OH my god I absolutely loved writing this chapter (THE FEELS ASDFJGHJKL). The song is You Are In Love by Taylor Swift. This chapter is so short, but i really love this chapter so please enjoy! (also, this is from Jack's POV again.
You Are In Love
Jack's POV
I stood by the door, watching Hiccup leave, not facing Emma.
I heard her voice, "You know what I see when I look at you guys? Love. You guys love each other. I want that. I thought I had it with Sam."
I turned to her, and sat down with her, "You need to break up with him."
"No, Jack, he won't let me." She said, starting to cry again, "Tomorrow, he'll realize and he'll come apologizing, and if I don't forgive him he'll-"
"Emma. He doesn't deserve you. You'll find love. Not with him. That's a terrible relationship."
"What do you know?" she snapped, "You have it easy. You don't have to look anymore. You guys love each other," she said, her voice softening. "Wherever you go, people just know you guys are in love. You can feel in in the silence, and you can see it… even with the lights out. You guys have true love. I want that, Jack. I'm going to bed."
That night, I was lying in bed, thinking about what she said about me and Hiccup. We've told each other we love each other, but do we really mean it? Are we in love? I looked over to my bedside table and looked at my snow globe that Hiccup gave to me. I shook it and thought of that time we were dancing outside, in the snow. Who would do that? No one else. I remembered the time we drove out of the town, and stopped for coffee at midnight, then came home. No one would do that for fun. But I didn't care because I was with him. The next morning, it was Sunday. We had burnt toast, but I didn't care if it was burnt. It was okay anyway. I thought of all the nights we spent together. One time, he woke up with a strange look on his face. He paused and then said, "Jack. You're my best friend." And now I know, he is in love. I thought of all those times we stopped on the sidewalks to kiss, all the times we fought and talked… and all the pictures we have together.
I understood why Emma was fighting this war. She wanted love. She saw it with me and Hiccup.
The next day, I saw Hiccup.
The first think I said was, "I love you."
He said it back. "I mean it," I said.
"Me too." He replied.
Emma was right. We are in love.
