Chapter 1: First Meeting
Hiccup was at school early, he wanted to have time to figure out all his new classes. Today was his first day at Newbury High in Berk, a cold, snowy town that was small and obsolete. He hated it. As he walked down the hallway he tried to fix his unruly auburn hair from going over forest green eyes, but to no avail. His heavily freckled hands moved back down to grab his bag, which hung at his side. Hiccup was now on his fourth school in this year, why? His father moved from place to place, following his job wherever it might take him. This caused man troubles for Hiccup, like not being able to get friends or get into school activities that he wanted too. Of course though he was happy about moving to schools only because it meant that he would no longer be bullied at the previous school. It meant he had a whole free week to not have to be bullied, and it felt great. But he knew that sooner or later he would be bullied once more, though for the moment he breathed in that free air.
He walked down the empty halls, holding onto his bag and a sheet of paper with the room number for his classes. The class he was going to have this morning was Algebra II, and it sucked, because he had finished that class in his last school but they decided he should take it again to fill in the time. He grumbled slightly as a came to the door, it was open widely and was an ugly pastel blue. Slowly he walked in, taking in the small classroom. At least its organized, he thought looking at all the neat shelves and stacked papers. The room felt comfortable, which was nice, and he decided that he liked it.
"OH!" Hiccup jumped a tad, before turning around to confront the voice that scared him. "Hi! You must be Hamish?"
The woman that Hiccup turned to see was, to put it in simple terms, beautiful. She had shoulder length hair that was colored like a toucan, and she was very well built, around her neck was also a necklace of teeth. Interesting. He looked at her, calming his breathe before responding. "Yes. Most people call my Hiccup though, miss?"
"My names Mrs. Toothiana! It's a pleasure to meet you Hiccup, you may sit wherever you want, I don't assign seats." And with a giant smile she turned back to her desk and started to work on some papers.
Hiccup smiled softly also, then turned to walk to the back of the classroom; he took the seat in the far left corner, closest to the wide windows. He pulled out the notes and homework he was given last week as prep for starting school here, and then turned to look outside. The window was directly facing a courtyard filled with flowers and benches and even a pond. As he daydreamed the first bell rang loudly, and kids began to filter into the classroom. He didn't pay them any attention, avoiding everyone's eyes and staying locked onto the notes in front of him. Hiccup tensed as a few kids came and sat in the seats close to him, and he felt their eyes bore into his side. To be honest he wanted to turn and glare at them, it was rude to stare. With a sigh he let the thought go, and began to doodle on his paper.
"Cool drawing." A smooth voice said near his ear.
Hiccup jumped and slid out of his chair, his rear hitting the tiles and his eyes wide with surprise and fear. He looked up at made eye contact with striking azure eyes who were full of laughter. He then began to scowl as the boy standing above him offered him a hand. Without much though Hiccup grabbed it and allowed himself to be helped up.
"What the hell dude, you scared the shit out of me." He spat
"Sorry! Sorry! I guess I just wanted to come say Hi, new kid." The boy chuckled.
Hiccup didn't turn to look at him as he spoke again, with a steely edge, "The name is Hiccup, not 'new kid'."
"Ohhh…Hiccup? Weird name." The boy began to laugh
With a new insult in his throat, Hiccup turned to look up at the boy, finally actually looking at him. Other than his enrapturing eyes, his hair was stark white and his skin creamy. He had a lithe figure and was wearing gray jeans and a blue hoodie that was one size too big for him. Hiccup forgot about his insult and kinda just stared at him, to be honest the kid was absolutely gorgeous. A blush crept onto his face and he turned away, trying to hide it.
"Well….My names Jack. Jack Frost, and it's a pleasure to meet you Hiccup." Jack sat down in the desk next to him, watching him with a smirk.
"Yea, me too." Hiccup mumbled.
