Jack and Hiccup went to a party at Astrid's. Jack wasn't giving out presents, and most understood. It wasn't like the Guardian of winter had money to buy stuff anyway. Jack was only around during winter, which was 9 months a year, but he didn't get paid to make it snowy or clod. It was just his job. It was also his job to leave randomly when the other Guardians needed him.
Hiccup gave out his gifts. Astrid loved the flowers and gave Hiccup a kiss on the cheek, to which Jack glared. Fishleggs loved the chocolate, but was cautious around his dragon because she was allergic. Snoutlout liked the axe well enough to throw it at Hiccup. Hiccup, fortune, was easily able to move out of the way. Snoutlout could never hit a moving target. Toothless swallowed the fish, and then tried to give some back to Hiccup. It was gross and cute at the same time. The worst was that Hiccup had to eat a bite of it. The twins fought over which stones were theirs, and started throwing them. Maybe the rocks hadn't been a good idea.
As the evening died down; Jack and Hiccup snuck away to give each other their presents. Though Hiccup had given a little money to Jack so he could get him something if he wanted to, he didn't really expect anything though. The walked upstairs and into Hiccup's bedroom. They sat side by side on the bed.
"I just want-" The started in unison. "No you go first…No you…Okay" They continued, Then laughed.
"Close your eyes. I want to give you something." Jack said, smiling. Hiccup looked suspiciously at Jack. "Come on, close 'em. It's a surprise." Jack said laughing at the look hiccup gave him. Hiccup sighed and closed his eyes. "Kay, open them." Jack said after a minute.
Hiccup looked around and didn't see anything. He heard Jack laugh, and rubbed the back of his head; only there was something around his neck. Jack had managed to put a Multi-color blue scarf around Hiccup's neck without him noticing. The colors were knitted together, and almost looked like the snow in the sunlight.
"I thought you might like it when you go flying, so you won't get cold." Jack explained. "There was a very nice lady at the shop that taught me how to knit. I met her when she closed the store, and she taught me the basics. I did my best. Do you like it?" He asked hesitantly.
"Like it? I love it! Jack, thank you. I only wish my gift was half as good." Hiccup said, then he pulled something out of one of his coat pockets. "Here this is for you."
