It's been a year since our first trip to Berk. And let me tell you one thing that definitely never changed. Our love for Berk. We are constantly talking about it and every little thing that reminds me of Berk sets me off. Like yesterday, Rebecca and I were hanging out with fellow fangirls and I spot her necklace. One of our friends (I can't remember who) hiccupped and I started laughing. We were at a park and I literally fell off a swing. Rebecca started grinning but then she couldn't contain herself anymore so within two minutes, we were both laughing. Our friends probably think we belong in a mental hospital.
Its June now and there's five minutes left of school. I had a feeling that something exciting was going to happen soon, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it (I have an amazing intuition). My music teacher, Mrs. Mahrs, is going on and on about different songs and melodies and such that were either written in summer or written for summer. But I'm sitting in my desk thinking, why do we need to know this? Its 3 minutes now. My class starts laughing at something Mrs. Mahrs said but I wouldn't know, I'm not paying attention. One minute! I start drumming my fingers on my desk and the girl next to me, Ashley (mental eye roll) gives me a dirty look. She thinks she's all that and is a goody-goody and smart. In actuality, I have met cats smarter than her. I stick my tongue out at her showing how childish I am. All fangirls are childish. She wouldn't understand, the little bitch.
The bell rings and I rush out of the room to Rebecca's class, but I could tell she would have the same idea minutes before, so we meet half way. She takes her iPod out of her bag and sticks an ear bud in one ear.
"What class were you in?" she asks me?
"Music, you?"
"Math," she fake gags. I like math. It's easy. "I hated Mrs. Mahrs," she says, rolling her eyes. I look at her as if I'm saying, You don't think I did?
"What are you listening to?" I ask her.
"Ave Mary A, by P!nk." I just nod.
"Do you think we'll go on another crazy adventure?" she asks. I hear a hint of something that sounds like hope and excitement.
"I hope," I say before laughing. "I don't think I could handle a normal summer after experiencing that." With Dragon, I think longingly. I kept thinking about him every day, and I kept my Sarafine scale on a bracelet that I wear 24/7. If the string breaks, I put it on a different one. We were distracted, so why should we have noticed the portal that formed in front of us?!
I wake up to the sound of Dragon's voice. "Is Roby there?" he asks Rebecca. I bolt up and run down the stairs.
"Who are you?" Rebecca asks with a bunch of suspicion in her voice.
"Dragon?!" I exclaim. I run and jump on him, but he catches me. "I missed you so much," I say into his shirt. Rebecca clears her throat behind me and I launch into the story of how Dragon and I met; him popping out of the woods, chasing Sarafine, him flirting with me, us kissing, us riding on his Zippleback named Jet, and then us promising to see each when I return. I saw Rebecca's eyes get shiny before she blinked.
She smirked. "And you never told me?"
I look at her. "Well, I thought there was enough drama with Hiccup, so I didn't want to be a bother."
She hugs me and says, "Roby, nothing would have been a bother, none of this is a bother," and she gestures to all of me. I laugh and say, "You just gestured to all of me."
"Yes I did. Now you are never allowed to say that ever again, and don't ask why because you know," she said smugly before running upstairs. Dragon grabs me from behind and spins me so I face him.
"I missed you too," he says before kissing me. We kept kissing for a long time. We didn't even stop when I heard Rebecca come downstairs and walk past us. I break off first because I'm not necessarily known for holding my breath. Dragon hugs me again.
"Well, Gobber kinda' needs me in the forge. I've been helping him a lot since Hiccup started the Academy. Bye," he says before kissing me on the cheek.
I slump my shoulders. "Bye, but do you really have to go? I just got here!"
He smiles. "Yes. Gobber really needs me!" Then he turned and walked away quickly before I could say anything else. I'm very bored without him so I decide to follow Rebecca. I knew she would be in the cove so I went there. By the time I got there, I see Rebecca in Hiccup's lap. Ha, and they're kissing too.
I walked into the clearing and coughed. Rebecca broke off and glared at me. I wave her over and she slides off Hiccup's lap and walks over. "What. Was. That!" I say in disbelief. It was pretty sweet though. She shrugged. "A kiss," she says casually. "What happened to Dragon?" she asks. I shrug this time. "He had to leave, but you and Hiccup and-" but she cut me off. "Toothless knocked my feet from under me, I landed in Hiccup's lap and the rest you saw."
I started to put the pieces together. "So Toothless caused this?" I ask confirming my theory. She nodded. My theory was confirmed!
"HE'S A SHIPPER!" I yell loud enough to make Rebecca start laughing and Hiccup to look at me in wide-eyed surprise.
Suddenly Rebecca's phone starts ringing. She walks a few feet and answers. I'm smiling because I'm just glad we're back. I like it here more than home.
Rebecca hangs up and stares at her phone along with me. "How the hell do I have reception?! I'm in a parallel universe!"
But we're back.
