"Hiccup! Where the heck is my backpack?" A young girl yelled, gallumphing heavily down the stairs.
"I don't know! Check in my room."
"Why the heck would it be in there?" She yelled, darting into Hiccup's room, and heard Hiccup's yell echoing around the house.
"You were gaming last night remember? When I fell asleep!"
"Oh yeah. Got it! Come on let's go!" She jumped on the banister and shot downwards to the door, getting to the door before Hiccup. Hiccup struggled with his shirt, trying to get it over his head and failing. The young girl, who had flowing black hair and a face almost exactly the same as Hiccup's only her nose wasn't as big as his, stared at him with her arms crossed and an amused expression on her face. She poked his bare stomach and said,
"Aw, does the great big bad boy need help with his shirt?" She teased and Hiccup glared at her over the collar of his shirt.
"You know I'm not a bad boy, and yes I would like some help." The girl rolled her eyes and pulled down his shirt, tucking it in and straightening it.
"You are considered a bad boy by us girls. You used to be. Why'd you stop?" She asked and Hiccup tugged his collar.
"You know why." The girl rolled her eyes and quick as a flash slid her hand under his shirt and goosed his ribs. Hiccup yelped and jerked away, glaring at her, who was laughing hard.
"Stella!" He scolded, and she put her hands on her hips, raising her eyebrows and a mischievous smirk growing on her lips.
"Okay okay. Maybe you don't like me tickling you, but too bad!" She jumped towards him and he yelped, running out the door, Stella grabbing the keys and her purse on the way out, looping it around her waist and flying after Hiccup, pursuing him all over the yard back to the car, where he slid in and Stella slid in after him.
"Well? We going to the last day of school or what?" Stella said, looking over at Hiccup innocently.
"How-do you...not be out of..breath!" Hiccup gasped, and Stella grinned.
"I run all the time! I know you work out, but you don't run enough. Come on let's go already!" She tossed Hiccup his keys and he glared at her, to which she giggled and batted her eyes innocently.
When they got to the school, Stella and Hiccup ran to their classroom and slid into their seats just before the bell rang. They tried not to giggle when the whole class looked at them, and stared up at the teacher, afraid of breaking into laughter. After the last class in the day, Stella ran energetically and slid to a stop outside of the lockers, slamming into her own and almost running into her friends, Anna, Merida and Rapunzel.
"Whoa Stella slow down!" Anna laughed, helping her friend stand up.
"Sorry! Can't really! Too excited about no more class for the rest of my life!" She laughed, twisting her locker open and throwing her backpack in her locker. She grabbed her suit of clothes out of the locker and darted with her friends to the changing rooms.
"Hiccup, you are the exact contrast of your sister." Hiccup's cousin, Snotlout, pointed out Stella, darting and speeding across the hall, and Hiccup grinned, shrugging as he put his backpack into the locker and carefully pulling out the graduation suit Stella had put in a week ago. He took it to the girls' changing room where Stella was waiting impatiently.
"Finally!" She exclaimed, grabbing his suit and whisking inside left him waiting outside. Hiccup stood awkwardly outside and waited for her to come back out and nodded nervously to each girl that passed him, going into the changing room.
"Hey Hiccup." A beautiful voice made him turn and he saw the school beauty, Elsa Winters, sister of Anna, Stella's best friend and confidant. Hiccup had been sort of dating Elsa for two years; no one ever approached Elsa that was male and had intentions, and no girl ever approached Hiccup; also Stella beat up any girl that dared interrupt Hiccup and Elsa's intimate relationship.
"How are you?" She asked, and leaned against the wall next to him.
"I'm fine, pretty glad to be done with school." Elsa laughed softly and Hiccup grinned a funny half smile.
"Stella looks pretty excited." Hiccup laughed and Elsa smiled.
"Yeah, she is. Really excited. She's dangerous to be around when she's this happy though." Elsa giggled, and Stella suddenly appeared in the doorway, Hiccup's graduation suit neatly ironed and ready. It was somewhat surprising that someone so excitable and hyper as Stella, and uncoordinated, could be so talented and good at ironing and other talents. She shoved the suit at Hiccup and didn't notice Elsa standing next to her brother.
