Final Chapter folks
Stoick didn't know what to do and was lost in thought until he heard another moan from Hiccup. He held him tight until a familiar plant was spotted near the spring. A plant that with one touch in the thorns , Vikings get sick, but it wasn't really bad if you're a big buff Viking, unless if you're a hiccup, then it just means a high temperature and unconsciousness, but it's completely harmless ,unless you are an overprotective father like Stoick.
Vikings called and this plant the Sickly Flower and they can easily blend in to any area so their victim can touch them without notice.
Stoick turned to Toothless and instantly commanded him to blow that flower to ashes. Once the flower was gone in less than two seconds, Stoick was worrying his beard off until he heard Hiccup, for the first time in eight years moan," Dah...Daddy..."
He didn't know how to feel, overjoyed that he heard his son call him "Daddy" again or upset on how his son will react to what he just moaned. "I'm here Hiccup... Just.." Stoick began until Hiccup instantly woke up in shock on what he just moaned and cried," Oh gods !" " Dad, I'm so sorry!" "I-I didn't mean to call you that!" Stoick ,too shocked on what he just heard, pulled Hiccup close to him, giving him a small embrace."Shhh, it's okay son, you don't have to be sorry for anything, please tell me what happened between you and Snotlout that I saw you flying with Toothless, crying," he soothed ( at least try to.)
"I guess I was acting a bit like a worry ward and had the riders give their dragons until Astrid asked me why," Hiccup began but he didn't want to say more otherwise it'll lead to the real reason for all this." Keep on talking, you know that's not all,"Stoick commanded.
"Well after giving Astrid an answer, Snotlout brought up the fact of me acting like a mother and... He included mah...mom in his insults but I bet he wasn't thinking but it wasn't what really hurt," Hiccup continued until his father interrupted asking,"Then what was it that really hurt you ?"
Hiccup remained silent, he didn't want to answer so he ended up crying softly on his father's chest. "It's okay Hiccup, you can tell me. Don't be afraid , let it out," Stoick soothed until Hiccup was ready to saw what he had to say.
"It...it..it was about what you kept telling me about mom's safe return from her last quest, that to never lose hope, but I found out one day that you were lying." "That day when you had the meeting with the village, the same day when I stopped calling you 'daddy', I saw and heard what you assumed about mom, that she was...de..de...dead," Hiccup continued.
"How did you get in when no one even spotted you on that day of the meeting ?" Stoick questioned in concern. "Since I was very small for a five year old, there was hole on the side of the Great Hall big enough for me to get in and out , and I wanted to draw the Great Hall but I heard your meeting and everything else,including the deal you had with Mildew instead," he explained, trying to control tears from falling.
"Hiccup, I'm sorry for lying, I just didn't want to see you upset on a conclusion I made but to honest, I actually hated to just say your mother passed away. I was a fool to just throw lies to you ," Stoick apologized , holding Hiccup tighter. Well until Hiccup moaned, " Dad..can't breathe."
After releasing Hiccup from the death hug and apologizing, Stoick soon asked a question he really had in mind for eight long years. "Hiccup, why did you all of a sudden, stop calling me 'daddy' ?"
Hiccup stared at him for a minute and finally answered," After you made that deal with Mildew, I just couldn't be responsible for you getting overthrown, so I just decided to shape up." "Hiccup, I'll never blame you for could have happened, I'll be proud of you either way, no matter what," Stoick added after being surprised that his own son would force himself to be a Viking for the sake of his father.
After a few minutes of a father-son moment, the family decided to find an opening to get out of the cave as Hiccup was getting better from unconsciousness. Soon they were out and greeted by worried villagers and Snotlout who went up to Hiccup to apologize. "Sorry Hiccup, I guess I didn't know what it was like to not have a mom," Snotlout confessed ." Don't worry about it, you weren't thinking about what you were saying," Hiccup replied.
Later that night, Stoick went to Hiccup's room and found Hiccup putting updates on the Book of Dragons until he did something he didn't do for a long time.
"Dad?!""Hahahahahahah...Stop it ...hahaha... No fair, I was distracted...hahaha!" Hiccup laughed as his father tickled him since when Hiccup was about four, they would always do this every night, for fun. Toothless who saw this very amusing, decided to aid Stoick and tickled Hiccup even more.
Hiccup tried to get away but he ended up on his bed, curled up into a ball of uncontrollable laughter. Once the duo finally freed Hiccup from laughing, Hiccup got out from his bed and embraced his father tightly. "I love you..daddy," he whispered and Stoick hugged his son and answered back, "I love you too Hiccup, no matter what."
The Haddock house was in silence then, since everybody was already fast asleep, well except for Stoick, who happened to be laying on his bed, hoping for the return of his missing wife. So that one day, they will be a whole family once again.
There are more stories I make so don't worry, please review., thank you :)
