Chapter 6: One Unstoppable Force
Merida's POV
I twirled around the room as Rapunzel watched me.
After Hiccup actually noticed me, I've felt like I was higher than a dragon.
"So how long as you liked Hiccup?" Rapunzel asked.
"Since we first met. I just thought he was so handsome and heroic. But he sleeps around with women alot so he never notices me."
"Oh that's awful." Rapunzel said.
"But now he actually noticed me. It won't be long now."
"Who noticed you?"
Rapunzel and I looks to see Taylor walking into the room.
"Hiccup." Rapunzel said.
"Can you just imagine our first date?!"
I spun around and began imagining what would happen on that date.
There is music in the air, can you hear it?
It's in two, no, maybe three or maybe four
And I see me dressed in white
With two feet that feel so light
It's as though as they've never ever touched the floor
One dance, just you and me
Beneath the moon, beside the sea
One dance and it's happily ever after
One dance and you will see
We're not so different, you and me
Just us two, me and you
One dance
There are stars that fill the night, can you see them?
There are two, or three or gee, a million more
And I see you in their light
Oh, me? A dance? All right.
Just to move and glide with you across the floor
One dance, just you and me
Beneath the moon, beside the sea
One dance and it's happily ever after
One dance and you will see
We're not so different, you and me
Just us two, me and you
I would change who I am,
trade my bow for romance,
just to stand with you.
I would leap at a chance for a glimpse of a glance of one dance with you.
One dance, just you and me
Beneath the moon, beside the sea
One dance and it's happily ever after
One dance and you will see
We're not so different, you and me
Just us two, dream come true
One dance
One dance
I stopped dancing around. Rapunzel and Taylor looked at me.
"Merida, are you ok?" Taylor asked.
"Oh that's so romantic." Rapunzel said.

Hiccup's POV
I sat at the dock. After I ran into Merida this morning, I couldn't get her out of my mind.
She looked so beautiful. I didn't know what to do.
After Astrid died, I thought my love life was dead. Then Merida joined the team. She made my heart soar. But I didn't want to get attached. So I started sleeping around. Just to keep my feelings for her at bay.
But now I can't anymore. The way I felt made me want to have her. To make her mine. I wanted to start my love life once again.
Toothless walked over to me.
"Well bud, it's time to move on."
I've had my way with so many girls
An' was lots of fun.
My system was to know many girls
To keep me safe from one
I find it can't be done.
Just then, Snoutlout shouted out.
"Hiccup!"
I looked over. The boys were waving me over.
"You coming with us?" Tuffnut shouted.
"We'll paint the town red, Hiccup." Fishlegs said.
"Sorry guys I can't make it. I'm going on a date tonight."
They started cheering, then stopped.
"What?"
My defenses are down
She's broken my resistance
And I don't know where I am
I went into the fight like a lion
But I came out like a lamb.
My defenses are down
She's got me where she wants me
And I can't escape no how
I could speak to my heart when it weakened
But my heart won't listen now.
Like a toothless, clawless tiger,
Like an organ-grinder's bear,
Like a knight without his armor,
Like Samson without his hair.
My defenses are down
I might as well surrender
For the battle can't be won.
But I must confess that I like it,
So there's nothing to be done.
Yes, I must confess that I like it
Being miserable is gonna be fun
I began walking back up to base. The boys followed me, singing as I went.
His defenses are down
She's broken his resistance
And he's in an awful jam.
I went into the fight like a lion
But you came out like a lamb.
My defenses are down
She's got you where she wants you
And you can't escape no how
I could speak to my heart when it weakened
But your heart won't listen now.
Like a toothless, clawless tiger,
Like an organ-grinder's bear,
Like a knight without his armor,
Like Samson without his hair.
My defenses are down
You might as well surrender
For the battle can't be won.
But I must confess that I like it,
So there's nothing to be done.
Yes, You must confess that you like it
Being miserable is gonna be fun
The boys walked away when I got back to the base.
I walked up to Merida's room. I knocked on the door.
No answer.
I then heard something coming from Rapunzel's room. I went over and knocked.
"Hey Rapunzel, you in there?"
"Yeah, come in."
I opened the door.
"Hey, have you seen Mer..."
Rapunzel and Taylor was helping Merida into a white dress.
She looked beautiful. But her hair was pulled back.
"Can I talk to Merida? Alone?"
Taylor and Rapunzel giggled as they left the room.
"You look amazing." I said.
Merida blushed. "Thank you, Hiccup."
"But can I change one thing?" I asked.
She nodded. I walked up behind her. I pulled out the pins that held up her hair. Her wild red hair fell down to her shoulders.
"There. Much better." I said with a smile.
It was quiet for a sec. She just stood in front of me. The passion in the air was unbearable. It took all I had not to do something stupid.
"So Merida, do you want to have dinner with me tonight?"
"Yes, I would love to." She said as she turned around.
"Ok, then I'll see you tonight."
I walked out of the room. I went over to my room and sat down on my bed.
"Well Astrid, I'm moving on, just like you wanted."
And Yes, I'm a Mericcup Shipper as well.
