Hey reader. Thanks.
It was the day. The day that had to go perfect. If it didn't, well then, Hiccup's head might explode. It was his wedding day after all. He remembered how Jack proposed.
"Come on Hic!" Jack laughed. Hiccup's glared back at the edge of the pond.
"Nah, I'm good." Hic sat down in the snow bank. Jack skated over to Toothless and whispered something. Toothless ran over. The massive Labrador kept prodding him until he was forced to stand up.
Hiccup half butt scooted half skated across to where Jack was. "You've turned my own dog against me!" His smile was full of mirth. This must be important if Jack not only dragged Hiccup in the middle of the woods, but got Toothless to help him.
"It's only because I love yoooouuu." Jack crooned. "Now come on. I want to show you something. " Jack grabbed Hiccup's hand and skated across the pond. They spun and danced as they flew across the ice. Hiccup was less than graceful, but Jack didn't care, so neither did he. They came to a sudden stop in the middle. Jack stared at Hic with such intensity and too much eye contact it caused the auburn boy to look away.
"Oh Jack." Hiccup's eyes began to water. Their dance engraved the ice into the words 'Will you marry me?" It was the cutest thing Hic has ever seen. It turned to Jack, who was already on one knee. Hiccup tried to say yes, but choked up. It took a moment but he finally got it out, "Yes. A thousand times yes!" He wrapped his arms around Jack, tears of joy salting their kisses.
Hiccup snapped out of his memory. His hands nervously straightened his tux. Show time. Toothless paraded down the aisle tossing rose petals everywhere. Hiccup was shaking while walking looking everywhere but Jack. It was like eating food, how you save the dessert for last. Astrid was standing in a blue dress, smiling for once. On Jack's side stood Bunny, once they made eye contact he gave Hic a small nod. Then Jack. Oh, man. Jack had a blue suit, his long pants still showed off his toes. Barefoot. Hiccup snorted. He didn't expect anything different.
Jacks eyes looked forward at Hiccup and never left. Throughout the ceremony they smiled at each other, until it came to the vows. Jack pulled out a piece of crumpled paper and let out a breath Hiccup didn't realize the brown eye boy had been holding. "Hiccup. You are my everything. My light, my hope, my love. I love you so much that I would even wear shoes for you!" that got a laugh as Jack shoved the paper back into a pocket. He took the Auburn boy's hands and looked him in the eye, "I would do anything for you."
"Jack. I can't describe what you mean to me. I love you more than drops of water in the sea and my love for you is bigger than the sky. I want to make plans with you. I want to see the world with you. I just want to be with you."
"You may now kiss the groom." The priest smiled. Jack and Hiccup got closer and closer until they almost brushed lips.
Hiccup snapped out of the dream. Tears blurred his vision and his throat swelled shut. That dream again. Hiccup looked over to the empty side of the bed. When Jack asked Hiccup to marry him, he didn't check the ice that day. It cracked. Jack saved Hiccup, but it cost him his life. He died. When help came it was too late. His brown hair was covered in frost making it appear white. His brown eyes had their chocolate color stripped from them, leaving them blue. The examiner said it was because of some chemical reaction.
The worst thing was that Jack never got to hear Hiccup's declaration of love. He missed him. He missed him so much.
Hiccup just wanted to be with Jack.
You hate me. Don't you. Sorry. I really truly am.
