Hiccup walked through the doors of the school news room, he was met with the daily chattering of voices, typing of keyboards, the beeping of the copy machines, all of it was usual to him. After all he did spend three years doing the same thing back in Burgess. Walking through the cluster of busy people, he came to his red headed friend. Smiling brightly he tapped her shoulder and said "Hey Merida!" before the girl turned to face him.
The girl turned and a smile went across her face as she pulled Hiccup in for a hug "Hiccup!" she said then let go of him "How's the school treating you?" She happily asked "It's been great, aside from the bullying and harassment I've been getting because of my 'condition'" he said referring to his ever fun to talk about 'sexual preference'
It had just been a week since he moved back here to Berk, after spending four earlier year in Burgess. When his parents told him that they were going back, he was happy to say the least. He was excited to see his old home, friends, families and start at a new school. All of that confidence was hindered the moment he decided to let everyone in on him being gay.
He wanted so much to forget about his old life back in that city. For one reason 'Jack Frost', that was the name of his so called 'boyfriend'. They met two years ago in a camping trip, they started off as goofy friends, but it became more eventually, on the last day of the trip Hiccup did something he was soon to regret, he slept with him. He regretted that to this day because right after they were done, Jack said that they couldn't be together and how he didn't want a relationship with him then left him.
He spent weeks in his room moping about how pathetic and stupid he was that he let something like that happen. He found out later that Jack moved away to someplace else. Hiccup's parents became worried for his well being, they found out what happened when he told them, leaving out the name of course, his father was so over protective, that if he found out someone fooled around with his son and din't do anything about it, the culprit would be either dead or really close to it.
So he just explained how much he couldn't handle his life in Burgess, how it reminded him too much of his stupidity, so they moved back to Berk. They moved back right in the middle of the semester, Hiccup was really lucky. he was able to still get in at the time. So he filed his paperwork and entered Berk Integrated University.
The last time he went to school here it was in the sixth grade, now a college freshmen Hiccup reconnected with his old friends Merida and Tintin, both of the two were cousins. But that just made it easier for Hiccup to talk to the budding and wonderful Tintin, with his fun, brave and sassy friend Merida along side him.
Merida frowned at what Hiccup said, ever since they met, she constantly protected him "Want me to do something about it?" she offered preparing her fists. "No thanks, I got through most of my life with it, I can mange a few more years" he sadly said.
Merida just took an inhale "What brings you here?" she asked. He groaned "UGGGHHH your cousin, editor-in-chief wants my ass" he said while acting like he was a victim of slavery. Merida was shocked as her eye grew wide at that statement
"He finally told you?" she asked with a certain amount of enthusiasm.
"What? what are you talking about?" he asked raising an eyebrow at her
"Ughh? nothing! what are you talking about?" she crossed her arms as she tried to turn the tables
"I'm talking about how your cousin wants to see me" he replied
"If you only knew how much that were true" she mumbled silently to herself while grinning
"What?" he asked again
"Nothing, go see him" she quickly replied, then gestured to the door of the editor in chief. Hiccup gave her a confused look before shaking his head at her, then went and knocked at the door to see his friend. "Come in" a voice replied.
"Tintin?" he asked as he poked his head through the door. Hiccup saw Tintin's reaction "AH! Hiccup!" Tintin said as he tried to move from his desk, when he did however he accidentally tipped over the box of office supplies that he was carrying, spilling its contents to the floor "Oh good lord" he said then went to pick up the things he dropped, rulers, pencils, papers putting it back in the box.
Hiccup then pushed the door and let himself in, he couldn't help but grin at the display of Tintin making a fool of himself, when you look at ginger haired young man you wouldn't expect him to be such a cluts. Tintin was a gorgeous red headed, blue eyed, athletic, respectful,gentlemen like and confident young man. He made editor-in-chief in just his first year of college, he had perfect grades, perfect attitude, perfect face, yet whenever he was around Hiccup all of it was somehow forgotten. He didn't understand why the guy would be so nervous
When Tintin finally pulled it all together he smiled at Hiccup then gestured to a chair in front of his desk "Take a seat" he said
Hiccup smiled back and did so "So, what's my first assignment chief?" he asked
Tintin sat across the opposite side of the desk while giving an unsure smile at him "Let's talk about something else first" He said.
"OH! okay what about?" Hiccup asked
"Uhm? how-? how's it been? how are you adjusting coming back here?" Tintin stuttered
"Well? it's been?...nice to say the most" Hiccup said sadly
"Whats's wrong? Is something the matter?" Tintin said worryingly to his little friend
"Nothing I can't put up with" He said reassuringly at him
Tintin sighed and relaxed his shoulders at that "It's good to know you're able to put up with such things" he said
"Yeah" They both drifted into a few moments of silence. One not wanting to interrupt the other one. But that's when Tintin finally spoke up
"Hiccup?"
"Hmm?"
"You know...the Fall formal dance is in a few short weeks right?"
"Yeah?"
"Do you?... plan to go?" He nervously asked while fiddling with his thumbs
"I think not, it's just I don't feel comfortable enough to" Hiccup said as he flattened his lips
"Hiccup, we've...known...each other for quite some time haven't we?"
"Yeah! of course we have" Hiccup said, curious as to where this conversation was actually going
"Well?...I was ...wondering...if you would like toooooooooo" Tintin didn't stop at that syllable. Tell him you fool! Tell him! tell him now! Tintin was ordering himself to, still he was stuck at the 'tooooo'.
Hiccup had enough as he calmly spoke up and said "To what Tintin?" he finally managed to stop the guy.
Tintin tried, he really did, he wanted to tell this boy so much, but he couldn't, for some reason he couldn't "To...hear your assignment now" Tintin let his head fail.
"Oh! Okay then" Hiccup said. Tintin then proceeded to his drawer and got a folder then gave it to him
"The fall formal dance will award one student the most 'eligible bachelor award', you're assignment will be to interview the candidate most likely to win it" Tintin explained as Hiccup went through the folder that held the questions that were needed to be asked.
"Sounds easy enough, mind telling me who it is?" Hiccup asked
"Uggh? the quarterback of the football team, a white haired chap by the name of Jack Frost"
