Happy late new year! Hope you all enjoyed it.

Fair warning: I am in school and I need to pass, so I won't be posting as often as I would like... I blame homework.

This chapter is everyone else... I would have done them in separate chapters, but they didn't seem long enough so you get this semi-long, semi-short chapter. Thank you for all the reviews, if you have anything that could help my writing in some way then feel free to tell me.

Hope you enjoy this chapter!

I don't own anything.


-Normal P.O.V.-

Eleanor was not stupid. She knew who gave her daughter the advice and wanted to thank him properly. She now had a great relationship with her daughter and a better one with her boys. She found out when Hiccup was waiting for Merida to go to Rapunzel's house and he let it slip that he helped her. She will be forever grateful that he did, she just hoped she would be able to actually thank him.

Rapunzel's parents were crying and not trying to hold in the tears. Of course her mother was crying more than her father. They have been trying for as long as they can remember to get Rapunzel to start making decisions for herself and when she asked to get her haircut they asked what changed her mind. When she just said a new friend, they knew it was Hiccup. He was the only new friend that they knew about and were happy that their daughter was finally becoming her own person instead of relying of them. They wanted to thank him some way, but they couldn't think of anything.

Gobber couldn't believe how attached he grew to Hiccup in the month he has been there. He has opened up more and has amazing ideas and is smarter than he gives himself credit for. He knows more than the average person and should be proud of what he does. Gobber is impressed with what he thinks and what he can build. Gobber thinks of Hiccup as a grandson, but he never told him and he wishes that he will get a chance to.

Stoick has never felt this way about anyone since his only son was kidnapped. He never saw him again and after one year the police declared him dead. Hiccup even looked like him. Stoick even got help from him.

-Flashback-

-Stoick's P.O.V.-

I came by an hour early to pick up Gobber as I have been doing for a while now. The kid, Hiccup, has really grown on me. As I walked in I saw Hiccup leaning over my car, "Hi, Hiccup," I said.

Hiccup jumped and hit his head on the bottom of the hood, "Ow," Hiccup mumbled as he looked at me while rubbing his head.

"Are you alright?" I walked up to him.

"Yea, just a headache. So why are you here?"

"Don't I usually come at this time?"

"True, but what's wrong?"

"Nothing is wrong. Why would you ask that?"

He pointed right at me as I sat down on a stool nearby, "You look like your stressed, you seem really tense as well. So what's going on?" Hiccup started to work on my car again.

"Just things at work. It's nothing that you need to worry about."

"You could tell me why you're so stressed. I don't think it's about the things your doing."

I sighed, I can't seem to get anything past this kid, "Your right, there are some people saying that I have to do this and say there is no decision for me, but I don't agree with them."

"Well, you are the mayor. Not them, so you make the decision. You do what you think is best for the town. You can hear what others think, but it ultimately comes down to what you think is best."

Nothing was said until Gobber came barging out of his office saying, "Stoick! I'm glad you're here. I need to get home, my mother is coming!" Gobber then turned to Hiccup, "Could you lock up, Hiccup?"

"Yep, now you better go. You don't want to make your mother angry and come looking for you here."

"Has she done that?" I asked.

"Yep, then she dragged him out by the ear saying that she should have told him that he didn't have a car for a month." I walked out laughing and Gobber grumbling behind me.

The triplets wanted their bake buddy back. Hiccup has taught them how to make various cookies, mini cakes of all flavors, brownies, and various other desserts. It was during their first bake together that they realized how strong Hiccup was.

-Flashback-

When a knock came at the door Elinor answered and said, "Hello, Hiccup. Why are you here?"

"I'm here for the triplets first bake lesson," Hiccup replied.

"Oh, you don't have to."

"It's fine. May I come in?"

"Oh, sorry," Elinor moved out of the way and let Hiccup in, "If you will wait in the kitchen then I will go get the boys." Hiccup nodded and headed to the kitchen. When he got there he saw the triplets standing by the door to the kitchen with stools behind them.

Hiccup smiled, "You guys ready?" When the triplets nodded and ran into the kitchen with Hiccup following slowly he asked, "What do you guys want to bake first?"

"Sweet rolls," They all said at once.

Hiccup nodded, "Then let's get started," Hiccup rolled up his sleeves, revealing his scars and got everything they would need out.

Hiccup and the triplets were covered in flour, along with the kitchen, while staring at the oven waiting for the timer to ding. Thirty minutes later Hiccup grabbed a hot pad and pulled out the steaming sweet rolls and set them down, "Now while they cool down we should clean up from our flour war." The triplets smiled sheepishly and helped Hiccup clean up then went to clean up themselves. Once they got back Hiccup was getting three sweet rolls on three small plates. He turned around and said, "Dig in!" The three smiled and quickly ate the sweet rolls. After a few minutes of silence Hiccup asked, "I was wondering, you don't have to answer if you don't want to, but why don't you talk that much?"

The triplets looked at each other, then Hamish said, "We don't see the need."

"Why not?"

"Everything is said for us, well the truth is that people just say things for us," Hubert said.

"So we don't say anything even if we don't like it," Harris finished.

"If you don't like it then why don't you say something?" Hiccup asked.

"We don't want to fight anyone," Hamish answered.

"Your not fighting if your speaking your mind, your just giving your opinion."

"What if others disagree?" Hubert asked.

"Everyone has their own opinion, so someone will disagree. What you do then is find common ground. Find an answer that helps everyone, even if some people don't like it."

"So, its ok if you don't agree on everything?" Harris asked.

"No one can agree on everything. You can agree most of the time, but when you think you have a better way or want to give some input, then you should say something. Never keep your ideas inside. You can write them down if your too scared to tell someone, but you should always share your ideas some time."

The triplets looked at one another and nodded, smiling.

"Never be afraid to hold something back."

"Why do you talk quietly?" Hubert asked.

"What are you talking about? I already told you that I don't know."

"We know that you are lying. You can tell us the truth" Hamish said.

"You promise not to tell anyone?" Hiccup waited until the triplets nodded, "Well, I was abused a lot when I was younger and I yelled a lot. I kept on losing my voice until the doctors had to do some type of surgery on my vocal cords so I have to slowly build my voice up again. I also didn't talk very much after my mom died, so I haven't been able to talk loudly yet."

"Did the person that was abusing you go to jail?"

Hiccup smiled sadly, "No, but I was abused by teachers, peers, and others, so no one stood up for me." Hiccup looked at the clock and his eyes widened, "I better get going. See you later." Hiccup then left.

-End Flashback-

The triplets still don't talk that much, but they are talking more. They are even going to skip a grade because their parents are finding out how smart they are. They haven't told anyone what Hiccup told them either, but they desperately wanted to. They found out the next time they baked together that he was still being abused. They were going to tell someone at the end of the party, but the party never happened.
