-Jack's P.O.V.-

Why did this have to happen to Hiccup?! He doesn't deserve this at all. With his mother dying already and seeing her die and even worse having his dad beat him. Yea, I figured it out without him saying a word, but he does have some bruises and winces sometimes and where else would they have come from. I haven't told anyone yet, but I was actually planning on asking him tomorrow about it to find out the truth. I actually found out on his very first movie night with us.

-Flashback-

The very last bell of the day rang and I ran to the front of the school to meet up with Hiccup so he could come over for movie night. Apparently his father was back and was going to spend the day with some friends so he locked the house when he left and Hiccup doesn't have a key yet. I waited at the bottom of the steps and saw Hiccup come out two minutes later. When he reached the ground I grabbed his arm and started to drag him away from the crowd and toward my house, "Jack!" Hiccup exclaimed a second later, "Please never do that again! I almost punched you in the face!"

"Sorry," I apologized, "I'm just really excited for today. It's your first movie night EVER with us!"

Hiccup just smiled and started walking by my side as I let go of his wrist, "I'm excited to. Do you know when Merida and Rapunzel are going to arrive?"

"Merida's coming at about four and Rapunzel is going to come thirty minutes after. We usually do homework before picking a movie and maybe playing some video games."

"So we have an hour to do whatever we want?"

"Yep. So what do you want to do?" Hiccup smiled.

An hour later Merida came into my room to Hiccup and I playing Mario Kart yelling at each other. "I thought we were a team!" I yelled at Hiccup, "So why did you just red shell me?!"

"You were in the way," Hiccup answered simply, "Hey Merida, how are you?"

I turned toward the door and saw Merida come in and set her backpack on my bed, "Hey red. Wanna play?"

"Jack, you might want to watch the screen," Merida warned, "Your falling towards last place." Jack whirled around just as Hiccup won.

Hiccup smiled, "I won," and Jack frowned.

"Oh, come on!" Jack whined, "I got distracted! I call a rematch!"

"Alright, but this time Merida joins."

"Actually Punzi is going to be here any minute so we should begin our homework."

Jack grumbled as Punzie came in the room saying, "Who's ready to do homework?" They decided to do math last so they could do the easy stuff first.

Thirty minutes later Hiccup pulled out his art book while everyone else pulled out their math book. "Hiccup," Merida said when she noticed what Hiccup was doing, "We're doing math, not art."

"I finished math in class," Hiccup responded, "Why? It wasn't that hard."

"Could you teach me then?" Jack asked, "I didn't understand anything the teacher said."

"Sure," Hiccup then helped them finish in ten minutes, "So, what movie are we going to watch?" Hiccup asked when they were finished.

At one in the morning I was woken by someone talking on the phone, "I'll be home at nine...It's finished….ok...bye," They hung up and sighed. A flashlight came on and I saw Hiccup awake with his shirt off. That is when I saw the bruises, cuts, and there was definitely a broken rib or two. "Father, I thought you wanted to keep this hidden," Hiccup said, "But you still don't care about what happens to me," That is when I noticed how skinny he was. Was his father abusing him? What about food? When I find out who did this to him then they are going to get hurt. Hiccup luckily answered that for me, "Why do you hit me father? What did I do to make you ignore me entirely? These are some questions that will never be answered."

Is he writing this down? I asked myself. Hiccup slowly put his things away, turned the light off and went back to sleep. I didn't sleep the rest of the night, instead I thought about what Hiccup has had to go through his whole life.

-End Flashback-

I have slowly been gathering proof that his dad abuses him. When I learned his mother died in front of him, I was even more determined to help him get away from his house. I even thought that my life was difficult, with being adopted and not knowing my true family, but then I think of Hiccup and think that I have it easy. Ever since that movie night I have been happier with my adoptive family. I don't play as many pranks and I do my best to listen to North more. I just hope Hiccup gets through this alive.