"Be careful about standing up in that thing because you know that you aren't used to wearing a skirt which is dumb you really should have practiced or something a few times before graduation and I really wish I didn't have to wear that dorky hat I guess I have to though cause it's tradition oh, El- oh great." She face-palmed and muttered,
"I was rambling wasn't I?" Hiccup chuckled and she punched his arm, making him wince and rub his arm.
"Sorry Elsa. So...bye!" She disappeared back into the room and Elsa laughed, asking,
"Is she always like that?"
"Just about. Especially on special occasions." Elsa shifted to where she was closer to Hiccup, and in the doorway unseen by them Stella watched them, waiting breathlessly to see if they kissed. They didn't, and Elsa went over to the doorway, not seeing Stella as she darted behind the doors and hid. She held her breath, then blew it out in relief as she entered a changing area. She quickly changed into her own graduation outfit, putting her long black hair in a french braid resting on her back, and hurried to the stage with Anna and Merida, making it in time to the stage where the graduates were awarded their degrees. Afterwards, Stella changed into a loose short sleeved shirt with butterflies and super novas on them, blue tights with a blue mini skirt with swooping design of stars and butterflies, and she ran across the school yard with Anna, Rapunzel and Merida, shouting,
"FREEDOM!" Then Stella led the foursome towards Elsa, Hiccup and Jack Overland, Merida shouting once they were within hearing range,
"Oi! Lovebirds!" Hiccup and Elsa slowly turned and saw Stella and Anna running towards them full speed. Stella crashed into Hiccup, Anna rammed into Elsa, who had been expecting this, and she grabbed her, turning so that she wouldn't fall. Stella crashed into Hiccup so hard that they both landed on the ground, Stella on top of Hiccup. Stella laughed and giggled, then put her hands above Hiccup's shoulders and Hiccup put his hands on her waist, waiting for her to get up.
"Hi." She said, and Hiccup replied,
"Hi. How's it going?" Stella looked sideways as if contemplating, then said,
"I'm good. You?" Hiccup furrowed his eyebrows and then said,
"Good. Uh, you want to get up now?" A smirk that was extremely devious grew on her face and she replied,
"Nah. In a bit." She laughed and got up, then extended a hand to Hiccup, pulling him up somewhat roughly, making him fall forward onto her.
"Gosh Hiccup! Get some balance, dude." Jack joked, and Stella froze. She helped Hiccup stand up straight, then turned to Jack, her fist clenched, and swung at Jack, only to be stopped by Hiccup.
"Stella, relax! It's okay!" Hiccup said, trying to calm his sister. Stella shoved him off and tackled Jack to the ground, hitting him as she yelled,
"Don't you EVER insult my brother!" Merida and Anna pulled her off Jack and she jerked her arms, releasing herself from their grip, muttering as she did,
"I'm fine, I'm calm, I'm good." Jack got up, wiping the blood from his nose, and Stella glared at him, then turned away, starting to walk away, then turned and jerked Jack forward, punching his mouth, then walked away, clenching her arms to her sides, and muttering about jerkfaces. Jack groaned as he rubbed his face, and Hiccup started chuckling. Jack glared at him, and Hiccup chuckled,
"You really don't know to not diss Stella. You know the consequences now." Jack wiped the blood away again, and muttered,
"Yeah I do. I'd better go get this fixed, see ya later." Merida, Anna and Rapunzel came over to Hiccup and Elsa and Merida laughed,
"Yer sister really can fend for herself, eh laddie?" Hiccup shook his head and said, sighing as he looked after his sister, who was racing with some other girls.
"She also sometimes acts before she thinks." Anna shook her head and crossed her arms.
"She is protective. That wasn't ruthless non-thinking actions, that was protectiveness." Elsa smiled softly and said,
"You should know." Anna poked Elsa's ribs and she shrieked, jerking away and bumping into Hiccup. She jumped away and brushed her long bangs away from her face.
"Sorry." She looked down at the ground, and the other girls shared a glance, slipping away quietly.
