard story to write I'm thinking. So it might take me a little while to get it finished. But let me know what you think of this first chapter and I'll get to work on the second chapter! :D
Prendre Plaisir! (French for "enjoy" I get tired of saying it in English so… XD)
June Lenning opened yet another box that lay on the floor in her bedroom. It hadn't had a label on it so she was just guessing on what it could be.
It was filled with more of her books. She sighed, reached her hand in and began to stack them onto the already crowded bookshelf. Once done with that, she stacked the empty cardboard box onto the pile beside her door, and turned to decide what box she would open next.
"Hunny! You still in there?" a muffled voice called from behind the door. June walked over and opened it, revealing her mother standing with a tray full of snacks.
"I thought you might be hungry, with all this unpacking you've been doing." She said with a smile, holding out the tray.
June smiled back and took hold of the dish. "Thanks, Mom. I'm just about done. How are you doing out there?" she moved back into the room, setting the dish onto her newly made bed.
Her mother glanced about the room, smiling when she saw the progress that had been made. "Living Room's done. Bathroom's done. The kitchen is what's taking me forever to finish up."
June pulled another box open, and began to take out all her knick knacks. This was definitely her favorite box out of all the ones she'd gone through so far. It was full of all her HTTYD figurines, posters and many other things she'd collected over the years.
Her mother straightened up, "Well, I'll leave you to finish up then. Come down when you're done and I'll order some pizza or something."
June looked back just in time to see her mother disappear. "Thanks Mom!" she called out, then resumed unpacking.
She pulled out a large poster that had the RTTE gang on it, all in there Viking poses. She held it out, and smiled. She was a HUGE fan of anything related to HTTYD. She was a little over the top- or at least her Mom said so- but June believed you could never become too big a fan of HTTYD.
She was such a big fan that she wrote fanfiction stories about the movies and TV series. She really liked RTTE best, because the animation was so much better in it then in the Defenders of Berk episodes- although she definitely liked those ones too. June found the twins rather creepy when they're younger, so that was one of the main reasons why she like RTTE better. But Riders of Berk were also hilarious… she had a hard time choosing between the two she finally decided.
She couldn't even choose a favorite character. She liked Hiccup because he was different and strong, and he rode Toothless! She liked Astrid because she wasn't your typical girl figure. She was tough and strong. June also really liked pairing Hiccup and Astrid, which is why she liked those two so much. Hiccstrid was her biggest ship.
She liked Fishlegs because he was a bookworm- like her. She liked Snotlout and the twins because they were stupid and hilarious. I mean- without Snotlout and Tuffnut, the shows would lose half their humor. Over half their humor actually.
June tacked the poster on the wall, backing up to see how it looked in that position. She smiled and nodded her head before turning back to the box, pulling out multiple figurines of Toothless and the other dragons and setting them on top of her dresser. Then she pulled out all the paper she'd printed her fanfiction stories onto, just in case she lost power sometime but wanted to look over her stories for typos or anything else she might've missed.
She tossed the empty box aside and continued with the unpacking, one box after another until she was finally finished. She glanced over at her alarm clock sitting on the bedside table. It read seven o'clock.
She jumped, realizing how late it was getting. She scrambled for the door, nearly knocking over the pile of cardboard boxes in the process.
Her Mom was just closing the front door when she jumped down the stairs. "Oh, Mom! So sorry I took so long- I didn't mean to. Got carried away. I'm all done though!" she rushed on to say.
Her Mom smiled brightly. "Don't worry about it, June." She held up the box she was holding. "Pizza's here!" she moved towards the kitchen, June following close behind.
The two sat at the table, eating their pizza on paper plates. June's Mom was working on something on her phone, while June just wanted to go to bed. It had been a long day. Traveling nearly ten hours all night, then unpacking. She was exhausted, and it was only seven thirty! But then again, she had been up since three o'clock that morning, she had a good excuse for being so exhausted.
She really should stay up and type up another story for her fanfiction story, but she really didn't have the energy or will power to do it. Her story (in her eyes anyways) seemed very boring so far, so she wasn't sure if she really wanted to complete it anymore. She had just… run out of ideas. Gone caput. Zip. Zilch. Nada. NO IDEAS.
When she finished her pizza she stood up with her paper plate and went to dump it in the trash. "Hey, Mom? It okay if I go to bed?"
Her mother looked up from her seat at the table. "Go ahead, sweety. You must be extremely exhausted."
June nodded with a little smile. "Yeah, I am."
Her mother stood up and pressed a kiss to Junes forehead. "Night, June. Get a good night's rest."
June slowly made her way up the stairs, her feet seemed to drag with each step. She stepped into her new room, and smiled at how neat it was. She hadn't seen her room this neat in… well, never. She had never moved before.
June reached into her drawer and pulled out some pajama's. She then headed back out into the hall and down towards the bathroom. She hurriedly got dressed, then grabbed her Tooth brush from the rack and began scrubbing her teeth. She stared at her reflection, taking in her straight brown hair and dark brown eyes. She was a plain girl, and would never consider herself beautiful. Her mother insisted that she was indeed a very pretty girl, but June thought differently. She didn't mind her looks, although sometimes she wished she didn't have the small scar above her eye or that her mouth was a bit smaller. She wasn't very tall either- only 5'3". The one thing she liked about her was that she was no longer the scrawny little girl she used to be, but had filled out to be healthy, but still thin. She sighed again as she placed her toothbrush back onto the stand, turning to go.
June had never made friends easily, even at their old house where she had lived for the past fourteen years- her entire life until now. Her best friend had been her pony Pebbles, whom they had had to sell for June had outgrown her long ago. It had been a tearful goodbye, but June knew it was for the best. Pebbles would be ridden by children again, something the gentle pony had always enjoyed.
June crawled into her bed and under the covers, turning to click off the lamp. As soon as the room darkened, she dove under the covers. She stuck her nose above the covers, staring up at the ceiling, a fear suddenly taking hold of her. She was a freshman in high school, so it would be easier to adjust, but they were jumping in right in the middle of the school year. What if no one liked her? What if she became the "little outcast?" She didn't know anybody… oh it would be so hard. Not to mention she didn't really get into sports… she enjoyed reading and writing more than anything.
June felt the need to cry as she thought about it. She rolled over and stared at the posters on the wall. Her eyes fell on the one of Race to the Edge. Everyone- including the dragons- were crowding into the small space of the paper. It was made to look like Hiccup was taking a selfie with everyone crowding in, smiling.
She smiled as she looked at all the HTTYD things that crowded her room. "Man, I wish I lived back then. Imagine getting to meet Toothless? He's just so cute… like a giant cat…" her eyes fluttered as her sleepiness got the better of her. Soon her eyes drifted shut with the image of the dragon riding Berkians in her mind.
…
"Hey…. Wake up… you okay?" someone said. The voice sounded familiar to June, but in her drowsiness, she couldn't pin point who it belonged to. It was a feminine voice, but wasn't her mother's…
"Brrrrr…" something cooed… that sound, too was familiar. But she still couldn't figure out who it belonged to.
She felt someone shake her shoulder slightly, and she groaned in sleepiness. She lifted up her hand to swat the hand away.
"Mom… go way…" she mumbled, reaching up to pull the blanket back over herself. To her surprise, she couldn't find her blanket.
She blinked her eyes open, surprised by how bright it was out. When her eyes adjusted, she jumped in surprise when she caught sight of green grass and underbrush.
She sat bolt upright, nearly smashing her head against who ever it was bending over her.
"What? Where am I!? Who are-" she stopped, when she saw who it was bending over her.
She stared, blinking for a couple of seconds, her mouth agape in shock.
Hiccup reached out, "Don't panic…"
But it was too late. Her eyes rolled into the back of her head and she fainted dead away.
Please tell me what you think, and if you want more! Thank you everyone!
Tootles!
